Twitch steamer Sketch emotionally addresses leak of old OnlyFans porn: ‘I’m a changed person’
Popular Twitch streamer Sketch emotionally addressed a leak showing he once filmed porn on OnlyFans, telling his 1.1 million followers he has a “changed person” after kicking “a couple” of addictions.
“Two years ago, I did some stuff. I’m sorry if you’ve seen some of the stuff,” the 25-year-old streamer, whose real name is Kylie Cox, told his followers Monday, confirming he was the adult performer seen in the leaked material.
“Yeah, that was me. I f–ked up — I won’t do it again.”
He blamed it on “a dark time” two years ago when he was “dealing with some addiction problems. A couple of them.”
“You know I’m a changed person,” he said of the period before he started his Twitch channel, which streams the Madden NFL video game series.
He made light of the X-rated material, starting with a joke referring to then-President Bill Clinton’s much-derided initial denial of inappropriate behavior with Monica Lewinsky.
“I did not have sexual relations with that man!” Sketch pretended to say. “I’m just kidding, I did. … Cat’s out of the bag.”
Sketch conceded that he went through dark thoughts after the images were leaked — saying he feared he might not have survived had close friends and family “saved” him — before saying it was a relief to finally be unburdened of having to keep it secret.
“I’ve been living under the threat of that coming out for like two years,” he said.
“I’ll tell you what — weight lifted off my shoulders,” he said now he no longer had “stuff in the closet.”
Sketch went on to say that he thought he might quit if the news ever came out, but joked he would now take inspiration from Kim Kardashian on how to handle a sex-tape scandal.
Sketch said he now plans to take a quick break, but may be back streaming as soon as Wednesday.
While some took to social media to express their disappointment in Sketch for his past, plenty of his fellow creators, including [FaZe Banks, came to his defense.
Banks shared a text exchange he had with Sketch after the images were leaked showing Sketch apologizing for getting him and others involved to which he replied, “You’re good bro. Come back. We’re all here, you’re the homie.”
