Former Overwatch pro Félix “xQc” Lengyel has long been #1 on Twitch. People like to be invited to events there. However, the 27-year-old has a habit of regularly forgetting his pledges or withdrawing them at the last moment.
What kind of event is this? The Streamy Awards are an award given for outstanding achievements in internet television. In addition to categories for various web series, there is also a prize for the best vloggers.
In addition to wrestlers, TikTok stars and the Minecraft YouTuber Dream, the Twitch streamer xQc will also appear as a presenter at this year’s awards ceremony. The 27-year-old had no idea about that and only found out about it via Twitter. The moment was captured live on stream.
Never agree to a performance at 5 in the morning
What was that situation? On August 22, xQc broadcast the Opening Night Live of gamescom 2023 in its stream. However, something on his second monitor apparently caught the streamer’s attention and distracted him from the running trailer.
Because in a Twitter post, xQc was announced as a presenter at the Streamy Awards. One clip captures the precise moment as the Twitch streamer processes what he’s seeing and his facial features go haywire. We have included it for you here:
xQc shows his viewers the post with the words “Wait, I’m presenting an award?” and then explains: He must have said that sometime at 5 a.m. before bed and then forgot.
The streamer then asks his chat when the event is taking place – information he could also glean from the tweet, but maybe the 27-year-old just couldn’t believe his eyes.
The information that the award ceremony will take place next Sunday, August 27th, leaves xQc with a dumbfounded “What? On Sunday?” ejaculate while his viewers seem to be having a good time.
Until then, the streamer still has a few days to prepare for his performance – or to cancel it.
By the way, the second screen where xQc discovered the shocking news is also one of the secrets of its great success, according to the Twitch streamer. Because the 27-year-old produces targeted content that his viewers can run at the same time.
