Sex and the City actor Chris Noth gets a $12 million deal on tequila after being accused of sexual assault.
Ambhar, Noth’s tequila logo is preparing to be acquired through Entertainment Arts Research, Inc. [EARI], a beverage company that has worked with celebrity logos in the past.
The Sun reported that EARI would take direct steps to end talks with Ambhar following accusations by two noth opponents.
The claim that Noth sexually assaulted them years ago.
“At the moment, it makes no sense for us to go ahead with this agreement despite the claims, which will need to be taken with the utmost seriousness,” said Bernard Rubin, CEO of EARI.
“That said, we continue to bet on spirits brands that align with EARI’s social duty ethic. “
The tequila brand’s website, which featured Noth heavily in the ads, now has its domain call as a result of the allegations.
This isn’t the first industry deal that’s slipping away for Noth. A Peloton ad featuring Noth got rid of the women’s claims.
Noth, known for betting on Mr Big on the hit series Sex and the City, also got rid of artist agency A3.
Noth’s character also died on the reboot, and so, where he suffered a central attack.
Zoe, 40, and Lily, 31, told The Hollywood Reporter about their alleged separate encounters with Noth.
The two did not know each other when they spoke to the point of sale.
Zoe’s accusations
Zoe claims to have met Noth in 2004, when she was 22, while applying for a media company. His former boss corroborated his claim that Noth, who was 49 at the time, left his voicemails and spoke to him at his desk.
Zoe alleged that Noth once invited her to the pool of his West Hollywood apartment. Zoe said one of her friends lived in the same building, so she went to the pool excitedly to meet Noth.
Noth allegedly asked Zoe about her education and eventually an e-book for her to read and bring to her.
“He said, ‘I’d like to know what you think,'” Zoe said.
When she returned to the book, Zoe claims that Noth kissed her, which at first alarmed her, then Noth allegedly took her to bed, took off her clothes, and had forced sex with her.
Lily’s accusations
Lily says she met Noth at a nightclub in New York City in 2015, when she was 25 and he was 60.
She claims that Noth had invited her to a place to eat called Cantinori, but when she arrived, the kitchen closed, so they had a drink.
After that, Lily claims that Noth invited her to his apartment. “I thought, ‘Let’s drink whiskey and communicate about his acting career. It sounds so stupid,” he said.
While in her apartment, Lily says the actor tried to kiss her, which she “had a cautious amusion” at first, but says that when he tried to go further, she said no.
“The next thing I knew, he pulled down his pants and got in front of me,” he said.
Nothing makes a statement
Following the allegations, Noth issued a letter from his team on Thursday.
“The accusations made to me through other people I met years, if not decades, ago are categorically false,” it reads.
“These stories may have been only 30 years ago or 30 days ago, it doesn’t mean no, it’s a line I didn’t cross. The meetings were consensual.
“It’s hard not to question when those stories come out. I don’t know for sure why they are emerging now, but I do know this: I didn’t attack those women. “
An old friend of the star said his close friends supported him, but his wife, Tara Wilson, 42, was disappointed after discovering him unfaithful.
The couple have two sons, Orion, 13, and Keats, 18.
The friend told The Sun exclusively: “He would possibly not be monogamous, we have established that his wife did not know.
“If anything, he’s to blame for that. She is in Los Angeles and is very upset. . . It is ok. They had planned to spend Christmas together, but this is now unknown.
The source continued: “There are two sides to each of the accounts and other people want to know that before they judge.
“The Chris I met is the Chris who is described through those women.
“All his friends help him. It’s a flirtation, but not sordid. It’s not a Weinstein. Je and I think it didn’t happen as it would have been described. “
