Sylvester Stallone has responded to the allegations against him and his former bodyguard about a sexual encounter with a 16-year-old girl in 1986. A representative for Stallone said in a statement on Thursday that the alleged incident, first reported by the Daily Mail, “never happened.”
“This is a ridiculous, categorically false story,” Stallone’s spokeswoman Michelle Bega said in a statement to the Daily Mail. “No one was ever aware of this story until it was published today, including Mr. Stallone. At no time was Mr. Stallone ever contacted by authorities or anyone else regarding this matter.”
“It never happened,” Bega told TMZ.
On Thursday, the Daily Mail published a 1986 police report of the allegations made by a 16-year-old girl who claims that she felt pressured into participating in a threesome with Stallone and his former bodyguard Mike De Luca, who died in 2013 after being fatally shot by police during a traffic stop.
The girl, whom the police described as very emotional when she spoke with them, alleged that she willingly went up to Stallone’s hotel room in Vegas and had intercourse with him. During the encounter, she claimed Stallone invited in his bodyguard for a “threesome,” with which the girl said she was “very uncomfortable” but felt intimidated into participating in.
While she said that she was not physically forced to have sex with Stallone, she at one point described the bodyguard as having “forced her head down” to perform oral sex on him and claimed that Stallone threatened to “beat her head in” if she told anyone about the encounter.
One of the girl’s friends told a Las Vegas Hilton employee about the alleged incident; the employee then contacted police who tracked down the teen for her testimony. The teen told the police that while she was “humiliated and ashamed” by the incident, she did not want to pursue charges.
