Comedian Thrown Off Film Set For "Licking" Co-Stars!
Andy Dick, who has been arrested in the past for sexual assault and harassment, has sensationally been fired from his latest film following claims of "inappropriate behaviour".
Dick, who was once ejected from a TV studio after repeatedly touching Ivanka Trump back in 2007, was working on the feature film 'Raising Buchanan' when four individuals came forward to accuse him of "inappropriate behaviour"... such as groping genitals, sexual propositions and unwanted kissing or licking.
The popular US comedian is best known for his roles in the likes of 'Road Trip', 'Zoolander 2', 'Reality Bites', 'Dude, Where's My Car?', 'Funny People' and 'The Cable Guy'.
Dick denies any sexual harassment and claims he doesn't exposure himself "anymore".
He says: "I didn’t grope anybody. I might have kissed somebody on the cheek to say goodbye and then licked them.
"That’s my thing — I licked Carrie Fisher at a roast. It’s me being funny. I’m not trying to sexually harass people. I didn’t grab anybody’s genitals.
" Of course I’m going to proposition people. I’m single, depressed, lonely and trying to get a date. They can just say no, and they probably did and then I was done.”
He adds: "My middle name is ‘misconduct’. They know what they signed up for.
“I don’t grope people anymore. I don’t expose myself anymore. I do understand that the temperature in the world right now is delicate.”
Dick also claims that he was not drinking during the making of the movie, but admits that he “overtook my medication and took too many Xanax and I was a bit loopy” on the set. But he insists that "didn’t make me rape people".
“I really don’t get it. I’m always trying to be funny and trying to get a date. I still don’t have a date. I am on Tinder and I’m looking,” he said.
“I don’t know the difference between sexual harassment and trying to get a date. In the ’70s, all the girlfriends I got was by kissing and licking their cheek. I don’t know anymore. There were beautiful women and beautiful guys on the set. I flirt with them.
"I might kiss someone on the set and ask them to go to dinner. They are the ones that took it south.”
Andy Dick has been arrested in the past for theft and sexual assault of a 17-year-old teenage girl who claimed he “grabbed and fondled" her breast and pulled her "top down".
He was also charged with sexual assault in 2010 and sued for sexual assault in 2011, but the claimant later dropped the suit.
