5 Streams That Went Horribly Wrong

Twitch Accidentally Broadcast Hardcore Porn On Their Biggest Streamer's Channel

In August 2019, streaming superstar Tyler "Ninja" Blevins announced that he was taking his talents from Twitch to Mixer, a rival platform owned by Microsoft whose biggest claim to fame was its roster of big-name stars like, um ... Ninja. While it was clearly a great business move for Ninja and Mixer, it left Twitch with a massive problem. He was one of their most popular streamers, with approximately 14 million followers. If they didn't figure out a way to stem the bleeding, they'd have no option but to start selling Dr. Disrespect's bathwater to make up the shortfall, which is no life for anyone.

One solution was to convert Ninja's abandoned channel page into a switchboard that promoted other, lesser streamers to the masses still flocking to it. This proved to be a not-terrible idea, and they even included a little Mario joke about how Ninja was "in another castle" to show how definitely not-mad they were about the whole thing.

TwitchWeird how Peach is pointing directly at Luigi's dick. Oh well, that probably isn't prophetic or anything ...

Things were good ... until the page starting promoting out-and-out (and in-and-out) porn. Between three and five minutes later, the internet was up in arms over this filthy, filthy carnival of flesh, and Twitch soon pulled down not only the offending channel, but also the entire page, replacing it with a repository of Ninja's old videos. Twitch's CEO also took to Twitter to apologize to Ninja directly, while Ninja later released a video apologizing to his fanbase for the "disgusting" display.

Not to be outdone, Twitch apologized (again) for our horrible human bodies, and vowed to investigate how this feed was allowed to broadcast for so long without being picked up by the site's content filter. That last one's especially weird, given how Twitch can't stop bringing the "sexual content" banhammer down on everyone from women wearing gym clothes to SpongeBob. As for Ninja and Mixer, things are going swimmingly, thank you for asking.

A 20-Something Vlogger's Stream Glitches, Exposes Her As A CGI-Disguised 58-Year-Old

"Your Highness Qiao Biluo" was a vlogger in China with a 100,000-strong following. Her fanbase not only lavished donations on her, but practically worshiped the ground she streamed on. The secret to her success? Her personali- her looks, of course. We'd describe her as "unnaturally" pretty, but that foreshadowing is a little too blatant.

On July 25, 2019, Bilou was streaming with a fellow vlogger when, unbeknownst to her, her computer glitched and took down the CGI filter she had apparently been using to disguise her true appearance, thus revealing her as a middle-aged woman.

PewDiePie Tries To Do Something Decent, And His Fans Absolutely Hate It

Felix Kjellberg, aka PewDiePie, is by now nearly as famous for his screw-ups as he is for playing video games. In 2016, for instance, he received criticism over his constant racist "pranks," which included making "ironic" Nazi references, paying some people to make and hold up an "ironic" sign saying "Death to All Jews," and livestreaming himself calling someone the N-word.
