In a lengthy profile in The Hollywood Reporter, writer Sil Lai Abrams has gone on the record accusing entertainment mogul Russell Simmons and Extra host A.J. Calloway of sexual assault, as well as detailing continuing issues at NBC with how the network is handling sexual misconduct stories.
In the article, Abrams also goes on the record accusing former 106 & Park host and current Extra host A.J. Calloway of sexual assault in 2006.
Since November of last year, Simmons has been accused of rape by six women, including Abrams, and of sexual harassment or assault by seven more.
Abrams had previously alluded to being raped by Simmons in her 2007 book No More Drama, but this is her first time naming him.
