Robert De Niro exploded during his second day on the witness stand Tuesday in a lawsuit brought by his former assistant.

Actor Robert De Niro shouted"Shame on you!" as he testified Tuesday in a New York courtroom, directing the comments toward his former executive assistant and vice president who is seeking millions of dollars after accusing her former boss of being abusive.

The jury is also considering evidence pertaining to a lawsuit De Niro filed against Robinson in which he claimed that she stole things from him, including 5 million points that could be used for airline flights. De Niro is seeking the return of three years of Robinson's salary. And the claim that he told Robinson he preferred that she scratch his back rather than using a back scratching device drew another angry rebuke from De Niro, who said it might have happened once or twice but"never was with disrespect or lewdness."Quickly, he blurted an apology in a quieter voice, as he glanced toward Judge Lewis J. Liman.

He insisted that he treated Robinson well even after he bought a five-bedroom Manhattan townhouse and let Robinson oversee some of the preparations so he could move there with Chen.
