USA – After Harvey Weinstein’s sexual allegations surfaced, several celebrities came forward and shared their own stories of harassment. This time, it’s “Hercules” and “God’s Not Dead” star Kevin Sorbo, who claims he had a troublesome encounter with the late Italian fashion designer, Gianni Versace.
Sorbo, 59, shared her story on Adam Carolla’s podcast while promoting her new faith-based film “Let There Be Light.” He says that he was working as a model in the 1980s, and almost worked with Versace in 1984 before landing the lead role in “Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.”
«He wanted to know me by my height. At 6-foot-3, I wanted me to do fashion shows with these 6-foot-tall women,” she said of Versace. He says the fashion designer invited him to dinner with Sophia Loren, opera star Luciano Pavarotti and Richard Gere.
But the more parties he attended, the fewer people showed up, until it was just him and the fashion designer. There, Versace offered to let him do commercials for his fashion brand. “All of a sudden, his hand went up my leg,” recalled Sorbo, who immediately confronted Versace: “Dude, you know I’m straight?”
But the designer was not impressed. “That’s why I like you. You are not a feminine man. You’re a man’s man,” he joked. «In life, you must in everything. You must play the dog, the cat, the boy, and the girl.
