Country Singer Jimmie Allen Dropped By Record Label After Second Woman Comes Forward w/ Sexual Assault Allegations

Jimmie Allen is facing some serious legal woes.

The country music star has been dropped by his record label after a second woman came forward with sexual assault allegations against him.

The label said in a statement,

“BBR Music Group has dissolved its relationship with Jimmie Allen. He is no longer an active artist on its roster.”

Jimmie Allen, 37, was first suspended by BBR in May when his former manager sued him for assault and sexual abuse, which he has denied. According to Allen, he and his ex-manager were involved in a consensual relationship.

He said in a statement,

“It is deeply troubling and hurtful that someone I counted as one of my closest friends, colleagues and confidants would make allegations that have no truth to them whatsoever.”

He continued,

“I acknowledge that we had a sexual relationship — one that lasted for nearly two years. During that time she never once accused me of any wrongdoing, and she spoke of our relationship and friendship as being something she wanted to continue indefinitely.” 

Allen went on to question his former manager’s motives.

“Only after things ended between us, did she hire a lawyer to reach out and ask for money, which leads me to question her motives. The simple fact is, her accusations are not only false, but also extremely damaging. I’ve worked incredibly hard to build my career, and I intend to mount a vigorous defense to her claims and take all other legal action necessary to protect my reputation.”

As for the second lawsuit against him, an anonymous woman filed a lawsuit earlier this month claiming that Allen violated her privacy by secretly filming her, and continued to engage in sexual contact with her even after she’d revoked her previously given consent.

Allen has yet to release a statement regarding the second lawsuit.

Jimmie Allen previously took to social media to issue an apology to his estranged wife Alexis, with whom he shares daughters Naomi, 3, and Zara, 20 months. The pair are expecting their third child together despite their separation.

Allen wrote,

“I want to publicly apologize to my wife Alexis for humiliating her with my affair. I’m embarrassed that my choices have brought shame on her. That’s something that she did not deserve at all.” 

Allen added,

“The business takes so much from you. It’s full of temptations that can cripple you and ruin everything you’ve built. I’m ashamed that I wasn’t strong enough to withstand them. I will no longer be a victim of my weaknesses.”
