Actor Jared Leto is facing serious allegations from nine women, with claims of inappropriate behavior—some involving minors, according to a report by Air Mail.
Jared, who is well-known for his work with the House of Gucci and the Justice League, has been charged with sexual assault after a victim decided to come forward and openly discuss her experience.
Los Angeles-based DJ Allie Teilz took to her Instagram Stories and shared a previous Facebook post from 2012. She stated, “You’re not really in L.A. until Jared Leto tries to force himself on you backstage… In a kilt.. And a snow hat. I was assaulted and traumatized by this creep when I was 17.” She also claimed that Jared Leto was aware of her age but chose to disregard it, describing his actions as "predatory, terrifying, and completely unacceptable."
Model Laura La Rue, who first met Jared Leto in 2008 when she was 16 and he was 36, has accused him of inappropriate behaviour.
Laura told Air Mail that Leto enquired about her age and still asked for her phone number even after realising she was a minor. She also said she was uncomfortable with his behaviour when she visited his house in Los Angeles in 2009.
Replying to Laura's social media post, Leto’s representative told Air Mail, “Their communications contain nothing sexual or inappropriate and Ms. La Rue later applied to work as Mr. Leto’s personal assistant, further underscoring the absence of anything inappropriate in any of their interactions."
Another woman has made grave accusations against Jared Leto, saying that he started flirting with her when she was still a minor and that after she turned 18, their exchanges became more intimate. She told Air Mail about a visit to his house where she claimed Leto acted in a very inappropriate way.
Additionally, Laura La Rue has clarified that she never applied for a role in connection to her interactions with Leto.
