Clavicular is the online alias of Braden Eric Peters (born December 17, 2005), an American livestreamer and internet personality known for his content on looksmaxxing, the practice of maximizing one's physical attractiveness. He rose to prominence in 2025 through TikTok and Kick.
His streams instruct followers on how to "ascend," or become more attractive, and have promoted practices including bone smashing, anabolic steroid use, and methamphetamine as an appetite suppressant. He has drawn repeated controversy for these promotions, for appearing alongside far-right figures, and for a series of arrests. He describes himself as apolitical.
In February 2026, Peters modeled for the Remilia Atelier capsule collection at Elena Velez's AW2026 New York Fashion Week show. He closed the Atelier segment as the final model, wearing an Atelier cufflinks shirt treated with a reflective liquid finish and suit trousers while livestreaming his walk. It was his first runway appearance.[1]
Early life
Peters was born on December 17, 2005, and raised in Hoboken, New Jersey. He attended Seton Hall Preparatory School in West Orange. He became interested in looksmaxxing during high school, which he has attributed to a desire to gain political influence through physical attractiveness. His online alias derives from the emphasis placed on clavicle width within the looksmaxxing community. Peters has said he began injecting testosterone at age 14, hiding the supplements from his parents, and that he was expelled from Sacred Heart University after three weeks over his use of peptides and steroids. He has stated that he is on the autism spectrum, though he has not been professionally diagnosed.[2]
Career
Streaming
Clavicular began posting content on TikTok in October 2021, initially participating in trends and dances before turning to looksmaxxing content. By 2025 he had approximately 750,000 followers on TikTok, 306,000 on Instagram, and 170,000 on Kick.[3] His content typically involves instructing followers on how to "ascend," or become more attractive, through routines and cosmetic interventions. He has promoted practices including bone smashing, steroid use, and the use of methamphetamine for weight loss, which he has termed "leanmaxxing."
Jason Parham of Wired described Clavicular as one of looksmaxxing's "most popular influencers" in September 2025, and The Guardian's Dave Schilling called him "one of the most prominent influencers in the looksmaxxing community."[2] Poppy Sowerby of UnHerd characterized him as a "snake oil salesman" who genuinely believed in the efficacy of his methods.
Remilia Atelier runway debut
Charlotte Fang suggested casting Clavicular to model in Elena Velez's AW2026 New York Fashion Week show for the Remilia Atelier capsule collection. Clavicular closed the segment as the final model, wearing an Atelier cufflinks shirt treated with a reflective liquid finish paired with suit trousers. During his walk he livestreamed the appearance while a cameraman lit the suit's reflective treatment from the runway.[1] The press release described him as an "infamous 'looksmaxxing' streamer."[4]
Clavicular attended the afterparty at Le Bain at its 10 PM start but was removed by the venue's manager before the music began.
Controversies
Clavicular has been involved in numerous controversies. In November 2025, a video of him injecting his then-17-year-old friend with Aqualyx, a cosmetic fat-dissolving treatment, during a live stream drew widespread criticism. On December 24, 2025, footage from his live stream showed him striking a man with a Tesla Cybertruck at Amelia Earhart Park in Miami-Dade County, Florida; he was not charged but was temporarily banned from Kick.[2]
He has been associated with far-right figures, appearing alongside Nick Fuentes, Andrew Tate, and Sneako. A video of the group singing along to Kanye West's antisemitic song "Heil Hitler" at a Miami Beach nightclub in January 2026 was widely condemned, including by Miami Mayor Steven Meiner. Clavicular has described himself as apolitical and stated that he does not wish to be associated with politics.
On February 7, 2026, Peters was arrested in Scottsdale, Arizona, for allegedly entering a bar with a forged ID and was booked on felony charges of possession of a forged instrument and dangerous drug possession, as well as a misdemeanor charge. He was released the following day, and the charges were dropped on February 11, 2026.[3]
