Though I am so grateful to have made it long enough to find my voice, it just shows how much of an impact trauma and sexual assault takes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Katy Perry on tour in Mexico CityCredit: Kevin Mazur\/Getty\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1242\" height=\"828\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img w-full w-full h-auto\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8d61eb23f7a390935c17d8a39360b43a.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Katy Perry on tour in Mexico City<br \/>Credit: Kevin Mazur\/Getty<\/p>\n<p>In response, a representative for Perry told Entertainment Weekly, &#8220;The allegations being circulated on social media by Ruby Rose about Katy Perry are not only categorically false, they are dangerous, reckless lies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The rep added: &#8220;Ms. Rose has a well-documented history of making serious public allegations on social media against various individuals, claims that have repeatedly been denied by those named.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/ew-dispatch-newsletter-11812417\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:EW Dispatch newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">EW Dispatch newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time that Rose has spoken out against Perry, previously calling her out for 2017 song &#8220;Swish Swish,&#8221; which many viewed as a shot at Rose&#8217;s friend, Taylor Swift. When a Threads user brought up the <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/music\/2017\/05\/19\/katy-perry-taylor-swift-swish-swish\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:&quot;Swish Swish&quot; history;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">&#8220;Swish Swish&#8221; history<\/a> and the fact that Rose never went to the authorities over the alleged Perry incident, Rose responded that she wasn&#8217;t &#8220;interested&#8221; in filing a police report &#8220;when I haven\u2019t even filed a report for the numerous rapes at the hands of grown men.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But she is more than welcome to sue me (she won\u2019t, because it happened, I have photos and it was literally in public and witnessed by multiple people),&#8221; Rose continued. &#8220;Plus there is so much more that happened in the years leading up to her silly song she won\u2019t want me discussing. The psychological manipulation was strong with that one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, Rose shared an update, revealing that she has now spoken to the police. She does not specify if Perry is involved in the &#8220;reports&#8221; that she filed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As of this afternoon, I have finalized all of my reports,&#8221; she wrote on Threads. &#8220;This means I am no longer able to comment, repost, or talk publicly about any of those cases, or the individuals involved. It\u2019s going to look like I am ignoring everything from supportive messages, to other people\u2019s experiences, but I\u2019m not. This is a standard request from the police and in many ways, quite the relief. I can start the healing process now. And temporary move forward.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Read the original article on <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/katy-perry-ruby-rose-sexual-assault-allegations-response-11949702\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Entertainment Weekly;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\">Entertainment Weekly<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ruby Rose; Katy PerryCredit: Rodin Eckenroth\/FilmMagic; Dave Benett\/Getty Key points Katy Perry posted a subtle message on Instagram&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":584847,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[88,10587,216,33727,180376,2818],"class_list":{"0":"post-584846","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-katy-perry","10":"tag-music","11":"tag-ruby-rose","12":"tag-russell-brand","13":"tag-sexual-assault"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/584846","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=584846"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/584846\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/584847"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=584846"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=584846"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=584846"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
