HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Josh Duhamel is firing back at the Atlanta stripper who claims she had sex with the married actor.
"This is not the first nor will it be the last time that a stripper was paid a large amount of money to sell a false story about a celebrity," Duhamel's rep told People. "This story is absolutely ridiculous."
"These allegations are nonsense," added a rep for Duhamel's wife, Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie.
Nicole Forrester claims she had sex with Duhamel in a hotel a week after he came into the Tattletale club, the Atlanta strip joint where she works as a dancer. Forrester says she has text messages and a polygraph test to support her story.
"We did hook up and had lots of sex and we had a really, really good time," she told Atlanta radio station Q100's "Bert Show" on Monday.
The mother of two originally sold her story to the National Enquirer for more than $20,000, but she now regrets coming forward because her children weren't aware of her stripping ways.
"My son's like: Mom are you doing anything different now? He doesn't want me to do this anymore. He doesn't want me to dance and I feel like I can't dance," she says. "I feel like people are just looking at me. It's just bad. It's just an uncomfortable situation with my children and all their friends know."
When the tabloid told her that it would run the story with or without her cooperation, she agreed to an interview and a polygraph, which she claims to have passed.
"It's the truth. I'm not lying about anything," Forrester says. "I have nothing to hide and he's just guilty as I am."
