Ever since Adin Ross joined Kick, he has been talking about how the platform is planning to sign more creators. Since joining Kick.com on February 13, 2023, Adin has been gaining popularity on the platform. With that popularity, he has also become a part of some controversies. In one of his streams, he hinted at mega stars joining that platform.
Since then, Kick has also announced that GMHikaru will be streaming on the platform. However, it would be a non-exclusive contract, Hikaru had confirmed.
Fans speculate if Kai Cenat could be next to join Kick

After Kai Cenat was banned for the fifth time on Twitch, speculations that he would be joining Kick have increased. Now, Cenat has become the third black person to be banned from the platform.
According to Dexerto, the reason for the ban was said to be “repeated explicit simulated sexual activity in GTA.” According to Twitch guidelines he was banned because of the following reasons:
“To ensure content on Twitch is appropriate for diverse audiences, sexually suggestive content is prohibited on Twitch,” it reads.
“Evaluations on the sexual suggestiveness of a behavior or activity are independent of user attire and are instead based on the overall surrounding framing and context.”

Talking about a mega-star joining Kick, Adin Ross said on his stream: “Oh, by the way, I swear a mega superstar streamer just signed to Kick.” His chat began wondering who the creator could be and began dropping names. Trying to pacify them, Ross said:
“I cannot give a hint or anything like that or it’ll ruin the hype and ruin the fun”

Kick has earlier joked about how former POTUS, Barack Obama could be joining the platform. However, that turned out to be an April Fool’s Day prank. Since then, there have just been speculations, and not a concrete response from Kick.
It will be fun to see whether Kai Cenat joins Kick after he has been banned from the platform. If the speculation comes out to be true, it would be a big blow to Twitch, who has been on a banning spree of some kind.
