On April 12, 2026, Ruby Rose made serious allegations against pop star Katy Perry, claiming that Perry sexually assaulted her nearly two decades ago at the Spice Market nightclub in Melbourne. The incident allegedly took place in August 2010, a time when both women were reportedly present at the venue, which was known for its vibrant nightlife.
According to Ruby Rose, there were around 600 people in the nightclub during the incident, and she has stated that she possesses ‘photos’ and ‘witnesses’ to support her claims. The former manager of Spice Market confirmed that both women were indeed at the venue, noting that while they were intoxicated, they were not ‘paralytic’.
Initially, Ruby Rose expressed reluctance to file a police report but later indicated that she would contact law enforcement regarding the allegations. As of now, no criminal charges have been filed, and it remains unclear if any investigation has been confirmed by authorities.
In a swift response, Katy Perry’s team described the allegations as ‘categorically false’ and ‘dangerous, reckless lies’. They emphasized that the claims do not reflect the reality of the situation. At the time of the allegations, Perry was attending the Coachella music festival, highlighting the timing of the accusations.
Ruby Rose has a history of making public allegations on social media, and she previously framed the incident as a ‘funny little drunk story’. However, her recent comments have taken a more serious tone, as she described the alleged assault in graphic detail on her social media platforms.
The former manager of Spice Market provided additional context, stating, “Katy kept coming out and dancing with everybody and going right in the middle of the mosh pit,” suggesting a lively atmosphere at the nightclub during the incident.
As the situation unfolds, Ruby Rose has stated, “I have finalized all of my reports. This means I am no longer able to comment, repost, or talk publicly about any of those cases, or the individuals involved.” This statement leaves many questions unanswered, as details remain unconfirmed regarding any potential investigation.
The nightclub where the alleged incident took place has since closed its doors in January 2023, marking the end of an era for a venue that hosted numerous events and celebrities over the years.
