Who can Watch Jukkalan Onlineforget the cringeworthy interviewon the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallonearlier this year where host Fallon and Paris Hilton gushed over their Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs?
Well, that Tonight Showsegment is now partof a class-action lawsuitagainst dozens of celebrities who promoted Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs along with its parent company Yuga Labs.
According to the two plaintiffs who filed the complaint, Yuga Labs "schemed" with celebrities like Fallon, Hilton, Madonna, Kevin Hart, Justin Bieber, and Snoop Dogg, in order to artificially pump up the price of Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, and defraud their fans who invested.
The suit was filed in federal district court in Los Angeles on Dec. 8. The plaintiffs are looking for at least $5 million for themselves and others who were affected.
Additional celebrities named in the lawsuit include Gwyneth Paltrow, Post Malone, Stephen Curry, and Serena Williams among others.
There are other notable names included in the suit too, such as Williams' husband, Reddit founder Alex Ohanian and Amy Wu, an investor who recently left FTX, the failed cryptocurrency exchangefounded by Sam Bankman-Fried.
One particular standout name being sued is Guy Oseary, talent manager for Madonna, U2, and other musical superstars. Oseary is a partnerin Yuga Labs and also manages a number of celebrities involved in promoting Bored Ape NFTs. In addition, Oseary is an investor in Moonpay, a crypto payment platform that has basically acted as a concierge service for many celebrities' NFT transactions.
And that multi-level relationship stringing everything together is at the heart of the complaint. The plaintiffs say Oseary recruited celebrities he had a relationship with and Yuga Labs paid them to endorse Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs through Moonpay. Then those celebrities would go and promote Bored Ape NFTs to their fans without disclosing the arrangement. For example, that very Tonight Showsegment with Fallon and Hilton showing off their Bored Ape NFTs and talking about why they purchased them, is explicitly described in the lawsuit.
“In our view, these claims are opportunistic and parasitic,” said a Yuga Labs spokesperson in a statement provided to a number of outlets. “We strongly believe that they are without merit, and look forward to proving as much.”
Critics have previously pointedout the close relationship between celebrities, their talent agents, and those agents' investments in crypto companies that their talent then promotes.
This most recent crypto class action lawsuit follows one that was filedagainst Larry David, Tom Brady, and Giselle Bündchen last month for their promotion of FTX.
As for Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT owners, their non-fungible token investment is currently down big. The floor price for a Bored Ape NFT peakedin April at around $430,000. Currently, the floor price for a Bored Ape NFT is around $86,000.
