Taylor Swift reveals her shock of 'horrifying groping moment' in court battle
POP superstar Taylor Swift yesterday described the “horrifying and shocking” moment she was allegedly groped by a former radio DJ.
Taylor Swift appeared in court in Denver accusing former DJ David Mueller of groping her
Swift, 27, said David Mueller reached up her skirt and grabbed her bottom during a fan meet-and-greet in 2013.
And today she appeared before a court in Denver to testify for the first time, adding “it was a definite grab... a very long grab”.
Mueller, 55, denies the accusations. But the Bad Blood singer told the court: “He stayed latched on to my bare **** cheek as I lurched away from him. I got as far away from him as I could.”
She told the court it appeared as though Mueller and his girlfriend, who stood on either side of her, had “had a few cocktails”.

When Mueller’s defence lawyer, Gabriel McFarland, questioned why her bodyguard did not step in, the 27-year-old said: “No one could have expected this to happen. It had never happened before. It was horrifying and shocking.”
The row erupted after Swift’s representatives told Mueller’s employers, KYGO management, about the allegations.
