LOS ANGELES — A lawyer for music legend Smokey Robinson pushed back hard Wednesday on allegations of rape and sexual assault against the singer, describing a lawsuit from four former housekeepers as “vile” and “false.”
The lawsuit accuses him of abusing the women, identified only as Jane Does 1 through 4, dozens of times between 2007 and 2024. Robinson’s wife, Frances, turned a blind eye to the repeated acts of rape, they claim, The New York Times said.
But attorney Christopher Frost, in a statement Wednesday, fired back saying the evidence “will show that this is simply an ugly method of trying to extract money from an 85-year-old American icon,” The Associated Press said.

The suit, filed Tuesday, seeks at least $50 million in damages over the alleged assaults. The suit accuses Frances Robinson of enabling her husband’s behavior and creating an abusive work environment.
“We will be addressing the numerous aspects of the complaint that defy credulity as well as issues relating to purported timelines, inconsistencies, and relationships between the plaintiffs and others,” Frost said in his statement.
In the lawsuit, the women accuse Smokey Robinson of waiting until he was alone with them in his Los Angeles house and then sexually assaulting and raping them, in some cases many times over many years.
CNN reports the lawsuit says the women initially were “unwilling” to report Robinson because they were afraid of losing their jobs. They also feared “public embarrassment” and Robinson’s celebrity stature, CNN reports.
Three of the women were concerned about their immigration status being threatened, the lawsuit says.
“We believe that Mr. Robinson is a serial and sick rapist, and must be stopped,” the women’s attorney John Harris said at a news conference Tuesday.
The women, whose names are withheld in the lawsuit, appeared with their lawyers at the news conference, the AP said. They didn’t speak, and they covered their faces with masks.
Frost called the news conference “bizarre theatrics,” and an attempt to “enlist the public as an unwitting participant in the media circus they are trying to create. We ask anyone following this case to reserve judgment as the evidence comes to light and all the actual facts of the case unfold.”
Robinson, with his group the Miracles, were hit makers for Motown Records in the 60s. With the Miracles and as a solo artist, Robinson scored 24 hits on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, four of which reached the top 10. Among his hits were “Tears of a Clown” and “The Tracks of My Tears.”
He was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1987.
