Prominent streamer and content creator Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa posted a short video on X announcing that she may be leaving Kick to return to Amazon-backed streaming platform Twitch.
Amouranth is a popular name in the streaming world with a massive following that consumes her content. The streamer has been part of her share of controversies in both her personal and professional lives. She was last in the news because she apparently shot a burglar who had attempted to rob her. The content creator has also been in the news because of seeming personal issues with her husband.
Amouranth currently streams on Kick, but she has previously been Twitch’s most-watched female streamer and one of the platform’s biggest names overall. The streamer’s move to Kick may have had something to do with her being banned on Twitch 10 times. But greater revenue available on the platform could also have been an incentive. Regardless, after years of streaming on Kick, Amouranth has announced that she is returning to Twitch.
Amouranth shared that she is returning to streaming on Twitch after making $38 million during her time streaming on Kick.
Amouranth joined Kick in 2023 at a time when the platform was making massive deals with multiple streamers. For reference, Kick signed a non-exclusive deal with popular streamer Felix “xQc” Lengyel that was worth up to $100 million. Amourath’s Kick deal details aren’t known publicly, but the streamer did go on the record to state that joining the platform “doubled her income,” and it had been established that her streaming on Twitch was quite lucrative already.
Amouranth is now returning to Twitch after announcing her streaming platform change on X. In the tweet, Amouranth posted a video at a 7-Eleven gas station talking to someone on her cellphone. The streamer told the person on the other end of the phone that she was refueling and would be there soon.
At the start of the video, the Kick streamer was in a green car with a “Kick Com” license plate. The car changed to purple after a SpongeBob Squarepants meme was displayed, with the amount of money she’d since made being prominently mentioned in it. The car’s color change was both intentional and notable as it showcased that the streamer was returning to Twitch.
The video ended with Amouranth’s Twitch channel link being shown and the date of June 20 being displayed as her return date to the Amazon-backed platform. It’s unclear at the time of this writing whether the streamer will shift to Twitch exclusively if she’ll continue streaming on Kick as well.
Stake-backed platform Kick is marketing multistream content significantly and has stopped signing streamers to high-monetary exclusivity deals. Many popular content creators are now multistreaming on Kick and making significant money in doing so, a trend which Kick executives has boasted about for its apparent positive effect on the platform’s growth.
