DDG has apologized to AriAtHome after a man interrupted the creator’s acceptance speech at the 2026 <a href="https://comicvibe.com/2026-streamer-awards-winners-ishowspeed-kai-cenat-vanillamace-and-more/" title="2026 Streamer Awards Winners: IShowSpeed, Kai Cenat, Vanillamace, and More”>Streamer Awards to declare that DDG should have won Best Music Streamer.
AriAtHome won the award on November 12, beating DDG, PlaqueBoyMax and Bishu. He was thanking the people who supported his music when a man climbed onto the stage and took the microphone.

“I’m sorry imma let you finish but DDG had the best music of all time,” the man said. “DDG the best music artist of all time.”
The interruption echoed Kanye West’s infamous 2009 MTV Video Music Awards moment, when he interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech to argue that Beyoncé deserved the award. QTCinderella later stepped in and asked the room to show respect, while AriAtHome continued his speech.

DDG distances himself from interruption
DDG addressed the incident on X, making it clear that he had no involvement in the stunt.
“I do not co-sign or approve of what happened during ur award bro,” DDG wrote. “ur very talented and clearly deserved it. My apologies.”

AriAtHome responded to DDG with “nothing but love bro,” suggesting the interruption had not caused a personal feud between the two nominees.

The incident continued to spread after yoxic shared footage that appeared to show the stage crasher’s point of view through recording sunglasses. The post also claimed he argued with Marlon while leaving the venue.
Despite DDG’s apology, the person behind the interruption later doubled down. A post from the @NotQuiteLikeDuB account read, “i won’t ever apologize for being REAL . . .”
