Jared Leto has denied his sexual misconduct accusations: 'They are false!'
Jared Leto has denied the sexual misconduct accusations made against him. The 54-year-old Hollywood star was alleged to have inflicted the behaviour on nine women over the course of nearly two decades, and the accusations involve women who say they were teenagers at the time of the alleged incidents but a rep for the actor has now dismissed them completely. The rep told AirMail: "Ms. Teilz's allegations are demonstrably false!" 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 Jared assaulted her when she was 17. She claimed: '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 traumatised by this creep when I was 17." She further alleged Jared 'knew' her age but 'didn't care', describing his actions as 'predatory, terrifying and unacceptable'. A second woman, who remained anonymous, told Air Mail Jared approached her in 2006 when she was 16 at Urth Caffé in Los Angeles. She said: 'I looked down and it was Jared Leto. We had a quick conversation, and he got my number.' And she claimed the actor 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 claimed Leto asked: 'Have you ever had a boyfriend? Have you ever sucked a d***?' Model Laura La Rue, 33, also alleged she met Leto in 2008 when she was 16 and he was 36, at a Yes! on Prop Two animal rights benefit. She said: 'He asked how old I was. I said, 'I'm 16. How old are you?'' La Rue claimed Jared still asked for her number despite knowing her age, and later invited her to his Los Angeles home, where he was 'flirting' and 'teasing (her) the whole time (she) was there.' Jared's representative denied La Rue's and the other accounts to Air Mail, stating: '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.' La Rue denied applying for such a role. More females made leads accusations against Jared to Air Mail, while sources also described parties at his Los Angeles home with a ratio of 60 'very young women to four or five men', where guests were allegedly encouraged to skinny dip. Jared's publicist said the actor 'has not had a drink or used drugs in over 35 years'.

2025 Hyundai Santa Fe price and specs
UPDATED 08/06/2025 8:00am:We've updated this article, first published in December 2024, with recently announced higher pricing for Santa Fe Hybrid models. The fifth-generation Hyundai Santa Fe arrived here in 2024 at first with hybrid power, with a petrol engine joining the range in December. From May 1, 2025, hybrid versions have gotten more expensive, with the gap between petrol and hybrid versions growing from $2500 to $4000. Hyundai Australia confirmed the reason for the price increase was to align the Santa Fe with other models from the brand that offer both petrol and hybrid powertrains. Pricing for petrol-powered Santa Fe variants is unchanged, though the XRT option packages are now $1000 more than at launch. 100s of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. While the Santa Fe's Kia Sorento cousin also offers a turbocharged 1.6-litre hybrid four-cylinder powertrain, it sticks with an older 3.5-litre V6 engine as the petrol option, while additionally offering a 2.2-litre turbo-diesel four. The Santa Fe, in contrast, features a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine, mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, as its base engine. No diesel is available in the latest generation. The turbo-petrol is available across base, Elite and Calligraphy variants like the hybrid, with all-wheel drive available across all. A price-leader front-wheel drive base variant is available at $53,000 before on-road costs, though the Santa Fe range still starts $6950 higher than the previous-generation model. In addition to a lower price and more power than the Santa Fe Hybrid, the petrol-powered Santa Fe also features greater towing capacity (2000kg braked vs 1650kg), though that's still down 500kg on turbo-diesel and V6 petrol versions of the previous-generation Santa Fe. While all Santa Fe models have MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension, there's a difference in brake setup between the 2.5T and Hybrid models. 2.5T models have 345mm x 30mm ventilated front discs and 305mm x 11mm solid rear discs, while hybrids have 325mm x 30mm ventilated front discs and 325mm x 20mm ventilated rear discs. Service pricing is essentially identical between petrol and hybrid variants. 12 months of roadside assist is included, with an additional 12 months each time you service with Hyundai. The Hyundai Santa Fe has a five-star safety rating from ANCAP, based on testing conducted in 2024. Standard safety equipment across the range includes: Elite and Calligraphy models also include: There are three trim levels in the Santa Fe range. The base Santa Fe comes standard with the following equipment: The Santa Fe Elite adds: The Santa Fe Calligraphy adds: All Santa Fe models have the Bluelink suite of connected services. These include: A six-seat configuration with power-adjustable second-row captain's chairs is a $500 option on the Calligraphy only. There are a pair of dealer-installed option packages aimed at improving the Santa Fe's off-road ability. The XRT Adventure Option Pack costs $7990 and includes: The XRT Peak Option Pack costs $10,990 and includes all of the above-mentioned equipment, plus: Metallic and mica premium paint finishes are an extra $750, with matte paint a $1000 option. Supersonic Grey, Forest Green and Pecan Brown interior colourways are a $295 option.
