Most high school gyms are used for basketball games, pep rallies, and the occasional awkward school assembly. One San Diego-area campus learned the hard way that theirs had just been used for something very different.
Over the weekend, Twitch streamer PayMoneyWubby — who goes by “Wubby” — filmed a 24-hour, Fansly-sponsored game show inside Canyon Crest Academy’s gym. According to reports published Monday, December 8, students only realized what had happened after clips from the stream went viral and they recognized their own school logo and gym setup in the background.
“It feels nasty. It's gross. I'm astonished,” student Giordano Bruno told NBC San Diego. “I can't believe my school would let a bunch of basically semi, like, porn stars come to the school and film on my campus.”
The event, called "24 Hour Tag," featured a group of streamers competing in challenges and “punishments” while adult-content models from Fansly appeared on set. One student said they tuned in out of curiosity and were stunned by what popped up on screen. “The first thing I see is a full-grown adult, an adult man wearing a baby costume and being fed milk from a baby bottle. I was like, okay that’s kind of weird,” Parker Jaconette explained. “We check on it again a couple hours later, and there's another dude who's eating chocolate off of the feet of not-safe-for-work content creators or adult film content creators.”
For some, the fallout from seeing that content hit almost immediately. Student Brian Cheng said he had to play a basketball game in the same gym just days later and felt the incident damaged the school’s reputation. “We're known for, like, studying and academics — not really like this OnlyFans stuff,” Cheng said. “I want them to, like, renovate every single inch of the gym, make sure, like, every inch is cleaned. I don't want to even walk on that.”
Principal Brett Killeen addressed the situation in an email to families Sunday, calling the production “inappropriate, distasteful, and in conflict with our organization’s core values.” He also wrote that the district was reviewing options with legal counsel and working to strengthen facility-use oversight going forward.
PayMoneyWubby, however, pushed back. In a statement obtained by NBC San Diego, he said the event complied with the terms of the contract. “We had a wonderful and very successful event that fully complied with our contractual agreements,” the internet personality said, adding that due to “threats of litigation,” he could not comment further.
He referred additional questions to his attorney, Jason Brower, who defended the production more forcefully. Brower said the contract was “exceedingly clear” and insisted there was no violation. “This was fully disclosed as to the individuals and activities involved, including sponsorship by Fansly,” Brower said. “Any insinuation which was made by the school and the foundation that they were unaware is both incorrect and potentially defamatory.”
The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation, which approved the rental, acknowledged failures on its end. Executive Director Regina Twomey said the specific nature of the production was not disclosed in advance and admitted the foundation failed to provide adequate oversight. She said the rental was approved based on a show summary that indicated “PG-13 content” and that standard procedures were followed, including a signed contract and independent security.
While this situation shocked a lot of Canyon Crest students, it isn’t the first time livestream culture has spilled into real-world backlash. In May, Kai Cenat’s “Streamer University” drew criticism over alleged favoritism in admissions and on-campus chaos, and Cosmopolitan reported one participant was even sent to the hospital after being injured during a water-gun battle.
