"I Was Raped With My Clothes On," Says Woman Suing KISS Rocker Gene Simmons For Dry Hump
November 1, 2010, 14 years ago
According to Radaronline.com, the ESPN makeup artist who claims rocker Gene Simmons ground his groin into her has testified that she feels "like I was raped with my clothes on."
Simmons filed a preemptive lawsuit against Victoria Jackson in May, insisting he couldn't have sexually assaulted her at ESPN's Los Angeles studios after appearing on Sportscenter because he was wearing his KISS costume - "the equivalent of a suit of armor" - at the time.
And asked in an August 10 deposition to describe the emotional injuries she's alleging, the woman replied: "Emotionally, an overwhelming sense of sadness, nervousness, anxiety, a lot of shame and - just I feel like - I feel like I was raped with my clothes on."
