Brandi Glanville claims her Bravo boss, Andy Cohen, treated her like “his little sex worker” and pushed her to hook up with Bravo star Austen Kroll.
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville spoke to The U.S. Sun. In the interview, the 51-year-old claimed that her former Bravo boss, Andy Cohen, treated her like his “little sex worker” and allegedly pressured her to hook up with various Bravo stars and staffers.
In several messages, Andy Cohen peppered Brandi Glanville about her sex life while also suggesting she sleep with Southern Charm‘s Austen Kroll, then share gossip about her performance in the sack. The messages span over a decade, some coming from Andy’s NBC Universal email.
In another message, Andy texted the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, “I really wanted you and Austin [sic] to get together. He had his eyes on you.”
“At Bravocon Andy texted me saying that he wanted me to hook up with his stage manager, and I almost felt like, do I have to do this?” Brandi explained.
“He was saying, ‘I want you, my employee, to f**k another one of my employees. And then also, by the way, I think you should f**k Austen. He has eyes for you.’ Your boss should never talk to you that way,” she continued.
Andy also allegedly texted Brandi on October 17, 2022, writing, “Kind of hoping you and my stage manager hooked up.”
The Bravo star insisted she and the Watch What Happens Live host were never friends.
“We are not friends, we do not hang out outside of work ever, and we were at a work event,” she said.
“I felt this tremendous amount of pressure to please him, but that was too far. I’m not going to go and sleep with someone. He literally thought I would do it. That’s the disgusting part. And as my boss, telling him I need to sleep with another employee [that] he employs. He’s got problems.”
She adds that Andy Cohen’s texts left her feeling “disgusted.”
Brandi continued, “He really is, like, pimping me out. I mean, it felt that way. Like, what am I supposed to go and hook up with these guys and tell you about how the sex is, because you told me to? “That is a different kind of boss. That is a pimp. I am not a hooker. You are not my pimp. And I feel like he even just suggesting that to me – he has some issues that he needs to resolve.”
“Who the f**k does he think he is? Does he think he’s God? Does he think I’m going to run off and spread my legs because he told me to? I think he thinks that I would! I would never do that, but I think he thinks I would. Otherwise, why would he say that to me? Why would he text that to me? It’s very brazen,” Brandi Glanville went on to say.
“Are you that stupid that you’re texting employees about sex? Like he does not care. He doesn’t think he’s gonna get caught. He thinks he can do whatever he f**king wants, and so far, he has,” she claimed.
The Bravo star says she believes Andy Cohen pushed her to sleep with male Bravo stars that he couldn’t hook up with “because they are straight.”
“I think that Andy wants me to take over and conquest [sic] the people that he can’t because they’re straight. So I’m like his little sex worker, and I’m not, I’m sorry. I’m a mom of two. I’ve been in two long-term relationships my entire life. I’m not what he’s made me into in his head. I’m not that, and I have to play the role. And it f**king is disgusting,” she said.
The reality TV says Andy “asked me to tell him about the people I have sex with and who has a big penis.”
“It’s just not boss behavior. You don’t get to do that to me. I don’t have to tell you this, but I’m going to because I need a job and that is abuse of power. It just is. I feel like a f**king prostitute in a weird way,” she said.
Brandi also shared emails about Andy asking her about her ex-husband Eddie Cibrian‘s penis size and how he was in bed.
“The last thing I want to do is talk about my ex, especially his penis size,” Brandi told The U.S. Sun. “But you’re on his show, you’re playing by his rules. You have to answer the question. I said ‘Oh, he’s a nine. He’s great.’ And that being on television is one thing, but then the next day, he starts emailing me to try to get more information about my ex-husband’s penis. And this is private, this is not for public consumption anymore.”
“This isn’t like the joke that he was supposedly making. I don’t even think it’s funny. It’s not a joke that’s just weird, but to follow up and ask more questions. I just in that moment, I knew I had to put up with it. I knew that this is going to be our relationship.”
“I’ve been dealing with very sexually explicit texts and emails for over a decade, and none of them were jokes,” she continued. “I had to act like I wasn’t bothered by it, because what if I said, ‘You’re disgusting.’ You think I would ever work again, or, ‘F**k off’? No, I would be dead in the water.”
Brandi Glanville then revealed that she plans to sue Andy Cohen for sexual harassment.
“I feel like Andy created a character that he wanted me to be and I became that character because I need to work. It’s the only job I’ve had since I was married, and my husband took care of me. So I don’t have a skill set,” she said.
“I had to play ball. And if that means people thinking horrible things about me, which my real friends know are not true, then I just have to deal with the public perception,” she added.
