EDIT: Sorry, she’s not a hairstylist! She’s a nail tech & spa owner. 😭 Duke Dennis allegedly missed his nail appointment at Shai Wathan Spa, and the owner called him out for not showing up. But the situation quickly backfired when people found out she had reportedly advertised that Duke would be there and shut down the spa for his appointment. Now social media is debating whether Duke was wrong for ghosting or whether publicly promoting his visit crossed a line. 👀 #DukeDennis #AMP #StreamerNews #PopCulture #tiktokfantasymoviecontest

Transcript

This has got to be one of the most embarrassing ways to fumble the bag, because what do you mean this girl put her celebrity client, aka Duke Dennis, on blast just for the comments to not be on her side whatsoever. The way clout chasing and a lack of professionalism is going to be a lot of y'all's undoing needs to be studied, because why did this hair stylist get a DM from Duke Dennis to do his hair? They go back and forth, they settle on a date and a time. Now allegedly he didn't confirm his appointment or send a deposit though, so that to me is the first red flag. But I guess the hair stylist was having a fuck it we ball type of moment, because she shuts down the whole salon, prints these flyers with Duke Dennis's name on it, you know, he's a VVIP client, whatever that means. What's sending me though is that these flyers are clearly AI, because who is that? Is that supposed to be Duke Dennis? Baby, that looked like Dennis the Menace. But whatever. As a surprise to absolutely no one but her, Duke Dennis does not show up, right, his appointment was supposed to be between 6:30 and 7:00 o'clock, but he doesn't show up. He's a no-show, the girl stays there for a couple of hours and then she leaves and proceeds to go on social media and put him on blast, and yeah, nobody is on her side. Because why were you acting all thirsty over Duke Dennis? He is a streamer, not an A-list celebrity, and then you exposed his location on top of that. He probably saw the flyer or heard about it via word of mouth and got scared and definitely was not going to compromise his safety by showing up. And then she's complaining about how her time was wasted and how she wasted product by mixing up all the stuff for the detox, but once again, allegedly, his appointment wasn't even confirmed, so why were you doing all of that extra stuff anyways, on top of documenting the whole thing, printing the flyers off, posting it on social media, like she was just dead ass wrong all around. And then Duke is not denying the allegations whatsoever, because he reposted the hair stylist's video and other people's videos talking about the situation. I cannot wait to see what Duke says about this on his next stream. Let me know what y'all think about this situation down below.
