Singer Robin Thicke is being accused of groping Emily Ratajkowski during the filming of the video for ‘Blurred Lines’ and inappropriately grabbing her bare breasts.
The famous model revealed the shocking allegations in a new book she is reportedly releasing in the next few weeks. The details are stunning, and Emily clearly believes the singer clearly crossed the line while the duo filmed a sexy scene for the music video.
Ratajkowski claims Thicke grabbed her bare breasts during a take of the popular music video, which became a massive worldwide hit, and included a raunchy version that was released online.
“Suddenly, out of nowhere, I felt the coolness and foreignness of a stranger’s hands cupping my bare breasts from behind. I instinctively moved away, looking back at Robin Thicke,” Ratajkowski alleges.

She continues, “He smiled a goofy grin and stumbled backward, his eyes concealed behind his sunglasses. My head turned to the darkness beyond the set. [The director, Diane Martel’s] voice cracked as she yelled out to me, ‘Are you okay?’”
As you know, Emily was one of three models who appears in the video, each of which is in various states of undress while Thicke sings the lyrics. Obviously, Emily was prepared to shoot partially nude for the video, but says the experience inside an L.A. studio made her feel “naked for the first time that day.”
Snippets from the book appeared today in the Times Of London and included Emily’s reaction, saying, “I pushed my chin forward and shrugged, avoiding eye contact, feeling the heat of humiliation pump through my body,” Emily writes. Adding, “I didn’t react – not really, not like I should have.”
