Pokimane's Dirty Little Secret

Influenced by Dexerto

Pokimane may have just revealed a boyfriend she's been keeping secret for years!

Transcript

00:00 PokeMain has spent her career keeping her dating life a total secret, but did she just

00:04 accidentally leak the guys she's seeing?

00:06 This all started when Poke uploaded a vlog from this year's Streamer Awards.

00:10 "First things first, gotta get ready, these are the dresses I had, and I had a glam team,

00:14 it was so nice to have actual professionals, and then I went to the show, met up with some

00:18 friends."

00:19 But the crucial part came next.

00:20 "And there was a random handsome man sat beside me."

00:23 And this comment sent Poke fans into meltdown.

00:26 So who is this random handsome man, and could they actually be dating?

00:30 First we have to address the big problem here, because Poke has made some very interesting

00:34 comments.

00:35 Just a couple of months ago, Poke said she hates it when people link her to guys.

00:39 "People have wrongfully assumed that I've either dated or been involved with people

00:44 that I just haven't, which is annoying."

00:46 But Poke never actually confirms or denies these rumours, and she has two reasons.

00:51 "One, if you are so adamant about not being involved with someone, my concern was always

00:56 like 'it's gonna sound so rude' if you're like 'no I'm definitely not dating this person,

01:01 yuck!'"

01:02 So maybe this handsome man is just a friend that Poke doesn't want to insult by saying

01:06 she'd never date him.

01:08 Well, listen to this second reason.

01:10 "If I start clarifying certain assumptions involving me and other people, it kind of

01:15 narrows down who I might see or might not or whatever, right?"

01:20 This is interesting.

01:21 Poke thinks that by revealing her love life, it'll ruin her chances with other people in

01:26 the future.

01:27 So if she has just told everyone that she's dating someone, they must be pretty serious.

01:32 So it's time for this random handsome man to reveal himself.

01:36 This is Kevin Kim, and he's actually appeared in Poke's videos before.

01:40 "Are we dating?"

01:42 "Um, um, um."

01:43 But there's one video in particular from 2021 that started this whole thing.

01:48 It was the first time Poke had introduced the world to Kevin, and fans said their chemistry

01:52 was undeniable.

01:53 And when someone asked if Kevin was single, this is what they said.

01:57 "I mean he's already dating you guys, you don't even need to ask."

02:01 "Yeah, why are you tripping?"

02:03 So Kevin was dating someone at the time.

02:06 Bear that in mind for this next clip, because one of Poke's viewers made a joke, pretending

02:10 that it was Kevin's stream and having no idea who Poke was.

02:14 And Kevin's response was pretty revealing.

02:16 "It's nice of you to let your sister stream with you.

02:19 Does she do anything interesting?"

02:22 "Okay, J.R. Wissenbach."

02:24 "Oh my god, no, it's a joke!

02:26 Don't get defensive of me, he's joking and I'm okay with it!"

02:30 "Don't be."

02:32 "Ahh!"

02:34 Kevin was getting pretty defensive of Poke there.

02:36 But hey, it could just be someone sticking up for their friend, right?

02:39 Well a few months later, Poke revealed a contract that the two of them had signed.

02:43 It said Kevin had to appear on cooking streams with Poke at least once a month, and provide

02:49 stream support bimonthly.

02:51 Now is this the kind of thing that just friends do?

02:54 And there's another important part to this contract, it has no end date.

02:58 So it looks like we're going to be seeing a lot more of Poke and Kevin together.

03:02 But all of this raises an important question.

03:04 If Poke and Kevin are going out, then why is Poke still being so cryptic about the whole

03:09 thing?

03:10 Why would she call him a random handsome man, then barely show his face in the vlog, instead

03:15 of just saying it?

03:16 Come on Poke, you'd tell me if you were dating, right?

03:19 "You'll never know because I will never confirm or deny anything."
