The article from AOL Entertainment discusses a lawsuit filed against Jay-Z, where he is accused of raping a woman named Jane Roe in 1999 at a now-closed Manhattan nightclub called the Kit Kat Club. The lawsuit claims that Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, used his power and influence to commit the assault. The plaintiff alleges that she was drugged and raped in a VIP room, leading to severe emotional distress and physical injuries. The case was filed under New York's Adult Survivors Act, which allows a one-year window for survivors of sexual assault to file civil lawsuits regardless of when the statute of limitations expired. The lawsuit also names several other defendants including the club's owners and seeks unspecified damages. Jay-Z's representatives have not yet commented on the allegations.
