British EDM artist Paul Oakenfold has been sued for allegedly masturbating in front of his former assistant, a 24-year-old woman only identified in court documents as Jane Roe.

The sexual harassment accusation was filed in Los Angeles Friday, alleging 59-year-old Oakenfold exposed himself to Roe on four separate occasions from October to November 2022. She also alleged she worked out of the home of the DJ and received verbal abuse from him.

The woman also claimed she reported the incident to the management company she had been working for since 2022, New Frequency Management and Stepanek Management, both run by its CEO Paul Stepanek, only to sign a non-disclosure agreement "under duress" and had her hours reduced until she was let go in March 2023, thus violating her employment rights.

Roe additionally claimed Stepanek bragged his insurance policies would protect him from any lawsuit regarding Oakenfold or being found "guilty by association."

Roe was seeking multiple damages to the two firms she previously worked with north of $25,000.

Oakenfold became famous for remixing for artists such as U2, Madonna, Britney Spears, and Rolling Stones.
