Actor Andy Dick has been fired from the independent film Raising Buchanan after he was accused of sexual harassment and misconduct, the Hollywood Reporter reported Tuesday. The 51-year-old actor reportedly groped people’s genitals, kissed, licked, and propositioned at least four people on set. Dick told the Reporter that he may have licked people and said he did make advances to some people on the production, but adamantly denied groping claims. “I didn't grope anybody,” he said. “I might have kissed somebody on the cheek to say goodbye and then licked them. That's my thing—I licked Carrie Fisher at a roast. It's me being funny. I'm not trying to sexually harass people.” Dick has been accused of sexual misconduct several times and has occasionally been arrested. He was also sued in 2010 for exposing his genitals and rubbing them on a man's face during a comedy routine.
