Top women Valkyrae and Pokimane had shared a place last year, but now the two are on separate paths.
YouTube streamer Rachel “Valkyrae” Hoffstetter appeared late. Recently named the most watched female streamer in the world in the first quarter of 2021, the Valkyrae brand continues to grow impressively, especially since it started broadcasting only in 2018. Part of this success can be attributed to the fact that it has the right friends, and Valkyrae is the best one of the biggest stars on Twitch, Pokimane. The two are so close that they even shared a house in the last year with streaming colleagues xChocoBars and Starsmitten. But now that the lease has ended, it looks like Valkyrae is moving.
It’s not uncommon for social media stars to live together, as they often move to new places for business reasons, where they may not know anyone else, so staying with streamer friends is an option. Hi. This is talked about more often in the field of Tik Tok, as a group of content creators will move into the same house with a “Tik Tok Collective” to enhance the brand identity. Hype House is one such group that has done just that. Twitch and YouTube streams may be vaguely affiliated if they live together, but this is not always the case.
While Valkyrae and Pokimane remain best friends, Valkyrae says the move was driven by a desire to “have full control over my environment” and focus on their own plans. The freedom that comes with living alone is an attraction for the 29-year-old YouTuber. Valkyrae also explains that the movement was caused by some unhappy blind people who found out the address of the common house and, for safety reasons, the girls are all looking at new living arrangements. An address in the wrong person’s hands can lead to incidents such as swatting, which happened to Nate Hill in the Twitch stream while playing Fortnite recently.
Valkyrae moves left and right, having just entered into a joint ownership agreement with 100 Thieves, the budding esports team and brand. Valkyrae signed with 100 thieves as a content creator in 2018, but the step to ownership is particularly historic, as she is the first black woman to share an e-sports team. Combining all this with a move to a new location and maintaining a streaming program, Valkyrae is busy in 2021.
Recently, Valkyrae was seen over Grand Theft Auto 5, on the NoPixel RP server, the discussion about the world of streaming right now. Participating in so many big names, it should come as no surprise that the most watched female streamer also enters from time to time. While fans are a little sad that there may be less collaboration between Valkyrae and Pokimane in the future, it’s time for both of them to set a new course.
