Kaitlyn "Amouranth" Siragusa, one of the most well-known Twitch and Kick streamers, is once again at the center of controversy. In late February 2025, she sparked outrage following comments made during a livestream, which many perceived as homophobic.
Controversial Remarks Spark Outrage
During a recent Kick livestream, Amouranth criticized LGBTQIA+ activists, making a comment that they should have been present during the recent Los Angeles fires. This statement was widely condemned across social media, with many calling her remarks insensitive and offensive.
A Twitter user shared a clip of the stream on February 28, 2025, igniting widespread backlash from both fans and critics. Many expressed their disappointment, urging her to reconsider the impact of her words.
“I Own All the McDonald's in My City” – Amouranth’s Bold Claims
Amid the controversy, a Twitter user mocked Amouranth’s declining Twitch viewership, suggesting she should start working at McDonald's. In response, she fired back, claiming:
"If I ever put fries in a bag, it'll be a publicity stunt—because I own all the McDonald's in my city."
This bold statement led to further discussions, with some questioning the validity of her claim and others defending her as a savvy businesswoman.
Community Reactions
The controversy has left social media divided:
- Some fans argue that she is entitled to her opinions and that criticism is overblown.
- Others believe her comments were insensitive and damaging, urging her to apologize.
As of now, Amouranth has not publicly addressed the backlash in detail.
