Additional details have emerged following the shocking news of Skip Bayless getting sued for s3xual harassment by a former FOX employee.
News of the lawsuit naming Skip, as well as other FOX staffers, including Joy Taylor, was broken by Front Office Sports on Sunday. Their report notes that hairstylist Noushin Faraji accused Bayless of propositioning her to sleep with him and offering her as much as $1.5 million.
According to the suit, Skip began giving Faraji “lingering hugs and kisses on the cheek while putting his body against hers and pressing against her breasts” after she began working on ‘Undisputed.’
Faraji, who worked at FOX for 12 years until last August, claims she repeatedly rebuffed Bayless’ advances, telling him she was not interested in him and didn’t date coworkers.
She even told him she had ovarian cancer after experiencing issues with her left ovary in an attempt to get him to stop, but it only made him “more aggressive.”
Skip Bayless Accused Of Dragging Shannon Sharpe Into Office Drama
Faraji alleges that Skip offered her the aforementioned sum to sleep with him and said he could change her life. She says he also accused her of sleeping with ‘Undisputed’ co-host Shannon Sharpe.
“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.”
Faraji notes having made several complaints to the Human Resources and Employee Relations departments, which all fell on deaf ears.
Dwight Howard Brutally Trolls 76ers Star Joel Embiid For His Flopping Skills

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid has established himself as one of the toughest players to guard in the NBA. By using his combination of size, strength, and skill, the 7-foot center has dominated opponents, leading the league in free throw attempts per game in three of the last four seasons. Despite Minnesota Timberwolves commentators’ criticism, his ability to draw fouls and exploit his physicality has made him a nightmare for defenders.
Former NBA star Dwight Howard recently shared his perspective on guarding Embiid during an appearance on the Thanalysis Show. When asked how he would approach defending Embiid, Howard laid out his strategy after trolling Embiid for his flopping skills.
“He is probably, I think, the toughest to guard because he knows how to flop. He knows how to use his size and his strength when he has to. He can shoot real well. If I was checking him, I would have to beat him up and down the court, not let him get easy points, don’t go for no pump fakes,” Howard said.
“Usually when he gets it in his left hand, he does it with his right, but he likes to left hesi to the pull-up. So, I would be right up on that. So, as soon as have it like this, I’m crowding his space because I know he’s either going to do like this and try to go around me,” he added.
