A former contestant on Project Runway accused Andy Cohen of being a “predator” worse than Harvey Weinstein on set, and she claimed he “proposition[ed]” designers to “have a threesome.”
Kenley Collins was a designer on season five of the show, which was produced by The Weinstein Company at the time. From 2004 to 2008, Andy was its executive producer. In recent years, he’s faced lawsuits from several Bravo stars over alleged misconduct.
In a series of Instagram videos, Kenley accused Andy of being a predator.
“Do you guys really think Harvey Weinstein was the worst one on set? Andy Cohen was,” she said in one post, via Radar Online. “Andy Cohen was disgusting, horrible, worst, predator with the gays, hopping around the set like, ‘Hey T*****!'”
“We called you ‘The Gay Weinstein’, acting like a f****** clown on set,” said Collins, who claimed Andy “proposition[ed] designers to have a threesome.”
She also referenced NeNe Leakes’ past lawsuit, in which she accused Andy of contributing to a hostile work environment.
“NBC can pay all the money in the world to cover your a** after Nene spoke the truth about you. You’re a racist predator. You’re finished,” said Kenley.
“It’s been a scary yet freeing past few days. I’m not stopping. There is more to come,” she said in another post. “Thank you guys for the love and support. I did not expect that. I’m very touched. Stay tuned.”
As of now, Andy hasn’t publicly issued a response.
In May 2024, a Bravo spokesperson addressed allegations of misconduct via lawsuits from Leah McSweeney and Brandi Glanville.
“The outside investigation into the recent allegations made by Brandi Glanville and Leah McSweeney against Andy Cohen has now been completed, and the claims were found to be unsubstantiated,” the spokesperson told Page Six at the time.
But Leah’s lawyer, Gary Adelman, told the outlet, “This is perfect timing. One line so they can repeat it to all the advertisers at the upfronts. How do you have an investigation without speaking with to anyone? As far as we know, no one ever contacted our firm … We look forward to reviewing all of the interviews, evidence and final reports of the investigation that [NBCUniversal] conducted, when we receive them during the discovery phase of the lawsuit.”
