Country Star Who Performed At Biden’s Inauguration Accused Of Rape, Battery In New Lawsuit

Country star Garth Brooks has been accused in a new lawsuit of raping and battering a woman who claims to have worked as his hair stylist and makeup artist.

The lawsuit, which was filed in a California court on Thursday by a woman identified only as “Jane Roe,” accuses the Grammy-winning artist of allegedly raping her in a hotel room during a trip where she felt “trapped” by Brooks.

“We are confident that Brooks will be held accountable for his actions,” attorneys Douglas H. Wigdor, Jeanne M. Christensen and Hayley Baker said in a statement to CNN. “We applaud our client’s courage in moving forward with her complaint against Garth Brooks. 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.”

The woman who filed the lawsuit claims she was first hired as a hair and makeup stylist for Brooks’ wife, Trisha Yearwood, in 1999. She was later moved to Brooks’ team in 2017, the suit alleges.

In her filing, the woman accused Brooks of raping her in a hotel room after the pair traveled alone in his private jet to Los Angeles for a Grammy taping in May 2019. Brooks allegedly “appeared in the doorway to the bedroom, completely naked” making her feel “trapped in the room alone with Brooks.”

“Usually there were others on Brooks’ private jet but this time, Ms. Roe and Brooks were the only two passengers,” the complaint further states. “Once in Los Angeles at the hotel, Ms. Roe could not believe that Brooks had booked a hotel suite with one bedroom and she did not have a separate room.”

After the alleged rape, Brooks is accused of groping the woman and attempting to get her to have a “threesome” with he and his wife, the lawsuit alleges.

In a separate incident, Roe alleges that Brooks walked out of the shower naked while she was working on an assignment at his home and proceeded to touch her hand to his genitals while he made sexually explicit remarks.

Brooks has previously denied the allegations and attempted to prevent the woman from making her allegations public, according to a complaint he filed as “John Doe,” according to a report from CNN. The “Friends In Low Places” singer claimed that Roe’s attorney sent him a “confidential” demand letter alleging sexual misconduct after he declined her request for “salaried employment and medical benefits,” CNN reported.

“Defendant’s allegations are not true,” Brooks’ previous lawsuit states.

“Defendant is well aware, however, of the substantial, irreparable damage such false allegations would do to Plaintiff’s well-earned reputation as a decent and caring person, along with the unavoidable damage to his family and the irreparable damage to his career and livelihood that would result if she made good on her threat to ‘publicly file’ her fabricated lawsuit.”

Roe’s attorneys claimed that Brooks’ lawsuit was an attempt to silence the alleged victim and prevent her from coming forward.
