Amos Yee is back in the headlines, and once again, controversy followed close behind. The 27-year-old Singaporean content creator was reportedly assaulted outside the Doujima anime convention at Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre on May 9. Videos circulating online show a teenager dressed as Yuji Itadori from the anime series Jujutsu Kaisen punching and kicking Yee during a chaotic confrontation that quickly spread across social media.
The incident reignited debate around Yee’s long and deeply divisive public image. While some online users condemned the physical attack, others pointed to the years of scandals that have surrounded the former child actor turned blogger and YouTuber. The clash outside the convention has now become one of the most discussed streamer-related controversies in Singapore this week.
