Andy Dick is the latest Hollywood player facing accusations of being a sexual predator.
The bisexual actor has been fired from an independent film after people on set claimed he sexually harassed them, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Although the entertainment publication does not have statements from the alleged victims, two sources said Dick groped people's genitals and made unwanted advances such as kissing and licking at least four members of the production.
Dick has denied groping anyone, but says it's possible he sexually harassed them in other ways: "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," he told the Reporter.
Dick, who has a well-documented history of offending people in and out of court, joked about his reputation, stating, "My middle name is 'misconduct.' They know what they signed up for." He continued, "I don't grope people anymore. I don't expose myself anymore," referencing onstage acts where he has exposed his genitals.
The actor claims that these allegations are a result of his defending disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein on set in Arizona. "They were so incensed by what I was saying. People are so sensitive," he said. The men made two films together.
The harassment claims was not the only problem Andy Dick had on the set of Raising Buchanan -- he showed up a day late to the set after missing a flight, had not memorized his lines, and brought a friend who disrupted takes by snoring during shooting. Dick also admitted to asking people to have sex with him on set: "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."
Dick said that if he is faced with more allegations he will retire, but if not, he will continue to promote his new documentary, Everybody Has an Andy Dick Story.
