An Insider investigation suggests that it wasn't all an act: Several former associates say Star engaged in violent and abusive behavior on multiple occasions during the late 2000s, including multiple allegations of sexual assault. Earlier this week, leaked documents appeared to show a Jeffree Star Cosmetics executive paying one of Star's sexual assault accusers $45,000 days after he retracted his allegations to Insider. Star has yet to address the leaked documents, and his legal team has previously denied allegations of violence and sexual assault.
