Country music icon Garth Brooks has been accused of sexual assault and battery in a new lawsuit obtained by CNN. According to reports, the bombshell lawsuit was filed in California on Thursday, October 3 by a “Jane Roe” who claims to have worked for the award-winning singer as a hairstylist and makeup artist.
The mystery woman’s suit details how she was employed by Brooks in 2017, but was hired to do hair and makeup for Trisha Yearwood – Brooks’ wife – in 1999. The allegations in the suit are purported to have taken place in 2019, accusing music star Brooks, 62, of repeatedly exposing his genitals to Roe, sending explicit text messages, talking about sex and sharing sexual fantasies with Roe, and regularly changing clothes in front of her.
As per CNN, the filing also claims that Roe was raped by Brooks in May 2019 during a work tip to Los Angeles, where the singer was taping a Grammy tribute performance.
Prior to Roe’s filing, an anonymous plaintiff – now revealed to be Brooks – filed a complaint under “John Doe” aiming to block Roe from repeating her allegations publicly. In a statement to CNN after the suit was filed, Brooks said: “For the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions of dollars.” “Hush money, no matter how much or how little, is still hush money.
In my mind, that means I am admitting to behavior I am incapable of — ugly acts no human should ever do to another,” the singer continued. “We filed suit against this person nearly a month ago to speak out against extortion and defamation of character. We filed it anonymously for the sake of families on both sides.”
In his previous complaint as plaintiff John Doe – filed prior to the suit being made public – Brooks claimed that Roe’s attorney had sent him a “confidential” demand letter alleging sexual misconduct after he had refused Roe’s request for “salaried employment and medical benefits.”
“Defendant’s allegations are not true,” the singer’s complaint stated. “Defendant is well aware, however, of the substantial, irreparable damage such false allegations would do to Plaintiff’s well-earned reputation as a decent and caring person, along with the unavoidable damage to his family and the irreparable damage to his career and livelihood that would result if she made good on her threat to ‘publicly file’ her fabricated lawsuit.” According to the suit itself – as per CNN – Brooks and Roe traveled to Los Angeles in 2019 on Brooks’ private jet.
“Usually there were others on Brooks’ private jet but this time, Ms. Roe and Brooks were the only two passengers,” the complaint states. “Once in Los Angeles at the hotel, Ms. Roe could not believe that Brooks had booked a hotel suite with one bedroom and she did not have a separate room.” Once Brooks and Roe arrived at their hotel room, Roe’s suit alleges that the Friends in Low Places hitmaker “appeared in the doorway to the bedroom, completely naked.”
Roe’s complaint states she felt “trapped in the room alone with Brooks.” Roe’s attorneys reportedly told CNN that Brooks’ “efforts to silence our client through the filing of a preemptive complaint in Mississippi was nothing other than an act of desperation and attempted intimidation.”
“We are confident that Brooks will be held accountable for his actions,” the attorneys continued. “We applaud our client’s courage in moving forward with her complaint against Garth Brooks. The complaint filed today demonstrates that sexual predators exist not only in corporate America, Hollywood and in the rap and rock and roll industries but also in the world of country music.”

This ancient remedy, passed down through generations, harnesses the power of onions to rejuvenate and maintain the health of the bladder and prostate.
Why Onions?

Grandfather’s Onion Remedy Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 large onion
- 1 liter of water
Instructions:
Prepare the Onion:
- Peel the onion and chop it into small pieces to increase the surface area exposed to the water. This allows more nutrients to be extracted.
Boil the Onion:
- Place the chopped onions in a pot and add 1 liter of water.
- Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. This process extracts the beneficial compounds from the onions into the water.
Strain and Store:

Usage:

Potential Health Benefits
Supports Urinary Health: Onions help support the function of the urinary system, reducing the risk of infections and promoting overall health.
Prostate Health: The antioxidants in onions, especially quercetin, are believed to be beneficial for prostate health. They may help manage conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and reduce the risk of prostate inflammation.
Detoxification: Regular consumption of onion water can aid in detoxifying the body, thanks to its diuretic properties that help flush out toxins.
Considerations and Tips
Regular Medical Checkups: While natural remedies like onion water can support organ health, they are not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are crucial, especially for those dealing with prostate or bladder issues.
Monitor for Allergies: As with any new addition to your diet, it’s important to pay attention to your body’s reactions. Onions can be potent, and some individuals may experience digestive discomfort or allergies.
Consistency for Effectiveness: To achieve the best results, it’s important to use the remedy consistently. It may take several weeks to notice any improvements in your health.
This traditional onion remedy offers a simple and natural way to support bladder and prostate health, reflecting the wisdom passed down through generations about the benefits of this versatile kitchen staple.
