In spite of him being so popular now, Duke remembers that their first viral video was one that showed his sister’s chihuahua swimming in a pool. It received around 1.1 million views. Duke began posting his Willy Wonka videos on TikTok in May 2020.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he was bored and decided to do something creative with his time and energy. The idea was derived from the fact that the character Willy Wonka, from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, played by Johnny Depp is Duke’s all-time favorite. He thus decided to pay homage to Willy Wonka and began posting videos emulating the character’s mannerisms.
His initial videos showed him using a blonde wig. However, once he started gaining followers, he switched to a black wig in order to make himself look more authentic. He wears a custom-made red coat, sunglasses, and a hat, to mimic Johnny Depp’s character.
Duke hated his own voice but then used it creatively in his videos. He also uses phrases such as “Oompa Loompas” and “Dear Children” to refer to his fans. He believes he has redefined Willy Wonka by showcasing his naughty side, as TikTok is not too “kid-friendly.”Many of his videos feature his dog, Willy Jr., a chihuahua. Willy Jr.’s real name is Checks.
Duke launched his YouTube channel on May 20, 2020 and it hosts content related to his personal life and his Willy Wonka antics. The channel has gained over 100 thousand subscribers and more than 738 thousand views. The first video on the channel, Going UNDERCOVER as a Fan Page!.
This premiered on June 24, 2020, has gained more than 62 thousand views and over 7 thousand likes. He decided to do a “face reveal” video after gaining a million followers on TikTok. The footage, Willy Wonka Tiktok Face Reveal + Q&A, premiered on YouTube on June 8, 2020, and has gained more than 17 thousand likes and over 221 thousand views.
In August 2020, he collaborated with fellow TikTok creator Lexlyfe on a video where they lip-sync to a scene from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The video earned over 7 million views.
