JUSTIN DENIES SEXUAL ASSAULT

-

Singer JUSTIN BIEBER has denied allegation­s of sexual assault and claimed he was with his then girlfriend SELENA GOMEZ when the alleged incident took place.

The 26-year-old’s denial came after a woman named Danielle took to Twitter to claim Justin sexually assaulted her in a hotel room at The Four Seasons in Texas in 2014.

Justin says he chose to respond to the claim after discussing the matter with his wife HAILEY, 23. He denied the allegation­s in a Twitter thread that also included shots of hotel receipts to show that he hadn’t stayed at The Four Seasons during that time. Justin claims he was staying with Selena at an Airbnb when the alleged incident happened.

Danielle, who has since deleted her Twitter account, wrote about the incident in a detailed post and said of Justin, “His body was on top of mine, skin-to-skin. I was very uncomforta­ble, and I felt myself starting to hyperventi­late. I told him to get off because I was starting to worry about my friends, but it was too late.”

Justin said in his denial, “Every claim of sexual abuse should be taken very seriously and this is why my response was needed. However this story is factually impossible and that is why I will be working with twitter and authoritie­s to take legal action.”
