she met Brown at the Crystal Lounge nightclub on the Champs Elysee Rapper Chris Brown has denied that he raped a model during a drug-fueled party that turned 'violent and brutal' in his five star hotel in Paris
'For my daughter and my family this is so disrespectful and is against my character and morals,' Brown wrote in an all-caps caption to an Instagram post on Tuesday following his detention in Paris
'This is false,' he wrote.The image on the post simply read: 'This b***h lyin'.Brown, 29, and two other men detained in the case were released from custody on Tuesday night after staying overnight in jail, the Paris prosecutor's office said
Prosecutors said the investigation is ongoing.The woman at the center of allegations said her horrifying ordeal occurred at the Mandarin Oriental in the center of the French capital, where suites can cost more than $24,000 per night
It was in the exclusive hotel that the 24-year-old woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, says she was attacked by Brown, his bodyguard and a family friend
In an interview with French Closer magazine, the woman said she met Brown 'through a friend' who works at the Crystal Lounge nightclub on the Champs Elysee
'This friend asked me what I was doing the next day, and if I would like to meet Chris Brown,' said the woman, who finally met the rapper on January 15
'I said yes and the next day, on Tuesday, I had an appointment at 11.30pm at the Mandarin Oriental hotel to meet the rapper
At the reception of the hotel, I found myself with friends of his and other girls
We went up to his suite to pick him up and we all went to a nightclub called 'The Quay'
'Everything was going well.Around 4am, they decided to go back to the hotel.I wanted to go home, but someone in Chris Brown's entourage took me by the arm and said: 'Come on, we'll have a good evening
' 'Leaving the nightclub, there were two Mercedes vans that were full up.So I said, 'There's no place, I'm going home
'Then I was told, 'No, come on!'.And I was put in Chris Brown's car with another girl
' The group got back to Brown's rooms at the Mandarin Oriental.The woman told Closer: 'Before entering the suite, the bodyguard took all our cell phones
It didn't seem surprising given the artist's notoriety and I didn't worry.Once in the suite, we were offered drinks
There was cocaine and cannabis.'There were about fifteen girls, friends of Chris Brown
The music was loud, people were coming in and out .It was a bit chaotic.' Asked if prostitutes were present, the woman said: 'I don't know
There were only very pretty girls.' She continued: 'At one point, I went to the bathroom
Chris Brown followed me and took me by the right arm.He made me enter a sort of dressing room
He closed the door.' Saying the rape followed, the woman explained: 'It lasted 25 to 30 minutes
It's still too difficult for me to explain in detail what he did, but it was brutal and violent
'He was threatening and aggressive.I was very afraid.Once it was over, he opened the door
I told him that I wanted to pick up my cell phone and go home.'Chris Brown went to see one of his friends
I thought this person was going to accompany me to the bodyguard for my cell phone, but that's not what he did
'He took me to his room, he locked the door and he abused me too.It was the same with the bodyguard
All I wanted to do was go home.I was too scared.There were three muscular men, aggressive and menacing
I couldn't do anything.I'm traumatized, I can't overcome what happened to me and resume my habits
It's horrible, I'm lost.' Asked by Closer how she managed to escape, the woman said: 'I said that I had to go to bed, that I had classes the next day
I cried.When he saw me like that, he returned my cell phone and I left.' Following the attack in the early hours of January 16, the woman waited two days, until Friday January 18 to go to the police in Paris
Confirming she had been hesitant, the woman said: 'Yes.I was scared.They have my address, my cell number, my picture
'But I didn't want them to be able to do the same thing to other girls.Chris Brown is the kind of person who thinks himself powerful and thinks himself above the law, but no
I'll go to the end.Abused three times in the same evening by three different men – it's unbearable to live with
' The woman said she did not know if other women claim to have been raped that night
'I don't know,' she said.'Sometimes girls do not dare to speak.They are scared and I understand them, but I want them to stop doing this to girls who have not asked for anything
'I just thought I was having a good night with a star.I didn't imagine that I was going to find myself locked up with aggressive and menacing men who forced me to do things I did not want to do
' The three men, including Brown, were finally arrested at the hotel on Monday, and face charges of 'aggravated rape' and 'violation of drugs legislation', including using a 'banned drug'
Referring to Brown, a prosecuting source in Paris said: 'He is accused of a rape and is being held at the judicial police offices in the 1starrondissement
'He was arrested with two others on Monday, and interviews and other enquiries are ongoing
All three men can be held for a period of up to 48 hours.' A source close to the case claimed yesterday that 'a number of the suspects were carrying cocaine, which police found at the hotel after responding to a complaint
' The singer's bodyguard is one of the two other men detained, according to police officials
Brown's publicists at Sony Music would not immediately comment.In 2009, Brown was charged with domestic violence in the United States against superstar singer Rihanna, his then girlfriend
He admitted the offences, and was sentenced to community service.He completed his probation in that case in 2015 but has been beset by a series of further legal issues including further accusations of assault
The musician has been seen in the French capital in recent days attending events in the city's fashion week
On Saturday night he was seen with his model girlfriend Ammika Harris at Paris nightclub Cirque Bonheur
Le Crystal, also known as the Crystal Lounge, describes itself as a 'VIP clubbing experience bang in the middle of Paris'
Brown was discovered by a record label when he was a boy working at his father's gas station in Virginia
First identified as a rapper, Brown has since found success with his rich singing voice
He is best-known for hits in the 2000s such as 'Run It' and 'Kiss Kiss.'He retains a loyal fandom, including nearly 50 million followers on Instagram
