Popular Twitch streamer Sketch has responded emotionally to a leak showing he once filmed porn on OnlyFans, telling his 1.1 million followers that he’s overcome several addictions and is now a “changed person.”
“Two years ago I did some stuff and I’m sorry if you saw some of it,” the 25-year-old streamer, whose real name is Kylie Cox, told her followers on Monday, confirming that she was the adult performer seen in the leaked material.
“Oh, that was me. I messed up. I won’t do it again.”
He blamed it on a “dark period” two years ago when he was “dealing with some addiction issues.”
“You can tell I changed,” he said, recalling the time before he started his Twitch channel streaming the video game series Madden NFL.
He downplayed the adult content by joking about then-President Bill Clinton’s widespread ridicule after he denied any inappropriate conduct with Monica Lewinsky.
“I don’t have a sexual relationship with that guy!” Sketch pretended to say. “Just kidding, I do….my secret’s out.”
Sketch admitted he went through dark thoughts after the photos were leaked and feared he might not have survived even if close friends and family had “saved him”, before saying he was relieved to finally be free from the burden of having to keep it a secret.
“I lived with the threat for about two years that it might be made public,” he said.
“It was a huge weight off my shoulders,” he said. There was no more “stuff in the closet.”
Sketch said he might quit if the news broke, but joked he’d take tips from Kim Kardashian on how to handle a sex tape scandal.
Sketch said he’s going to take a short break for now, but may resume streaming as early as Wednesday.
