Four women accuse actor and Thirty Seconds to Mars singer Jared Leto of criminal sexual conduct involving them when they were teenagers, including alleged sexual assault, threats, sex with a 17-year-old in California, and sexually explicit calls to a 16-year-old. The BBC documentary includes testimony from ten women, with several accounts supported by friends, relatives, photographs, messages and a non-disclosure agreement that one woman refused to sign. Former band staff describe discomfort with Leto's interactions with young women and backstage recruitment practices. Leto did not respond to the BBC's repeated requests for comment and has previously denied similar allegations.

Ten women told a BBC documentary about alleged sexual misconduct by Jared Leto between 2002 and 2016, when some were teenagers and Leto was in his thirties or forties. Four women describe alleged criminal conduct, including sexual assault, an encounter involving a 17-year-old in California, a sexual threat, and explicit calls to a 16-year-old; others report similar calls or inappropriate behavior. The BBC says it corroborated parts of several accounts through relatives, friends, photographs, messages and former members of Leto’s team, and obtained a nondisclosure agreement allegedly sent to one woman. Leto initially did not respond to the BBC but later said the accusations were absolutely and categorically false.
