Nine women have accused Jared Leto of inappropriate behavior and sexual misconduct.
In an
Air Mail
story published over the weekend, nine women, the majority of whom are anonymous, gave interviews that outlined a pattern of inappropriate and predatory behavior by the 53-year-old actor and musician. Some say they were underage at the time they came in contact with Leto, who for decades has fronted the popular rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars.
The women allege a longstanding pattern of such behavior.
'It's been an open secret for a long time,' an anonymous woman told the outlet.
Among the allegations, Leto is accused of asking sexual questions to a 16-year-old girl, walking out of a room nude in front of a 17-year-old girl and exposing himself and fapping before putting an 18-year-old's hand "on him."
One of the sources is a model named Laura La Rue who claims that she met Leto at an animal rights benefit in Beverly Hills, Calif., in 2008.
She was 16 years old at the time to Leto's 36.
La Rue claims Leto was observing her so intensely that her mother noticed. After asking how old she was, Leto also allegedly asked for her telephone number, which she provided out of a believe that he would be good for her burgeoning modeling career.
Months later, she visited him at his home. 'I remember him teasing me the whole time I was there. He was flirting with me. He'd lean in close, then pull away, like it was a game,' she told Air Mail.
She continued to visit Leto for months, and during one of those visits, Leto appeared from a room nude. 'He just walked out, dick out, like it was normal,' said La Rue, who was 17 at the time.
The Oscar winning actor's rep told Air Mail that La Rue applied to work as Leto's personal assistant — a claim the model denies — and that further underscores 'the absence of anything inappropriate in any of their interactions.'
Another source, an anonymous actress, told Air Mail that she met Leto when she was underage though she visited his house. After she turned 18, the visits turned sexual.
The woman claims that Leto exposed himself and fapped before grabbing her hand and put it on him. Leto's rep shot down the allegations: 'All of the allegations are expressly denied.'
The piece also published a viral Twitter post shared by actor Dylan Sprouse in 2018. It reads: 'Yo Jared Leto, now that you've slid into the DMs of every female model aged 18-25, what would you say your success rate is?' Filmmaker and DC chief James Gunn replied: 'He starts at 18 on the internet?'.
Leto next stars in Disney's blockbuster "Tron: Ares."
