In a series of tweets Tuesday afternoon, Crews revealed that he was groped by an unnamed male executive at an industry party last year.

Crews admits that he would have lashed out at the man, had it not been for how the incident would've been perceived: 240 lbs. Black Man stomps out Hollywood Honcho.”

After telling the man’s co-workers about the incident, he recalled receiving an apology the next day and made the decision not to take the incident further, out of fear of being ostracised in the industry.
