In this day and age, it is almost impossible for a celebrity to stay out of trouble, but LeBron James has had a near-spotless record in the two decades that he spent in the spotlight.
There was a time back in 2014, however, when a rumor started circulating that he had slept with Miami-based social media influencer Julieanna Marie Goddard, who goes by the name YesJulz. Now, years later, she has come out and denied that it ever happened.
“I have never in my entire life been alone with LeBron James, period,” YesJulz said. “There is nothing that ever went on there. Clearly, we were friends. I was working in Miami. I was one of the most popular party promoters and throwers in Miami… I started working with them through Maverick Carter, shoutout to Mav, and so I was around and they supported me. And obviously, do you think that somebody that’s married would tweet and take pictures with and be around and bring somebody that they’re doing something with around their family and wife?”
“It wasn’t LeBron,” YesJulz continued. “Did I have relations with somebody he is friends with or knows? Did I end up going on dates and trying my hand with someone that was around him at the time? Yeah, I did. We were friends, we tried dating for a little bit, had a great time. Ended up not taking it further than that and then remained friends.”
“I did not f**k with LeBron,” YesJulz stated. “I have the utmost respect for Savannah. Love her. I think she’s amazing. They have a beautiful family and I’m really f***ing tired of this stain being put on my name.”
It appears the rumors started due to a song released by Pusha T called “Popular Demand.” The rumors back then would have been especially troubling, as LeBron had only married his high school sweetheart Savannah James in 2013. LeBron himself never felt the need to address these rumors, however, as he never commented on them at any point.
As for YesJulz, she got engaged to NFL player Duke Riley in 2021, with whom she has a daughter, but they broke up a year later. She is still going strong, though and has formed quite the presence on social media, with over 600k followers on Instagram.
The rumors regarding LeBron would have been weighing heavily on her mind all these years and she wanted to make it clear to the world that nothing happened. Hopefully, with this, she stops getting asked about it in the future.
