Joe Gatto Cancels Comedy Tour and Enters Treatment Facility Following Sexual Misconduct Allegations

The former 'Impractical Jokers' star denies allegations of sexual assault and harassment but acknowledges poor judgment and steps away from the public eye for personal growth.

Joe Gatto has voluntarily entered an in-patient treatment facility and canceled all remaining dates of his comedy tour, citing a need to focus on personal growth.
The decision follows allegations of sexual assault by a TikTok user and claims of sexual harassment by a former employee, both of which Gatto denies.
The first accuser, a TikTok user, alleged that Gatto sexually assaulted her in 2023 when she was 19, sharing photos and messages as evidence.
The second accuser, a former employee, claimed Gatto exhibited inappropriate behavior, including unwanted touching, flirtation, and invasive questions about her personal life.
In a statement, Gatto admitted to using poor judgment in the past and thanked his family, friends, and fans for their support during this time.
