Popular Twitch streamer Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys has called out YouTuber Matthew ‘MMG’ Meagher for comments he made about the streamer in a video.

Meagher recently made a ‘Smash or Pass’ video about YouTubers, and when the topic of Pokimane came up, stated that he “hates her” and felt she was popular because people find her attractive, not because she is talented.

“It’s so obvious what she’s doing,” continued Meagher. “She’s not a titty streamer, you can’t put it that far. She’ll just pretend that she’s so oblivious to the fact that people watch her because she’s a hot girl, you know what’s happening here.”

Pokimane was then sent this clip, and reacted to the video while streaming. Anys was not impressed with the YouTuber’s comments, calling him out for what she felt was a hypocritical stance regarding her content.

“Wait a second. Can I just say, this dude is hating on me because people are attracted to the way that I look, and I don’t always outwardly talk about that,” stated Pokimane. “Yet he is doing smash or pass content. He is literally talking about whether or not he would have sex with other girls who didn’t even ask him.”

“How are you going to hate on me because people are attracted to me, yet you’re sitting here actually talking about whether or not you would bang random girls on the internet.”

Pokimane is one of the biggest streamers on Twitch with over 2.3 million followers. She also has an impressive 2.5 million subscribers on YouTube.

The popular content creator originally rose to fame while streaming League of Legends, but has seen huge success since making the switch to Fortnite Battle Royale.

Meagher has yet to comment on Pokimane’s reaction to his video, refraining from posting anything about the situation on YouTube or his social media accounts.
