NEW YORK — The network MTV has temporarily suspended shooting of “Catfish: The TV Show” while it investigates sexual misconduct accusations made by a woman who appeared on it three years ago.
Ayissha Morgan alleges in YouTube videos she was solicited for sex by a “main person” on the show who she identified by a made-up name, “Jack.” She also said she woke up after drinking with a female producer with the woman “on top of me.”
The show’s host and executive producer is Yaniv “Nev” Schulman, who denied the allegations in a statement Thursday.
MTV says it will conduct an investigation during the hiatus.
