Days before his monumental Superbowl halftime performance, 50-year-old rap artist Snoop Dogg made headlines after a pending sexual assault lawsuit against him from an anonymous woman was announced.The lawsuit alleges the West Coast rapper, as well his longtime friend Bishop Don Juan, forced her to perform oral sex back in 2013. The women, who was a former dancer for the “Gin and Juice” artist, reportedly demanded almost $10 million before filing an official lawsuit.

According to reports, Snoops legal team has filed for the case to be dismissed, citing that the details in the suit are false and that the alleged assault is outside of the statute of limitations for prosecution.

Lawyers for Snoop say that he adamantly denies ever engaging in sexual activities with the accuser. They also claim that the details of the lawsuit are fabricated, and the entire case is to extort money from the rapper – noting the timeliness of the lawsuit being right before the halftime show.

Reportedly, the defense statement for the rap artist, born Calvin Broadus, reads:

“Nothing remotely resembling plaintiff’s story about defendant Calvin Broadus ever happened. He vehemently denies ever engaging in any sex act with plaintiff or assaulting or battering her.”

It continues:

“She provides no allegations of any statement by defendant that he would help her career, and no allegations of any statement about how defendant might advance her career. Instead, the only allegation plaintiff makes is that [co-defendant Donald] Campbell — not defendant — said going to the studio where defendant was would be ‘a career move.”

Snoop seemingly responded when the lawsuit was publicly announced, taking to his Instagram to write:

“Gold digger season is here be careful Nefews keep ya guards up. And. Keep ya circle small”

No other details about the case have yet been released.
