Justin Bieber says there ‘is no truth’ to the two sexual assault allegations from 2014 and 2015, and presented photographic evidence of his whereabouts pertaining to the 2014 claim.
Justin Bieber, 26, is denying accusations of sexual assault. “I don’t normally address things as I have dealt with random accusations my entire career but after talking with my wife and team I have decided to speak up on an issue tonight,” Justin began a series of tweets posted to his own Twitter account on Sunday, June 21. “Rumors are rumors but sexual abuse is something I don’t take lightly,” the Changes singer added.
Rumors are rumors but sexual abuse is something I don’t take lightly. I wanted to speak out right away but out of respect to so many victims who deal with these issues daily I wanted to make sure I gathered the facts before I made any statement.

In the past 24 hours a new Twitter appeared that told a story of myself involved with sexual abuse on March 9, 2014 in Austin Texas at the Four seasons hotel. I want to be clear. There is no truth to this story. In fact as I will soon show I was never present at that location.

“I wanted to speak out right away but out of respect to so many victims who deal with these issues daily I wanted to make sure I gathered the facts before I made any statement,” Justin wrote in the next post, flatly denying he was present at the Four Seasons Hotel in Austin, Texas where the woman on Twitter alleges the 2014 assault took place. “In the past 24 hours a new Twitter appeared that told a story of myself involved with sexual abuse on March 9, 2014 in Austin Texas at the Four seasons hotel. I want to be clear. There is no truth to this story. In fact as I will soon show I was never present at that location,” the Canadian-born singer added.
We have also confirmed with the Four Seasons regional manager that I was never on property on the 9th of March 2014 and never a guest on the 9th or the 10th and I welcome all press to inquire with them if needed or wanted.

Justin went on to confirm that his then girlfriend Selena Gomez, 27, was with him on the 2014 night in question. “As her story told I did surprise a crowd in Austin at Sxsw where I appeared on stage with my then assistant side stage and sang a few songs. What this person did not know was that I attended that show with my then gf Selena Gomez,” he wrote, referencing Austin’s annual star-studded SXSW music festival that takes place annually each Spring.
