Dream responds to being called ugly following face reveal

“I got texted by so many friends of mine being like, ‘Are you OK?’”

Dream, one of the most popular Minecraft content creators out there, recently revealed his face following three years of anonymity to his 30 million fans. Now, he's spoken about the unpleasant comments made about his appearance, saying that he sadly expected the negativity.

If you don't know Dream, you're sure to have been somewhat aware of the seismic shock that came out of his "face reveal." Previously, subscribers only knew his voice and saw Dream as his Minecraft avatar, a monochromatic smiley face on a neon green skin.

Here's what happened when this guy donated a single dollar to a streamer with no viewers:

Anonymity was a massive part of Dream's online persona, even though he didn't intend for it, and so the face reveal was momentous not only for himself but for his fans. While his video got nearly 22 million views and 2.5 million likes in less than a day, there was a darker side to the announcement, where people started poking fun at his appearance.

“I got texted by so many friends of mine being like, ‘Are you OK?’” explained Dream in an interview with Bloomberg. “I was like, well, yeah, when you have 30 million eyeballs on you, a million, two million people are going to be making jokes or mean or are not great people. When you take that big of a pool, there’s going to be a portion.”

As he says, the number of positive reactions outweigh the negative comments, and Dream even broke down in tears at TwitchCon last week, overwhelmed with the warm reception he got from fans at the convention. “I’d never felt this feeling before - happiness but with overwhelming ‘Wow, this is real, this is my life,’” he said.
