Cody Ko is a 33-year-old influencer. He started his career on the popular app Vine. When Vine shut down, he moved to YouTube, where he amassed over six million subscribers. For many years, he was considered one of the leading commentaries on YouTube. In 2023, he married Kelsey Kreppel, who is also active on social media. At the beginning of 2024, they welcomed their first child.
Tana Mongeau is a 26-year-old YouTuber who has been online for nearly a decade. She started her career by recording videos recounting crazy stories from her life. She is one of the most popular social media stars, with over five million subscribers on YouTube. She co-hosts a popular podcast called "Cancelled" with her friend Brooke Schofield.
Cody Ko took advantage of 17-year-old Tana Mongeau's immaturity
The issue first came to light at the end of May. A recording surfaced from a show that Tana Mongeau and Brooke Schofield were organizing as part of a tour. An audience member asked a question about which YouTuber, with whom 26-year-old Tana had slept in the past, had the smallest penis. Without hesitation, she said Cody Ko. The room erupted in laughter, which quickly turned to shouts of surprise. This was because the influencer added that she was only 17 then.
Outraged netizens quickly took to X. They were sure that Cody Ko would somehow respond to Tana Mongeau's statements. As the issue gained more traction, the 26-year-old influencer recorded a podcast episode in which she recounted exactly what happened many years ago between her and the YouTuber. In brief, the internet favorite had taken advantage of the girl's naivety.
Tana Mongeau on having intercourse with Cody Ko
When recounting the story, Tana Mongeau admitted that she doesn't want to end Cody's career. She also stated that she does not have trauma from the events, but in hindsight, she sees that what happened should never have occurred. Tana and Cody met in 2015 during Playlist Live, an event for internet personalities. There was alcohol at the party. Of course, Tana shouldn’t have been drinking, but no one paid attention that the teenager was drinking with older friends.
Tana and Cody flirted, had fun together, and eventually started kissing. Social media personality Gabbie Hanna also noticed this. She approached Cody and informed him that Tana might look older but was underage. He thanked her for the critical information and assured her he would leave the teenager alone. However, that night, they ended up in bed together.
Tana Mongeau admitted that she now sees that her naivety, lack of maturity, and the fact that she was a fan of YouTuber were exploited. She said she still couldn’t believe that despite knowing her age, Cody Ko continued flirting with her and took her to bed. At that time, she felt special. She thought there must be something special about her if a 25-year-old famous YouTuber was flirting with her specifically.
Cody Ko has not addressed Tana’s accusations in any way. There are no negative comments under his videos. This likely means he is avoiding the issue every day. The situation is different under the materials shared by the YouTuber’s wife, Kelsey. You can find many negative opinions and requests to address the situation there. Cody Ko has lost many subscribers, but there is no indication that he plans to end his career in social media.
