JAKARTA - Boxer and YouTuber Jake Paul has been accused of sexual harassment by TikTok star Justine Paradise.
Paul, who is preparing for the third fight of his professional boxing career against former UFC star Ben Askren on April 17, was accused by social media influencers on Friday.
Speaking on her YouTube channel, the 24-year-old accused the YouTuber of forcing her to perform oral sex when they met at Paul's home in Los Angeles in 2019.
"He didn't ask for approval or anything. That's not good. At any level, it's not good", Paradise told the Daily Star on Thursday, April 15.

Paul denied the sexual harassment claims via Twitter. To his 3.8 million followers, the YouTuber said: "These allegations of sexual harassment are not something I or anyone should take lightly, but to be clear, these claims made against me are 100 percent false".
Paul stated that Paradise was part of a grand plan to disrupt his preparations for the fight against Askren.
"Not only have I never had sexual contact with this individual, but this claim is merely a contrived allegation and a blatant attempt to attract attention during my fight week (against Askren)", he added.
"Don't get me wrong, I plan to pursue a defamation case into the law. There is irreparable damage from this type of allegation", Paul continued. More details, Paul's statement can be seen in the Twitter embedded link below.
