Country music star Garth Brooks accused of sexual assault in civil lawsuit


Brooks, who previously filed lawsuit against hair and makeup artist, calls allegations false and intended to extort

“The complaint filed today demonstrates that sexual predators exist not only in corporate America, Hollywood and in the rap and rock and roll industries but also in the world of country music,” Wigdor and two other attorneys for the plantiff, Jeanne Christensen and Hayley Baker, said in a statement to the Guardian. According to her California complaint, the woman accusing Brooks of sexual assault is a stylist who has worked in the music industry for more than 30 years, including doing hair and makeup for celebrities appearing in Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair and other publications. CNN previously reported on a “highly unusual legal battle” in Mississippi, in which an anonymous celebrity plaintiff asked a federal court “to declare a sexual assault accuser’s allegations untrue and stop her from further publicizing them”.
