Jonah Hill was accused of “predatory behavior” by former Zoey 101 child star Alexa Nikolas in a thread posted to Twitter over the weekend, in which she recounted an incident from when she was 16.
Nikolas’ comments were prompted by a series of recent Instagram posts from Hill’s former girlfriend Sarah Brady, in which she accused the actor of being an “emotionally abusive” and “misogynistic narcissist.”
Nikolas wrote in her first tweet on July 8: “Having read Sarah Brady’s amazing post about #JonahHill, I just have to say that when I was 16 I was invited to a house party at #justinlong’s house where he was dating a lame predator actor CSI lived together.” Miami. I’ll look up the name later and find it.”
Nikolas claimed the CSI Miami actor was “asleep.” [with] *aka assaulting a minor*,” a friend of hers who “was also 16 to 17 years old” who later identified him as Jonathan Togo.
Hill and Togo representatives did not immediately respond to Deadline’s request for comment.
“Anyway,” Nikolas continued, “eventually #JonahHill came by and we were all pretty bummed because of course the predators poured us loads of alcohol when we were underage.” #jonahhill seemed to have his eye on me because eventually wanted I smoked a cigarette and he said he had one “right outside” in his car. It didn’t seem like too much of a hassle, so I trusted him. I went outside and he grabbed the cigarettes from his front seat.”
Nikolas explained that Hill “didn’t give me the cigarette, which I found odd, and then when we walked back to the door I asked him about it and he didn’t say anything, just slammed me on the door and stuck his tongue down my throat. “I was so horrified that I pushed him off me and ran inside.”
She noted that Hill had told her she had to come outside with him if she “wanted the cigarette” — that he “didn’t want to go “all alone.” The actress added, “They all knew I was 16.”
Nikolas said: “This type of predatory behavior was highly normalized when I was growing up. I am proud to see that women are now standing up to abusive men. Tough!”
Nikolas then called Togo’s then-roommate, actor Justin Long, who is said to have been at the scene the night Hill allegedly encountered him, citing the New Line horror film Barbarian, in which he starred . “Hey Justin Long, I find it interesting that you play as a predator in Barbarian. It must have been weird playing some of your friends. You knew your roommate was abusing a minor under your own roof. you made it happen Eek. I hope you regret it now.”
When asked by Deadline, a spokesperson for Long wrote, “This is the first time Justin has been made aware of this situation that allegedly happened nearly two decades ago.” While Justin sympathizes with all victims of any abuse, the simple fact remains that he has no knowledge of what may or may not have happened in relation to Ms. Nikolas.”
The actress wrote via Twitter: “Men in Hollywood have traumatized me. It’s really sad what traumatic events have taken hold of my body and mind. Things have to change. F**k #familyguy too.”

He was sleeping *so attacked a minor*, a friend of mine who was also 16 or 17 years old. However. #JonahHill came by at some point and we were all pretty exhausted because of course the predators poured a lot of alcohol into us underage people.

#jonahhill seemed to have his eye on me because at one point I wanted a cigarette and he said he had one in his car “right outside”. It didn’t seem like too much of a hassle, so I trusted him. I went outside and he grabbed the cigarettes from his front seat.

Just a note #JonahHill said if I wanted the cigarette I would have to come outside with him to get it. He didn’t want to go “all alone”. They all knew I was 16.

This type of predatory behavior was highly normalized during my childhood. I am proud to see that women are now standing up to abusive men. Tough!
