Jared Leto is denying allegations of years-long “sexual impropriety” brought forth by multiple women, including DJ and music producer Allie Teilz, who recently resurfaced her more than decade-old claims against the actor.

In an Air Mail exposé published on Saturday, nine accusers shared their stories of Leto’s alleged misconduct with younger women, some who claim they were underage.

“It’s been an open secret for a long time,” one anonymous woman told the outlet.

Model Laura La Rue said she met Leto in 2008, when she was 16 and he was 36. Despite her being underage, which La Rue claims Leto knew, he asked her for number and things quickly took a sexual turn, she said. She described one incident while she visiting him when she was 17, alleging Leto “just walked out, d– out, like it was normal.”

A representative for Leto denied that allegation, saying their interactions involved “nothing sexual or inappropriate.” They further claimed that La Rue “later applied to work as Mr. Leto’s personal assistant, further underscoring the absence of anything inappropriate.”

Another accuser similarly recalled meeting Leto while underage. She described a time, after she’d turned 18, when they were at Leo’s house and he “suddenly pulled his penis out and started masturbating … grabbed my hand, and put it on him.”

The exposé, titled “The Cult of Leto,” is filled with similar accusations against the 53-year-ol. The women accuse him of preying on cute, young girls, several of whom they say were recruited to attend his parties in the mid-2000s.

A representative for the Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman “expressly denied” all the allegations in the story.

The exposé comes less than two months after a viral Instagram story from Teilz, who reupped a 2012 claim that she was “assaulted and traumatized” by Leto when she was 17. “He knew my age and didn’t care. What he did was predatory, terrifying and unacceptable,” she said.

She then received dozens of replies from women who shared their own experiences with the actor — some claiming he was inappropriate with them when they were as young as 14. Teilz reposted those replies, all of which can be read in her Story Highlight.

Representatives for Leto did not immediately respond to a Daily News request for comment.
