Female Comic Says Show Will Go on After Brutal Attack in Northwest D.C.
A group of men beat a female comedian on a D.C. street just days before she's set to take the stage and she says the show will go on.
Paris Sashay, 23, was brutally beaten by several men late last Saturday night after they called out to her and friends and she rejected their advances, she told News4
The comic was walking from Eden, on I Street NW to a car parked on L Street NW when a group of men began harassing the group of women. Their behavior escalated and then became violent, Sashay said.
She blacked out and woke up in a hospital with a broken nose and chipped teeth, her face covered in bruises.
"Guys make it where you don't have a right to say no anymore. But as a woman, you should be able to say no," Sashay said. "Just say no. You're just not interested."
