Amid Jimmie Allen’s sexual misconduct scandal, his record label dropped him as a client.
“BBR Music Group has dissolved its relationship with Jimmie Allen,” the entertainment firm told Entertainment Tonight in a Friday, June 9, statement. “He is no longer an active artist on its roster.”
BBR — which represents artists such as Jason Aldean, Lainey Wilson, Chase Rice and Jelly Roll — does not currently list Allen’s name under their website’s talent roster.
The “Down Home” crooner, 37, was first accused of misconduct last month after his former manager sued him for allegedly assaulting and sexually harassing her. Allen, however, claimed the pair were involved in a consensual relationship at the time.
“I acknowledge that we had a sexual relationship — one that lasted for nearly two years. During that time she never once accused me of any wrongdoing, and she spoke of our relationship and friendship as being something she wanted to continue indefinitely,” Allen told Us Weekly in a May statement via his attorney, Andrew B. Brettler. “Only after things ended between us, did she hire a lawyer to reach out and ask for money, which leads me to question her motives. The simple fact is, her accusations are not only false, but also extremely damaging. I’ve worked incredibly hard to build my career, and I intend to mount a vigorous defense to her claims and take all other legal action necessary to protect my reputation.”
The Dancing With the Stars alum seemingly confirmed that he had cheated on his then-wife, Alexis Gale, with his former manager when he issued an apology via his social media.
