Nigel Lythgoe responds to Paula Abdul's sexual assault claims:
“While Paula’s history of erratic behavior is well known, I can’t pretend to understand exactly why she would file a lawsuit that she must know is untrue. But I can promise that I will fight this appalling smear with everything I have,” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

"Everyone knows she's crazy!"
What a defense. I do wonder why he chose her. |

She seemed to have a few screws loose on American Idol, but who knows what actually happened. Anything is possible in Hollywood. I know this sounds weird, but if it all happened as she says it did, then keeping it on the down low for this long is to her credit because obviously she knew her image would be dragged.

I can just picture the scene in that lift.
She took two steps forward and then two steps back. But they came together because opposites attract. |

Sick joke, but I love it. And hopefully the truth of this case will be revealed, whoever the bad guy is in this situation.

Sadly this is an actual thing - people with a history of mental health problems are at an increased risk from sexual predators, because they can use the "Everyone knows what you're like, they'll never believe you" threat.

Nigel Lythgoe steps down from So You Think You Can Dance following second sexual assault lawsuit…
Nigel Lythgoe is stepping down as a judge on So You Think You Can Dance after being hit with a second sexual assault lawsuit this week. The English producer, director and dance competition judge was first accused of sexual assault by former American Idol judge Paula Abdul in papers filed 29 December. On Tuesday (2 January) two former contestants of All-American Girl, an all-girl competition show that Lythgoe, 74, produced, also accused him of sexual assault/battery. In a statement provided to Variety on Friday, Lythgoe announced his decision to exit Fox’s So You Think You Can Dance. “I have informed the producers of So You Think You Can Dance of my decision to step back from participating in this year’s series,” the producer said. “I did so with a heavy heart but entirely voluntarily because this great programme has always been about dance and dancers, and that’s where its focus needs to remain. In the meantime, I am dedicating myself to clearing my name and restoring my reputation.” Lythgoe has appeared as a judge on the show since it premiered in 2005, with the latest 18th season set to air on 4 March. Sony Pictures Television’s 19 Entertainment, which co-produces So You Think You Can Dance, has opened an investigation into Lythgoe’s alleged actions, Variety reported, citing a source. In a statement, Fox, 19 Entertainment and Dick Clark Productions said the upcoming season “will proceed, although without Nigel Lythgoe, to ensure the show remains committed to the contestants, who have worked incredibly hard for the opportunity to compete on our stage”. “No decision has been made as to a replacement judge for this season, which will premiere on FOX on Monday, March 4th,” the companies added. After Abdul came forward, Lythgoe said he was “shocked” by the allegations, and denied abusing her in a statement. She claims that during one of the early seasons of American Idol, the TV executive shoved her against a wall and groped her breasts and genitals, and shoved his tongue down her throat. Abdul also claims that she saw Lythgoe sexually assault one of her assistants in April 2015. She alleges that his behaviour was common knowledge in the TV industry and that it was even parodied in a 2008 episode of Mad TV. According to the plaintiffs in the second lawsuit, Jane Doe KG and Jane Doe KN, Lythgoe “walked around the set [of All-American Girl] and dressing rooms and openly swatted and groped plaintiffs’ and other contestants’ buttocks”. The plaintiffs have accused the producer of sexual assault/battery, sexual harassment, gender violence and intentional infliction of emotional distress for an incident they claim to have occurred in May 2003. Lythgoe’s representative did not respond to The Independent’s request for comment. Lythgoe began his entertainment career in the Seventies and Eighties, later producing British TV shows including Blind Date and Gladiators. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-e...-b2474120.html |

Yes, though I think the quality of the secondary accusations make a difference also especially if the primary claim is harder to substantiate (due to time or just not blatant enough). She has the means to bring a focus to other people's cases and help the other accusers to fight their own claims... (in that way, her case will be complicated by her fame, so having the extra backing helps her case as well...)
