Did Jack Wright sexualize and slut-shame Sienna Mae? TikToker threatens to file suit
Influencer Sienna Mae Gomez has now fired back at TikToker Jack Wright, her ex, after he accused her of sexual assault. In an op-ed, Gomez said that Wright's allegation painted her into the "loud, crazy, and overly sexualized" stereotype of young Latina women. She has also denied Wright's allegations against her, accusing him of "slut-shaming" her and misconstructing several parts of their relationship.
"As someone I loved and still love, I’m devastated that he made me sound crazy and twisted so many things out of context in his most recent video, to the point of literally painting me into the “loud”, “crazy”, “overly sexualized” stereotype that people try to use on young, especially Latina, women," Gomez said. She further said there is a "counterpoint for every point Jack made in his video" and claimed that she indeed do "some things wrong and sloppy as a 16/17 year old girl who felt love for a guy". She also alleged that the accusations of assault are "fictitious" and an "act of slander".

"All Jack and I ever did was kiss. I have never seen, felt or touched him naked. We spent several nights at the Hype House together but I never grabbed him asleep or awake. Yet I’m still being called a “rapist” across the internet by those who don’t understand the meaning of the word," Gomez said. "I want this madness to end," she added. "I want people to think before they comment unnecessary, hateful things on my socials, on my friends’ socials and on Jack’s socials. I’m tired of seeing people that I don’t know jump on the hate train and make up lies."
"I’m confused that people say 'arrest her' when there has been no involvement by police, no investigations, and no legal action other than mine since this all began," Gomez said. She added that her attorneys might file a defamation lawsuit against Wright because that it is "the best next step to clear your name".
The pair had traveled to Hawaii in May 2021, and Gomez claimed that "something on this trip was different". "Everywhere we went he introduced me as his 'girl' but then take pictures and blatantly flirt with other people," she said. "I was jealous, but more than that I was confused — why was I here? Why was he introducing me as his counterpart, telling me to wait patiently to be together, if he didn’t really want any of it?" "And then — without producers and cameras around for the first time in months — it really hit me. He liked me when he needed me for a video or for work, but he didn’t like me otherwise," she added.
Gomez said that since the Internet was under the impression that the two were in a romantic relationship, she had asked Wright to make a video with her clarifying that they were just friends. "I told him that if he didn’t have real feelings for me, I wanted to set the record straight publicly about our relationship," she said. "He told me we had brand partnerships riding on our fake one, and that it wasn’t fair to him. I couldn’t believe that someone who I had created with, laughed with, and cried with could so easily disregard my feelings for the sake of money."
Addressing the video of her and Jack kissing, she said, "He narrated the whole thing to make it look like it was something it wasn’t. To be clear, [Wright's brother] James took the video as a joke on his Snapchat seven months earlier and they decided to resurface it." "I would like to think that neither Mason nor James realized the impact that their tweets and the taken-out-of-context video would have. Though they took it all down, it really didn’t matter. The damage had been done," she continued. Gomez alleged that after the video was released, her "character" was a "topic of public opinion" for months. The video, she said, led to her losing brand deals, friends and allegedly left her with a damaged reputation.
A video posted on June 3, Thursday, showed Sienna Mae Gomez groping Jack Wright, who in the video seemed to be unconscious. It was posted two days after she had posted an update on YouTube claiming all allegations made against her were false. The video, posted on TikTok, has now been deleted.
