Explosive Truth: Garth Brooks Accused of Rape by Makeup Artist, Disturbing Acts Exposed?

 Garth Brooks speaks at the 2023 Music City Walk of Fame Induction ceremony on May 4, 2023.

A shocking lawsuit has surfaced involving country music star Garth Brooks, as a makeup artist and hairstylist named "Jane Roe" has filed a case accusing him of sexual assault and rape. According to court documents from California obtained by PEOPLE, Roe claims that Brooks, now 62, engaged in multiple acts of sexual misconduct and assaulted her throughout 2019. Notably, Brooks had previously filed a lawsuit under the name "John Doe," intending to block these allegations from going public and protect his reputation.

Shocking Allegations and Garth Brooks’ Response

In the lawsuit, Roe accuses Brooks of raping her, exposing his genitals and buttocks, openly discussing sexual topics and fantasies, changing clothes in her presence, and sending explicit messages—all of which took place in 2019. Brooks vehemently denies these accusations, stating that they are part of a scheme to extort money from him, with Roe demanding millions of dollars.

"For the last two months, I have been harassed endlessly with threats, lies, and tragic tales about my future if I didn’t write a check for many millions of dollars," Brooks said in a statement to PEOPLE. "It has been like having a loaded gun waved in my face." Brooks further insisted that he refused to pay hush money, as it would imply an admission of guilt. He noted that he filed his own lawsuit to combat extortion and defamation of character. "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," Brooks emphasized.

Relationship with Trisha Yearwood and Brooks' Alleged Misconduct

Roe claims she began working for Brooks' wife, country singer Trisha Yearwood, in 1999, and was later hired to do Brooks’ hair and makeup in 2017. Roe alleges that their professional relationship took a dark turn when Brooks became aware of her financial struggles in 2019, using this knowledge to exploit her.

According to Roe, Brooks saw her as an opportunity for sexual gratification, believing that he had the right to sexually harass a female employee. In one instance in 2019, Brooks allegedly walked out of the shower naked, with an erection, placed Roe’s hands on his genitals, and demanded oral sex. Despite refusing to engage in the act, Roe stayed to complete her work as his hairstylist.

Roe further alleges that prior to a May 2019 Grammy tribute performance, Brooks booked a private jet where they traveled alone to Los Angeles—something Roe claims was unusual since there were typically other passengers. She was then shocked to find out that Brooks had booked a one-bedroom hotel suite for the two of them. In the hotel room, Roe claims Brooks exposed his naked body and flexed his muscles before allegedly raping her.

According to the lawsuit, Roe could not escape Brooks’ physical dominance due to the size difference between them. She describes the experience as painful and traumatic. Despite this, Roe says she had to quickly resume her work and ensure that Brooks was ready for his performance. Roe’s legal team also mentioned that she experienced neck and back pain following the alleged assault. Roe claims that after the rape, Brooks became more explicit about his sexual fantasies involving her and even groped her breasts while she was doing his hair and makeup. He allegedly boasted about having sex with various women of different races in hotel rooms and suggested a threesome with his wife, Trisha Yearwood. Roe believes Yearwood overheard at least one of these remarks.

In October 2019, Roe alleges that Brooks attempted to rape her again but had to leave for another engagement before he could complete the act.

In a separate disturbing incident in May 2020, during a conversation in the presence of Yearwood, Brooks allegedly made crude comments about inventing a shampoo bottle that could double as a dildo. Roe texted Brooks later, expressing her discomfort, but claims he brushed off her concerns, telling her she was "overthinking it."

In the same year, Roe claims to have felt distressed after learning Brooks told Yearwood that she had seen his penis. When Roe confronted him via text message, he allegedly dismissed the issue, suggesting she was making too much of it.

Legal Maneuvering and Efforts to Hide Evidence

Roe attempted to reach an agreement with Brooks in 2020 to ensure there would be no further sexual contact between them if they were to continue working together. According to the lawsuit, Brooks responded by telling her they should "just hope that nobody ever finds out and just love one another and be friends." During a work event in 2020, Brooks allegedly took Roe’s phone and deleted most of the explicit text messages he had sent her. By May 2021, Roe had stopped working for Brooks and moved to Mississippi in an effort to start fresh. However, Brooks discovered her intention to file a lawsuit and preemptively filed his own under the alias "John Doe" on September 13, accusing Roe of being a liar and extortionist.

In his legal filing, Brooks stated, "Her allegations are not true. She is well aware 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, career, and livelihood."

Brooks’ Final Rebuttal

Brooks has consistently denied all allegations, maintaining that Roe’s claims are completely fabricated. He emphasized that the accusations are an attempt to destroy his reputation and career. According to Brooks, Roe knew the damage her accusations would cause, which is why she chose to make threats rather than filing a lawsuit immediately.

As this legal battle unfolds, the public is left waiting for the truth to emerge, with both sides standing firmly by their positions. The outcome could have far-reaching implications for Brooks' career and personal life.
