Pokimane gets emotional in Paris

Pokimane was streaming alongside popular IRL streamer JakenbakeLIVE, when their stream came to its conclusion on Thursday, April 11.

As Pokimane and JakenbakeLIVE addressed the audience for the final time that evening, the pair discussed their time in Paris, France, when Jake began to play sad music as Pokimane thanked her viewers, and shared how happy and grateful she was to be able to share her trip with her fans.

“It just means so much to me,” an emotional Pokimane told her audience. “I’ve always wanted to come here. Oh my god, I’m actual going to cry. I’ve always wanted to come to Paris. I’m really, really lucky that my job allows me to do this, and to have it be a part of my work. I don’t know, it just felt really special to be able to share it with thousands of people.”
