In November, Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose was accused of sexual assault by former Penthouse model Sheila Kennedy. The allegations were detailed in a lawsuit filed at New York Supreme Court, and detailed an alleged assault that took place in 1989, after Kennedy met Rose in a nightclub. Now Rose's legal representatives have refuted those claims, claiming that Kennedy had previously confirmed that the incident was consensual.
In new court documents seen by a number of sources, Rose's lawyer writes, “In her 2016 self-authored memoir, No One’s Pet, Kennedy described the alleged incident in the Complaint as consensual sex, and specifically noted: 'I was okay with this. I had wanted to be with him since the minute I’d first laid eyes on him, and now I was getting him.'"
