CHARLES BEYER alleged that during the four months he worked as Gest's assistant, the concert producer grabbed his buttocks, mocked his manhood and told people he was a transsexual.

Gest also reportedly wrote directions in his calendar such as "shake my penis" and "dip it in chocolate".

Judge BERNICE BOUIE DONAL threw out the $300,000 (GBP154,000) sexual harassment suit after reviewing the claim.

The suit also charged that Gest once paid bodyguard IMAD HANDI $700 (GBP359) to grope Beyer's crotch.

Handi has vehemently denied the charge and has slapped Beyer with a $3 million (GBP1.5 million) lawsuit.
