AceShowbiz - A second woman has accused rapper Riff Raff of sexual misconduct, days after his tour was cancelled following a rape allegation.
The U.S. star, real name Horst Christian Simco, was due to begin a trek across Australia and New Zealand on Friday, June 08, but his shows were pulled after a woman named Eliza Stafford accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting her backstage at a concert in 2013.
Another alleged victim, 20-year-old Kelsey Doucette, has now come forward, telling website Jezebel she was assaulted at a concert in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 2015.
She claims the 36-year-old musician invited her on to his tour bus and then forced her to lay down on a bed, before touching her legs, trying to kiss her and asking her to have sex. Doucette said she resisted and was then allowed to leave the bus.
"When I was 17 I never really heard stories about rape or whatever but I would always hear stories of like, oh my god, this girl got with this DJ or this girl got with this famous artist or whatever and that was so cool," she explained. "And I thought oh god, this is not cool right now, this is very weird. This is something I don't want to be in, I don't know why people talk about these things being so great. I was genuinely scared."
On Facebook, Stafford accused the "Tip Toe Wing In My Jawwdinz" rapper of offering her a shot from a vodka bottle that was allegedly laced with prescription cough syrup. She claims to have fallen unconscious, and only woke up as he was finishing having intercourse with her.
Bosses at the Corner Hotel, a venue in Stafford's hometown of Melbourne, Australia have announced they will host a panel discussing sexual harassment and abuse in place of the Riff Raff show they had planned.
Riff Raff is yet to release any statement responding to either allegation.
