As the clip spread, it quickly made its way to X (formerly Twitter), where the hashtag “#JamesCharles” began trending. Users across the platform expressed shock and disbelief, with many questioning the authenticity of the video. The leak also led to a surge of comments on Charles’ recent Instagram posts, with followers demanding answers and sharing their opinions on the controversy.
While many users on X admitted they had not seen the footage, those who did fueled a hilarious memefest, making the alleged leak the subject of countless jokes and viral posts. One user even claimed to have discovered a second part of the video, urging others through a meme to stop reposting the clips.
As of now, James Charles has not publicly addressed the situation, leaving fans and followers in suspense.
This is not the first time the 25-year-old beauty influencer has found himself at the center of controversy. In 2021, Charles faced serious allegations of grooming minors, which he vehemently denied, stating that the individual involved had initially claimed to be 18 years old. The fallout from these allegations led to a temporary demonetization of his YouTube channel and the loss of several brand deals.
Charles is no stranger to scandal. In 2019, he was involved in a highly publicized feud with fellow beauty YouTuber Tati Westbrook, who accused him of inappropriate behavior towards a waiter in a lengthy video. The controversy resulted in a significant loss of subscribers for Charles, but he eventually managed to bounce back, reflecting on his mistakes in a 2023 interview with Cosmopolitan.
Born on May 23, 1999, in New York, James Charles rose to fame in 2016 when a video of him retaking his senior portrait with a ring light and full makeup went viral. He made history as the first male brand ambassador for CoverGirl at the age of 17 and has since built a successful career as a beauty influencer. Alongside his YouTube channel, Charles launched a clothing line called Sisters Apparel and a makeup collection named the Sister Collection in 2018.
Despite his numerous achievements, Charles’ career has been marked by a series of controversies, with this latest incident potentially reigniting public scrutiny. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how James Charles will navigate this latest challenge.
