Actress Ruby Rose has publicly accused singer Katy Perry of sexually assaulting her at a nightclub in Melbourne, Australia, nearly 20 years ago. Rose, 40, made the allegation in a series of posts on Threads, Instagram’s text-based platform. Perry’s representatives have firmly denied the claims. The allegation came after Complex Music posted about Perry’s reaction to Justin Bieber’s headlining set at the Coachella music festival in California.
Perry, who attended the event with her partner, former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, had posted a video joking about Bieber’s performance. According to CBC, Rose responded to the Complex post with her accusation, writing, “Katy Perry sexually assaulted me at spice market nightclub in Melbourne. Who gives a shit what she thinks.”
