Former Singapore Idol judge Ken Lim called the allegations of him asking sexually inappropriate questions “a blatant lie”, as he took the stand for the first time in the trial.
On the stand, Lim said he had arranged to meet the woman in 2012 as a favour for his close friend, who was family friends with her. The friend knew she wanted to join the music industry and hoped Lim could help her. The woman and Lim met again at the same office six days later. It was at this second meeting where she claims he asked her the two sex-related questions.
The woman also said Lim pressured her to smoke at the second meeting, while Lim said she asked him for a cigarette.
