Russell Simmons is speaking out against Oprah Winfrey and her upcoming AppleTV+ documentary, that details allegations of sexual misconduct against the music mogul. Russell took to Instagram Friday to address Oprah, who he called a “shining light to my family and my community” and someone “contributing so much to my life that I couldn’t list a fraction of it in this blog.” Over a dozen women have come forward with allegations against Russell, with one unidentified woman filing a $10 million lawsuit in March of 2018 accusing him of rape. The lawsuit is pending after Simmons tried and failed to get it dismissed in August. A California judge ruled that Simmons did not supply sufficient evidence to support his claim that the statute of limitations on the alleged rape had run out.
