Issues and Controversies

Bath Water & Fart Jars

In 2022, Amouranth followed in the footsteps of Belle Delphine by introducing her own line of bath water. But that's not where it ended. The streamer also offered "fart jars" for sale at a staggering $1,000 each, and predictably, they sold in large quantities. However, it seems that these unique items, categorized as "rare," have probably been discontinued as of 2023.

Hair Appointment

Once, Amouranth was getting ready for a cosplay and wanted the perfect hairstyle. She was at a salon, and they tried many times to make her happy, but she wasn't satisfied. She had been there for almost ten hours, and the stylists were getting frustrated. Eventually, because she didn't like how her hair looked, the salon had to call the police to help her leave.

Streaming at the Gym

There's another famous time when she dressed up like a pretend Captain America at a gym and did yoga on her stream. The gym workers asked her many times not to record, but she didn't listen. She stayed on the floor and said she wasn't filming, but her fans called the gym and told them she was. She got angry and talked a lot, and in the end, the gym told her to leave.

Stalker

Amouranth has mentioned having stalkers a few times. She once talked about a person who came from another country to her neighborhood. There was also an arson incident where her trashcan was burning in the driveway for about 30 minutes while she was playing Diablo III. Another incident involved a guy from Estonia who convinced himself they were married and even sold his possessions, including his house, back in Estonia. He came to America with only a few clothes and his saxophone, which he played on his streams while searching for Amouranth. He even tried to break into her house once, but she called the police and he was detained for trespassing. He stopped bothering her for about a year but then returned. In a more recent incident in March 2023, the same guy showed up again, but thanks to her dog, the situation was handled.
