A lot of the crap that happens on movie sets would be a fireable, sueable offense in any office anywhere. Celebrities tell stories about their co-stars messing around and sexually harassing them during filming, and although they try to play it off, they’re saying these things because they want people to know what they went through.
Case in point: Anne Hathaway. She was totally harassed by Stanley Tucci on the set of “The Devil Wears Prada.” She says Tucci elbowed her in the chest repeatedly and she had to tell him to stop. The asshole didn’t just do it once, he did it again and again and it was painful and probably embarassing to her:
Actress Anne Hathaway says her co-star Stanley Tucci is obsessed with her breasts.
The ‘Devil Wears Prada’ actress revealed her cheeky colleague would repeatedly elbow her in the chest to demonstrate his fondness of her assets.
She said: “He would just smack me in my boob and elbow me.
“It really hurt, so, after about the fourth time, I finally said, ‘Stanley, can you please stay away from my t**s?’”
However, the curvaceous brunette insists Tucci wasn’t deterred by her request.
She added: “He got really flustered and said, ‘What do you expect? You’re flinging those melons around like its harvest season’.”
What an asshole! I would kill the guy - after I sued him for sexual harassment. I’m serious, there’s no way I would tolerate being treated like that by a coworker.
There shouldn’t be different rules for performers and office workers - when you’re on the job, you’re not supposed to grab people. Tucci should know better.
Sure some of the sexual harassment guidelines are a bit strict, and some people like to talk smack, but sexual jokes and comments - if they’re not directed at someone or threatening - are much different than elbowing someone in the chest and telling them they’re “flinging their melons” around.
Stanley Tucci does not have a fabulous career, and he does not deserve one if this is how he treats women.
Another actor who probably deserves his career slump is Ben Affleck. Director Kevin Smith said Affleck engaged in the bizarre practice of sneaking up behind him while he was sitting and putting his balls on Smith’s bare neck while they were working. Christina Applegate also said that Ben put his “junk” on a suitcase during filming for “Surviving Christmas.” Maybe now that he’s a father he’ll keep his “junk” in his pants where it belongs.
Here is Hathaway outside Nobu restaurant on 6/12 with her boyfriend, real estate developer Raffaello Follieri. She is also seen in InStyle Magazine, and in one candid at “The Devil Wears Prada” after party on 6/19.
