Amouranth Has Entered the Chat

Amouranth Has Entered the Chat

Penthouse Comics: We hear you are a cosplay enthusiast; what is your favorite cosplay you ever concocted? I thought your Spider-Gwen was really spot on (especially with the teal throwback jelly sandals!). You could play her in a movie. The Kim Possible fit was an awesome blast from the past as well! What do you have to say to the trolls that say you're someone that just dresses provocatively to get clicks and are not a proper cosplayer?

AM: I love the tracer cosplay (from overwatch) and also Spider-Gwen! I have at times been extremely meticulous about "accuracy" in cosplay -- but ultimately figured that popular/fan service-y cosplays got a better reception! I love both intricate cosplays AND ones "by popular demand!”

PC: What do you like most about creating ASMR content? What got you to incorporate that genre into your lineup? I've always been kind of on the fence about whether I enjoy ASMR content or not, mainly because my initial introduction to the genre was some of the more *ahem* cringy sub-categories. Are there ASMR subcategories you don't care for?

AM: I like experimenting with new triggers and sound sensations. The only asmr that I don't really like personally is "food" or eating asmr -- though I have tried it on many occasions!

PC: You have an impressive portfolio of income streams and assets! From buying a gas station and an inflatable pool toy company, to playing matchmaker for content creators and personal assistants, to earning millions on OnlyFans. Tell me, have you reached your goal of surpassing Bill Gates in land ownership yet? Do you have any other interesting ventures you want to tell us about? You're a busy woman!

AM: Haha I'm still a ways off from surpassing Bill Gate's land holdings. I maybe buying a stake in an esports team and/or content creation house. I also have an energy drink company brewing... and of course the V Beer!

PC: I was informed that you hosted a health and wellness event on... Chaturbate? How does that work?

AM: It was an address & Q&A for fellow creators and aimed at "sustainable" lifestyle strategies for people who happen to find themselves in an adult or adult adjacent space!

PC: You've been banned from several streaming and social sites, for several reasons, and even had your ad revenue revoked and then returned at a reduced rate with little explanation. Do you think the content creation and streaming industries need better regulation and more transparent guidelines?

AM: I had my ad revenue revoked briefly on twitch about a year or so ago! My YouTube ad revenue (across all channels) is basically zero. I do wish there were more clear guidelines for what is considered "acceptable content." 

PC: How do you handle negative comments and negative press?

AM: I try to avoid reading it when possible -- or remind myself that any hate or vitriol is from a vocal minority! 

PC: You have an INSANE amount of followers! Have you ever had a super weird interaction with a follower?

AM: I have -- the worst are the few instances where someone physically shows up at my residence or a previous residence -- these borderline stalker situations are terrible.

PC: You’ve had such interesting ideas for streams that got shot down, either by yourself or someone within your team, like where you thought about sleeping in the hot tub on stream or another where you were going to have a coffee-filled hot tub stream. Is there anything else that’s been shut down for one reason or another?

AM: I have always tried to be innovative and experimental when possible! most of the ideas that get left on the cutting room floor have to do with potential ToS issues or rules. I am considering doing in-real-life dating streams while wearing a Vision Pro though, haha!

PC: Back in June you signed a non-exclusive platform deal with the streaming platform, Kick, for an estimated $7m annually. With this new age where there isn’t just one streaming platform for creators, what do you look for in a platform in order to bring your content to them?

AM: I am looking for forward-looking platform partners who are willing to experiment and proverbially "get out of the way" for creators to experiment and try new things (within reason!) 

PC: A while back you opened up about how you aim for life to look like post-streaming. That of course involves rescuing dogs and horses and potentially having your own sanctuary. What an incredible idea! I read somewhere that you have fifteen animals currently? It’s incredible that you are able to balance that with your streaming career currently. How are you able to seamlessly balance everything?

AM: That is correct! It takes a lot of work -- I typically follow a morning routine/before bed routine with animal care. I also rely on staff to help transport my animals to vet appointments or turning them out/letting them get exercise daily! 

PC: Privacy is obviously a major issue in today’s streaming world with you recently saying that you get swatted at least ten times a year. That number is terrifying… has there ever been a moment where you questioned streaming any further due to concerns over privacy?

AM:  Yes! usually those situations are "one-off" and happen when I first move to an area or haven't encountered say the patrol officers in the area. Typically once they "understand the situation" subsequent swatting attempts are merely "check ups" vs Armed Forces... 

PC: Where do you see streaming in ten years from now? Whether or not you’re still involved at that point, do you still see that it’s as prevalent as it is today, or even more so? Do you see IRL streaming taking over more? Video game streaming decreasing?

AM: I think gaming will continue to be a mainstay in content -- but I think the category will also grow given wider broadband (and new technologies such as Starlink) lowering the hurdle required to stream high fidelity / real time video!
