Garth Brooks Faces Sexual Assault Allegations While Appearing on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live

The country music star avoided addressing the lawsuit during his interview, focusing instead on holiday traditions and music performances.

Garth Brooks, 62, appeared on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' on November 25, where he discussed family holiday plans and performed a mini-concert, avoiding any mention of the sexual assault lawsuit against him.
The lawsuit, filed in October by a former hairstylist, accuses Brooks of rape and sexual misconduct during a 2019 work trip, as well as other inappropriate behavior over several years.
Brooks has denied the allegations, calling them an extortion attempt and stating that he filed a countersuit for defamation and damages, which included publicly naming his accuser.
The appearance on Kimmel included emotional moments as Brooks reflected on family traditions, though some speculated his demeanor was influenced by the ongoing legal case.
Brooks' legal team has filed a motion to dismiss the case, with a hearing scheduled for December 9, while the accuser's attorney has accused Brooks of intimidation tactics.
