In Vietnam’s gaming scene and the esports world, more and more women are becoming game streamers than ever before. For many, it’s not just a personal passion but also a career opportunity, a way to connect with the community, and even a main source of income.
Along with these opportunities, female game streamers face many challenges, including discrimination, online harassment, and pressure to always maintain a perfect public image. Many have overcome stereotypes to become major stars in the gaming industry, proving their talent and charm while attracting thousands or even millions of followers on streaming platforms. Lily Phan is one of them.
The beautiful streamer, once a rising star of V Gaming, is well-known in the Liên Quân Mobile community for her gaming skills. Every time she goes live, Lily Phan captivates male viewers with her polished and professional streaming style. Her sexy, confident look is also a big part of her appeal. Often wearing tight, revealing outfits that highlight her curves, she has sometimes faced unfair criticism based on her appearance. She has even been propositioned or received inappropriate comments.
Lily Phan recently spoke out about the rude attacks she’s faced from anti-fans. In a video she shared, she said: “Wearing revealing clothes is everyone’s right. Sometimes it highlights a woman’s beauty, it’s not something that has to change… Do you expect me to wrap myself in a blanket to stream?”
“For newcomers, attacks from the community and keyboard warriors might make them feel hopeless. But not me, I’ve been doing this for 5 years… Social media lets people say whatever they want, but I hope no one misunderstands or thinks badly about the streaming profession.” She urged everyone to realize that online harassment is not just harmless jokes.
Fans quickly showed their support for her and called for a healthier environment for content creators.
