British YouTuber and rapper Yung Filly has pleaded not guilty to multiple sexual assault charges in Australia.

The internet personality, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, appeared before Perth Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.

According to court documents, he pleaded not guilty to three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm, one of strangulation and four counts of sexual penetration without consent.

He will appear before the higher district court on 13 June.

The 29-year-old has been on bail since October last year after he allegedly sexually assaulted a woman in her 20s in his hotel room, following a performance at a venue in a Perth suburb.

The attack is alleged to have taken place on 28 September, when Barrientos was on tour.

During a court hearing in October, Barrientos was granted bail with strict conditions and a personal undertaking of 100,000 Australian dollars (£52,000), alongside a surety of the same amount.

According to court documents, Barrientos pleaded guilty to a reckless driving charge on 5 December. He was clocked driving at more than 96mph on the Roe Highway on 17 November.

Barrientos rose to fame as a social media personality and rapper and has appeared on several BBC shows. He is known for working with Beta Squad – a YouTube collective.

He has also featured on Soccer Aid and The Great Celebrity Bake Off For Stand Up To Cancer on Channel 4.
