In January 2018, jeremstar found himself embroiled in a dark affair on social networks. The YouTuber was accused of luring underage young men into having sex with him later. Pascal Cardona, also known as Babybel. Very serious accusations which were accompanied by videos and recordings. It is another blogger who is at the origin of this scandal, Aqababe. A rival whom Jeremstar sued for defamation and public insults, since he had called him a “whore”, “little female dog” or “dirty bastard” on social networks. And this Thursday, June 2, 2022, the verdict was delivered. Aniss Z., alias Aqababe was sentenced by the Paris Criminal Court to pay 12,000 euros in damages to Jeremstar and to pay a fine of 2,000 euros.
“I am very happy with this decision“, he declared on the telephone to our colleagues of the Parisian. It must be said that Jeremstar had a hard time because of this affair, he who met however at that time a great success with his interviews in his bathtub and his interventions in Sunday Earthlings with Thierry Ardisson. But now, at the beginning of 2018, it’s the descent into hell, he has to leave the C8 program. Aqababe had decided to take revenge after accusing Jeremstar of stealing a video about reality TV contestants from him. He first published images of himself masturbating and then denounced Pascal Cardonna as predatory towards minors.
Finally, after three years, Jérémy Gisclon, his real name, was cleared by the courts, which held “no offense” against him. Pascal Cardonna was sentenced last January to two years in prison, including eighteen months suspended probation for sexual assault on a minor. There was only one thing left for Jeremstar to do: file a complaint against Aqababe for defamation and harassment. The investigation for harassment is still being studied by the Paris prosecutor’s office, but that for defamation has therefore been judged. Aqababe’s lawyer, Me Mathieu Davy, has announced that he wants to appeal.
