Stephen A Smith has shared what he’s found out about the woman accusing Skip Bayless of s3xual harassment following a bombshell lawsuit filed last week.
Bayless, a former show host at FS1, is alleged to have made multiple unwanted advances toward Noushin Faraji, a hairstylist who worked at FOX for 12 years. Faraji claims Bayless offered her $1.5 million to sleep with him and began giving her “lingering kisses” while constantly making physical contact with her once she began working with him and Shannon Sharpe at ‘Undisputed.’
Smith, who worked with Bayless on ESPN’s ‘First Take’ for several years before the latter moved to FOX, addressed the lawsuit highlighted by Front Office Sports on his show, ‘The Stephen A. Smith Show’ on Monday.
Stephen A cast doubt over whether Bayless would ever consider handing over that much money to sleep with someone, given how cheap he knows him to be.
“The Skip Bayless I know has a hard time giving away $15,” he declared. “He’s one of the cheapest people I know … But that doesn’t mean that I have any inside knowledge of this — I don’t. And I’m not going to get involved.”
Stephen A Smith Shares What He Knows About Noushin Faraji
The ESPN analyst also claimed to have had conversations about Faraji, whom he does not know, and found out she’s very detailed.
“This person who is a hair stylist, the people that I’ve spoken to in the last 24 hours that have some knowledge about her says that she’s meticulous with her details and she’s going to chronicle things and that’s how she operates,” he added.
“I don’t know her. I know Skip and I’m very, very heartbroken that he finds himself in this situation being accused of these allegations. But I can’t be all over the airwaves being irresponsible and attaching truth or guilt to anything.”
Faraji also alleged that Bayless got even more aggressive in his approach after she tried to get him to back off by telling him she had ovarian cancer and even accused her of sleeping with Shannon Sharpe.
The lawsuit also names FOX executive Charlie Dixon, who Faraji says squeezed her buttocks while they were at a party, as a defendant.
Joy Taylor has fielded accusations as well, with Faraji claiming she told her to “get over it” when she relayed her experience with Dixon and then making fun of her last name once their friendship soured.
Warriors’ Draymond Green Gets Honest On His Heated Exchange With Pistons’ Ron Holland, Commends Officials For Not Calling A Tech Foul

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green is known as one of the most aggressive players in NBA history. Throughout his career, he has been involved in numerous on-court altercations. One notable incident occurred during a recent game against the Detroit Pistons.
During the fourth quarter of an intense game against the Pistons, Dennis Schroder dove into the stands to save a ball that had gone out of bounds. In the process, he accidentally collided with a courtside fan. Following this incident, the officials began checking on the person seated at the courtside.
Meanwhile, heated exchanges took place between Green and Ron Holland. However, the referee decided to let the argument continue without issuing any penalties. In the post-game interview, Green reflected on the incident.
“I thought the officials did a good job. They let it play all day,” Green said after the game. “They let guys talk, they didn’t break it up. Guys started talking again, and they let them play out some more. Beautiful. This game should be better. We’re playing this league now. They probably… you get turned into a robot. You don’t see any of that stuff, and then everyone says the ratings are down. Yeah, of course. No s**t.” Green said.
Green scored just 7 points, along with four assists and five rebounds, in 32 minutes of play. The Warriors won the game against the Pistons with a final score of 107-104.
