Marilyn Manson has claimed that actress Esmé Bianco's sexual assault allegations against him are part of a "coordinated attack by multiple plaintiffs."
Manson made the claim in a new court filing seeking to dismiss Bianco's lawsuit, filed in April.
The actress, who is known for playing Ros on HBO fantasy series "Game of Thrones," said she was physically, sexually, psychologically and emotionally abused during their relationship over the years.
The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles federal court, claims that Manson "used drugs, force, and threats of force to coerce sexual acts from Ms. Bianco on multiple occasions."
Bianco accuses Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, of raping her "in or around May 2011."
Manson denies "each and every" allegation in the new filing and asks the court to dismiss the case against him.
Several women, including "Westworld" actress Evan Rachel Wood, have accused the 52 year-old singer-songwriter of abuse during their relationships.
Three other women, including Manson's former personal assistant Ashley Walters, model Ashley Morgan Smithline, and a woman who has chosen to remain anonymous, have sued Manson.
