Steven Seagal sued for sexual harrassment and sexual trafficking


Steven Seagal is being sued for sexual harassment. According to court papers filed last week, Kayden Nguyen, a 23-year-old former model has filed a $1 million sexual trafficking and sexual harassment claim against the “Under Seige” actor, reports The New York Daily News.

Nguyen says she was hired as an assistant, but then was used as a “sex toy.” Reportedly two other women have provided sworn declarations to assist in the lawsuit. Both women worked for Seagal but resigned after he made inappropriate sexual advances towards them.

Seagal’s lawyer Marty Singer chaterized the accusations as “absurd” and says the actor has “no knowledge of these women.”

He continued, "The declarations were clearly prepared by Nguyen's lawyer to be leaked to the media to help bolster his client's meritless claims."

Seagal’s ex-wife former model Kelly LeBrock told Radar that the accusations are “very upsetting.” The couple had three children together. LeBrock also revealed that she was “constantly raped and abused” her entire life.
