Last year Ryan Seacrest was accused by his former stylist – Suzie Hardy – of sexual harassment.
She alleged that he had groped her multiple times and continuously asked inappropriate questions. She also claimed that he had slapped her bum so hard that it left welt marks.
Suzie even had proof to back up her claims.
However, nothing was done against Ryan, and yesterday, he hosted the red carpet for E! at the Oscars.
Since the industry is in the process of calling out this behaviour, people were pretty appalled that he was on the carpet doing his job.
Ryan has continuously denied all the allegations against him, and E! conducted an investigation into Suzie’s case, which concluded that there was “insufficient evidence to support the claims.”
As you may know, Ryan is the producer of Keeping Up with The Kardashians. It was basically him who pitched the show in the first place. Before the show yesterday, Kris Jenner declared her support for Ryan.
“Oscar Sunday wouldn’t be the same without you @ryanseacrest @giulianarancic!!” Kris wrote alongside a photo of her and Ryan. “Can’t WAIT to watch you on the Red Carpet tonight!! I look forward to this night every year! I’m so proud of you!! #BFF #beautifulheart #E! #TheOscars #Oscars2018 #AcademyAwards #AcademyAwards2018“
People were not happy with this declaration.
Thankfully, we had Taraji P Henson shade the hell out of Ryan while being interviewed by him on the carpet.
“You know what the universe has a way of taking care of the good people, you know what I mean?” she said straight to Ryan’s face. Right after, she was interviewed by somebody else. When they asked her how she was, she replied, “I’m great now that I’m in your company.”
