Sports commentator Skip Bayless has been sued by a former hairstylist who claims that he offered her $1.5 million for sex and inappropriately touching her.
Noushin Faraji, who previously worked with the Fox network, says that she used to cut Bayless’ hair. She says that he would give her “lingering hugs after each haircut, putting his body against her own, pressing against her breasts.”
In the lawsuit, she says that the commentator then started to kiss her on the cheeks which made her uncomfortable.
She turned down his advances even when Bayless promised he could “change her life” if she gave in. After suffering from health issues, she believes Bayless would back off…but he did not.
“Instead, Mr. Bayless told her that he wanted to be with her,” the lawsuit reads. “Ms. Faraji panicked and began rambling that there were cameras everywhere, that she had a child, and that she did not want him. Mr. Bayless then grabbed her hands, began kissing them, and offered her $1.5 million to have sex.”
When she asked him to stop and reminded him he was married, he allegedly responded: “Aren’t you Muslim? Doesn’t your dad have three to four wives?”
She informed him that her father was deceased and left.
He still allegedly tried to sleep with her even after the incident.
