Dream\u2019s been making headlines as of late, and it hasn\u2019t been because of his incredibly successful YouTube career. Though the face reveal and subsequent tour has captured the hearts of many fans, there are those who have called him out for grooming fans. While these allegations have yet to be proven, some have continued accusing him of interacting with underage fans. Nicolas Cantu, a voice actor known for his roles on shows like TMNT and a star role in The Amazing World of Gumball, took to Twitter and called Dream a \u201cp*dophile\u201d, though he was replying to a fan account rather than Dream himself. The real Dream responded by posting a video of Cantu on a drunken rant in the back of an Uber, with him threatening Dream during their trip. Dream shows footage of Nicolas Cantu\u2019s rant The video depicts Cantu and Dream in an Uber car together in a rant that\u2019s garnered, at the time of writing, over 60 million views and counting on Twitter. He insulted the driver, calling him a \u201cfa****\u201d and a \u201cre****\u201d and comparing his intelligence to that of a caveman. \u201cYou don\u2019t understand that you\u2019re talking to, like, a Michelangelo of my time, right? Like, I\u2019m a genius. Albert Einstein-level history book maker. You\u2019re gonna be forgotten like the dust in the sand. When you\u2019re in the f***ing Sahara and there\u2019s a hundred million thousand billion sand particles, you\u2019re gonna be one of those. And I\u2019m gonna be a statue erected in gold.\u201d Cantu went on to claim he\u2019s like this because of, \u201cADHD, autism, neurodivergence,\u201d and that he wants to fight Dream. \u201cEither you\u2019re gonna be paralyzed or you\u2019re gonna be dead,\u201d claimed Cantu. In a tweet from before the video surfaced, Cantu claimed that he was drunk at the time despite him being underage and that he\u2019s been \u201ccutting back\u201d on drinking. The fact that Cantu was under the age of being able to legally drink led many to be concerned for his health and to double down on their accusations toward Dream. Cantu\u2019s rant slips into the realm of having delusions of grandeur, something often experienced by those who abuse substances and aren\u2019t in their right mind. Many of those who have since seen this video are concerned for Cantu\u2019s health and well-being. \u201cI would be pretty concerned if a friend of mine was acting like this after drinking, and would be something we could discuss after the hangover.\u201d said one Twitter user. Nicolas Cantu has yet to respond to the video at the time of writing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dream claims Nicolas Cantu threatened to kill him amid \u201chomophobic\u201d rant dreamwastaken\/ncantu | InstagramThe ongoing drama between voice actor Nicolas Cantu (known for roles in TMNT and The Amazing World of Gumball) and YouTuber Dream has come to a head as a video of Cantu has been released where he threatened to \u201cparalyze\u201d Dream, as [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-47797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47797"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47797\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
