Former Fox Sports Hairstylist Sues Network on 14 Counts Including Sexual Battery; Skip Bayless, Joy Taylor Named
Jan 5, 2025, 10:41 PM
A former Fox Sports hairstylist has filed a lawsuit against the network, alleging that a Fox executive used his position to sexually harass women, and that former FS1 host Skip Bayless offered her $1.5 million to have sex with him. The lawsuit, which includes 14 counts including sexual battery, claims that Bayless touched her inappropriately by giving "lingering hugs and kisses, pressing against her breasts," and made repeated advances despite being married. It also alleges that Bayless made inappropriate comments about her religion and deceased father, saying, "Aren't you Muslim? Doesn't your dad have three to four wives?" when she reminded him he was married. The lawsuit names other Fox executives and talent, including Joy Taylor and Emmanuel Acho, accusing Taylor of engaging in relationships with executives to secure job opportunities. Fox Sports has issued a statement saying, "We take these allegations seriously and have no further comment at this time given this pending litigation."
