In quotes published in The New York Post, the "Believe" singer claims Spector propositioned her for sex when she was just 15, after meeting her through her former boyfriend, musician Antonino LoTempio. "He might have been a demigod to many, but he acted weird, and I didn’t like how he stared at me," she wrote. She alleged that Spector asked to sleep with her in French.
