Steven Seagal told Jenny McCarthy to strip, made her cry, she says
Old evidence has emerged that action actor Steven Seagal might just be a dirty, dirty perv.
The latest comes from actress Jenny McCarthy, who in 1998 told “Movieline” magazine that Seagal asked her to strip during a casting call for “Under Siege 2,” according to CBS Crimesider
Here is her account:
“I go inside his (Seagal’s) office, which has shag carpet and this huge couch, and he’s by himself and says, ‘Sit on my couch.’” She continued, “[He says] ‘So, you were Playmate of the Year?’”
“Then he said: ‘take off your dress,’” McCarthy continued. “I just started crying and said: ‘Rent my Playboy video, you a*****e!’ and ran out to the car.”
Kayden Nguyen, a 23-year-old model, sued Seagal for $1 million on Monday in Los Angeles, alleging he sexually harassed her and engaged in sex trafficking, the Associated Press reports.
Nguyen lawsuit alleges Seagal hired her as an executive assistant and flew her to Louisiana while he was making the reality series and repeatedly groped and fondled her without permission.
Seagal has denied her claims.
As part of a 1998 article, nine other women told “Penthouse” magazine Seagal had harassed them, CBS said.

George Lopez: ‘I was not Lenoed’
Comedian George Lopez does not think highly of Jay Leno and how he treated Conan O’Brien.
The star of “Lopez Tonight” today told CBS “The Early Show” host Julie Chen that he was not ‘Lenoed’ as part of the deal the will bring O’Brien to TBS.
When asked what that mean, Lopez said Lenoed is being dinged by someone who pretends to have your best interest at heart, but is really just out for themselves.
Then he said ‘ouch.’
TBS announced Tuesday that Conan’s new show will air Mondays through Thursdays at 11 p.m., shifting Lopez’s show to midnight.
That was at least the second time this week Lopez used the term ‘Lenoed’ to described the scandal that saw O’Brien kicked off the “Tonight Show” in favor of Jay Leno.
“I am not getting Lenoed, I welcome Conan,” Lopez told Larry King earlier this week.
Conan was concern that Lopez was not being bumped the same way he had been, Lopez said, adding that he helped convince Conan to take a deal with TBS.
Lopez also took the opportunity to slam Leno’s audience during this Early Show appearance, saying they were the early bird crowd where as his audience is around 33 years old.
