Tig Notaro now feels “trapped” by her association with Louis CK after she learned about his reputation

  • In The New York Times’ bombshell story, Notaro said she learned about Louis CK’s alleged harassment soon after selling One Mississippi to Amazon with Louis CK on board as executive producer. Notaro felt an obligation to him because he released her 2012 comedy album, giving her career a big boost. “He knew it was going to make him look like a good guy, supporting a woman,” she says. “Sadly, I’ve come to learn that Louis C.K.’s victims are not only real,” she said by email, “but many are actual friends of mine within the comedy community,” she says, noting that one of his accusers, comedian Rebecca Corry, is a friend of hers. Notaro also confirms that One Mississippi's second season is a fictional treatment of the Louis CK allegations, including the masturbation scene. "We wanted to show that you can be assaulted without even being touched," she told The Times.
