Shia LaBeouf has denied "each and every allegation" of abuse made by his former girlfriend FKA Twigs.
In December, Twigs, officially named Tahliah Debrett Barnett, filed a lawsuit accusing her ex-boyfriend LaBeouf of "relentless" sexual, physical and emotional abuse." The suit also claimed that LaBeouf knowingly gave her an STD.
In response to the lawsuit, LaBeouf's attorney Shawn Holley filed an answer on February 5, stating that the actor "denies, generally and specifically, each and every allegation" made by Twigs.
The document also "denies that Plaintiff has sustained any injury or loss by reason of any act or omission on the part of Defendant, and denies that Plaintiff is entitled to any relief or damages whatsoever."
The answer noted that the singer-songwriter's sexual battery claims are "barred in whole or in part because none of the acts alleged were based on sex and/or the conduct was not sexual."
