Def Jam co-founder and Hollywood film producer and director Brett Ratner each deny allegations by model Keri Claussen Khalighi that she was forced to perform sex act on Simmons, and that he and Ratner ‘were in it together’.

Model Keri Claussen Khalighi alleges that in 1991, when she was 17, she was invited by Simmons and Ratner to Simmons’ apartment to look at a music video the pair were working on. She says that Simmons tore off her clothes and attempted to force her to have sex. She added: “I looked over at Brett and said, ‘Help me,’ and I’ll never forget the look on his face. In that moment, the realisation fell on me that they were in it together.”
