Jason Derulo has been accused of sexual harassment in a new lawsuit. An aspiring singer, Emaza Gibson, has launched legal action against the 34-year-old 'Glad U Came' star, claiming that he offered her a possible record deal in exchange for sexual advances.
Gibson filed the paperwork in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Thursday, which states that she has been battling trauma and anxiety ever since the alleged incident. According to her statement, Derulo and Gibson had agreed to work together on music to present to label executives in August 2021.
However, the 'Cats' actor allegedly asked her to accompany him to dinner and drinks, or to drink in the studio during sessions, which Gibson refused in order to remain professional. The lawsuit further claims that after she eventually agreed to have a drink in the studio, Derulo gave her 'inappropriately large amounts of alcohol'.
Gibson also reported that Derulo suggested that she take part in 'goat skin and fish scales', which she believed to be cocaine and a ritual involving 'sex, blood and goat sacrifices'. Gibson stated that this was an 'explicit demand for sex-in-exchange-for-success'.
Although Gibson gained a record deal after meeting with record executives, she claims that Derulo did not assign her a project manager and became aggressive when she was late for a recording session due to traffic.
Gibson has now stated that she is 'just trying to fight for what’s right' and is seeking unpaid wages, loss of earnings, deferred compensation, and damages for emotional distress. Derulo, however, has yet to comment on the allegations made against him.
The Agency has contacted reps for Jason Derulo and Atlantic Records for a comment. If you have any celebrity story, video, or pictures, get in touch with the entertainment team.
