Yousef "Fousey" Erakat, controversial streamer and internet personality, responded to a serious accusation from his former manager, who alleged that Fousey had raped a woman. Taking to the social media platform X on November 4, 2024, Fousey denied the claims, stating that he had contacted the alleged victim, who reportedly expressed surprise at the accusation. “An ex-manager texted my company today saying I r*ped a girl last night,” Fousey wrote, adding that the woman told him she “had the best sex” and asked if he needed help. The former YouTube prankster’s post quickly went viral, drawing widespread attention and sparking mixed reactions.

Fousey, who was recently banned from the streaming platform Kick, shared further updates on social media, revealing that his ex-assistant informed him that all of his employees had quit in response to the accusations. Fousey added humorously, “Hahahahahahahahahaha,” followed by a series of snake emojis, and stated plans to take several women on a shopping spree upon his release.
As comments poured in, some users suggested Fousey take legal action if the accusations were unfounded. In response to one commenter, Fousey hinted at his resolve, stating, “You think I’m scared of jail?” He also posted a video explaining his recent detention in Australia, calling out what he described as a misuse of police resources due to prank calls.
Fousey’s recent actions, which include firing his therapist and cutting off contact with family, have only added to the polarizing reactions from fans. The incident comes amidst Fousey’s ongoing legal and personal battles, as he continues to grapple with online backlash and mounting controversies.
