Actor Penn Badgley is now retracting his statement about being touched inappropriately. In a statement to People he says, "The point of my comment was not to confess a personal trauma. I was speaking about the way emotional and physical boundaries are violated for someone in the public eye, who is seen as an object of desire." CNN reports the actor's original comments in question were published in a profile by The Daily Beast, in which he said he had been "molested" by "many people in the moment."
