Controversial streamer Clavicular is being accused of fraud, battery and causing emotional distress in a new lawsuit filed by influencer Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza. (Clavicular’s attorney denies the claims.)
According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly on Wednesday, April 29, Mendoza claimed Clavicular (real name Braden Peters) wanted her to be the female face for “looksmaxxing,” a self-improvement practice he termed meant to enhance one’s physical appearance.
Mendoza said they met when she was 16 years old and she was under the impression Clavicular could help boost her career on social media. Things seemingly took a turn, however, when Clavicular allegedly had sex with Mendoza “while she was knowingly intoxicated, to the point where she was unable to give consent,” court documents stated.
“At this point, Mendoza did not know about Peters’ bragging about ‘slaying’ girls and having one-night stands,” court documents claimed. “Peters refers to this frequently as a ‘pump and dump.’”
Mendoza’s attorneys also alleged that Clavicular wanted to inject the influencer’s face with a product “to melt fat on her cheeks as part of his promise to help her with her online presence through ‘looksmaxxing.’ During this session, Peters stated or implied that he was acting with medical authority, including by referring to himself as a doctor or otherwise holding himself out as qualified to perform the injection.”
Mendoza’s attorneys argued in court documents that Clavicular was not authorized to inject their client with any drug, medication, chemical or fat-dissolving substance in November 2025. The alleged incident was also livestreamed, per court documents.
“Peters intentionally injected Mendoza with an unapproved drug without consent, causing physical and psychological injuries to her,” court documents alleged. “Under Florida law, these acts constitute battery.”
Mendoza’s attorneys also argue that their client “suffered severe emotional distress, trauma, humiliation, nightmares, fear, panic and mental anguish.”
In a statement to Us, Clavicular’s attorney, Steve Kramer, denied the claims, saying, “We are aware of the complaint recently filed against Mr. Peters. These are allegations only and remain unproven. Mr. Peters denies the claims and disputes the characterization of events. He will respond through the appropriate legal channels and intends to vigorously defend himself. We will not comment further at this time.” (TMZ was first to report the suit.)
Clavicular has developed a following on Kick and TikTok for his “looksmaxxing” content.
According to the BBC, the goal of looksmaxxing is to become the most attractive person you can be according to a set of prescribed criteria. Particular importance is given to jawlines, eyes and physique.

Clavicular has faced ups and downs with his newfound fame. Us confirmed on April 14 that the streamer had “suffered a suspected overdose” during a livestream and was briefly hospitalized.
“Just got home, that was brutal,” he posted via X on April 15. “All of the substances are just a cope trying to feel neurotypical while being in public, but obviously that isn’t a real solution. The worst part of tonight was my face descending from the life support mask.”
Two of his YouTube channels were also shut down this month following “severe or repeated violations” of the website’s community guidelines.
