Teen girl sues band Buckcherry, claiming she was coerced into making porn


Rock band Buckcherry is being sued by a 16-year-old girl who says she was lured to a nightclub under the guise of appearing in a music video, but was coerced into drinking heavily and making a lesbian porn video.

The girl, identified as "Jane Doe" in a suit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Sept. 7, claims she suffered "embarrassment, humiliation, emotional distress, mental anguish and severe shock to her nervous system" because of the video's posting on the band's Web site and widespread Internet availability.

"You can imagine the panic this girl felt when this video started getting aired," her attorney Douglas Silverstein of Kesluk & Silverstein told the Los Angeles Times. "She's been called a lesbian at school. She's had to switch schools because of that video."

The teen's complaint includes allegations of sexual assault, sexual battery, sexual harassment, invasion of privacy, infliction of emotional distress and conspiracy. She is suing Buckcherry, Warner Music Group, Atlantic Recording Corp., and other individuals and companies involved in the production of the videos for more than $25,000.

The band and its label have since pulled the video off the Internet.
