Actor on Transparent says Jeffrey Tambor sexually assualted her / Boing Boing
Jeffrey Tambor
Trace Lysette plays Shea on Amazon Studios' Transparent  one of my favorite shows. Lysette says the star of the show   Jeffrey Tambor   sexually harassed and assaulted  her  during the second season.
According to Lysette  when she emerged from wardrobe in her costume â a salmon-colored lingerie top and matching  short-shorts â Tambor  remarked  "My God  Trace. I want to attack you sexually." Alexandra Billings  the third actor in the scene  was present to hear the remark  she confirms. Both "laughed it off because it was so absurd " Lysette says.
A few minutes later  while waiting for a camera setup between takes  Lysette was standing in a corner of the soundstage set. That's when she says  Tambor   dressed as Maura  wearing a green satin kimono and gray wig  approached her.
" He  came in close  put  his  bare feet on top of mine so I could not move  leaned  his  body against me  and began quick  discreet thrust back and forth against my body. I felt  his  penis on my hip through  his  thin pajamas " Lysette says.
Lysette pushed  Tambor  away and "rolled my eyes." Billings was not present for this alleged incident  and several crewmembers were nearby "but they were focused on their jobs. It was discreet. If you were behind  Jeffrey  you might have thought  he  was giving me a hug."
