Former WWE star Paige has been banned from her Twitch channel. Her channel at Sarayaofficial is currently offline as of this writing. The ban apparently happened after she did a watch along of Jim Carrey’s “Dumb and Dumber” movie. She previously streamed the movie “Labyrinth” but the ban did not happen until “Dumb and Dumber was streamed. Twitch is very strict with what they allow on their platform and their rules state that copyrighted footage is not allowed. At this point, there’s no word on if this is a temporary or permanent ban. This is a big deal for her because she makes a significant amount of money on the platform. Paige has not publicly commented yet on the ban. ❌ Twitch Partner "SarayaOfficial" (@RealPaigeWWE) has been banned! ❌https://t.co/FBzPy08KLv#twitch #ban #firstban #partner #twitchpartner 🙌 — StreamerBans (@StreamerBans) May 28, 2021

Former WWE Divas Champion Paige was banned from Twitch earlier today due to copyright infringement. According to her followers, Paige did a watch along of Dumb and Dumber and her stream was shut off in the middle of Jim Carey’s classic comedy. She had previously streamed 1986 movie Labyrinth but didn’t get banned for the same. As of this writing, Paige’s Twitch channel throws up the following message: Sorry. Unless you’ve got a time machine, that content is unavailable. A user on Twitter noted that Paige was likely DMCA’d by a rights holder since Dumb and Dumber is not a movie eligible for Prime Watch Parties on Twitch. Typically, streamers on Twitch are allowed to host watch parties for several movies at the Amazon-owned platform but Dumb and Dumber does not qualify. Paige has been streaming on Twitch since last year and is one of the top wrestling personalities on the platform. As per Twitch guidelines, a suspension can last for up to 30 days, and streamers with prior suspension records can be removed from the platform indefinitely. Since this was Paige’s first violation, she is likely to be back on the platform soon. Last month, Paige celebrated three years of…

There will be a cosplay guest, Vivid Vision, as well as more online panels, a virtual vendors room, and there will be streaming live gameplay.  The convention is still accepting online applications for vendors and it’s free.  This will be the first of two events with the second coming in November.  That convention is planned to be in-person at the convention center.  Gina Maeda the director of PR and Media is excited about that as well. “Safety is our number one priority. We are keeping in close communication with the convention center and city and state officials, and following CDC recommendations. Unfortunately, nothing is certain right now, but we are hoping to develop a clearer plan as November gets closer. We all miss being together to celebrate our fandoms, and we look forward to doing it again when it’s safe.” You can find more information online on Instagram as @kawaiikonofficial…

Select gamers will have the chance to perform for over 250 people.Last year Harmonix, the developer behind Rock Band and Dance Central, launched their latest title Fuser, allowing gamers to become their very own DJ heroes. Without any special equipment, players are able to explore the world of mixing music in front of a massive virtual festival. Little did we know, even the professionals would be performing like this in just a few short months post-launch. After the rise of Twitch DJ sets due to the pandemic, developers are now releasing an update to the game called the "Headliner Spotlight." This feature will allow players the chance to DJ for actual people at the Diamond Stage, a 24/7 live venue. Over 250 people will be able to watch a lucky user spin both in-game and on Twitch. While the performance in itself is important, the most crucial component of the new update is locking down your time slot. Just like with in-person events, securing a spot on the stage during an hour when more people are tuned in is key. In order to secure the primetime slot, the user will have to earn enough Diamonds through in-game play. Developers have stated that users cannot…

Sergio Aguero has been streaming for several months and the Argentine has attacked his critics over it. Aguero will be taking part in his first Champions League final on Saturday when Manchester City play Chelsea. However, the soon to be Barcelona striker was on Twitch streaming where he attacked his critics. With thousands of people watching and subscribed, Aguero had this to say about his streams: “I think today is my last stream, I don’t know for how long. My agenda is full. I think it’s my last day. On Thursday, I fly out to Portugal, Saturday is the match. After that I have to go to Argentina. I’m in Argentina the entire month of June. And in July I won’t do anything either.” Regarding his critics: “Today, everyone is jumping on the bandwagon, the record. How great Kun is when just a while ago they (the journalists) were killing me. Today it’s how great Kun is, it’s incredible what he did. I would prefer to be calm, to enjoy it there and focused on the national team. “Everyone is expecting the slightest mistake and if something happens, the first thing they will say in Argentina is that I am…

A Twitch Streamer, "Alinity," has recently called out "creepy" stranger fans who randomly showed up at her doorstep. She was shaken up by the incident, which was later reported to the police. Alinity said that this is considered harassment and is unacceptable in any way, as she and other streamers are still entitled to privacy and safety despite being public figures. (Photo : Twitter via @AlinityTwitch) Being a person in the limelight is hard, as actors and actresses gather a massive amount of fandom, which sometimes turns into more than admiring one's talent; it turns into obsession. There are a lot of cases in Hollywood and artists worldwide involving obsessed fans who are "creepy" and do unimaginable things such as stalking and harassment. The world has evolved from only having artists or stars from the TV, Film, Theater, Radio, and print media, which now has rising stars from YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, and other content sharing or streaming websites. Being a streamer has now been letting people earn and gain the "popularity" they so desire, especially during this time of digital convergence.
