Kaitlyn Siragusa, better known as Amouranth, just made headlines again, but this time, it’s not for her wild streams or viral stunts. After raking in a jaw-dropping $38 million from streaming platform Kick, she’s officially making her way back to Twitch. Yes, you read that right. Here’s everything we know.
A $38M Detour Called Kick
Back in 2023, Amouranth shocked fans by leaving Twitch to sign an exclusive deal with Kick. The platform was still new but gaining serious momentum thanks to massive creator signings, including xQc’s historic $100M contract.
While her exact Kick contract details were hush-hush, Amouranth herself revealed in an interview that it doubled her income. If the math checks out, that’s $19M a year; not bad for a “side gig,” right?
Kick gave her the space to push boundaries, build her empire, and explore other business ventures… all while cashing in big.
The Return Tease That Broke the Internet
Fast forward to June 19, 2025. Amouranth drops a cheeky teaser video on X (formerly Twitter). In the clip, she’s seen refueling her car with a green Kick-themed license plate at a gas station. She gets a call, casually says, “I’m on my way,” then hops in the car.
Then? A quick flash of the Spongebob meme - “$38 million later” and the green car turns Twitch purple. The car suddenly transforms into a Twitch-purple ride. And just like that, her comeback was confirmed. The Twitch return is officially set for June 20.
What’s Next for Amouranth?
Here’s what we don’t know yet:
- Is she returning to Twitch exclusively?
- Has her Kick deal ended, or is she simply allowed to multistream?
- Will we see her explore OTK, which she’s publicly shown interest in joining?
What we do know: She’s not going to YouTube. Her main account was terminated for ban evasion, and her ASMR content was previously removed for “sexual content.” So, Twitch is really the only big stage left.
Why Now? Why Twitch?
There’s no official word on whether her Kick contract simply ran out or if she opted for an early exit. But what’s clear is this: the exclusivity era may be ending. Platforms like Kick are no longer locking down creators with long-term deals. Instead, they’re pushing multistreaming—something Amouranth might lean into next.
After a lucrative two-year run on Kick, Amouranth is pulling a full-circle move and returning to Twitch. With $38 million in the bank, a purple car, and a teaser that broke the internet, she’s proving once again: she knows how to command attention and the bag.
