The Valley's Janet Caperna accuses co-star of 'sexual assault'

The Valley's Janet Caperna has sensationally accused her co-star Danny Booko of 'sexual assault,' prompting outrage at her from other cast members. Her allegation stems from remarks made by Janet's husband Jason Caperna on an episode of the Bravo series that aired in April. During the April episode, Jason claimed Danny, 41, drunkenly placed his hand on The Bachelor alumna Jasmine Goode's thigh at a Halloween party, telling her: 'Get Daddy a drink,' then 'grabbed' the rear end of Jasmine's friend Melissa Carelli. On this week's episode of the show, Janet, 39, brought up the alleged incident and told co-star Kristen Doute that Danny 'sexually assaulted Jasmine and Michelle.' Kristen reacted with horror, saying Janet had descended to a 'new low' and 'crossed a f***ing line' by using the phrase 'sexual assault,' engaging in 'slander' against Danny and 'attempting to ruin someone's life that doesn't deserve it,' via Us Weekly. Danny who previously apologized to Melissa and Jasmine for behavior Jasmine had described as 'inappropriate,' responded to Janet's comments on the new episode: 'How many times have I owned up for it? You can't just keep bringing it up like that.' has contacted a representative for Danny for comment. Danny, pictured on his Instagram, responded to Janet's comments on the new episode: 'How many times have I owned up for it? You can't just keep bringing it up like that.' His supposed conduct at the Halloween party first came up on the April 29 episode of The Valley, as related by Janet's husband Jason. 'Not too long ago, Jasmine was in a situation where Danny was blackout drunk and was really inappropriate,' claimed Jason on that episode. 'Danny approached Jasmine, put his hand on her thigh and said: "Get Daddy a drink," referring to himself as "Daddy,"' he alleged further. 'And then when she went to go get "Daddy" and some other people a drink as well, he approached Jasmine's girlfriend Melissa and grabbed her butt.' Later on, reality TV cameras also captured Jasmine confronting Danny about the party, saying: 'You were inappropriate with me and her.' Danny expressed contrition when the subject came up, saying to Jasmine: 'That was completely out of my character. I am sorry.' The topic arose again on this week's episode at the Hawaiian boat party Kristen gave to celebrate her engagement to Luke Roderick. Kristen and Janet were speaking one-on-one at the fete when the conversation turned to Danny and his wife of a decade Nia Sanchez, who was Miss USA 2014. Janet asked if she had engaged in an 'attack' on 'Danny and Nia, or I said out loud what Danny did what he did?' adding: 'I said out loud: "Yes, he sexually assaulted Jasmine and Michelle."' At that point, Kristen extricated herself from the exchange with Janet and went over to Danny and Nia, whom she apprised of what she just heard. In a confessional, Nia described Janet's outburst as 'absolutely terrible,' arguing that 'I don't think anyone should be using those words unless it's the person involved. Janet wasn't there. It has nothing to do with her.' Meanwhile Danny, having previously apologized to Jasmine and Michelle, now said: 'How many times have I owned up for it? You can't just keep bringing it up like that.' Kristen came down firmly on Danny and Nia's side, accusing Janet of having reached a 'new low' by referring to his purported behavior as 'sexual assault.' 'How dare she say those words about Danny?' Kristen demanded. 'She's crossed a f***ing line. It's actual slander. It's actual defamation. She's attempting to ruin someone's life that doesn't deserve it.' Janet was initially unrepentant, pointing out that her husband is a lawyer and insisting that her description of events was accurate. 'Unfortunately for Danny, the definition of what he did is sexual assault,' she maintained. 'I'm sorry that he did that but I'm not going to be painted as the bad guy for talking about something that happened. That's bulls***.' By the time she spoke to Danny and Nia at Kristen's boat party, Janet said: 'I used the definition of what happened that night, and I'm sorry that I had to do that.' The episode aired one week after Janet made all of her social media accounts private because she had been subjected to a deluge of death threats. 'I'm sick of threats and slurs being normalized because "we signed up for this when we joined reality TV,"' she told 'That's sick and not normal and I'm not ever going to pretend it's normal or acceptable to message strangers threats and slurs,' she continued. 'It's sad to me that people go this far, it's definitely the worst part about this "job,"' she explained. 'I'm learning how to put boundaries on social media in place and learning as I go. I support healthy dialogue around reality TV and think some of the best conversations about modern culture stem from shows like ours.' Janet acknowledged: 'I'm far from perfect, and people are seeing the best and worst of all of us when we put our lives in front of cameras. My hope is people can have fun conversations about reality TV without going as far as some have recently.'

No idea what happened. 'I just read through the journal and it's like a movie. So, I only died four times. The ticker stopped for about 20 seconds.

I was body-shamed by two of the world's biggest supermodels... now I'm fighting back

A former contestant from America's Next Top Model claims that she was body-shamed on the popular competition series. Sarah Hartshorne appeared as the only plus-size model on Cycle 9 of the show, which was created, executive-produced, and hosted by Tyra Banks. In an excerpt from her new memoir seen by Daily Mail, Hartshorne recalls filming the makeover episode of the season, which is where all the contestants would have their hair and appearance drastically transformed as part of a wild photoshoot challenge. Each cycle, the makeover episode would usually include one or two girls who hated their new looks, and then their meltdowns would provide huge drama for the show. When it was Hartshorne's turn to get made over, Banks told her that her long brown locks would be cut into a short blonde pixie cut. While Banks and her co-hosts may have expected Hartshorne to be upset over losing her chestnut tresses, she was actually thrilled with the 'edgy' new look. However, when it came time to film her interview with producers, Hartshorne believes that they tried to coax a negative reaction out of her. 'Are you worried it's going to look masculine?' one producer allegedly asked her. 'Are you worried that this will make you look even curvier? That maybe you'll look more plus-size?' she says they continued. Suddenly feeling 'defeated' after her initial joy, Hartshorne responded, 'Well, I hadn't been worried about looking curvier with this haircut, but I kind of am now.' Hartshorne claims that the producer then started quizzing her on how she felt about the racy photoshoot that she had just done. 'Were you nervous about wearing something so revealing at the photoshoot?' they asked, according to Hartshorne. Hartshorne said that she wasn't nervous at all about the shoot, and that she was so comfortable in her skin that she wouldn't have minded posing completely naked. Pressing her further, she claims that the producer then asked, 'But weren't you worried, as the plus-size contestant, about baring your stomach? And showing so much skin?' When Hartshorne was eventually eliminated from the show in episode seven, she was then criticized for being too slim despite her entire storyline previously centering around her role as the only plus-size model on the season. During her elimination, Banks told her, 'You're very, very good, but the judges feel that your place in the industry is kind of confusing right now, because models are so, so, so skinny or they're plus size.' She continued, 'And you're losing weight. So you're neither. 'And where does that leave you? It's up to you to decide. If you're not confident in yourself, how can we be confident in your abilities?' This isn't the only time during her tenure on the show that Hartshorne says her size came into question. In a previous interview with Page Six, the brunette claimed that legendary supermodel Twiggy, who was a judge on her season, compared her to a 'ham' and criticized her appearance. 'I'm very surprised that this is such a good photo because in person you're actually not very attractive,' she claims Twiggy said. has contacted Banks and Twiggy for comment. Now Hartshorne is fighting back with her tell-all book, 'You Wanna Be on Top?: A Memoir of Makeovers, Manipulation, and Not Becoming America's Next Top Model.' The book, which was released this week, reveals all about Hartshorne's time on the series and her life after reality TV. America's Next Top Model premiered in 2003 and ran for a total of 24 seasons, or 'cycles,' until its cancelation in 2018.
