In response to the big claims, Wang called them “grotesquely false” in a statement to PEOPLE Magazine: “Over the last few days, I have been on the receiving end of baseless and grotesquely false accusations. These claims have been wrongfully amplified by social media accounts infamous for posting defamatory material from undisclosed and/or anonymous sources with zero evidence or any fact-checking whatsoever,” Wang said.
He added, “Seeing these lies about me being perpetuated as truths has been infuriating,” Wang continued. “I have never engaged in the atrocious behavior described and would never conduct myself in the manner that’s been alleged. I intend to get to the bottom of this and hold accountable whoever is responsible for originating these claims and viciously spreading them online.
The major claims came to light after model and graphic designer Owen Mooney took to TikTok to share his alleged encounter with Wang in 2017, describing how he “froze” when he alleged that Wang groped his crotch during a concert in New York City. On Wednesday, another young man told DailyMail.com that Wang was “aggressive” and performed sex acts on him back in August while he was in a blacked out state, in a packed club and later that night in an Uber.
