Glamorous ex-Howard Stern Show star Elisa Jordana claims she's the victim after fighting with Beverly Hills tycoon boyfriend - as she holds up chunks of hair she claims he ripped out

The YouTuber who was arrested last week after getting into a physical fight with her boyfriend on a livestream says she feels lucky to have walked away from the altercation with her life.

Elisa Jordana, the former Howard Stern Show writer and personality, spoke with TMZ in the aftermath of her arrest for felony battery.

Jordana - whose real name is Elisa Ann Schwartz - claims she was hit repeatedly and even suffocated by the man in the car. The man, her on-camera love interest Bahram Alipour, is the son of a wealthy Beverly Hills businessman.

The two were filmed hitting each other during a livestream where Jordana accused Alipour of cheating.  

The live-streamer insists she is the true victim, because she feels that in slightly different circumstances, she could 'be dead right now.'

In the interview with TMZ, Jordana at one point holds up two large handfuls of hair that she says she had to cut off of her hair following the fight, during which Alipour viciously yanked her hair and put her in a headlock after she hit him.

The streamer's hair did look visibly shorter on one side as she spoke to TMZ, saying she's relieved she was livestreaming at the time of the altercation because she fears what might've happened had the two of them been alone together.

'If I was alone, I could definitely be dead right now. That's how I feel,' she said, before adding that Alipour - who has yet to issue any sort of statement or comment about any of this - 'destroyed my life.'

Jordana claims the conflict that led to the violent altercation began when she found information on Alipour's phone that suggested he had been unfaithful to her.

She said she found texts to other women, as well as Venmo deposits to other women. Until last week, Jordana had been in a relationship with Alipour for at least several months.

To TMZ, she said the pair had filled out a marriage license together but bailed on plans to legally tie the knot on several occasions.

Jordana and her attorney, Brian Bieber, will now fight her felony charge in a Florida court, arguing that she was ultimately the victim of the violent behavior.

'When I slapped him, I didn't want to kill him, obviously. I just wanted to slap him,' she said.

Jordana's stream initially went viral because of the shocking footage of her slapping Alipour hard across the face multiple times as she confronted him about his alleged affair.

In a written report, police say they observed several injuries to Alipour's face, and after viewing the livestream, opted to take Jordana into custody.

She previously said she doesn't think authorities watched the full livestream.

In a statement to DailyMail.com, Schwartz vowed to reevaluate her relationships with other people

The YouTuber claimed her boyfriend was cheating on her with a young woman named Sara, and accused him of paying her thousands of dollars.

Jordana held up Sara Rodriguez's Venmo account to the screen. She said she could see various instances when her boyfriend sent Sara payments of a few thousand dollars. 

Jordana has also claimed that Alipour, who goes online by the name 'Zscorro,' has paid her throughout their relationship.

It is not clear if Alipour is employed, but his father, Mohammad Alipour, is the owner of a $45million mansion in Beverly Hills, according to public records.

Following her arrest on April 8, Jordana - whose legal name is Elisa Ann Schwartz - was issued a no-contact order, which prohibits her from contacting Alipour in any way.

She is scheduled to appear in court next Friday.

In a statement to DailyMail.com following her arrest, Jordana apologized for her behavior.

'I just want to say I’m so sorry for what I portrayed on my livestream that everyone saw,' she said.

'This is not what I want to give to the world and it sucks that I got into such a sadness and anger - it was a really negative representation of who I am.

'I’m going to do everything I can to have better relationships with people that are good for me, and people that I’m also good for.'

She deemed the controversy and subsequent arrest 'the most challenging time of my life,' adding, 'if I can get through this time I will definitely be proud.'
