Justin Bieber denies sexual abuse allegations, shows receipts of being with Selena Gomez as proofs
MANILA, Philippines — International pop star Justin Bieber denied allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman named Danielle in 2014.
In his Twitter account, the Canadian singer said that he doesn’t normally address rumors, but sexual abuse is something he doesn’t take lightly.
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.

"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 wrote.
“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," he added.

On June 20, Danielle posted on Twitter about the alleged assault, detailing how she allegedly met Bieber at an Austin music event in March 2014.
“My friends and I were enjoying ourselves the entire night. A man then approached me and my friends and asked us if we wanted to meet Justin. Of course we said yes,” she said.
Danielle said that Justin hang out with the group for a bit and invited them all to accompany him back to his room in Four Seasons hotel.
“Justin had made me agree to not say anything to anyone, or I can get in serious legal trouble. He then asked me to join him in bed. That’s when I asked myself, How in the world is this normal?” she said.
Danielle claimed that Justin sexually assaulted her after they consensually made out, even though she objected to “going too far” with him.
“My body felt unconscious. I don’t want to go into detail about what happened next,” she said.
As of this writing, Danielle's Twitter account has been deactivated.
Justin said that he was never present in Four Seasons Hotel on that night and he was also accompanied by his then girlfriend Selena Gomez.
"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," he said.

"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 added.
He showed more receipts to prove that he stayed in different places with Selena and their friends, and not in Four Seasons.

The other reason this story might say I was staying at the four seasons was because a tweet from 2014 on March 10th not the the 9th says they saw me there . This is that tweet pic.twitter.com/piTHxjajvi

However I never stayed at the four seasons on the 9th or the 10th. This person put another tweet up earlier saying they saw me at the restaurant the following night not the hotel pic.twitter.com/K4WHNRlC6k

Furthermore I stayed with Selena and our friends at an airbnb on the 9th and on the 10th stayed at a Westin because our hotel reservation at LÀ Quinta and not the four seasons was messed up. Here are the receipts for the hotel on the 10th pic.twitter.com/hLNHnvJ6XS

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.

The Pics I showed of me and Selena march 9 in Austin should make it clear that we were together that night and went from the venue to our Airbnb and never went to the four seasons. This is our airbnb receipt where we crashed with our friends pic.twitter.com/4ZDIqjeCIQ

On march 10th selena left for work and I stayed at the Westin as the receipts clearly showed with my friends nick and john before I left town. Once again not at the four seasons. We booked it for a couple days to stay for the defjam show but I bailed on the 11th to head back home pic.twitter.com/Ku15SCYz91

The pop star also said that he’s planning to take legal action against Danielle.
"Every claim of sexual abuse should be taken very seriously and this is why my response was needed. However this story is factually impossible and that is why I will be working with twitter and authorities to take legal action," Justin said.

Apart from Danielle, another woman named Kadi claimed that Justin also sexually assaulted her in Justin’s hotel room in New York City after a meet-and-greet event in May 2015.
I believe Danielle, I am a victim of sexual assault by Justin Bieber too pic.twitter.com/AA0Y72xE1s

Kadi said she made out with Justin on a couch, but things took a turn when he locked themselves in a bathroom and he allegedly began caressing her body.
“I asked him to stop and continued to say that I cannot have sex with anyone prior to marriage,” she claimed.
