### Adin Ross’ Rise to Online Fame
Ross, 25, is one of the internet’s most recognizable live streamers, with more than 13 million combined followers across Twitch, YouTube, Kick and Instagram. He first gained attention in 2019 by streaming video games and quickly built a large audience.
His popularity surged in 2020 when he began collaborating with **Bronny James**, the son of NBA star **LeBron James**. The two drew viral attention for placing five-figure bets while playing NBA 2K, helping expand Ross’ reach beyond the gaming community.
In recent years, Ross has broadened his content to include interviews with rappers, influencers and political figures. One of his most widely viewed streams featured an interview with President **Donald Trump**, conducted three months before the 2024 presidential election.
### Career Controversies
Despite his success, Ross’ career has been marked by controversy. He has reportedly been banned from Twitch eight times. In 2023, he was permanently banned from the platform following repeated incidents involving hateful and homophobic content appearing in his livestream chat.
That permanent ban was lifted in March 2025 — a move that reportedly sparked backlash from some Twitch employees.
Ross has not yet publicly commented in detail on his sister’s death.
