In the clip, he said he is teaming up with Zack “Asmongold” and Nick Lee, who is the husband of Kaitlyn “Amouranth,” to create an event that will honor online creators in a different way.He also said something that grabbed even more attention. Adin Ross told his chat that controversial internet figure Nick Fuentes “deserves a f**king award.” He said the awards will not be biased and will not follow the usual pattern of “LA friends” picking each other. He told viewers he wants awards to go to people who “actually deserve awards,” and he wants the event to feel honest and direct.

During his November 19, 2025 livestream, Adin Ross explained why he chose to work with Nick Lee and Zack Asmongold. He said he wants a simple and fair event on Kick that gives creators real recognition. He told viewers, “Chat, I’m going to team up with Amouranth’s husband and Asmongold to put on the Kick awards show… We’re going to do streamer awards, and we’re going to do real awards.” He then added, “Nick Fuentes deserves a fking award.”**Two days earlier, on November 17, 2025, Adin Ross had already shared that the first version of the awards show fell apart. He said Kick CEO Ed Craven pulled out of funding the project. Adin Ross explained that the event would cost a lot of money, and he could not pay for everything himself. He told his chat, “Eddie does not want to cover the Kick award stuff anymore. So we are not doing my version of it anymore.”After the funding problem, Nick Lee reached out and offered to support the event, but only if Adin Ross agreed to host and if they considered adding Ice Poseidon. Adin Ross said he was open to making it work with Nick Lee. The new plan is to create a fresh awards show under Kick but with their own rules and choices.As of now, Zack Asmongold has not posted any public response about his involvement in the event. Fans are waiting to see how the three creators will shape the show and whether Nick Fuentes will actually be included in the nominations.Also Read: QTCinderella Faces Backlash After Jasontheween Nomination Clips Spark Criticism From XQc And Asmongold
