Actress Ashley Judd's Recent Revelation She Was Sexually Harassed By A Hollywood Movie Mogul Has Prompted Singer-turned-tv Personality Lance Bass To Open Up About His Experience With A "Paedophile" Who Inappropriately Touched Him When He Was A Teenager.
The Double Jeopardy star detailed her alleged experience with the unnamed movie executive in Variety.com and while discussing the topic in a promo for Wednesday's (07Oct15) episode of The Meredith Vieira Show in the U.S., the former N' SYNC star claimed he also was a victim of a sick predator.
"It happens to men too," he said. "It's a two-way street. It had happened to me when I was 16 or 17 years old. When we ('N SYNC) started, there was someone that we worked with that was inappropriately touching us. I wasn't even aware then, at 16, that this guy was a paedophile and he was touching me. Oddly, I didn't feel victimised at the time because I was very aware of it."
Bass never told anyone what happened, but alluded to the fact some of his bandmates were also victims - and they would discuss the unnamed paedophile's actions among themselves.
"We would talk about it," he added. "We would kind of joke about it but it's not a joking thing - but as a kid, it was just odd. I am glad that we were aware of it and we didn't feel victimised at the time."
