Alexander Wang says the escalating accusations of sexual assault lodged against him are false.

This week, fashion watchdog group Diet Prada and Instagram account Shit Model Management posted a number of stories of purported misconduct after model Owen Mooney alleged that the designer groped him at a New York City nightclub in 2017. Mooney shared the story on TikTok, and while he didn’t reveal the perpetrator’s name at first, he named Wang after commenters guessed who it was.

“I was by myself at one point and this guy next to me obviously took advantage of the fact that no one could fucking move and he just started, like, touching me up, Mooney said in the video. “And fully like, up my leg, in my crotch, like it made me freeze completely because I was in such shock. I looked to my left to see who it was and it was this really famous fashion designer. Like, I couldn’t believe that he was doing that to me. It made me go into even more shock. It was really fucked up.”

Wang denied the allegations via a rep, who shared a statement with Page Six Style: “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. Seeing these lies about me being perpetuated as truths has been infuriating.”

He 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.”

Shit Model Management and Diet Prada reported that other accusers said he made unwanted sexual advances on them as well. Some said he gave them drinks which they believed could have been laced with drugs.

The designer is close with a number of high-profile celebrities like Gigi and Bella Hadid, Hailey Baldwin, Kendall Jenner, and Kaia Gerber.

https://ift.tt/3qSH1Ig Nos encontramos ante un contexto económico y empresarial sin precedentes en nuestra historia moderna . La crisis provocada por la pandemia ha hecho que el Gobierno se haya visto obligado a poner en marcha una serie de medidas con el fin de preservar la financiación de pymes y autónomos y evitar que una crisis de liquidez pueda poner en riesgo su viabilidad, entre las que destacan los créditos ICO . Sin embargo, la banca no lo está poniendo nada fácil . Según las últimas estadísticas del Banco de España , correspondientes al mes de enero de 2021, la TAE de las nuevas operaciones de financiación de cuantía inferior a los 250.000 euros, que se suele asociar con las pymes y los autónomos, se situó en enero en el 3,48 por ciento TAE, casi un punto más que en el mes de diciembre de 2020 (2,55 por ciento TAE). Este repunte se explica fundamentalmente por un mayor volumen de comisiones aplicadas en los préstamos y créditos bancarios. De hecho, el TEDR (la TAE excluyen...

Colorado High School Coach Says He Was Forced to Resign Because He’s Gay

-
https://ift.tt/Oj01b3 Colorado high school students are demonstrating in support of Inoke Tonga, a volleyball coach who claims he was forced to resign from his job because of his sexuality.  According to the  Denver Post , Tonga left his position at Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch, where he had coached the volleyball team during the 2020-2021 school year. The coach said he intended to continue his role for the upcoming season, but was essentially pressured to leave his job after school administrators found out he was gay through his social media activity. Tonga says administrators had called him in for a meeting, in which they expressed their concerns over his sexuality and the affect it may have on the students. “I sat in the room being grilled about how being gay is a ‘danger’ to the school and to the kids,” Tonga wrote on Instagram. “That with me ‘identifying as a gay man, they can’t put the kids at risk by having me in front of them.’” He cont...
