Music icon Smokey Robinson faces a sexual assault lawsuit from four former employees alleging long-term harassment and misconduct. While fans expected a detailed response, Robinson’s only public statement was a terse “No truth whatsoever.” The stark denial—just three words—sparked debate. Supporters rallied to defend the 85-year-old Motown legend, while critics questioned his refusal to engage the specifics. Robinson’s lawyer subsequently clarified a total denial of all accusations. The allegations highlight how even revered cultural figures can land in legal battles with far-reaching consequences.
