Unraveling the Allegations: Jared Leto's Denial over Sexual Misconduct Claims
Jared Leto denies allegations made by several females
Hollywood heartthrob Jared Leto is grappling with a storm of sexual misconduct accusations levied by several women. According to a report from "Air Mail," as mentioned in "People" magazine, nine women have accused the 53-year-old actor and musician of inappropriate behavior, with some claiming they were minors at the time. However, Leto's team vehemently denies these allegations.
Take a trip down memory lane as Jared Leto made a name for himself in the 90s as both an actor and musician. He gained considerable acclaim, bagging numerous awards such as an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in the drama "Dallas Buyers Club" and a Golden Globe for the same role in 2014. Apart from his film endeavors, Leto is known as the frontman of the rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars, which he established alongside his brother Shannon Leto towards the end of the 90s.
Even as the allegations unfold, let's dip into the specifics. The incidents, according to reports, stretch back to the early 2000s, when Jared Leto's inappropriate behavior was reportedly an "open secret." Some women claim he would text sexual remarks to teenage models. Alarmed by such reports, in 2006, a woman alleged that Leto approached her outside a Los Angeles café at the age of 16, while he was accompanied by actress Ashley Olsen at the time. Similar incidents occurred in 2008, when a model alleged that she met Leto at an animal rights event and reportedly encountered his flirtatious behavior and nudity at his studio.
More troubling allegations surfaced in 2012, when DJ Allie Teilz shared a post on Facebook detailing her alleged assault by Leto when she was 17. She described his behavior as "predatory, terrifying, and unacceptable." In June 2025, nine women came forward with detailed accusations of sexual misconduct, including instances involving minors aged 14 to 18.
The specific allegations against Leto include phone calls and conversations that turned sexual after the refusal of an invitation to a party. Another woman alleged that during a visit to Leto's home when she was 18, he exposed himself and asked her to perform sexual acts. Multiple accusers described Leto's behavior as predatory and terrifying, with some claiming he targeted underage girls.
Despite these serious claims, Leto's team maintains a strong denial of all allegations. They claim that Leto has refrained from alcohol and drugs for over 35 years. In response to a model's claim that Leto appeared nude at his studio, his team stated that the model had applied to be his personal assistant, a claim the model denies.
The ongoing allegations against Jared Leto highlight a pattern of behavior that has been described as predatory and inappropriate, particularly towards underage individuals. The denials from Leto's team have not (yet) alleviated the concerns of those who stand accusing him.
