The 37-year-old comic once starred in the short-lived sitcom "Whitney" alongside Chris D'Elia, who has come under fire for allegedly sexually harassing underage women.
The comedian began fielding heat from users on Twitter after one woman came forward with allegations on Tuesday that she couldn’t fathom D’Elia, 40, being cast “as the pedophile" in Netflix's series “You."

Several more accusations came to light, including exposing himself to a woman and blackmailing another, holding her nude photos over her.

"Girls should be able to be a fan of a comedian they admire without becoming a sexual target," she concluded. "It's the adult's responsibility to be an adult."
D'Elia has denied the allegations in a statement to TMZ.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"I know I have said and done things that might have offended people during my career, but I have never knowingly pursued any underage women at any point," he said. "All of my relationships have been both legal and consensual and I have never met or exchanged any inappropriate photos with the people who have tweeted about me."

The stand-up comic added: "That being said, I really am truly sorry. I was a dumb guy who ABSOLUTELY let myself get caught up in my lifestyle. That’s MY fault. I own it. I’ve been reflecting on this for some time now and I promise I will continue to do better."
