For those who don’t know, Dream<\/a> is a YouTuber best known for his Minecraft<\/a> videos and all the drama surrounding his controversial speedruns<\/a>. He is also an enigma who has yet to ever publicly reveal his face; something which he has been postponed until after the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

At present, he boasts a combined following of over 32 million fans, with a view count of over 2.2 billion. Beyond this, he is also known to produce his own music and even has a line of clothing merchandise. It would therefore make sense for him to have landed a lucrative partnership deal with McDonald’s – or did he?<\/p>\n

Dream x McDonald’s faked collab<\/h2>\n

Well, as you may have guessed, that certainly was not the case. Following an ingenious (but fake) McDonald’ promotional campaign, YouTuber Liam Bedford suckered Dream’s entire fanbase into thinking that he landed a collaborative deal at the establishment.<\/p>\n

McDonald’s have previously collaborated with influencers, including Travis Scott, BTS and even Rick and Morty. So it wouldn’t be totally unbelievable for McDonald’s to partner with a popular YouTuber.<\/p>\n

Bedford executed his prank nearly perfectly, creating an entirely fake marketing campaign (including professional lookalike ads) for a Dream-inspired McDonald’s meal.<\/p>\n
