Paula Abdul has settled her sexual assault lawsuit against American Idol out of court, but her sexual assault and battery suit against producer Nigel Lythgoe will go to trial next year.
The Grammy winner claimed the first assault occurred in the early 2000s in a hotel elevator. The document alleges: “Lythgoe shoved Abdul against the wall, then grabbed her genitals and breasts, and began shoving his tongue down her throat.” According to her lawsuit, the second assault occurred during a meeting for the new show at Lythgoe’s home in Los Angeles.
In March, his lawyers wrote in a court filing, “Lythgoe will continue to promote the dissemination of truth – which confirms that Abdul is not a victim of sexual assault at the hand of Lythgoe, but it is Lythgoe who has been a victim of Abdul’s appalling lies.”
