Hair and makeup artist accuses Garth Brooks of sexual assault and battery in lawsuit
A new lawsuit filed in California state court alleges country star Garth Brooks sexually assaulted and battered a hair and makeup artist working for him.
A new lawsuit filed in California state court alleges country star Garth Brooks sexually assaulted and battered a hair and makeup artist working for him.
The lawsuit, filed Thursday by a “Jane Roe,” alleges the incidents happened over the course of several years while Roe was working for Brooks, who has denied the accusations.
In the 27-page lawsuit, Roe makes several allegations against the country singer. She alleges that in 2019, Brooks forced her to touch his erect penis while she was at his home to style his hair. That same year, Roe alleges, Brooks brought her to Los Angeles to style him for an event and then raped her in a hotel room.
Roe’s suit also accuses Brooks of repeatedly exposing his genitals and buttocks to her, talking about sex, sharing sexual fantasies and sending sexually explicit text messages.
The lawsuit goes on to say Brooks attempted to cover up his alleged harassment of Roe, going as far as to surreptitiously take her phone and delete explicit texts he’d sent her.
