TELLY comic Leigh Francis says playing raunchy alter-ego Keith Lemon makes him a target for sexual harassment.
The star, 47, revealed he regularly gets groped by leery fans on nights out.
Leigh says he assumes they think it’s OK to touch him because of his cheeky on-screen persona – but he hates it.
He told the Daily Star Sunday: “I get people manhandling me. I think if I was a lady there would be a lot of people in trouble.”
He explained: “I went to see Matt Goss play at a gig and there were a lot of ladies with hands on me.
“I don’t like it when they try to put their fingers in my bum.
