ACTOR Terry Crews is suing the Hollywood agent he says groped him — claiming he was psychologically harmed from the experience, according to a report.

Crews, 49, of TV’s Everybody Hates Chris and B rooklyn Nine-Nine, says in his suit that William Morris Endeavor agent Adam Venit stared at him “like a rabid dog, sticking his tongue in and out of his mouth provocatively” at a Tinseltown party last year — then grabbed his genitals, TMZ said.

Crews, who already filed a police report on the incident, said he shouted to nearby comedian Adam Sandler, one of Venit’s clients, “Adam, come get your boy! He’s grabbing my nuts!” the report said.

Sandler later called Crews and asked him if he was OK, Crews said.

Crews’ agent works at the same agency as Venit. The actor said Venit eventually called him to apologise.

Venit was put on leave after Crews came forward with his story this year amid the slew of sexual harassment allegations sweeping Hollywood and beyond. Venit has since returned to work.

A man answering a phone listed to Venit on Tuesday said the agent did not want to comment on the suit.
