Just one day after the FBI executed a search warrant on the home of “Cheer” star Jerry Harris in Naperville, Ill., the reality show standout is now being hit with a lawsuit from twin boys in Texas.

USA Today reported Monday that the feds were investigating Harris for soliciting sexually explicit photos and sex from minors.

A lawsuit filed Monday in Texas against Harris and three cheer organizations said the boys' mother reported Harris to the FBI last month.

In a statement to TMZ on Monday, a spokesperson for Harris said: "We categorically dispute the claims made against Jerry Harris, which are alleged to have occurred when he was a teenager.

Attempts by The Associated Press to find a phone number for Harris were not immediately successful Tuesday.

In addition to accusing Harris of sexual misconduct, the lawsuit accuses cheer organizations of failing to protect the boys.

The lawsuit says the boys’ mother reported Harris to USASF, Varsity and Cheer Athletics.

1 letters to police in Florida and Texas, said the organization had learned of “inappropriate sexual conduct” allegations against Harris, USA TODAY reported.

The lawsuit said that when the boys met Harris at a cheer competition in 2018, he was already well-known in cheerleading circles.

In interviews with USA TODAY at their Texas home, the boys —now 14— described a pattern of harassment both online and at cheer competitions, which began when they were 13 and Harris was 19
