Shocking Allegations: Guns N’ Roses Frontman Accused of Violently Assaulting Model in 1989
Welcome to Music Nation 365 news network, where we bring you the latest updates from the world of music. Today, we have a compelling story involving former Penthouse magazine model Sheila Kennedy and rock band Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose.
In a recent lawsuit filed in New York, Kennedy accused Rose of sexual assault that allegedly took place in 1989 when she was just 26 years old. According to Kennedy, the incident occurred on the night she first met Rose at a nightclub in New York City. The lawsuit, which was reported by Rolling Stone magazine, details a disturbing account of what transpired that night.
Kennedy stated that Rose dragged her into his hotel room, tied her up, and raped her in a “sexual, volatile rage.” The lawsuit describes how Kennedy felt overpowered and trapped, believing that she had no means of escape during the assault.
On the night in question, Kennedy had attended the nightclub with a friend in the hope of meeting the band members of Guns N’ Roses. Rose invited Kennedy, along with another model and an MTV host, to an after-party in his hotel room. There, Rose allegedly encouraged group sex while providing cocaine, champagne, and other alcohol to his guests.
During the gathering, Kennedy became uncomfortable when she witnessed Rose engaging in aggressive sex with the other model. Despite feeling uneasy, Kennedy decided to leave the room with the MTV host, only to hear glass shattering and Rose yelling at the model in a violent manner.
Concerned for her safety, the MTV host warned Kennedy that the situation was going to escalate. Kennedy sought refuge in the host’s bedroom down the hall, but Rose soon barged in, questioned her presence, and forcefully dragged her back to his bedroom.
Inside Rose’s bedroom, Kennedy found herself on the floor, crying, bleeding, and trying to collect her belongings before Rose tied her up face-down using pantyhose. The lawsuit paints a harrowing picture of Kennedy’s experience, describing her as vulnerable and terrified throughout the assault.
Following the traumatic incident, Kennedy allegedly suffered from PTSD, anxiety, and depression, which affected her career and social life. She has since avoided situations where she may encounter Rose or his music to protect her mental well-being.
Despite Kennedy’s claims, Axl Rose’s attorney has vehemently denied the allegations, stating that the incident never occurred. While Rose acknowledges the possibility of a fan photo being taken in passing, he denies any recollection of meeting Kennedy or being involved in the alleged assault.
As the legal battle progresses, both parties remain firm in their stance, with Rose expressing confidence in the case being resolved in his favor.
