American pop superstar Katy Perry has recently become embroiled in another controversy. Media citing insiders stated that this incident is nothing short of a nightmare for the 41-year-old mother of one, as she has spent the past two years striving to repair her image, which was damaged by controversies stemming from her album '143'.
This accusation comes from Australian actress Ruby Rose, known for her roles in the film 'Batman' and the series 'Orange Is the New Black.' The 40-year-old responded on Threads to a post about Katy attending the Coachella music festival, suddenly accusing the pop star of sexual harassment and assault.
Ruby wrote: "Katy Perry sexually assaulted me in a Melbourne nightclub." She further described that while she tried to avoid Katy, the singer made lewd gestures with her private parts and engaged in inappropriate physical contact, which caused Ruby to vomit on the spot. After these comments surfaced, they sparked heated online discussion. In response, Katy’s spokesperson strongly denied the allegations, stating that these claims circulating on social media were "completely untrue and dangerous, reckless lies," and pointed out that Ruby had previously made serious accusations against others on social media, all of which were denied by the individuals involved. Ruby later posted again, saying that at the time she did not know how to deal with it, so she publicly recounted the incident as a 'drunken story.' She also said she chose to remain silent because Katy once promised to help her with her U.S. visa application. Ruby admitted that it took her nearly 20 years to go public with this matter and emphasized the long-term impact trauma can have.
