CNN —Axl Rose, lead singer of the rock band Guns N’ Roses, has been accused of sexually assaulting a Penthouse magazine model in a lawsuit filed Wednesday in New York. The lawsuit was filed on Wednesday with the New York State Supreme Court and was obtained by CNN. It’s not just individual musicians stepping out of line, but an industrial system of enabling them and then covering up their misconduct and crimes, silencing survivors and normalizing sexual assault. We hope Sheila’s bravery helps other victims find their voice.”Kennedy is an actress and a model who has appeared on the cover of the adult magazine Penthouse. The law has given adult survivors of sexual assault one year to file lawsuits against their perpetrators and is set to expire on November 24.

NEW YORK (AP) — A former Penthouse magazine model sued Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose on Wednesday, saying he raped her in a 1989 attack at a New York City hotel that left her with anxiety and depression and harmed her career. Attorney Alan S. Gutman said in a statement on behalf of Rose: “Simply put, this incident never happened. According to the lawsuit, Kennedy saw Rose have sex with another model before he became angry with the woman, ordering her out of his suite. “Rose made no attempt to ask for or check that Kennedy was consenting,” the lawsuit said. The Associated Press does not typically name people who say they have been sexually abused unless they come forward publicly, as Kennedy has done.

The other plaintiff, Kelsey Harbert, accused Gooding of groping her breast in June 2019 at the Magic Hour rooftop bar, also in midtown. Lawyers who have represented Gooding in civil and criminal litigation over his alleged sexual misconduct did not immediately respond to requests for comment. He pleaded guilty in April 2022 to a misdemeanor charge of forcibly touching Abbay, who was not identified by name at the time but revealed her identity in her lawsuit. The charge was downgraded six months later to harassment, to which Gooding pleaded guilty after complying with a plea agreement that required alcohol and behavior modification treatment and no further arrests. Accusations by Abbay, Harbert and a third woman were the basis for a six-count indictment against Gooding, which his guilty plea resolved.
