Overview
Kick Streamer DumbDumbJeez Dine and Dash Date With Homeless Woman Controversy refers to a viral video and controversy in which Kick streamer DumbDumbJeez takes a homeless woman out on a date to a nice restaurant, then dine and dashing on the bill as he runs out of the restaurant and hops in a rideshare car. The stream is an entry into a contest hosted by streamer Sam Pepper to win $50,000. The stream took place on October 24th, 2024, and garnered viral spread online, inspiring backlash over the actions of the streamer, with some calling for his ban on all platforms. The portion of the stream in which he dines and dashes was seemingly removed from the VOD after the stream took place, but clips were reposted elsewhere online.
Background
On October 24th, 2024, a contest hosted by content creator Sam Pepper to win $50,000 began. The contest involves performing specific challenges as described by Pepper, with users voting on the winner through the next.up website. The first challenge was to stream yourself on a date with a stranger, with the best date winning.[8]
On October 24th, 2024, Kick[1] streamer DumbDumbJeez hosted a roughly two-hour-long stream titled "WINNING SAM PEPPER EVENT LIVE ππ BEST MARKETER IN THE WORLD π· CRASHING OUT πΏπ‘." About an hour and 20 minutes into the stream, the streamer approaches and socializes with a homeless woman named Mabel to take her on a date. She starts claiming to him that she is in "Heath Ledger's son's body," ranting nonsensically about how she was put into the body of Heath Ledger's child and altered to keep it a secret.
About an hour and 57 minutes into the stream, the streamer takes Mabel to the restaurant and they order food. Roughly 15 minutes later, DumbDumbJeez claims he forgot his wallet in the car, then pulls a "dine and dash" on Mabel by running from the restaurant, hopping in a rideshare vehicle and leaving her stuck with the bill. The clip of DumbDumbJeez dashing from the restaurant was seemingly cut from the Kick VOD.
On October 25th, X[2] user @copiumx posted the clip of DumbDumbJeez dashing on the bill, garnering around 7,000 views, 20 likes and 20 replies in under a day.
