Beyonce’s longtime musical partner The Dream has responded to claims he s**ually assaulted a female singer and accused the woman of pushing a “false and defamatory narrative.”

According to court documents which Media Take Out obtained, The Dream [real name Terius Gesteelde-Diamant] asked the court to dismiss Chanaaz Mangroe’s lawsuit that was filed in June.
His legal team wrote, “[Chanaaz is] using the judicial system to propagate a false and defamatory narrative about [The Dream], a highly- respected Black musician in the arts industry, for their own financial gain and to his extreme detriment—and to the destruction of everything he has ever done as a musician and as a Black figure that the current and new art generations look up to.”
Notice how The Dream continuously refers to himself as “Black.” That’s because Chanaaz is a White woman.

“Wigdor followed their usual playbook: first slip the unfiled Complaint to the press to cause sensational headlines, then file it and attempt to rely on the litigation privilege to immunize their malicious conduct, and, finally, leverage the damage they have inflicted to extract a settlement, and to hustle [The Dream] out of hard-earned work and drain his children of important medical needs and present schooling needs.”
The Dream, 46, denied he s**ually assaulted the singer.
His attorney continued, “[The Dream] has a lengthy history of advocacy for women and women’s causes, has personal and professional relationships with many strong and successful women, and supports women coming forward to share their stories of abuse. This is not that: [Chanaaz] is not, and never was, [The Dream’s]victim – full stop.”
“[Chanaaz] and [The Dream] were two adults who engaged in a brief and consensual courtship. There was never non-consensual sex between them; there was never s** exchanged for money or other commercial gain; and [The Dream] never abused [Chanaaz] in any way. Indeed, [Chanaaz] routinely sought out [The Dream] for many years after their interactions ended, unilaterally soliciting s** (and other favors), including in writing, even when [The Dream] refused.”
