Sex and the City star Chris Noth accused of sexual assault

The two women have accused actor Chris Noth, best known for his role as Mr. Big in the TV series Sex and the City, of sexual assault, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The victims do not know each other. The incidents of alleged violence they reported to the press occurred more than ten years apart. The actor, in his statement, called the accusations "categorically false", saying that he had never attacked women. "These stories could have happened 30 years, and 30 days ago - "no" always means "no" to me, this is a line that I did not cross", - he said. - All meetings were by mutual agreement. I don’t know for sure why these stories have surfaced now, but I know one thing: I did not attack these women”.

According to the women who appear in the publication under the pseudonyms Zoe and Lily, both met Noth at the age of 20. Zoe, who works in the entertainment industry, said she met the actor in 2004, when she was 22 and he was 49. After several meetings at work, he invited her to hang out by the pool at the apartment complex where he had an apartment. Then, according to Zoe, Noth lured her to him, saying that he wanted to discuss the book, and after kissing he began to have sex with her from behind, in front of the mirror. “It was very painful, I shouted: “Enough!”, But he did not stop. I asked him to at least get a condom, but he just laughed".

According to Zoe, after the incident, she went to the Cedars Sinai Medical Center, where she was stitched, but she refused to tell the police the name of her abuser, fearing the consequences at the workplace. It is impossible to verify the accuracy of this information: the records of 2004 have not been preserved in the hospital.

Lily says she met Noth in 2015, when she was 25 and he was 60, in the VIP section of the now-closed New York nightclub, where she worked as a waitress. According to the woman, the actor invited her to dinner, and then, under the pretext of discussing her career plans, to his apartment in Greenwich Village. There, according to Lily, Noth kissed her, put his penis in her mouth and began to have sex with her in front of the mirror.

Both women told The Hollywood Reporter that they felt obligated to perform in public due to the premiere of And Just Like That, the sequel to Sex and the City. “When I saw that I was repeating my role, something rose in me,” said Zoe. - For so many years I kept it to myself. It's time to tell everyone who he is".

The charges are being investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department. Nota's lawyers said their client had yet to hear from the police.
