Katy Perry is forcefully denying a sexual assault allegation made by Ruby Rose, who claimed the incident occurred nearly two decades ago in Australia.

The dispute began when Rose, known for her roles in "Orange Is the New Black," posted a series of messages on Threads over the weekend. She alleged that Perry, then an emerging pop artist, assaulted her at a Melbourne nightclub while she was in her early 20s.

"It has taken me almost 20 years to say this publicly," Rose wrote, describing the experience as deeply traumatic. She claimed she initially framed the encounter as a humorous story before later deciding to speak out.

In response, a representative for Perry issued a firm denial, calling the allegations "categorically false" and warning that the claims are "dangerous reckless lies." The statement also pointed to what it described as Rose's history of making public accusations that have been disputed by others.

Rose went on to share graphic details about the alleged encounter, prompting strong reactions across social media. Supporters expressed solidarity with the actress, while others questioned the timing and nature of the claims

Growing up in the spotlight was not easy for Dan Levy. During a recent appearance on Q with Tom Power, the 42-year-old reflected on how his father Eugene Levy's fame affected him during his younger years.

Although Dan is now widely recognized for his own work, he admitted that being exposed to public attention as a child was deeply uncomfortable. When host Tom Power asked about his experience growing up with a famous parent, Dan responded candidly that he disliked it and that it strained his relationship with his father.

He explained that at the time, he was still figuring out his identity and dealing with personal insecurities. Being in public spaces where people frequently recognized his father only intensified those feelings. He described how the attention they received whenever they went out made him uneasy, especially as someone who was not yet comfortable with himself. As a result, he began distancing himself from being seen in public with Eugene, even though it was not meant to hurt him.
