Former Penthouse Model Files Lawsuit Against Axl Rose for Alleged Violent Sexual Assault
Axl Rose, the legendary frontman of Guns N’ Roses, has found himself entangled in a serious controversy. Former Penthouse model Sheila Kennedy has accused Rose of sexual assault, detailing the disturbing incident in a lawsuit filed at New York Supreme Court.
According to the court documents, the alleged assault occurred in 1989 after Kennedy met Rose in a nightclub. Kennedy claims that she agreed to attend a party in Rose’s hotel suite, where they were both plied with cocaine and alcohol. In a shocking turn of events, Rose allegedly pushed Kennedy against the wall and kissed her, leading to a series of uncomfortable encounters.
Kennedy mentioned that despite initially finding Rose attractive, the situation quickly escalated when he engaged in sexual activities with another model in her presence. The suit further alleges that Rose was aggressive and encouraged group sex, making Kennedy understandably uncomfortable.
Following the tumultuous events, Kennedy left the room with another guest, Riki Rachtman, only to hear the sound of glass breaking and Rose hurling derogatory insults. The suit describes Rose’s subsequent attack on Kennedy, where he allegedly dragged her by the hair and forcibly restrained her in his bedroom.
The most harrowing allegation in the lawsuit is that Rose forcibly penetrated Kennedy’s anus with his penis, leaving her traumatized and vulnerable. Kennedy had previously disclosed the assault in her autobiography and a documentary about sexual misconduct in the music industry.
Despite the gravity of the accusations, Rose’s attorney, Alan S. Gutman, vehemently denies the claims, stating that the incident never occurred. Rose asserts that he has no recollection of ever meeting Kennedy and is confident that the case will be resolved in his favor.
This scandal comes at a time when discussions around sexual misconduct and accountability in the music industry are at the forefront. As the legal proceedings unfold, the music world awaits the outcome of this troubling situation involving one of rock music’s most iconic figures.
