Superhumn CEO Jade Cheng is suing Falling in Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke for libel, slander and emotional distress over social media posts in which he allegedly accused her of scamming him. The lawsuit stems from a lease dispute over a $3 million Hollywood Hills home, according to New York Post.
The suit centers on a series of videos Radke posted on social media following the lease arrangement. According to the filing, Radke made a range of accusations against Cheng, including claims about her conduct and character. Cheng says the accusations are fabricated.
In the videos, Radke called Cheng a “con artist” and alleged that “she f***ed me over $220,000.”
He allegedly shared subsequent videos on social media falsely calling Cheng a “Thai boy,” a “scam artist escort” and claimed that she had chlamydia because he supposedly had seen her “medical or gender history.”
Radke also allegedly made threatening statements toward Cheng in the videos, including “you’re never getting this house back,” “the feds are coming for you” and “you’re going to get it,” according to the report.
The suit details the nature of Cheng’s claims. “Cheng’s defamation claim is focused on four categories of accusation, that Cheng had chlamydia, was a sex worker, a criminal or that Cheng stole Radke approximately $220,000 payment,” the suit contends.
The lawsuit was filed in response to the social media posts Radke made about the housing dispute.
This latest legal action adds to a growing pattern of disputes involving the Falling in Reverse frontman. In August 2025, Radke lost a defamation lawsuit against music critic Anthony Fantano after a Connecticut state judge ruled that Fantano was exercising free speech protected under the First Amendment. Fantano had published a video in 2024 that criticized Radke’s controversial past and current conduct.
Social media conflicts have also marked Radke’s recent history. In 2025, he faced scrutiny after a tirade directed at Australian councillors, with the City of Launceston condemning his use of social media to incite harassment and abuse against elected officials. City of Launceston CEO Sam Johnson called Radke’s comments “not only reckless but entirely unacceptable.”
Falling in Reverse has also experienced internal changes. In January 2026, the band fired guitarist Max Georgiev over allegations, with Georgiev releasing a second statement following accusations made at that time. Meanwhile, the band has continued to release new material, including the collaboration track “Joseph” featuring Slipknot’s Corey Taylor and System of a Down’s Serj Tankian in 2026.
