$10 MILLION LAWSUIT ACCUSES TREY SONGZ OF SNATCHING A WOMAN'S BIKINI TOP TO EXPOSE HER BREAST AT A POOL PARTY: According to TMZ, Trey Songz is being sued by a woman who claims that he exposed a woman's breast at a 2013 pool party in Connecticut — and a camera caught the alleged assault. The woman filed the suit anonymously as Jane Doe. According to legal docs, the woman is also suing his production company, music executive Kevin Liles, and Atlantic Records. The woman sent a demand letter last year, claiming he forcibly exposed her breasts without consent in front of a crowd at his “Foxwoods Liquid Sundays with Trey Songz” event and included video evidence of the ordeal. In response to the latest lawsuit, an attorney for Songz told the site, “This is yet another example of decade-old allegations being repurposed into a federal case. …. We look forward to vindicating Trey on the merits in court.”
