A woman who was a candidate on the US version of The Apprentice has accused Donald Trump of inappropriate sexual conduct.
The allegation comes on the same day another woman claimed the Republican White House candidate groped her in a Manhattan nightspot.
Mr Trump has again insisted all the allegations against him are fabricated.
He has also suggested some of his accusers may be motivated by a desire for fame.
The lawyer acting for The Apprentice candidate said Mr Trump kissed her client, Summer Zervos, on the lips when she arrived at his office in New York in 2007.
She also claimed his hands were all over her.
Ms Zervos has said Mr Trump made inappropriate sexual advances towards her during a later visit to Los Angeles.
On that occasion she said he started kissing her "open-mouthed" and pulled her towards him.
"He then grabbed my shoulder and began kissing again very aggressively, and placed his hand on my breast," she said.
"He put me into an embrace and I tried to pull him away. I pushed his chest to put some space between us and said "Come on, man, get real'."
The other accuser, Kristin Anderson, told the Washington Post Mr Trump put his hand up her skirt and touched her underwear.
She said it happened at the China Club in New York in the early 1990s.
Ms Anderson said she shoved the hand away, got up from the couch on which she was sitting and took a good look at the man responsible.
She recognised him immediately as Donald Trump. "He was so distinctive looking - with the hair and the eyebrows. I mean, nobody else has those eyebrows," she is quoted as saying.
At the time Ms Anderson said she was in her twenties and trying to forge a career as a model.
She was paying the bills by working as a makeup artist and restaurant hostess.
She said Mr Trump was a big celebrity whose face was all over the tabloids and a regular visitor to New York's clubs.
Now aged 46, Ms Anderson works as a photographer and lives in southern California.
Mr Trump's campaign spokeswoman said: "Mr. Trump strongly denies this phony allegation by someone looking to get some free publicity. It is totally ridiculous."
The allegations are the latest in a series made by women who have accused Mr Trump of sexual assault and making unwanted physical advances.
Last week a video was released which showed him bragging about being able to grope women because of his fame.
Following the release of the 2005 recording, Mr Trump initially said he was sorry "if anyone was offended" by what he called the "locker room banter".
