In a video that went viral earlier this week, model and sometimes actress Heather Nichols was on the receiving end of some unusual interview behavior by UFC's Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. Basically, he "dry-humped" her, on camera in the middle of the interview.

Watching the video, while Heather Nichols was making some small talk about a romantic comedy starring you and me, Jackson got started. That probably wasn't a good sidebar for Nichols to bring up, as he asked her, in terms of the comedy, but in reality, in terms of the humping, "Am I in?" to which she replied, "You're in."

Interviewed by SI, Heather Nichols discussed how awkward the moment was:

At first I was just shocked when he grabbed me, and all I could think was, "Oh my gosh, what is he doing?!" Then I tried to play along a little bit because I knew he was trying to be funny, but after about the first 5-10 seconds, it was just plain awkward. I kept thinking, "What should I do? Knee him? Keep going?" So I decided to keep asking questions, assuming he would stop if I did that. So I asked another question, and he kept going. I asked ANOTHER question, and he kept going. At this point I was just freaking out, but still trying to be a professional and ask all the questions I was assigned to ask, and this has been interpreted by some viewers as me liking it and egging him on. This was definitely not the case. I was hired to do a job, which was to interview Rampage, so I decided to put up with his shenanigans and finish the interview.

Unfortunately, Heather Nichols missed the prior shenanigans by Rampage, where he pulled similar behavior with a Japanese reporter. Personally, this guy needs the kneeing she mentioned, or perhaps a slap across the face.
