For those unaware, The Streamer Awards is the brainchild of popular Twitch streamer Blaire "QTCinderella," who is also the primary organizer of the event that aims to recognize and reward the industry's best streamers every year. Modeled after some of the most popular award shows, the event comes with an exciting afterparty, where streamers from across the world can meet each other and celebrate together.
Unfortunately, this year's afterparty was cut short after JustaMinx's actions while being inebriated caused too much of a disruption. As the host responsible for organizing the entire event, QTCinderella spoke about the incidents that led to the party eventually being shut down. This occurred after police, an ambulance, and a firetruck were called to the venue at around 11:00 pm.
Through numerous channels, Blaire has expressed her disappointment with JustaMinx and revealed how the latter broke her promise of not drinking at the venue. The two had a Twitter spat, which included a screenshot of Blaire's Discord DMs to prove the "pinky swear" about the no-drinking pact, after JustaMinx appeared to blame her actions on epileptic seizures.
Here's the tweet chain in question:
While appearing on Fear& (HasanAbi and Will Neff's podcast) with AustinShow and fellow co-host of The Streamer Awards, Valkyrae, QTCinderella opened up about what happened at the event pertaining to the controversial behavior from the Irish streamer, which ultimately led to the afterparty being shut down.
A full account can be found here, but the key points include JustaMinx trying to throw propane gas cylinders into the pool, with QTCinderella and Valkyrae suggesting that she wanted people to get in the pool with her for a swim.
The main topic that caught the eye of the authorities was when she refused to cooperate with the security staff who wanted to escort her outside and went limp soon after. As such, there's some contention about whether or not this was intentional. Regardless of the motive, the damage was already done, with attendees forced to vacate the party venue at around 11:00 pm.
In a more recent livestream. QTCinderella went on to justify publicly calling out JustaMinx. She stated how close the two streamers were in the past until Minx's mental health and alcohol problems pushed her away.
All in all, QTCinderella has made it clear that she's deeply disappointed in her friend for both the harm that Minx's actions caused and how it ruined the event's highly anticipated afterparty.
