Kara DioGuardi’s former Congressman father Joe DioGuardi has reacted angrily to the ‘fall-out’ from shocking sexual abuse revelations his famous daughter made in her new book A Helluva A High Note.

The former American Idol judge reveals in the ‘tell-all’ that at the age of 11 a teenage family friend repeatedly molested her.

There is also disclosure on how a "fairly known music producer" sexually forced himself upon her after a cordial dinner date.
