Women's Rights & Issues

7/5/16 Update: It only took two years, but the trauma of the lawsuit and defamation courtesy of a man I have never met is starting to feel like a distant memory. I’ve got an album in the works and my music career is on the comeback. I’ve learned from this experience that I have amazing friends, people who stood by me even when I lost my shit form the stress. On July 19th at 9:30 AM at The Supreme Court of Riverhead, I will be in the same room with the man who sued me for $10,000,000 for the first (and hopefully only) time in my life...

I have been advised that my decision to speak about this case on social media will come under scrutiny, which I welcome. To anyone who is being unfairly dragged into the legal system, I hope I can inspire you to also shout out the injustices from the rooftops until those injustices are corrected...

7/20/16 Update: First of all, never in a million years would I have imagined that the end of my day would consist of lunch with me, my lawyer and Charles Bonfante...I actually had refused to shake his hand when he first introduced himself....

I took the stand. I cursed out the legal system and told the judge, the stenographer, and everyone in that room that P!NKTributegate was a disgrace to the system. I called the legal system a joke and a scam to the judge’s face. I made it clear that every legal professional should be mortified of this case being allowed to be in the system for this long.

I got my legal fees back (minus what I raised online) and a little extra to cover my therapy bills. From a monetary point of view, I got much less then what I deserved. But I gained...an elevated sense sense of self love and self-respect...(and)...an appreciation for the little things in life after pulling through the depression and the severe trauma.

I made eye contact with Charles Bonfante several times and the dude looked like he was going to cry. He has agreed to have a public written apology...He wants to take a couple of weeks to reflect on everything that has happened, so I will grant him that and let him tell you in his own words that he is sorry...I consider myself a humanitarian, and an inconvenient truth is that those values are tested when coming face to face with someone who has hurt you...If mothers of slain children can forgive their killers, I can forgive Charles Bonfante...
