One of the lead singers of the cult boy band Backstreet Boys Nick Carter was accused of rape.

So, disabled girl Shannon Ruth filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Carter.. Ruth, now 39, said that when she was 17 years old, the performer abused her.

The incident happened in 2001 when the Backstreet Boys were on the Black \u0026 Blue concert tour.. Ruth remembers standing in line for an autograph at the Tacoma Dome in Washington. Carter noticed her, picked her out of the queue and invited her to his bus..

Ruth claims that she did not guess anything and went with an idol. According to the woman, Carter, who was 21 at the time, got her drunk on a pink drink he called alcohol-flavoured VIP juice.. After that, the artist allegedly ordered her to kneel, pulled off his pants and insisted that she had oral sex with him.. Ruth claims he instructed her on how to proceed even though she cried and begged her not to, Rolling Stone writes.

After that, Carter raped 17-year-old Ruth. According to the woman, Carter told her that no one would believe her because she had a disability.. A woman has autism and cerebral palsy. In addition, Ruth claims that Nick Carter infected her with the human papillomavirus..

" Despite the fact that I am autistic and live with cerebral palsy, I believe that nothing has affected me more... than what he did to me, "

The woman also admitted that when she told Carter about her intention to publish this story, he intimidated her.. The girl, in turn, demands that Carter pay her 30 million dollars in moral compensation..

In turn, Nick Carter has already responded to the accusations brought against him by Shannon Ruth. The artist's lawyer called all the allegations baseless:.

" Unfortunately, for several years, Ms.

Ruth was manipulated into making false accusations against Nick, and these allegations have been repeatedly changed all this time, ”said Carter’s lawyer..
