John Lasseter,demi lovato sex video chief architect of Disney's Pixar Animation Studios and the writer and director of Toy Storyand countless other modern animated classics, is taking a six-month leave of absence over undisclosed "missteps" with employees, according to a memo circulated Tuesday and obtained by Mashable.

Lasseter's statement to employees did not detail any misconduct, saying only that "It’s been brought to my attention that I have made some of you feel disrespected or uncomfortable" and adding: "I especially want to apologize to anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of an unwanted hug or any other gesture they felt crossed the line."

Disney released its own statement a short while later:

We are committed to maintaining an environment in which all employees are respected and empowered to do their best work. We appreciate John’s candor and sincere apology and fully support his sabbatical.

Hours later, multiple reports surfaced alleging Lasseter's inappropriate behavior through the years, including unwanted touching, hugging and kissing of female employees and comments about their physical appearance. THRquoted people who witnessed Lasseter putting his hands on women's knees and thighs; Varietydescribed a longstanding "whisper network" of women who warned one another about his proclivities; and Vanity Fair described a 2012 crisis conference call at Disney over Lasseter's behavior at a premiere the night before.

Lasseter's name had been on the wind in recent weeks as possibly the next to fall in a cascade of sexual misconduct allegations have been reported at all levels of the entertainment industry. He is easily among the most powerful and high-profile figures whose behavior has been publicly outed since the Harvey Weinstein story broke, as he commanded all aspects of both Pixar and the equally successful Walt Disney Animation Studios.

However, Lasseter's memo suggests he will return to his post after a six-month period, during which he said he plans to "start taking better care of myself, to recharge and be inspired, and ultimately return with the insight and perspective I need to be the leader you deserve."

The memo in full:

I have always wanted our animation studios to be places where creators can explore their vision with the support and collaboration of other gifted animators and storytellers. This kind of creative culture takes constant vigilance to maintain. It’s built on trust and respect, and it becomes fragile if any members of the team don’t feel valued. As a leader, it’s my responsibility to ensure that doesn’t happen; and I now believe I have been falling short in this regard.

I’ve recently had a number of difficult conversations that have been very painful for me. It’s never easy to face your missteps, but it’s the only way to learn from them. As a result, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to the leader I am today compared to the mentor, advocate and champion I want to be. It’s been brought to my attention that I have made some of you feel disrespected or uncomfortable. That was never my intent. Collectively, you mean the world to me, and I deeply apologize if I have let you down. I especially want to apologize to anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of an unwanted hug or any other gesture they felt crossed the line in any way, shape, or form. No matter how benign my intent, everyone has the right to set their own boundaries and have them respected.

In my conversations with Disney, we are united in our commitment to always treat any concerns you have with the seriousness they deserve, and to address them in an appropriate manner. We also share a desire to reinforce the vibrant, respectful culture that has been the foundation of our studios’ success since the beginning. And we agree the first step in that direction is for me to take some time away to reflect on how to move forward from here. As hard as it is for me to step away from a job I am so passionate about and a team I hold in the highest regard, not just as artists but as people, I know it’s the best thing for all of us right now. My hope is that a six-month sabbatical will give me the opportunity to start taking better care of myself, to recharge and be inspired, and ultimately return with the insight and perspective I need to be the leader you deserve.

I’m immensely proud of this team, and I know you will continue to wow the world in my absence. I wish you all a wonderful holiday season and look forward to working together again in the new year.

John
