Constance Wu has made headlines in recent weeks for accusing an unnamed "Fresh Off the Boat" producer of sexually harassing her on the set of the sitcom in her new memoir. But the actor wasn't initially inclined to share her traumatic experience.
"To be honest, I didn't want to write about that," she told "Late Night" host Seth Meyers on Monday.
"That was the last essay I wrote for the book, and only after being pushed by my editor — like, 'You should write about this. This is what people want to hear.' And I was like, 'I'm done with that chapter in my life.' Because all of the sexual harassment, the inappropriate touching, the telling me to wear short skirts and intimidation — that all only happened in the first two years of the show, when I was still very scared."
