Monday, July 20, 2026 - Popular American streamer Kai Cenat is facing a lawsuit from a man who alleges he nearly suffered heatstroke twice during Cenat's Streamer University event held in Manhattan last month.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the plaintiff,
Caleb Gottfried, also known as SNRVK, claims unsafe conditions at the event
exposed attendees to excessive heat, causing him to experience two separate
near-heatstroke incidents. He further alleges that New York Police Department
officers witnessed the medical emergencies. Gottfried accuses the organisers of
failing to implement adequate crowd control measures and provide proper
ventilation and other standard safety precautions during the event.
The lawsuit also alleges that Cenat's company used
Gottfried's image in promotional material for Streamer University without his
consent. He claims he appeared as "background talent" in a commercial
advertising the event but was never asked to sign a release form or waiver
authorising the use of his likeness. Gottfried is seeking more than $330,000 in
damages, citing alleged negligence and the unauthorised commercial use of his
image.
The legal action comes as Cenat is also facing a separate
lawsuit from another individual who alleges he was assaulted by a member of the
streamer's security team during the same event. Neither Cenat nor his
representatives had publicly responded to the allegations at the time of
reporting.
