Jared Leto accused of sexual misconduct by MULTIPLE women... and several were allegedly minors
Jared Leto is facing allegations from nine women of inappropriate behavior, including with teenage girls. The frontman of 30 Seconds to Mars and star of films including House Of Gucci and Suicide Squad, 53, is alleged to have inflicted the behavior on them over the course of nearly two decades, and the accusations involve women who say they were teenagers at the time of the alleged incidents. According to an exposé published by Air Mail, the claims, which have apparently circulated in Hollywood for years, have now been brought into the open, with one woman stating to the outlet: 'It's been an open secret for a long time.' Reps for Leto haven't yet responded to request for comment, but a representative denied all of the women's claims in a statement to Air Mail. The accusations came to light after Los Angeles–based DJ Allie Teilz, 30, re-shared a 2012 Facebook post on her Instagram Stories, in which she alleged Leto — who was previously called out by other Hollywood stars for being 'full of himself' — assaulted her when she was 17. 'You're not really in LA until Jared Leto tries to force himself on you backstage… in a kilt… And a snow hat,' she claimed. 'I was assaulted and traumatized by this creep when I was 17.' The accusations in a story by Air Mail include allegations of sexual assault, while others claim Leto made unwanted sexual advances at them, even after he allegedly knew they were underage; pictured in September 2024 in Paris She further alleged that Leto 'knew' her age but 'didn't care,' describing his actions as 'predatory, terrifying and unacceptable.' A second woman, whose name was not revealed, told the publication that Leto approached her in 2006 when she was 16 at Urth Caffé in Los Angeles. At the time, he was allegedly visiting the popular cafe with Ashley Olsen, whom he had been rumored to be in a relationship with at the time. 'I looked down and it was Jared Leto. We had a quick conversation, and he got my number,' she claimed. The woman alleged that he called her days later, adding: 'I don't know if he was on drugs or what… it was the weirdest, grossest voice… [but] for me, it's Jared, you know?' The woman alleged their late-night conversations 'turned sexual,' and she claimed that Leto asked questions including, 'Have you ever had a boyfriend?' and 'Have you ever sucked a d***?' Model Laura La Rue, 33, also alleged that she met Leto in 2008, when she was 16 and he was 36, at a Yes! on Prop Two animal rights benefit. 'He asked how old I was,' she alleged. 'I said, "I'm 16. How old are you?"' La Rue claimed to Air Mail that Leto still asked for her number despite knowing her age, and she said he later invited her to his Los Angeles home, where he was 'flirting' and 'teasing [her] the whole time [she] was there.' She even alleged that Leto walked into a room she was in while completely naked at one point, as if 'it was normal.' 'I thought maybe this was just what adult men do,' La Rue added. Leto's representative denied all of the women's accounts in a statement to 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.' But La Rue denied applying for such a role. Sources quoted in the article described parties at Leto's Los Angeles home and said they had a ratio of 60 'very young women to four or five men,' and they claimed that guests were encouraged to go skinny dipping at the events. Jared's publicist stated that the actor 'has not had a drink or used drugs in over 35 years.' A fourth woman who went nameless claimed she met Leto at an 18-plus club when she was 20. However, it was his assistant who allegedly approached her to ask for her phone number. She said they 'hook[ed] up a little' while still at the club, and she alleged that she subsequently spent time at his home on multiple occasions, but she described Leto as being 'weird.' 'I know some people are kinky, and that's fine,' she said, before adding that 'his kind of kink ... just didn't feel right.' Another unnamed accuser said she began a flirtatious back-and-forth over text messages with Leto when she was still a minor. During her alleged visits to his home, he would ask her sexual questions, including, 'Do any of the little boys you hang out with f*** you?' She said their relationship escalated after she turned 18, and Leto allegedly 'pulled his penis out and started masturbating' during a subsequent visit to his home. She claimed that the Blade Runner 2049 actor put her hand on his penis and told her, 'I want you to spit on it.' In 2016, Leto was reported to have sent his Suicide Squad costars used condoms as a gift that might have been sent by his character in the film, the Joker. But Leto subsequently denied that part of the report in a 2017 SiriusXM interview. 'There were some things that were mentioned about gifts and the fact that I was giving used condoms to people, which was not true. It was not true,' he said. However, the actor did admit to sending them gifts that were 'funny,' 'absurd or outrageous.' In a 2016 interview with E! Online, his costar Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who played Killer Croc, said that Leto had sent him 'sticky Playboy magazines' as part of his character's gift, and he also allegedly sent the entire cast a 'dead pig.' 'That was a good gift because it had the effect of unifying us as a group because then it became us against him,' Akinnuoye-Agbaje said. 'We sent the messenger back with the dead pig and our own personalized message. It got the ball rolling.'
