Chris Kattan Was (Allegedly) Forced To Have Sex With Amy Heckerling While Filming "A Night At The Roxbury"

“Saturday Night Live” alum Chris Kattan claims in a new book that producer Lorne Michaels once pressured him to have sex with a director so she would stay attached to the 1990s comedy film “A Night At The Roxbury.”
In his memoir, “Baby, Don’t Hurt Me,” Kattan said director Amy Heckerling was slated to helm the 1998 movie when she came onto him. Kattan, then 27, writes that he rebuffed the 43-year-old “Clueless” director’s advances.
Okay so this is a fucking wild story that gets better and better the more you read into it. I’ll start with the obvious that Hollywood is a cesspool and nobody should be pressured into having sex with anyone they don’t want to and yada yada yada.
But the very first thing when I saw this headline was that I bet Chris Kattan had Will Ferrell chilling in his pants when he went to fuck Heckerling like he was Quagmire in Family Guy:
Doug Butabi and Steve Butabi, those guys are rascals I’ll tell ya!
The next day, he says he got a call from a “furious” Michaels, who allegedly told him Heckerling was considering backing out of the project.
Michaels allegedly told him that “Paramount would only do the movie if Amy signed on as a director, not as a producer,” and if he “wanted to make sure the movie happened, then [he] had to keep Amy happy.”
“Chris, I’m not saying you have to f–k her, but it wouldn’t hurt,” Michaels allegedly said.
We’ve all gone hogging before man. Just do it and get it over with and blame how fucked up you were. You’ll get shit on for a few mins by your buddies if you are dumb enough to let them find out. Still, that’s not the worst thing in the world.
An SNL spokesperson denied Kattan’s claims saying, “This did not happen.” Show reps also said that the publisher never contacted them to verify the claims from the book.
Lies. He fucked her. Nobody has ever written a tell all book about how they banged the “dumpster fire” (Quagmire’s quote, not mine)
Kattan alleged that ultimately he and Heckerling had a consensual sexual encounter on the couch in her office.
“She thought it would be fun to have sex on Lorne’s desk,” he wrote. “Wow, what a great idea! Jesus Christ. I said a polite ‘F–k, no!’ to that, so we ended up going to her office and having sex on … yep, you guessed it, the ‘casting couch.”
I know what the casting couch guy’s dick looks like more than I know what my own dick looks like at this point. This couch has molded me into the man I am today and I haven’t ever seen it in person. That said if I did I’d love to give it a good sit. For nostalgia reasons. PS – I bet the casting couch guy would make a great guest on Dog Walk with Eddie.
Kattan writes that he was attracted to Heckerling but at the same time “was very afraid of the power she and Lorne wielded over my career.”
This is just a bullshit disclaimer here. Nope nope nope!
He decided not to tell anyone about the incident but wrote that it put a strain on his already fraying relationship with actress Jennifer Coolidge.
In the end, Heckerling signed on as a producer on the movie, which is based on a recurring SNL sketch performed by Kattan and Will Ferrell. John Fortenberry ended up directing.
Heckerling could not be reached for comment. The publisher didn’t immediately return a request for comment.
Okay so if you haven’t seen A Night at the Roxbury, it’s one of the great comedies of our time. Actually no, I take that back – it was hilarious when it came out in 1997 or whatever it was. I saw it in the theaters 2-3 times as a supple 9-10 year old. Now when I watch it it reminds me of how dumb it was but I do get those nostalgia laughs at the same time. That’s when I thought Will Ferrell was at his peak – the SNL, pre Old School years. Even Chris Kattan was funny. If you haven’t seen it, do yourself a favor and watch it though.
