Yung Filly was kicked out of ANOTHER show after being accused of rape and assault in Australia

Yung Filly was kicked out of another show after the YouTube star was accused of rape and assault in Australia.

Filly – whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos – was arrested in Brisbane on Tuesday and extradited interstate to Perth on Wednesday.

The 29-year-old is accused of sexually assaulting a 20-year-old woman at his hotel on September 28 after a performance at Bar1 Nightclub in Hillarys, Perth.

The rapper, whose rapid rise to fame saw him launch his own BBC show called Hot Property in 2019, performed at Havana Nightclub on the Costa Dorada two days before his arrest.

Since then, clothing and food brands have struggled to dissociate themselves from him – with Germany's Doner Kebab, Heinz, the Football Association and ASOS among those who have apparently withdrawn their support on social media.

And now a live show of The Chunkz and Filly Show, in which the YouTuber duo interviews rappers and influencers, has also been cancelled.

The Chunkz and Filly Show made more headlines today after an uncovered clip showed Chunkz saying he wouldn't let him marry into his family – because 'he's heard too many stories'.

The 28-year-old YouTuber – whose real name is Amin Mohamed – answers the question of 'which stories?' with: 'It curves to the left… listen, that's really scary in my head.'

In a lewd response, Barrientos responded that it was none of his business what he did when he was 'whitening' – or having sex – with his brother.

He continued: 'Yes, but what does that have to do with you, when I'm clarifying? You only need to worry about whether I'm treating your brother well.

He shared: 'Where to start? 4 o'clock in the morning I'm lying in bed, right? I see what's happening on Twitter. First of all… I'm exactly like you. I'm shocked! Yeah, you know, mental. Mental!

“But now he is obviously involved in legal proceedings. I cannot comment on legal proceedings. Yes, you know how it is. Crazy!

'Honestly, I can't comment on legal proceedings. I don't know anything else. I know exactly the same as you. I know what was reported in the news. I don't know anything else. Please don't think so.

'It is what it is. We just have to wait for the final verdict. You'll all have your own opinions and everything, and that's okay.
