Cinna's dad was elated upon seeing his daughter receive the award and exclaimed:

"Oh my baby! Oh my God! This is crazy!"

Why did Cinna cry on a call with Twitch streamer AimHigh on her birthday?

Cinna recently had an emotional interaction with long-time friend and fellow content creator Jake "AimHigh" after the latter called her to wish her a happy birthday. She was taken aback by AimHigh's "nice" remarks, which she claimed was uncharacteristic of AimHigh.

However, he justified his unusual demeanor by stating that it was the "special occasion" of her 28th birthday. While talking to Cinna, he also asked her to look forward to The Streamer Awards ceremony with anticipation. This would eventually bear fruit with her Sapphire Award win.

In other news, a clip from the award ceremony went viral. It showcased Rani "Stable Ronaldo" lead Twitch political commentator HasanAbi away from a backdrop featuring the event's sponsors for the latter's interview segment. Before this, Stable Ronaldo had been interviewing other guests on a platform with the sponsor backdrop.

While no official reason has been provided regarding HasanAbi not being allowed to stand next to the sponsors, many speculate that the streamer's controversial political stance is the reason behind companies not wanting to associate with him.
