He made the accusations in a 17-minute video

TikToker Jack Wright has accused fellow social media star Sienna Mae Gomez of sexually assaulting him. It comes after a video appears to show Gomez straddling, groping and kissing him whilst he was drunk. Wright, who is 17, shared a 17-minute video on his Youtube channel titled "What Sienna Mae Did to Me", in which he made the accusations against Gomez, who he had previously collaborated with. He accused the 18-year-old, who he had been friends with at high school, of four instances of assault, including the one caught on video in Hawaii in May 2021. In his video, Wright says: "The Hawaii incident happened where I was passed out, unconscious almost like the whole night. She got on top of me, took advantage of me, groped me." He added that he was "so glad" that his friends managed to "pull her off" him.

"I was at a party, like passed out on the couch," Wright recalled. "When they told me about what happened they said they pulled her off of me.

"Another friend got in an argument with Sienna saying, 'you can't do that. Jack doesn't like you like that.'"

He continued: "That night she posted a 15 part aggressive video gaslighting everything about what happened, how much she loved me and that I was using her for clout - which was all lies. It was [what] typical gaslighting to a victim is."

One of Wright's friends, Lachlan Hannemann, posted a video saying he was the friend that pulled Sienna Mae off Wright, while condemning her behavior. https://www.instagram.com/p/CY9zlC1FqlM/ Gomez has denied all the allegations, claiming she and Wright were in a "consensual and cordial" relationship. She has accused him of "slut shaming" her. She provided a statement to Yahoo which reads: "Not only are these attacks baseless and false, the release of his most recent video is indicative of the public narrative that Jack and some of his friends hope to use as a crutch to further their lies. "Jack and his collaborators have attempted to utilize blatant slut shaming culture to justify their fictitious claims and have effectively victimized a successful woman of color in a way that, regrettably, we have seen many times before, all in an effort to use her suffering as a catalyst for their own personal gain "Those who have collaborated in this act of slander did so with the motivation to further associate themselves with Sienna after their professional relationship, and therefore their claim to any portion of her substantial success, were terminated."
