A woman is suing Garth Brooks for alleged sexual battery and assault, claiming that Trisha Yearwood may have overheard some of his explicit conversations. According to the lawsuit, this woman, identified as Jane Roe, worked as a hairstylist for Garth and Trisha for many years.
She began working with Trisha in 1999 and Garth in 2017. Jane said Garth started giving her more work after learning about her financial struggles. She accused him of sexually harassing her multiple times, and claimed he raped her in 2019, which Garth has denied.
Jane also said that Garth sent her sexually explicit messages and pressured her to engage in sexting.
Jane claims that after Garth Brooks allegedly assaulted her, he started talking about his sexual fantasies involving her more often.
She said Garth would grope her while she was doing his hair and makeup, and would brag about having sex with different women in hotel rooms. He also allegedly talked about wanting a threesome with his wife, Trisha Yearwood, suggesting Jane be involved. Jane believes Trisha overheard this at least once.
In May 2020, Jane said Garth made an inappropriate comment about creating a shampoo bottle that could double as a sex toy while talking with his manager, with both Jane and Trisha present. When Jane refused to join the conversation, Garth allegedly got angry and slammed his fists on the counter.
Jane also accused Garth of exposing himself to her and forcing her to touch him, and claimed he raped her in a hotel room in 2019, using his larger size to overpower her.
She is suing Garth for unspecified damages, and he responded to the lawsuit in a statement on October 3.
Garth Brooks responded to the accusations by saying, “For the past two months, I’ve been harassed with threats, lies, and stories about what could happen to me if I didn’t pay millions of dollars. It feels like having a gun pointed at me. Whether it’s a lot or a little, hush money is still hush money.”
He added, “Paying it would mean I’m admitting to things I could never do—terrible acts no one should ever do to another person. We sued this person almost a month ago to stand up against blackmail and protect my reputation. We kept it anonymous to protect the families involved.”
Melody Thomas Scott, the “The Young and the Restless” Nikki Newman since 1979, had a lot more tumultuous background than she would confess
Born in 1956 in Los Angeles, California, Thomas Scott made her acting debut in “Marnie” when she was just 13 years old.
She had a few small film and television appearances throughout the ensuing years, including parts starring Kirk Douglas and Clint Eastwood. She attended the University of Southern California to study piano performance as well.
Thomas Scott’s traumatic childhood past was not well known, despite her success in theater and television, which included multiple Emmy nominations, wins from Soap Opera Digest Awards, and Soap Opera Update Awards.
When she was a baby, her mother left her. Her grandmother took care of her instead of her mother, and regrettably, she did little to stop multiple individuals from abusing young Thomas Scott.
A few decades later, in 2020, Thomas Scott released a memoir titled “Always Young and Restless: My Life On and Off America’s #1 Daytime Drama,” which offered an open window into his life away from the spotlight.
At the age of four, Scott saw her grandmother being abused for the first time. Her grandmother was in the same room as Scott, but she did nothing to stop him from being abused all of Scott’s life.
She pursued a career as a child actor as an escape from the filth, vermin, and lack of protection in her family life. Her passion for acting was stoked when she discovered a sense of normalcy in her profession that she had never experienced before.
Scott moved out of her grandmother’s house when she reached twenty, despite the fact that her health was deteriorating. She realized that trying to convince her grandmother not to have let the abuse would not help; perhaps things would have turned out differently if her grandmother had not been so afraid to see a doctor. Scott overcame these setbacks and continued on despite having a horrible upbringing.
Scott reflected on the agony and adversity she had endured at the hands of her grandmother, a woman who was unable to forgive her for an incomprehensible occurrence. Scott’s grandma asked for forgiveness for years before she passed away, and Scott never made amends with her.
Scott was able to find the good in a difficult situation. She learned endurance, patience, and how to handle hardship as a result of her experience. She was unable to contact her grandma at times, though, because of her unreasonable actions.
Scott faced a difficult road ahead of her as a result; the author needed ten years to write a biography about these upsetting experiences. The project was in danger of being completely destroyed throughout the first few terrifying chapters, which only served to highlight how amazing the project’s completeness was after it was finished.
After shedding her grandmother’s name, Scott was able to go forward. In 1985, she wed Edward James Scott. When they celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary, they took the chance to reiterate their vows on “Entertainment Tonight” in front of their loved ones. The couple’s three adoptive children were named Jennifer, Alexandra, and Elizabeth.
According to Scott, having a child offered her a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make up for some of the wrongs done to her during her childhood. In an intentional effort to provide her girls a better upbringing than she had, Scott decided to assign them to different activities. She had the good fortune to watch them develop into mature, content adults with their own families as a result.
In an effort to help fans understand more about the woman who inspired TV character Nikki Newman, Scott shares her story. She also urges anyone in similar circumstances to seek help before it’s too late, emphasizing that abuse can happen to anyone, regardless of one’s financial standing.
