Justine Elizabeth (born: March 4, 1994), better known online as Justine Paradise, is an American YouTube vlogger and TikTok star part of Jake Paul's Team 10. She gained notoriety after she made a video alleging that Jake Paul sexually assaulted her.
Content[]
Justine joined Team 10 in July of 2019, which meant she would also live with the rest of the members in California. Upon joining, she was made to sign a NDA (as told in her video where she talked about Jake Paul sexually assaulting her). Her oldest video was about her trip to California for her birthday[1], though she would also vlog parties[2], photoshoots[3][4], Instagram meetups with her fans[5] and other related things.
In 2020 she bought a van[6], which would become the focus of several vlogs[7], like going from the border of Mexico to Los Angeles[8]. In March of 2021 she adopted a Bengal Kitten[9]. She also likes to cosplay anime characters like Zero Two from Darling in the Franxx.
Controversy[]
Sexual assault allegations[]
On 9 April 2021, Justine uploaded a video[10] talking about how she was sexually assaulted by Jake Paul. According to her, while they lived together, Jake once took her to his room, kissed her, then grabbed her hands and forced her to perform oral sex on him. She never told anyone as she had signed an NDA when she joined Team 10 (NDAs do not uphold if a crime has been committed).
The video garnered over a million views and Justine received an outpouring of support from most people including H3h3Productions[11] and Trisha Paytas[12], however a lot of people, even detractors of Jake Paul, were suspicious. People brought up parallels to the Slazo drama and said that if Justine really was sexually assaulted, she should have taken it to the police instead of social media.
They also pointed out that the timing itself was suspicious too - Justine made the video around the same time Paul would get his payday, and she also made Tiktoks teasing who her assaulter would be. The video has 48K Likes VS 26K Dislikes. The rest of her vlogs have also accumulated a large number of dislikes.
On Ethan Klein's podcast, Trisha pointed out that for several sexual assault victims, it takes time to heal from trauma and understand what happened, and that is why sometimes they tend to repress emotions. Ethan himself said "Women are just...their whole experience is so much different then men’s and it’s like been kind of like swept under the rug or a secret and just totally not...like men as a whole as a gender have not have had the amount of sympathy of the female sexual experience.". Even Alissa Violet has said that in the past, when girls would audition for Team 10, Jake would try to sleep with them.
Jake himself responded[13][14] to the allegations, calling them "complete bullshit" and saying that he "never laid a finger on a girl without their consent" and that he was "a momma's boy who respected women". He also said that around the time he was already in a relationship with Violet.
Personal life[]
Justine's family is from the East Coast and she has an older sister and younger sister. When she was 16, she had her first boyfriend (they broke up three years later), and she said that she knew she was bisexual "ever since she was in kindergarten". One of her other crushes was a girl she sat next to in French class during high school, but she never had the courage to talk to her.
Trivia[]
