Adin Ross, the popular streamer, has once again made headlines with his latest streaming stunt on Kick. In a bid to attract attention, Adin claimed to have interviewed North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, resulting in a record-breaking viewership of over 330,000 users. However, it quickly became apparent that the interview was a hoax, as Adin had hired an impersonator to play the role of the infamous dictator. As a result, viewership plummeted once the truth was revealed.
Despite the deception, Adin is likely to view this stunt as a success due to the attention it brought to his Kick channel. Even before the interview began, the viewership record had already been broken, and Adin has since been trending on social media. This achievement is not only a record for Kick but also a personal best for Adin, surpassing his previous highest viewership on Twitch.
While many streamers experience a decline in viewership when transitioning from Twitch to Kick, Adin has managed to maintain or even increase his audience. However, it is important to note that Adin has faced his fair share of controversies both on stream and on social media since joining Kick. These incidents have resulted in several streaming suspensions for the popular streamer.
Looking ahead, it remains to be seen how Adin will surpass this milestone and what kind of hoax he may come up with next. With his knack for attracting attention, it is likely that Adin will continue to push boundaries and captivate audiences on Kick.
