Jimmy Allen is accused of sexual assault for the second time in two months.

According to documents obtained by Us weekly on Friday, June 9, the 37-year-old ‘Best Shot’ performer was named in a new lawsuit by a woman identified as Jane Doe 2who claims she was sexually assaulted by Allen in Las Vegas in July 2022 and was secretly videotaped.

According to the lawsuit, Jane Doe 2 and Allen met on a plane in early May 2022 and began communicating over long distances before the woman agreed to meet the “Freedom Is a Highway” performer in Las Vegas several months later.

Although “plaintiff inquired about Allen’s wife on several occasions” – Allen and estranged wife Alexis Gale tied the knot in May 2021 – “Allen assured her that he and his wife were divorced.”

The lawsuit alleges that “Allen sexually assaulted Jane Doe 2 in his [Las Vegas] hotel room and then passed out. Jane Doe 2 was very upset by the attack and left the hotel room when she discovered that Allen had surreptitiously and without her permission put his cell phone in the closet opposite the bed and videotaped the entire event. After being unable to wake him up to get him to delete the recording, she took the cell phone from the room and gave it to the police when she got home.

In addition, Allen allegedly refused to wear a condom during the incident and told Jane Doe 2 that “he wanted to get her pregnant,” according to the documents, even though the woman “said no.” She also told the singer she wanted him to pull out before he was done, but “he refused.”

Jane Doe 2 is suing the singer on four counts: battery, assault, invasion of privacy and “intentional infliction of emotional distress”.

The new lawsuit comes weeks after Allen was sued by his ex-manager for alleged sexual assault, which he denied. The unnamed woman alleged that the “Make Me Want To” musician raped and subjected her to sexual abuse and harassment on multiple occasions over more than a year and a half – dating back to 2021.

Allen, for his part, claimed the two were involved in a consensual “sexual relationship” in a lengthy statement to Us at the time. The “Freedom Is a Highway” artist called the allegations “deeply distressing and hurtful” in a statement from his attorney, Andrew B Brettler.

“I acknowledge that we had a sexual relationship – one that lasted nearly two years. During that time, she never accused me of any wrongdoing, and she spoke of our relationship and friendship as something she wanted to continue indefinitely,” Allen’s attorney shared. “It was only after things ended between us that she hired a lawyer to contact and ask for money, which makes me question her motives. The simple fact is that her accusations are not only false, but extremely damaging. I have worked incredibly hard to build my career, and I intend to vigorously defend her claims and take any other legal action necessary to protect my reputation.”

Days later, Allen publicly apologized to Gale for “humiliating her with my affair,” he wrote via Instagram in May. “I’m ashamed that my choices have disgraced her. She didn’t deserve that at all.”

He continued: “I also want to apologize to my children for being a bad example of a man and a father. I am working to become a better person that my children can be proud of. My goal is to be better than the generation before me.”

The couple, who tied the knot in May 2021, announced their divorce in April. Gale, 27, is currently pregnant with the couple’s third child. Allen and Gale are parents to daughters Naomi Bettie, 3, and Zara James, 20 months. The ‘Down Home’ singer is also the father of son Aadyn, 8, from a previous relationship.
