Texts from around the time she turned 16 show Adams appearing to ask for sexually suggestive photos of her.
I never see pics of you anymore.
You were blowing m my mind, he wrote.
The girl says that the first time they Skyped, Adams was naked when he answered.
It was just sexual power, she says.
The statement continues, If, in fact, this woman was underage, Mr. Adams was unaware.
She adds, I want to make music.
Im not going to let Ryan stop me.
He says he did not block her from working with other people.
Adams denies Bridgers claims, as well as all other accusations of misconduct made in theTimespiece.
Shortly after theTimespiece was published, Adams tweeted an apology to anyone I have ever hurt, however unintentionally.
He also calls theTimesstory upsettingly inaccurate and again denies the underage girls claims.
I am not a perfect man and I have made many mistakes.
To anyone I have ever hurt, however unintentionally, I apologize deeply and unreservedly.
But the picture that this article paints is upsettingly inaccurate.
Some of its details are misrepresented; some are exaggerated; some are outright false.
I would never have inappropriate interactions with someone I thought was underage.
I am resolved to work to be the best man I can be.
And I wish everyone compassion, understanding and healing.
