Rachel Bloom Had a #MeToo Moment With NYU Comedy Group: ‘Almost Ruined College for Me’ (Video)
Writer and comedian Rachel Bloom recalled her own personal #MeToo moment, saying that she recently demanded an apology from the people she now says sexually harassed her a decade ago and forced her from the leadership of a sketch comedy group at NYU.
“When I was 19, I got caught in a love triangle with two guys who were older than I was, and I handled myself weirdly because I had just lost my virginity,” the creator and star of CW’s “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” said Monday at TheWrap’s BE Conference in Austin, Tex.
“They were also two of my mentors, so it was like, ‘Yeah, I wanna f— my mentors!’ They were cute and smart. I was caught between them in a way I didn’t quite understand,” said the Golden Globe-winning star, now 30.
