‘I don’t want your sympathy. I want change’: Alexa Nikolas bites back at Justin Long over comments on alleged assault by Jonah Hill

Whether it was decades ago or yesterday, Alexa Nikolas is not letting any detail go unscrutinized.

Former Nickelodeon star Alexa Nikolas is refusing to let a single detail fall by the wayside as the 31-year-old slams Barbarian actor Justin Long for his comments denying knowledge that his friend and fellow actor Jonah Hill sexually assaulted her when she was 16 years old.

Nikolas called out Long by name on Twitter, saying “Some bros love to put others trauma upon a timeline of their own making. ‘Nearly two decades ago’. So? Like that adds anything to anything. All it does is deflect accountability and down play abuse #justinlong. I don’t want your sympathy. I want change.”

Her comments come following Long’s public statement to Page Six in which his representatives claim, “This is the first time Justin has been made aware of this situation that allegedly happened nearly two decades ago. While Justin is sympathetic to any and all victims of any abuse, the simple fact remains he has no knowledge of what may or may not have happened concerning Ms. Nikolas.”

Nikolas asserts that Long enabled the abuse she endured from Hill by willingly and knowingly hosting a Hollywood party full of underage girls with adult men present. “You knew your roommate was assaulting a minor under your roof,” she said in a separate tweet. “You let it happen. Eek. I hope you regret it now.”

Although Hill vehemently denies the accusations against him, saying they are “a complete fabrication,” Nikolas refuses to let him have the last word. “#JonaHill ‘a complete fabrication’? Really? Are you sure you aren’t talking about your ‘boundaries’? Really disappointed in you bro. You are so early 2000s and super bad. #eatpredators.”

Nikolas’ bombshell accusations against Hill emerged after the Zoe 101 alum commended professional surfer Sarah Brady for opening up about the emotional abuse she allegedly endured at the hands of Hill. Brady and Hill dated from 2021 to 2022, but during the weekend of July 7th, she unveiled a series of private text messages between her and Hill in a string of Instagram Stories that are unsettling, to say the least

Nikolas used this opportunity to open up about her own experience with Hill, which dates back 15 years to when she was 16 and he was 24. In a number of Twitter posts, Nikolas claims Hill “slammed me to the door and shoved his tongue down my throat” after the pair went outside for a smoke break. “I was so appalled I pushed him off of me and ran inside.”

Nikolas’ accusations against Hill aren’t the first time she’s shed a harsh light on a Hollywood A-lister. Last year she accused Family Guy star Seth McFarlane of being a “creep,” saying he “hired me to abuse me.” She’s also said that Family Guy, the popular Fox sitcom “grooms the public.” 

Nikolas has been an outspoken advocate against sexual predators for several years while bravely sharing her experiences on social media and offering a safe place for others to do the same. In the past, she has also taken aim at Nickelodeon for not protecting her as a kid, the same company where iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy claimed Dan Schneider conducted abusive practices and offered her hush money to keep quiet about it.
