The series star Chris Noth has protested his innocence for weeks.
He has already been accused of sexually abusing or molesting three women.
The meetings with the women were amicable, claimed the actor from the US series "Sex and the City".
But his statements are becoming less and less credible.
Now another woman has accused him of sexual assault.
Singer-songwriter Lisa Gentile said Thursday that Noth harassed her in her New York apartment in 2002.
Gentile will not report Noth, however, as the alleged assault is already statute-barred, according to her lawyer Gloria Allred.
As Gentile said at an online press conference with her lawyer, Noth went into the young woman's apartment after driving her home.
There he kissed and touched her against her will and became more and more "aggressive," said Gentile.
But she managed to push him away and say "No, I don't want to".
Noth then left the apartment angry and insulted, Gentile reported.
The next day he called her and threatened to ruin her music career if she did not keep silent about the incident.
Serious allegations: rape and death threats
With your testimony, she supports the rape allegations raised by two questions against the 67-year-old. Last week, one of the women said in a report in Hollywood Reporter magazine that Noth allegedly raped her in 2004 in his West Hollywood apartment. The then 22-year-old said he had previously met him at the pool and just wanted to bring him back a book that he had lent her. The other woman said that Noth attacked her in 2015 after a date in his New York apartment. Later, a third woman spoke up, describing another sexual assault in 2010 on the Daily Beast website.
As "Page Six" reported, Noth's former girlfriend Beverly Johnson applied for an injunction against the actor back in 1995.
According to court documents, the model stated that Noth had "hit her in the chest and ribs" and allegedly repeatedly threatened to "kill" her.
"Sex and the City" stars distance themselves from Chris Noth
Noth denied all allegations.
"The allegations made against me by people I met years or even decades ago are categorically false," Noth said, adding that the contact with the women concerned was "consensual."
Noth played the role of Mr. Big in the cult series "Sex an the City". He recently took this up again in the continuation of the series under the title "And Just Like That". The women themselves said that Noth's recent TV appearance and the associated advertising campaign reminded them of the events of that time. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the two women don't know each other. They would have turned to the magazine independently of one another and at different times.
A few days ago, the actresses in the series "Sex and the City" publicly sided with the women who accuse their series colleague Chris Noth of sexual assault.
"We are deeply shocked by the allegations against Chris Noth," said a statement posted on social media by Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis.
