Controversial “looksmaxxer” Clavicular recently ignited discussions on social media following his trip to Tel Aviv, Israel. During his visit, he reportedly went on a date with an IDF social media manager and dined with advisors to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Later, Clavicular went live on Kick, revealing that Netanyahu’s advisors had asked him for advice on looksmaxing and whether he could do a gym livestream with the Israeli leader to connect with younger audiences.
During the stream, he shared, “They mentioned Bibi has been struggling to connect with the younger generation; they think he looks old and out of shape. Would you be interested in doing a gym stream with him?”

Clavicular stated he had dinner with Netanyahu’s advisors to teach them about looksmaxing. He also said they asked him to organize a gym livestream with the Prime Minister, which drew reactions from the media and the public.
He tweeted, “Clavicular says he had dinner with Benjamin Netanyahu’s advisors to teach them about looksmaxing and claims they asked him to do a gym stream with Netanyahu 😳👀. They mentioned Bibi’s difficulty in connecting with the younger generation; they think he’s old and out of shape.”
The influencer later noted that Israel’s more liberal media outlets criticized his visit due to their opposition to Netanyahu. In relation to his meeting with Netanyahu, some media labeled Clavicular an anti-Semite, referencing a video where he was seen singing along to Kanye West’s song “Heil Hitler” with a group of controversial influencers, including Sneako and Nick Fuentes.
According to Al Jazeera, Shira Braun—an IDF soldier responsible for managing the Israeli military’s TikTok account—also faced backlash after streaming and socializing with Clavicular.
One critic remarked, “Risking professional reputation and military career just for a fleeting moment of digital fame demonstrates terribly poor judgment.”
Another asserted that claims of disciplinary action are false, stating, “She was assigned there, and now they’re just managing the situation.”
Al Jazeera reported, “The soldier managing the Israeli military’s TikTok account, Shira Braun, is under scrutiny after appearing in videos with Clavicular, including singing along to Kanye West’s ‘Heil Hitler.’”
The “looksmaxxer” has also drawn criticism from pro-Palestine activists. They condemned his visit to Israel amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza and Lebanon.
As reported by Gaza’s Health Ministry, Israel’s military operations in Gaza have resulted in over 73,000 Palestinian deaths, injuring at least 173,000 others, with many missing beneath rubble. Additionally, Israel’s actions in Lebanon have caused over 12,000 fatalities since March, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.
