In a PAPER magazine profile, James says he's still coping with the aftermath and describes Tati's remarks about his alleged sexual advances "disgusting."
"I'm not mentally in a place where I want to be," he admits. "What's even harder to swallow is that it's been six months since all the drama happened. I thought by this time I'd be completely good—back to normal, if you will—and that's not the case."
"What that statement implies is that gay men are all predatory, which is disgusting, not true and very dangerous to put out there. "The whole situation was scary for the LGBTQ+ community and paints a really bad picture of gay men," James explains.
