Doe accused Brand of sexually assaulting her in July 2010 while they were working on the movie set Arthur. She said the comedian "appeared intoxicated, smelled of alcohol, and was carrying a bottle of vodka" when he allegedly "exposed his penis" in eyeshot of the cast and crew.

Doe claimed the alleged assault happened that day later in the bathroom. She alleged he "entered after me and assaulted me, as a member of the production crew guarded the door from outside."

In a newly filed affidavit obtained by RadarOnline.com, Doe said she's "concerned that if my identity becomes known publicly in relation to his sexual abuse claim," the "embarrassment, shame, and fear" she continues to suffer after the alleged assault "will be significantly worsened."

Doe said Brand's high-profile status "will be of interest to a lot of people," which she argued "would only further exacerbate those feelings of embarrassment, shame, and fear, leading to irreparable harm to my mental health."

She said one of her biggest fears is that she'll "forever be tied to him on the Internet" if her name is exposed, which would worsen her feelings of "distrust, betrayal, and isolation." Doe also expressed concern for her friends and family, claiming her personal relationships would be affected if her identity was made public.

Brand's accuser said she's worried she'll be blackballed from Hollywood if she's publicly named in the lawsuit.

"I am beyond terrified of being blacklisted in the industry or suffering other negative effects beyond what I already suffered if my name is associated with a sexual assault lawsuit against others in the industry," the legal documents read. "I cannot bear to imagine my career that I love being jeopardized at this point in my life."

"I also fear retaliation against me and those close to me if my name was publicly associated with a sexual assault claim against a celebrity with a social media presence that includes millions of followers, including some that idolize Mr. Brand."
