Hank Williams Jr has been accused of harassment by a 19-year-old waitress who claims that the country star tried to kiss her and lifted her in a chokehold, allegations greeted with shock by Williams' publicist Kirt Webster. It's been a bad couple of weeks for the singer; his two daughters were injured in a car crash, an incident followed by rumours sparked by an anonymous caller to a radio show who claimed that Williams has asked for only white personnel to attend to them. On those rumours, and the new accusation, Webster said: "Hank Jr has had to defend himself once already in Memphis last Friday from erroneous allegations, and now this."
