Skip Bayless has been named in a lawsuit claiming he touched a former FOX employee inappropriately and offered her money to sleep with him.

According to documents obtained by Front Office Sports, Noushin Faraji is suing Bayless, Fox, Fox Sports, FS1, FS2, FOX Sports EVP Charlie Dixon, and Joy Taylor, among others.

Faraji, who worked at the network as a hairstylist from 2012 to August 2024, is claiming Dixon grabbed her buttocks at a birthday party in West Hollywood and that she was told to “get over it” by Taylor after she told her what happened.

She is seeking unspecified monetary damages and a jury trial.

Faraji claims Bayless began giving her “lingering hugs and kisses on the cheek while putting his body against hers and pressing against her breasts” after she started working on ‘Undisputed.’

 

She says she told him she was not interested in him and didn’t date at work, even going as far as telling him she had ovarian cancer in a bid to get him to back off.

Per FOS:

“Instead, Bayless became more aggressive over the years, according to the suit. He allegedly offered Faraji $1.5 million to have s3x with him–and claimed he could “change” her life. The suit also claims Bayless accused Faraji of sleeping with Shannon Sharpe, his co-star on Undisputed.”

“As the suit alleges: “Approximately one week later, Mr. Bayless made another advance at Ms. Faraji. Ms. Faraji responded: “Skip, stop, you have a wife.” Mr. Bayless responded: “Aren’t you Muslim? Doesn’t your dad have three to four wives?” Ms. Faraji responded that her father was dead, and when Mr. Bayless looked taken aback, she made an excuse to leave.”

FOX & Skip Bayless Accused Of Fostering “Toxic Culture”

Faraji, who has Persian roots, also accuses Taylor of constantly insulting her “on a personal and professional level” after their friendship ended. Taylor is also said to have mocked the pronunciation of her name.

“Ms. Faraji brings forth this action because for over a decade at Fox, she was forced to endure a misogynistic, racist, and ableist workplace where executives and talent were allowed to physically and verbally abuse workers with impunity,” the suit states.

“When Ms. Faraji and others came forward to report the wrongdoing, instead of addressing their concerns, Fox retaliated against them while the perpetrators and those who protected them were inexplicably promoted. This case thus represents yet another in a long line of cases chronicling the toxic culture at Fox, marked by bad faith promises and repeated failures to address a poisonous and entrenched patriarchy.”

Neither Faraji’s attorneys nor FOX Sports responded immediately after they were contacted for comment by FOS.
