acknowledged sending photos of himself to people online for money during his May 5 broadcast, following allegations made by a former associate. The Swedish content creator defended his actions as a legitimate "hustle" that helped him earn significant income.
"I'll send that sh*t every day," Garcia said during his stream. "Look at where the f**k I am at right now. And I would do it again tomorrow!"
The controversy erupted after an alleged former associate claimed on May 4 that Garcia had been sending explicit photos to gay men for money. She also alleged that she helped create a "fake image" of the streamer and assisted in removing his text messages from an adult website.

Garcia justified his actions by citing the financial benefits, claiming the photos helped him earn substantial sums.
"A thousand dollars? 500? 200 there, 300 there? Bro, that's what I make in two weeks! You don't think I would take that? So yes!" the streamer said during his broadcast.
Garcia also maintained that he had previously disclosed sending photos to his audience, suggesting only newer viewers were unaware of his past activities.
Other controversies surrounding Garcia
This incident comes amid multiple allegations against the 23-year-old content creator. Garcia's alleged brother recently disputed his claims of homelessness, calling them a "whole setup" for streaming content.
A former girlfriend also accused Garcia of "lying" online and selling explicit photos of himself to men, contradicting his public persona as a "man of God."
Garcia, who has over 1 million TikTok followers and 300,000 Twitch followers, recently made headlines for wearing an eyepatch on stream after claiming he got Gorilla Glue in his eye.
Fellow streamer Adin Ross has defended Garcia, stating that the Twitch personality is "not weird" despite the allegations.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos on 'two biographical heroes' who influenced his business philosophy
Amazon founder and former CEO Jeff Bezos said that Thomas Edison and Walt Disney are his 'two biographical heroes' who influenced his entrepreneurial philosophy. In a 2001 interview, Bezos highlighted how Edison's inventive spirit and Disney's visionary leadership shaped the way he approached building Amazon into one of America's most influential tech companies. Bezos praised Edison as both a symbol and embodiment of innovation, admiring his role as a pioneer in invention. Stating that the American inventor is his biographical hero, Bezos said 'Edison is not only the symbol of that but the actual fact of that'. In contrast, he credited Disney for his ability to create a compelling vision and inspire large teams to bring that vision to life — a skill Bezos found crucial for scaling ambitious projects. He praised Disney's 'incredible capability to create a vision that he could get a large number of people to share'. He further noted that while Edison largely worked alone on his inventions, Disney's success came from organizing people around a shared dream — something Bezos sought to emulate in Amazon's growth and culture. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Andy Jassy reveals Jeff Bezos' four traits that helped make Amazon a $1 trillion company In an interview, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy highlighted four key traits that set Bezos apart, calling him 'arguably the most unusual business leader of our era.'

Gauri Khan-owned restaurant's head chef says fake paneer controversy helped business: Everything we provide is top-notch
Earlier this year, in April, Gauri Khan's Mumbai restaurant Torii landed in soup after a content creator claimed that the place served iodine-stained, dark paneer (cottage cheese) in their dishes. The restaurant had shut down the rumours, then. Now, in an interview with Screen, the restaurant's head chef Stefan Gadit has shared that the controversy had a reverse impact on the business, as it brought in more 'impact' to the place. (Also read: Gauri Khan's posh restaurant Torii reacts to 'fake paneer' found in their dish by YouTuber) During the interaction, the head chef said, "It makes an impact when we point fingers at something baseless. The quality, the ingredients, everything we provide is top-notch; we had nothing to worry about. We issued the statement so that people could know what is happening and how things are done. There is a lot of stuff going on with food chemistry and food science, it takes four years, just pouring something on something was just…don't get me wrong. He did that with his pure intentions, just wanted to check.' He went on to address whether the controversy affected the restaurant at all, and said, "It increased our business and I got more than 20-30 followers on Instagram, so that was a blessing in disguise, I would say.' YouTuber Sarthak Sachdeva later took down the video where he claimed 'fake paneer' was used in the restaurant. Torii had also responded to the now-deleted video in the comments. 'The iodine test reflects the presence of starch, not the authenticity of the paneer. As the dish contains soy-based ingredients, this reaction is expected. We stand by the purity of our paneer and the integrity of our ingredients at Torii,' read the comment. Gauri Khan's restaurant, Torii, opened last year on Valentine's Day. Sussanne Khan, Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Pandey, Neelam Kothari and Seema Sajdeh had attended the launch.
