Emily Ratajkowski’s “Blurred Lines” Costar Recalled How The Production Team Panicked When She Left “Abruptly” After Robin Thicke Allegedly Groped Her,“Emily did leave very abruptly. There was kind of a bit of a scramble among the production team, like, ‘What are we gonna do? How do we shoot the rest of the video without her?’”
Emily Ratajkowski’s “Blurred Lines” Costar Recalled How The Production Team Panicked When She Left “Abruptly” After Robin Thicke Allegedly Groped Her
In October 2021, Emily Ratajkowski alleged that singer Robin Thicke had groped her on the set of the music video for his controversial 2013 song “Blurred Lines.”
Theo Wargo / Getty Images“I pushed my chin forward and shrugged, avoiding eye contact, feeling the heat of humiliation pump through my body. I didn’t react — not really, not like I should have,” she writes.
Karwai Tang / WireImageEmily adds in the essay, “With that one gesture, Robin Thicke had reminded everyone on set that we women weren’t actually in charge. I didn’t have any real power as the naked girl dancing around in his music video. I was nothing more than the hired mannequin.”
YouTubeNot long after this excerpt was leaked, the director of the “Blurred Lines” video, Diane Martel, corroborated Emily’s claims.
Craig Barritt / Getty Images for Code8 Beauty“I remember the moment that [Robin Thicke] grabbed her breasts. One in each hand,” she told the Sunday Times. “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?’”

Rochelle Brodin / Getty Images for ISWMPSitting down with Bustle last week, 33-year-old Elle Evans detailed how quickly the tone on set changed after the alleged incident.
YouTubeElle began by noting that Emily and Robin’s scenes were shot on a “closed set,” meaning that none of the other actors were watching.
YouTube“All the stuff with Emily and Robin there together, that was a closed set. So they had no one else watching,” she said.
YouTubeHowever, Elle recounted how quickly Emily left the set “toward the end of the shoot.”
YouTube“The direction we were given is that we were untouchable. You know, ‘Every single guy in place wants you. They would do anything to get you, yet you’re not giving it up,’” Elle began.
YouTube“I remember Diane shouting, like, ‘That’s too sexy. Don’t be too sexy. This is not the club, you know. This is not a lap dance,’” she went on. “There’s parts where I’m sitting on the stool and T.I. is brushing my hair. [Diane] wanted me just kind of chilling, just kind of a little bit of a shimmy shake.”
YouTubeA month after Emily’s claim was made public, she appeared on Watch What Happens Live and revealed she’d not heard from Robin Thicke at all.
“I have not. I have not, no,” she said when host Andy Cohen asked if Robin had been in touch.
And going on to note that she wasn’t expecting any sort of word from Robin, Emily clarified that she’d shared her experience with the public for different reasons.
“The essay wasn’t written as a gotcha moment. It’s about me sort of setting the record straight and sharing the whole truth and my experience with the world,” she said.
