"Love & Hip Hop: New York" star Tahiry Jose is suing a male model, Carlos Fiasco who attacked her right before hitting the stage for New York Fashion Week show.

According to TMZ, the star says that she was so badly injured that she wasn't able to work. After the incident, the star was spotted wearing a neckbrace, but she hasn't confirmed what part of her body was seriously injured.

In December 2014, TMZ reported that Carlos pled guilty for attacking the model during a New York Fashion Week event.

 Tahiry addressed her beating incident on Instagram and thanked her fans for their support before explaining that her attacker couldn't handle her "voice."

"Thank you ALL for your well wishes. I am both appreciative and grateful to have you on my team and call you #teamtahiry! I am sincerely touched by your outpouring of love. As you may or may not know, on Monday, Sept. 8, I was attacked, assaulted and violated, while in the workplace, by a man. I was beaten because I am woman with a voice and refuse to be disrespected. It is more proof that the violence against women is real and needs to be addressed publicly."

She wrote, "The shaming and disrespecting of women/victims of violent abuses must stop. Violence against women must stop; a women's voice and refusal to be disrespected is not grounds for physical abuse. #iamwoman #myvoicematters More to the point, I am home, healing and surrounded by love. Rest assured, I will continue all my efforts and endeavors with the same faith, determination, passion and spirit I have always possessed. Again, thank you! You are ALL heroes of mine!"
