Katy Perry accused of sexual harassment by another amid first allegation

Katy Perry has been accused of sexual harassment by another person following the allegations by model Josh Kloss over the weekend. Kloss accused Perry of sexual assault after they worked together on “Teenage Dream.”

The new allegation comes from Tina Kandelaki, a Georgian-born Russian journalist and TV producer. In the Russian newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta, Kandelaki accuses Perry of acting inappropriately towards her during an industry party.

Kandelaki didn’t disclose the time and location of the party. However, she describes the incident as a drunken Perry inappropriately touching her and attempting to kiss her. Kandelaki states that she openly refused Perry, who then reportedly continued to act unsuitably.

After Kloss’ story became mainstream news over the weekend, followed by a public defense by another former costar of Perry’s, Kandelaki says she decided to share her story with the world.

More on the allegations against Katy Perry

The first allegation from Kloss states that Perry showed his penis to a large group of friends at a party. A portion of his statement can be read below and in full here.

It was Johnny Wujek’s birthday party at Moonlight Rollerway. And when I saw her, we hugged and she was still my crush. But as I turned to introduce my friend, she pulled my Adidas sweats and underwear out as far as she could to show a couple of her guy friends and the crowd around us my penis. Can you imagine how pathetic and embarrassed I felt?”

“I just say this now because our culture is set on proving men of power are perverse, but females with power are just as disgusting. So for all her good she is an amazing leader, hers songs are mainly great empowering anthems.

Another one of Perry’s co-stars, Anderson Davis, came forward to defend the singer, stating he felt Kloss’ story is a “smear job.”

Simply put…it sounds like a smear job to me. Maybe it’s always been this way, but more so today, everyone seems so needy for attention no matter how they can get it—even at the cost of someone else’s reputation. We have a responsibility as a society as individuals not to be careless with our accusations or words. #katyperry”

Perry hasn’t responded to any of the allegations. You can read both Kloss and Davis’ original posts below.
