Smokey Robinson Responds to Sexual Assault Allegations

The Motown legend faces serious accusations from former employees while denying all claims and preparing for legal defense.


Smokey Robinson has vehemently denied allegations of sexual assault filed by four former housekeepers in a recent lawsuit, which claims he engaged in sexual battery and created a hostile work environment. His attorney describes the accusations as unfounded attempts for financial gain from the iconic musician.


Motown legend Smokey Robinson is embroiled in controversy following a lawsuit filed by four female housekeepers accusing him of sexual assault, including severe allegations of sexual battery and false imprisonment. This lawsuit was brought forth on Tuesday, outlining incidents dating back to 2006, where the women claimed they were coerced into unwanted sexual acts.

Robinson has issued a strong denial through his lawyer, Christopher Frost, who labeled the allegations as "vile" and "false." The legal representative asserted that the claims are an "ugly method" aimed at extracting $50 million from the 85-year-old star, who has penned numerous hits throughout his storied career, including the enduring classics "My Girl" and "The Tracks of My Tears."

In addition to Robinson, the lawsuit includes accusations against his second wife, Frances, alleging her role in fostering a hostile work environment. The accusers, who have chosen to remain anonymous under the pseudonyms Jane Doe 1, 2, 3, and 4, revealed that fear of losing their jobs or facing family repercussions held them back from speaking out sooner.

The plaintiffs are reportedly seeking at least $50 million in damages and demand a jury trial. However, there have been no police reports or criminal charges filed against Robinson as of yet. The women's legal representatives have labeled him a "serial and sick rapist," intensifying the public narrative surrounding the case.

Robinson’s legal team has rebuffed these claims, noting that they intend to seek the dismissal of the lawsuit and criticize the plaintiff's attorneys for creating a media spectacle. They urge the public to withhold judgment until all evidence is presented in court. Robinson’s story remains a developing legal battle, with both sides preparing for a contentious fight in the courts.
