Pokimane’s plans to go to TwitchCon “undercover” get foiled instantly

Pokimane planned to peruse the artist's gallery at TwitchCon without attracting a crowd

Imane Anys, known better by her online moniker ‘Pokimane’ has amassed a huge fanbase behind her over all the years of her streaming and content creation career. Hence, fans try not to leave any opportunity to interact with their favourite streamer whenever possible for them.

A similar scene was observed when Pokimane arrived in Amsterdam to attend the 2022 edition of TwitchCon EU. In her latest vlog, Pokimane documented how she tried to find a moment of anonymity while attending the post-pandemic Twitch event.

However, Poki wanted to experience the event as a regular attendee would. To fulfil this wish, Poki planned to go “undercover” by wearing a mask and sunglasses and pulling her hair up to prevent being recognised by any of her fans in attendance. In her vlog, she explained-

“I wanna go to the artists’ alley and I wanna like, really check out the floor, but I’m gonna go in disguise”

Donning this “disguise”, Pokimane made her way toward the artist’s gallery, joking “Who am I with my hair up? All of a sudden, not Pokimane. Surely, no one will know.” Although she was able to reach the gallery successfully, as soon as she made her way down the aisle, a fan recognised her and asked for a picture.

The streamer gave a demoralised “Yeah” and broke into laughter after the fan apologised for recognising her. She went on to click pictures with other fans who had recognised her as well, even receiving gifts from some of them before proceeding to the gallery as she had planned.

In the vlog, Pokimane is also seen catching up and hanging out with many of her streamer friends such as HasanAbi, Tommyinnit, AustinShow and WillNeff among others. Her visit to the event was followed up by her announcing a break from social media, from which she has returned recently.
