Appearing on the third hour of the Today show Crews, who hosts AGT, said “First of all, I can’t speak for sexism because I’m not a woman, but I can speak on behalf of any racism comments. That was never my experience on America’s Got Talent.” You can watch the clip below:
It’s funny that Crews would say that considering a few months ago, as one of a very few men to come forward in the “Me Too” era, Crews claimed to have been sexually assaulted by a male agent.
Union was one of the few actors to throw their support behind Crews after his revelation. In replying to a Twitter post, Union, without mentioning Crews by name, made her feelings on his Today comments known, writing, “Thank u! Cuz girlllllll 😐 Truth telling, wanting change & having MULTIPLE witnesses who bravely came forward to let EVERYONE know I didn’t lie or exaggerate, really exposes those who enthusiastically will throw you under the bus, forgetting quickly who stepped up 4 THEIR truth.”

She continued to go in on Crews, “Why anyone would gleefully get up on TV and tell lies that NO ONE disputed … But we already know.”

Though Union never mentions Crews’ name, we all know exactly who she’s talking about. Crews hasn’t responded.
