VTuber Ironmouse has overtaken Kai Cenat to become the most-subscribed Twitch streamer ever.
Ironmouse is a Puerto Rican-American VTuber and founding member of the VTuber group VShojo which launched in 2020. She’s best known for anime, singing, voice acting, art, gaming, and variety streaming content, with 2.1 million followers on Twitch.
Ironmouse passed Kai Cenat’s previous record of over 306,000 Twitch subscribers (different to followers) after a subathon that will see half the money raised donated to the Immune Deficiency Foundation. Ironmouse now has an incredible 314,146 active Twitch subscribers. Cenat smashed Ludwig’s record back in March 2023 during a subathon of his own, amassing 306,261 subscribers.
“Words cannot express how I am feeling nor can they express my gratitude,” Ironmouse tweeted in response. “Thank you all so much for the incredible support and thank you for changing my life. Thank you for being the best community in the universe. WE DREAMED BIG AND WE DID IT BROS! I LOVE YOU ALL!”
The official Twitch Twitter/X account congratulated Ironmouse on her achievement.

During a post-match press conference for the Little Basketball Association, Cenat congratulated Ironmouse for the milestone, but vowed to come back.
“First things first, I don’t know if y’all know, but my sub record got broken today,” Cenat said. “I want to go ahead and congratulate Ironmouse for breaking my record. Clap it up, clap it up. But look though, she really did that but I promised one thing to my supporters if that was broken. So, we’re gonna have to see what happens in the future.”
