Emily Ratajkowski And The Director Of The “Blurred Lines” Video Say That Robin Thicke Groped Her During Filming

Blurred Lines is a Satanic skid mark on the backside of America’s chonies, because it turned Robin Thicke into a star, is probably the most-played song on Brett Kavanaugh’s Spotify playlist, and it ripped off Marvin Gaye. And now Emily Ratajkowski, or Emily RideAJetSki as I call her around here, says that while filming the video for it, Robin sexually assaulted her by grabbing her boobs. The video’s director, Diane Martel, says that she watched it go down and immediately shut down filming. The most shocking part about all of this is that Blurred Lines was not directed by Terry Richardson!

Blurred Lines was written by the human version of a spiked drink at a music industry party (Robin Thicke), Pharrell Williams, and accused sex trafficking rapist T.I. It came out in 2013 and hit #1 on the charts in several countries including the U.S. Ever since it came out, Blurred Lines has been called a date rape anthem that should be the new theme song of The Cosby Show. In 2018, a judge ruled that the song ripped off Marvin Gaye’s Got To Give It Up, and Robin and Pharrell were ordered to pay $5 million in damages. A year later, Pharrell denounced the song, saying that he has realized its lyrics are the same language that predators use to “take advantage of women.”

The video featured Robin, Pharrell, and T.I., dancing around while fully dressed as three models, Emily Ratajkowski, Jessi M’Bengue, and Elle Evans, also dance around, sometimes topless. There’s an NSFW version on YouTube, but here’s the official version, which still looks like some shit that a graduate of Uncle Terry’s film school would make:

In 2015, two years after the Blurred Lines video came out, Emily called it the “bane of her existence” and said that there’s a good reason why she looks annoyed in the video, it’s because she was. And according to The Times of London (via The New York Post), Emily writes in her memoir that during shooting, Robin kept with the theme of the song by touching her breasts without permission.

“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,” writes Ratajkowski, now 30, in the book “My Body,” set to be released next month.

She initially enjoyed the shoot, according to the report. But then Thicke, apparently drunk, began to behave boorishly.

“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?,’” the book states.

The experience in the Los Angeles studio made the model feel “naked for the first time that day,” the newspaper reported.

“I pushed my chin forward and shrugged, avoiding eye contact, feeling the heat of humiliation pump through my body,” she said. “I didn’t react – not really, not like I should have.”

Diane tells The Times of London that after she watched Robin grope Emily, she called him out and put an end to shooting. But Diane blamed it on the al-al-al-al-al-al-al-alcoh-ol-ol-ol:

“I remember the moment that he grabbed her breasts,” she said. “One in each hand. He was standing behind her as they were both in profile. I screamed in my very aggressive Brooklyn voice, ‘What the fuck are you doing, that’s it!! The shoot is over!!’”

Martel said that Thicke had been drinking, “sheepishly” apologized and was “contrite” afterward. “I don’t think he would have done this had he been sober,” she said.

After Blurred Lines became a hit, the American-Candian Chet Haze went on to get dumped by his wife Paula Patton for being a drunken, drugging cheater mess, and then went on to stalk Paula with a “get her back album” that flopped on every level. 44-year-old Robin Thicke is currently a judge on The Masked Singer, along with Jenny McCarthy (forming an unholy duo from HELL).

Robin hasn’t said anything about Emily and Diane’s claims, but in 2013, he spat out a stream of gross verbal dingles when he told GQ that in the Blurred Lines video, they were going for an “old men catcalling at girls” vibe and said that he, Pharrell, and T.I. were the perfect dudes to degrade women in the video since they’re a trio of wholesome married gentlemen.

Because all three of us are happily married with children, we were like, “We’re the perfect guys to make fun of this.” People say, “Hey, do you think this is degrading to women?” I’m like, “Of course it is. What a pleasure it is to degrade a woman. I’ve never gotten to do that before. I’ve always respected women.” So we just wanted to turn it over on its head and make people go, “Women and their bodies are beautiful. Men are always gonna want to follow them around.”

And while Robin hasn’t mouth-farted out a response, alcohol has and said, “Err, Diane, I’m pretty sure Robin would have done that even if he wasn’t under the influence of me.”
