Per Newsweek:
Garth Brooks is denying sexual assault allegations against him as claimed in a bombshell lawsuit.
A “Jane Roe” filed the complaint against the country superstar on Thursday, claiming she started as a hairstylist and makeup artist for his wife, Trisha Yearwood in 1999 and was then hired by Brooks for the same role in 2017.
The lawsuit accuses Brooks, 62, of instances of sexual battery, as well as violently raping her in a Los Angeles hotel room in May 2019.
In a statement to Newsweek late Thursday, Brooks wrote, “For the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions of dollars. It has been like having a loaded gun waved in my face.”
