What did Tony Lopez do?
In August 2020, sexual harassment allegations were made and later filed in a lawsuit against the TikToker, who was accused of messaging underaged girls on social media and allegely soliciting nude photos from them. Screenshots of supposed DMs between Lopez and the girls went viral online, it's reported.
The lawsuit file seen by PEOPLE in January 2021 alleged:

"This case arises out of injuries suffered by minor Plantiffs after they were lured, persuaded, coerced and groomed to either engage in physical sexual acts and/or send illicit and obscene child pornographic images of themselves, to Defendants, as a result of Defendants' illegal acts... Tony Lopez knew that H.L. Doe, C.H. Doe, and other victims not named in the Complaint, were minors."
Lopez denied the allegations in a statement to the publication.
"These allegations are not at all true. I never sent nudes to these women and didn't ask them to send me pictures either. And I certainly wouldn't have sex with someone who told me they were underage," he said. "This whole thing seems like a money grab to me. I'm going to fight it to the very end. I will not allow them to continue to slander my name and attack my character," he added.
Some of Lopez's brand partners cut ties with him following the allegations, and he lost a significant amount of followers. But the influencer has bounced back and continues to rack up millions of views on TikTok.
How much is Tony Lopez worth in 2021?
Lopez makes his money from brand endorsements as well as his own line of merchandise. He's estimated to be worth $2 million (£1.5 million) in 2021.
