YouTube beauty guru James Charles posted a video Thursday afternoon addressing allegations that he sexted with underage boys on social media. In a nearly 15-minute-long video titled "holding myself accountable," Charles apologized to "anybody that I’ve hurt or anybody that I’ve made uncomfortable with my actions."

In the video, the 21-year-old makeup artist addressed allegations from two 16-year-old boys who said they exchanged inappropriate messages with Charles on social media. A recent Vulture article detailed numerous allegations from multiple boys, including a 15-year-old.

Charles, who has been involved in multiple scandals throughout his YouTube career, went on to say that the conversations "should have never happened” and he should have done more research on social media to find out the boys' actual age before messaging them.
