Lisa Rinna To Harry Hamlin: 'You Went To The Casting Couch!' (VIDEO)

First Posted: 10/13/10 06:13 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:00 PM ET

Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna open up to The Huffington Post about both their experiences with the Hollywood casting couch, Lisa's lip reduction surgery and the competition to see who makes it to the top of the best-seller list.

When asked about the casting couch, Hamlin said, "Before the advent of sexual harassment in the workplace, men were just as susceptible to casting couch entreaties as women."

Rinna replied, "He went to the casting couch," leading Hamlin to get a little defensive ("I'm not gonna talk about that!" he insisted.)

The actors, who celebrate thirteen years of marriage together, both have books out at the same time as well as a brand new TV show called 'Harry Loves Lisa.'

Lisa reveals in her book 'Starlit' that she once lost a major television role because she refused to "bend over" for sex with a producer in his office.

Hamlin does a LOT of theater and quite talented actually. Fram what Ive seen Lisa Rinna is very perky and witty. Perfect talent for a talkshow. Oh, but you werent really talking from any knowledge of either of them were you? Amazes me the number of people so in to saying horrible things about people. Yeh some earn it, but these two? Really?

I know it's going to sound stupid, but when Harry speaks it sounds as if that small part of the interview were played in "slow-mo"; WTF?!

Didn´t Harry Hamlin play a gay character decades ago in "Making Love"? Maybe that explains his unwillingness to discuss his "casting couch" experiences (he was one cute hunk of meat in his day)....

I admire Lisa and Harry. They are a cute couple.

Boring....why would they think anyone is interested in this drivel.

Sorry, I cop to being petty. But since I know these two, who marinate in themselves, will be reading these posts ("Enough about me, what do YOU think about me?") I'd just like to add my nomination for them as the C-Lists most nauseating couple around. Thank you.

Am I the only one who wonders what famous actors actually did bend over? Maybe it's just me.....

Wonders if the job would have been hers had she played it straight? :)

I can definitely commend Lisa for refusing to "bend over" and let someone take advantage of her. Whether it's acting, or any other profession, all people deserve respect in the workplace. & Congrats to her on her surgery. Looking better.
