Amanda Black Shuts Down False Sexual Assault Allegations Against Sjava

Award-winning singer Amanda Black has strongly denied disturbing allegations linking her to rape accusations against fellow musician Sjava.

The controversy erupted after a video of Amanda breaking down on stage during a performance went viral. Some social media users speculated that she was emotional because of an alleged past incident involving Sjava. The rumors gained traction when a resurfaced tweet—allegedly from an account under Amanda’s name—claimed that the artist had raped her.

However, Amanda quickly set the record straight, making it clear that the allegations were completely false.

A post from X user @joy_zelda fueled the speculation, stating: “Amanda Black breaks down on stage while performing, thinking of how Sjava raped her.” This misleading caption led to widespread online debate, with many people questioning the authenticity of the claims.

In response, Amanda took to social media to shut down the rumors.

“Hi everyone. I have no idea where these rumours came from, but they are not true and did not come from me. Sjava did not sexually assault me,” she wrote.

Her statement quickly gained attention, with fans expressing relief and support. Many condemned the spread of false information, urging people to be more responsible when sharing sensitive topics online.

This isn’t the first time Sjava has faced such allegations. In 2019, his ex-girlfriend, musician Lady Zamar, accused him of sexual assault—claims he has consistently denied. The case was later dismissed due to insufficient evidence.

Amanda’s firm denial highlights the dangers of misinformation on social media and the impact it can have on people’s reputations.
