Meet Lisa Gentile, The 4th Woman To Accuse Chris North
New York singer Lisa Gentile has accused “S*x and the City” actor Chris North of sexual assault that happened allegedly in 2002. The singer claimed Chris approached her s*xually in her apartment. He threatened to ruin her career if she ever spoke up after giving her a ride home from the Midtown bistro Da Marino.
During a press conference with Gloria Allred, her attorney, Lisa revealed that she was afraid to come forward because of Chris’s power and his threats to ruin her career. Lisa shared that she met him for the first time in 1998 because he was “regular there and good friends with the owner Pasquale Marino.”
She used to visit Da Marino with her family and friends and often saw him dining and hanging out.
On the night of the alleged attack in 2002, Gloria was ready to leave the bistro and Chris offered her a ride. After arriving at her apartment, Chris asked if he could come up. Gloria had replied that she had nothing to offer for him to drink. To which the actor replied that he didn’t want anything and just wanted to see where she lived.
In her apartment, Chris almost immediately started kissing her in the kitchen. Gloria shared, “Then he leaned against the kitchen countertop and forcibly pulled me against him. He was slobbering all over me. I quickly became uncomfortable,”
The actor became aggressive and pushed her bra up despite her protests. Gloria claimed about trying to stop him but he forced his hands to pull up his shirt exposing his belly and he pushed her hands down towards his private parts. But, she pushed him away and got out of his hold, and yelled “No, I don’t want this.”
Before Chris left the apartment, he started screaming and calling her a tease and a b****.
The very next day of the incident, the actor called her on her roommate’s phone and threatened her. Chris threatened to blacklist her in the business. After he hung up the phone, she called her parents crying.

The singer had her parents as her inspiration to pursue music. She inherited all their collective traits and started singing at 6, songwriting at 11, and co-writing with her parents at 13. By 15 she was recording her original songs and doing voiceover work, jingles, and background vocals in professional studios all over New York City.

Her first big break came almost immediately after college when discovered at The Bitter End by producer Keith Diamond (Billy Ocean, Mick Jaggar, Sheena Easton). They began working on her first major label record, but it came to a halt when Keith died suddenly of a heart attack.
Lisa finished the songs and took them to producer Dave Greenberg (Patti Rothberg) and released them in her first CD, “Becoming” which sold over 10,000 physical copies from the stages across the country and garnered the attention of NPR and radio stations around the globe.
