Controversial influencer Clavicular, whose real name is Braden Peters, has been admitted to hospital following a suspected overdose that occurred while he was broadcasting live on the streaming platform Kick. The feed abruptly ended, causing alarm among viewers who feared for his wellbeing.
Footage later surfaced showing the streamer being helped into a black vehicle as paramedics arrived. Reports indicate that Clavicular is now in a stable condition but remains hospitalised. During the livestream, fans noted his slurred speech and apparent intoxication as he interacted with young women at a shopping centre and restaurant.
At one point, fellow content creator Androgenic joined him and asked, ‘When did you last take blue?’ and later questioned whether Clavicular wanted ‘addy’, thought to be a reference to the prescription drug Adderall. The stream then terminated. Writing on X afterwards, Androgenic stated, ‘I hadn't seen him in this state before and he went from speaking to being fairly unresponsive in mere seconds. Within a minute we all realised the situation, turned the stream off, picked him up and rushed him to the hospital.’
Clavicular recently appeared on 60 Minutes Australia, where he faced questions about the ‘looksmaxxing’ movement, which promotes everything from skincare regimens to the dangerous practice of ‘bone bashing’ – using hammers to reshape jawlines. During the interview, he refused to discuss associations with controversial figures like Andrew Tate and made inflammatory remarks about the correspondent's wife.
Throughout his career, Clavicular has made shocking claims about his efforts to alter his appearance, including using methamphetamine for weight control and injecting testosterone since the age of 14.
