Steve Harvey has been slapped with another lawsuit. According to TMZ, the 61-year-old comedian is being sued by a former guest on his eponymous TV talk show. The plaintiff, Dominique Collier, claims Harvey and the series’ production company portrayed her as an overtly sexual single mom who was in desperate need of a makeover. Collier says the segment was exaggerated, contrived, and emotionally damaging.

The suit states the woman was brought on the show after she responded to a casting call for “single professional women who like to show off their looks.” Collier said she was told by producers that the segment would simply showcase her life as a single mother who was also working as a fitness model—both of which were true; however, the woman claims that the actual segment was much different, and far more humiliating, than what she was told.
