He previously pleaded not guilty to four counts of sexual penetration without consent and three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm.
The entertainer has also denied impeding the woman’s normal breathing or circulation by applying pressure to her neck.
He is now facing two additional counts of sexual penetration without consent, although no plea has been entered.
The additional charges were briefly mentioned in court but not explained and his lawyer declined to discuss the change outside court.
The London rapper, who has 1.8 million YouTube subscribers and millions of Instagram and TikTok followers, will face a 10-day trial on July 20, 2026.
He was arrested in Brisbane and extradited to Perth in October.
Barrientos’ Wikipedia page says he was born in Colombia.
He started his YouTube career in 2013 and music career in 2017.
He has also appeared on numerous television shows, including BBC’s Hot Property, which he hosted in 2018.
Barrientos was previously fined and banned from driving for six months after he pleaded guilty to reckless driving in November, while on bail.
