Internet personality Yousef “Fousey” Erakat, known for his high-profile controversies, has publicly responded to an explosive allegation leveled by his former manager. On November 4, 2024, the Palestinian-American content creator took to X (formerly Twitter) to address accusations that he had assaulted a woman. Fousey revealed that his ex-manager informed his current company, alleging he had “raped a girl last night.” However, he refuted the claim, saying he spoke with the woman in question, who reportedly dismissed the accusation.
In his post, Fousey wrote, “An ex-manager texted my company today saying I r*ped a girl last night. Just got off (the) phone with her. She was flabbergasted and said she had the best sex and asked if I needed to be picked up as I’m alone.” Fousey also claimed that his former assistant informed him that “all” of his employees had resigned from his team. He took to social media, humorously responding with a lengthy “Hahahahahahahahahaha,” followed by a series of snake emojis, posted from a holding cell.

As expected, the social media exchange quickly went viral. Fans and critics alike weighed in, with one X user, @DEACONLEES, suggesting that Fousey should take legal action if the allegations against him were false. To this, Fousey responded with defiance, writing, “When I’m out, I’m taking her and the other 5 girls I had sex with on a shopping spree. G7x s**t.”
On the same day, Fousey posted a video on X claiming he was detained by authorities in Australia. In the minute-long video, he criticized his team’s lack of support, noting that neither his manager, therapist, nor lawyer had contacted him or visited him during his detainment. Fousey expressed frustration with Australian law enforcement, accusing them of needlessly responding to prank calls directed at him. “You guys are wasting police resources and money by coming out every single time you get a prank call about me,” he said, adding that the authorities had already investigated a previous complaint just days earlier.
In the video, Fousey vented his exasperation, suggesting that law enforcement should streamline communication, possibly by liaising with his management team rather than responding to every complaint. “Are you dumb or stupid? Pick one! It has to be one of them. It might be both!” he added heatedly.

Unfazed by his situation, Fousey asserted his resilience, even declaring his willingness to endure a prison sentence if necessary. “You think I’m scared of jail? Put me in jail for the next seven years, I’ll pray five times a day, walk out with a smile on my face, and say… I’m a Palestinian Muslim king!” he proclaimed, further underlining his steadfastness.
This latest controversy follows another recent revelation in which Fousey publicly shared that he had severed ties with his therapist and distanced himself from family members after being banned from the streaming platform Kick. Known for his unfiltered personality, Fousey’s statement has once again sparked intense debate among his followers, fueling discussions on both his mental health and the controversies surrounding him. As the fallout from these incidents continues, it remains to be seen how Fousey’s public image and career will be impacted.
