"I was pretty bored": Mizkif explains why he faked his recent relationship

Former Twitch streamer Matthew "Mizkif" has stated that his recent relationship with Juice was fake, and explained the situation by saying that "he was pretty bored," adding that he "made a narrative" that ultimately worked. On December 15, 2025, a three-minute-57-second video from his recent livestream on his alternative Twitch channel surfaced on X.

In it, Mizkif asked his viewers how many of them "actually" thought he was in a relationship with Juice. While claiming that his core audience was aware that the situation was "just pure troll," the former One True King (OTK) member acknowledged that his relationship with Juice was not genuine.

He elaborated:

"'Can't believe so many people fell for the pregnancy bit.' Bro, how many of you guys actually thought I was in a relationship? Can I ask you guys that? How many of you really thought I was in a relationship? Okay, good. I'm assuming most of my core viewers knew that I was not in a relationship, and it was just pure troll. 'I kind of did.' I had so many people message me afterwards, thinking that I was in a relationship. And they're like, 'Dude, I'm so sorry.' I'm like, 'What the f**k?' 'I thought it was real.' No. It was fake. I faked it for three weeks."

Mizkif then explained why he faked his relationship:

"The reason why I did it, honestly, is because I was pretty bored, and Juice came and visited for four days, so I was like, 'All right, I'm just going to make this whole narrative that we're dating,' and then it worked."

Mizkif says his videos are doing "better now than ever before" because of hate-watchers

At the three-minute-42-second mark of the video mentioned above, Mizkif stated that his video content is performing "better now than ever before" due to the engagement from his hate-watchers.

He said:

"I have so many people that hate me, that they watch my content just to comment and s**t on me. But that's engagement. So, thank you! Like, my videos are doing better now than ever before, and it's because I think it's just so many people are watching to say, 'I hate you,' that it's doing fantastic. By the time they type, 'I hate you,' it's by the time they type it, it's already the gambling part."
