That changed at the 2019 Coachella music festival, when Charles did a sponsored post with SugarBear Hair - a rival hair vitamin gummy brand to Westbrook's own Halo Beauty. Westbrook, now 38, is a long-time beauty YouTuber who often collaborated with Charles and had a close personal relationship with him. Westbrook first accused Charles of trying to sexually manipulate straight men in an explosive, since-deleted video on her YouTube channel in May 2019. The direct messages shared with Insider show Star sending messages back and forth with the fan between May 13, 2019, and June 26, 2019, as the drama between him, Westbrook, and Charles waged on. Star started deleting the tweets after accusing Charles of preying on straight men in 2019 Insider confirmed the exchange began one day after Star had accused Charles of being a "predator" and a "danger to society." The fan came forward after sexual assault allegations against Star were documented in an October Insider investigation. The former fan says those screenshots were how he located Star's tweets before sending them to the celebrity. In some of the deleted tweets, Star bragged about his sexual conquests with straight men, sexualized a straight minor, and joked about wanting to be "raped" by straight men, the former fan told Insider, pointing to screenshots of 22 of the since-deleted tweets that had circulated on social media. Insider was able to confirm the identity of the former fan, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of professional repercussions, through his verified accounts. In exchange for his assistance, Star promised in the leaked messages, but later rescinded, tickets to one of Star's Masterclass events. Insider learned of the coordinated effort to delete the tweets after a former fan of Star's shared a series of direct messages with Star that appear to show him helping Star identify which tweets to delete.
