Imane Anys Is on the 2025 TIME100 Creators List | TIME

In the male-dominated world of gaming, Imane Anys—a.k.a. Pokimane—stands out. The 29-year-old Moroccan Canadian creator rose to fame playing titles like Fortnite, League of Legends, and Valorant on Twitch, where her audience of 9.4 million makes her the platform’s most-followed female streamer and one of the top 20 most-followed overall. But Anys has long been thinking beyond the console. In addition to gameplay, she shares lifestyle content—including travel vlogs and day-in-the-life routines on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram, where she’s amassed nearly 20 million followers combined—and chats directly with viewers on Twitch during her streams. She also co-founded the creator collective OfflineTV in 2017, launched the streamer talent agency RTS in 2021, and has dipped a toe into acting, with a cameo in the action-comedy Free Guy and appearances in music videos for artists Bella Poarch and d4vd.
