Singer Katy Perry is in the public eye due to an accusation by actress Ruby Rosewho claims to have been sexually assaulted by the singer 20 years ago. This statement led to an investigation by the Melbourne police, in Australia.
The controversy arose from a comment on a post on the social network Threads, which highlighted Perry’s reaction to Justin Bieber’s performance at Coachella. In this context, actress Ruby Rose stated that the singer’s opinion is not important.
In the comment he highlighted: “Katy Perry sexually assaulted me at the Spice Market nightclub in Melbourne. Who cares what she thinks.” This comment quickly gained momentum and led Perry’s representatives to deny the incident and the Australian police to open an investigation.
Given the controversy, new testimony emerged from a source who claims to have witnessed what happened the night the alleged abuse was reported. This is the former manager of a nightclub in Melbourne, who revealed his version of events.
The former Spice Market manager described to the newspaper The Sun that that night can be summarized as a “security nightmare”, due to the excess of visitors. Data collected by the newspaper Herald They indicate that the incident would have occurred in 2010, when both artists visited the club.
The testimony assures that, that night, both arrived accompanied and highlights that they were drinking and dancing in the audience. The media highlights that both the singer and the actress remained in the VIP area most of the time.
The former manager also explained that the singer did not stop dancing while moving between the VIP area and the dance floor. Likewise, he indicated that during the night they both consumed alcoholic beverages.
In response to Ruby Rose’s accusations against Katy Perry, the former manager stated that he was not aware of any incidents between them, or any attacks during their stay.
The testimony also indicates that he is not aware that a vomiting situation existed, as Rose claims. He stressed that, although both had drunk a lot, neither was “paralyzed.”
The story adds that the staff helped the artists leave the place unnoticed, so they arranged a vehicle with a driver at one of the entrances to take them to their hotel.
The artists left through one of the back doors of the place, since, because they had been drinking, they sought to maintain their safety and prevent them from being photographed in that state. It is believed that after that they went to another hotel.
While the situation is clarified, Perry’s representative highlighted Variety: “not only are they categorically false, but they are dangerous and reckless lies,” and noted that Rose has a history of making accusations against various artists who have been denied by them.
