Aminematue

The origin story starts on Twitter, not Twitch. In 2012, Mohamed Amine Mahmoud began posting under the handle @AmineMaTue — satirical, fearless, rapid-fire takes on football, politics, and pop culture that built him a real following years before he ever went live. He worked in IT by day and ghostwrote for YouTubers — including names like Maskey and Le Rire Jaune — learning the mechanics of online comedy from the inside. By the time he finally turned on a camera, he’d spent eight years studying exactly what makes the French internet laugh, argue, and share.

The camera turned on in April 2020, in the middle of lockdown. AmineMaTue started on Twitch with Just Chatting and GTA V roleplay — the Flashland and NoPixel servers, situations funnier than the last — and pulled over 2,000 viewers a night almost immediately. The comedic persona that had worked in 280 characters turned out to work even better live: quick, warm, chaotic, and completely unafraid of looking ridiculous. The audience that had followed the tweets followed the streams.

Then came the IRL era. Through 2021, Amine and his circle — notably fellow streamer RebeuDeter — took the show outside: kitchen streams, urbex explorations, forest expeditions, carnival chaos. On 6 September 2021 they peaked at 44,575 concurrent viewers, and the momentum kept building. That June he’d already shown his range by riding Domingo’s “L’échappée” cycling event, grinding through cramps for the entire route while tens of thousands watched. The pattern was set: Amine doesn’t do content, he does events — and he suffers through them in public, which is why people love him.

Football was always the endgame. In October 2021 he organized the Five Club — a Twitch-broadcast football tournament between streamer teams featuring names like Kameto and Inoxtag — and averaged over 100,000 viewers. It was a proof of concept. The real thing arrived on 18 November 2022: Eleven All-Stars, a France vs. Spain influencer football match that Amine organized, produced, and headlined. The peak: 1,155,060 concurrent viewers — the all-time record for a French Twitch channel, and one of the most-watched streams in the platform’s history. Thierry Henry and Andrés Iniesta were in the building. A streamer had just out-drawn most television.

He didn’t stop to admire it. In 2023 came Zidane contre le Monde — Zinédine Zidane himself leading teams of footballers and streamers, with Samir Nasri and Michou among the names — another stadium-scale spectacle produced like television and consumed like a group chat. Behind it all was a real company: ACE Prod, the production house Amine co-founded with Karnage, plus AMINEMATUE SAS, founded in July 2022 to handle audiovisual production and advertising. The chaos is choreographed. That’s the trick.

The mainstream kept calling. In 2024 he appeared in MrBeast’s “50 YouTubers Fight for $1 Million” alongside Amixem and Mastu — the French delegation in the biggest creator crossover on the planet. In January 2025 he ran Stream for Humanity, a charity event that raised €3.48 million for victims of conflict, built around a charity football match featuring Zlatan Ibrahimović. A month earlier he’d talked public trash about “destroying” KSI and the Sidemen in a UK-vs-France football showmatch — it never happened, but the provocation alone showed where his ambitions pointed: across the Channel, at the biggest creator collective in the English-speaking world.

Football kept pulling him deeper. He coached Foot2Rue at the Kings World Cup 2024, and in April 2025 he became president of a Kings League France team — the seven-a-side league co-founded by Gérard Piqué with Squeezie — formalizing the jump from streamer to actual football executive. Then the Sidemen came calling for real: AmineMaTue was announced for the Sidemen Charity Match 2026 at Wembley Stadium on 18 April 2026 — his first appearance in the event, one of twelve streamers joining the 2026 edition alongside names like Spain’s Ibai. The kid from Twitter satire was playing Wembley.

And the Eleven All-Stars machine rolled on. The second edition — France vs. England — filled the Parc des Princes in Paris on 24 May 2026. France won 4-3, with Squeezie, Inoxtag, Michou, and Carlito on the French side and rapper SDM performing a halftime show with surprise guests Tiakola and Kaaris. Amine’s pre-match speech celebrating the diversity of France became one of the most-shared moments of the French internet that week. He wasn’t just organizing football matches anymore; he was staging national moments.

The numbers underneath it all: roughly 3.4 million Twitch followers, averaging tens of thousands of viewers per stream; 2.8 million followers on X, where the “La famine” community he built still thrives; 1.53 million YouTube subscribers. He streams on a fixed schedule — Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday nights — like a television network that happens to be one man.

Why he matters: because he redefined what a streamer is allowed to be. The job description used to be “play games on camera.” AmineMaTue turned it into event producer, football executive, charity fundraiser, and stadium filler — without ever losing the satirist’s instinct that started it all. Every French creator running a big live event today is working in the format he invented.

Why people watch: because anything can happen, and usually does. A GTA RP session becomes a tournament; a tournament becomes a stadium; a stadium becomes a national conversation. AmineMaTue doesn’t stream his life. He stages it — and invites three million people to come along.
