Adin Ross Sparks Controversy with Dig at Pokimane Over Cookie Pricing

Adin Ross, known for his polarizing presence on the streaming platform and as a co-owner of controversial Kick, recently stirred the pot once again by taking aim at established Twitch star Pokimane. Their clash isn’t new, with their divergent fan bases and content styles fueling ongoing tension, particularly from Adin’s outspoken side.

During a recent appearance on Sean O’Malley’s YouTube podcast, Adin wasted no time in calling out Pokimane’s online behavior, which he characterized as attempting to “cancel” others. Pulling no punches, Adin Ross remarked, “She’s always been the one pointing fingers, trying to cancel people.”

The controversy escalated when Adin made another public jab at Pokimane during his discussion on Sean O’Malley’s channel. Referring to her as an example, he continued to criticize her alleged cancel culture tendencies. However, the conversation took a cringe-worthy turn when Sean O’Malley referred to Pokimane as “sexy,” prompting Adin to suggest sliding into her DMs, albeit with a warning.

But Adin Ross didn’t stop there. He went on to call out Pokimane’s recent venture into the food industry, particularly her Myna Snacks’ Midnight Cookies line. Adin took issue with the pricing of Pokimane’s cookies, claiming they were overpriced at $20 for a single cookie. While Adin’s statement may have been exaggerated, it reflects the ongoing scrutiny surrounding Pokimane’s cookie line, which launched in November 2023.

Indeed, Pokimane’s cookie venture faced backlash not only for its pricing but also for its resemblance to another brand, Toatzy Midnight Mini Cookie, which offered a similar product at a lower price point. Critics argued that Pokimane’s attempt to sell cookies at such a high price was out of touch with reality and exploited her fan base.

The clash between Adin Ross and Pokimane underscores the complexities of the streaming world, where personalities clash, controversies abound, and public image is everything. As the drama continues to unfold, fans watch eagerly to see if there will be any further fallout from Adin’s latest jab at Pokimane.
