Fashion Model Accuses Recording Mogul Russell Simmons Of ‘Raping Her In The Shower While Brett Ratner Watched
A model claims Russell Simmons forced himself on her when she was 17-years-old and says film producer Brett Ratner watched and refused to do anything about it.
Keri Claussen Khalighi says the incident took place at Simmons’ apartment in New York in 1991.
She said she met Simmons and Ratner at a casting call before accompanying them to dinner one night. They then went back to the record mogul’s place to watch a music video.
That’s when she claims Simmons tried to force her to have sex but she “fought it wildly” before she eventually reluctantly performed oral sex while Ratner watched and did nothing. And she says Simmons raped her in the shower.
Simmons issued a statement saying he denies the “horrendous allegations” adding “everything that happened between us 26-years-ago was completely consensual.”
