In the story published Wednesday, a 20-year-old female musician said Adams, 44, had inappropriate conversations with her while she was 15 and 16. Adams' ex-wife, actress and singer Mandy Moore, said Adams was psychologically abusive toward her throughout their marriage. Last month, Adams performed at a tribute concert for the late rock singer Chris Cornell. Model Megan Butterworth, who was formerly engaged to Adams, is among the women making accusations against him. She claimed Adams stalled her music career and told her, "You're not a real musician, because you don't play an instrument."
