Yes. 20 years ago! As you immediately noticed.

Groping sounds like another word for what happens when a dance teacher explains moves, recast by an attorney to sound wicked. I know of another case in which groping was a claim made against a blind man and his successful defence was, well, that's what blind people do.

The "aggressive sexual advances" apparently did not end with him forcing himself on anyone as it is not mentioned in the claim. So they said no way, Jose, and he backed off. There's no there, there. Again.

So far, this isn't a pattern of behaviour thing so much as a jump on the bandwagon one.

The lawyers are circling. They smell money in the water. But so far, this has nothing to do with justice. It's the usual legal extortion. The American way.

2003...

Nigel Lythgoe Hit With Second Sexual Assault Case in Less Than a Week
ANOTHER ONE

Published Jan. 02, 2024 10:43PM EST

A pair of former contestants on the reality TV show “All American Girl” are suing the producer, Nigel Lythgoe, saying he sexually assaulted them back in 2003, according to court documents obtained by TMZ. The women said Lythgoe would repeatedly show up on set and grope them while they were in dance costumes and that he assaulted them after the series’ wrap party. Lythgoe allegedly insisted that one of the women ride home with him—and when another woman went with them to protect her fellow contestant, both women received aggressive sexual advances. The women, who filed anonymously, are suing Lythgoe and the production company for sexual assault and battery, sexual harassment, intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence. Lythgoe called the lawsuit “untrue” saying it was “deeply offensive to me and to everything I stand for.” He was also hit with another lawsuit last week filed by the pop star Paula Abdul, who claimed that Lythgoe repeatedly sexually assaulted her while she was a judge on American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance
