Production on Steven Seagal’s popular A&E reality show, Steven Seagal: Lawman<\/em> has been halted as the actor-turned-cop fights allegations of sexual harassment leveled against him by a lesbian who uses “sex appeal to manipulate men.”<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Lawman<\/em> follows the Under Siege<\/em> actor in his work as a reserve police deputy in suburban Louisiana, but Jefferson Parish Sheriff Newell Normand believes the series would be a “distraction for the department” in light of allegations made against the action star in a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles this week.<\/p>\n

“I did not think it would be in our best interest to continue filming at the present time,”<\/em> Normand said.<\/p>\n

Kayden Nguyen, 23, claims the Steven sexually harrassed her and engaged in sex trafficking while she worked as an assistant for him in 2009. Nguyen, who was flown to live in Seagal’s house in Louisiana, claims the actor repeatedly fondled and groped her without permission. She also alleges two other women were kept at the house and were used by the actor for sexual purposes.<\/p>\n

In related news, Nguyen appeared on The Tyra Banks Show<\/em> last winter, where she admitted that she uses her body “to trick men.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
