In some ways, it can be understandable not to want to stick your neck out when it was uncertain whether he would still have influence in the industry. But there is no excuse when you then come out with a dry-ass generic statement or claim to have not heard a peep before.

Oh yes, it’s incredible how many world-famous stars are sullied by association now. But I’ll forever remember how many remained silent at first after the NYT article till the pressure got too big and they had to speak up especially after The New Yorker article.

^ Thank you! I’ve started posting about the topic in a different thread: It seems 30 Rock etc. used humour to reveal some truths.

Did you ever read this blind item from 2009? http://www.laineygossip.com/Casting-Couch-blind-item/15504 Apparently, Harvey threatened Lainey to keep quiet. That threesome thing is similar to this: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/10/us/gwyneth-paltrow-angelina-jolie-harvey-weinstein.html Did Harvey think he was being cute, three movies for a threesome? And what about Shannon Elizabeth? After American Pie, she signed a three-picture deal with Miramax…

Oh yes, I think Matt Damon and Ben Affleck among others will take a big hit… Absolutely, he had a whole system set up for maximum success. A true predator. He would lure his target to his hotel room e.g. under the guise of a meeting, would have a female executive or an assistant in the room to make the woman lower her guard down, then he’d dismiss the executive or the assistant so he would end up alone with the woman. Using female casting agents etc. to seem more trustworthy. This is the same guy who Matt Damon, Russell Crowe, and Harvey Weinstein allegedly defended to NYT, which killed the story they were working on: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0518441/

Yeah, I think there must have been a lot of antipathy towards women who were seen as using the casting couch to sleep their way to the top. Women like Meryl Streep and Judi Dench could afford to be dismissive towards other women like, “Well, I’m so talented, I don’t have to sleep with anyone for roles.” BUT not all women went along with it, they rejected his advances and told others. Hence, it was called Hollywood’s worst kept secret. So, these A-list celebrities who try to act brand new like they had never heard of any sexual harassment allegations are DIRTY.

30 Rock - Jenna Turned Down Harvey Weinstein There’s also another scene where Jenna says she slept with Harvey Weinstein. Yet all these celebrities want to act appalled like they had never heard of such things.

Cara on her experience with Harvey:

More evidence on how preposterous it is when big A-list stars like Streep and Clooney claim they had no idea:

Oh Lindsay… Back in 2014, she said about Lawrence, "She's so fake and I'm sorry I'm not going to fuck for roles." Rumour has it that Lindsay wanted to be one of Harvey’s girls but he wasn’t interested. And alledgedly, she is an escort now.

^ Thank you for the link to that other song! Crazy! I also wonder whether Jennifer Lawrence is afraid that if she reveals something about Weinstein, more nude pictures or worse will be leaked as retaliation.

^ There could also be something even more harrowing involving other players. So they’re trying to make him the sole guilty one because he was so blatant.

Why don’t you ever mention your mother? Could that explain some of your issues with women?

The Obamas on Harvey Weinstein:

The audio video posted on the article has subtitles One of the women in the article is Patricia Arquette’s (Oscar winner) sister:

By one of the women in The New Yorker article:

Some suspect his brother, Bob Weinstein, is involved in exposing him because he wanted Harvey out of the company. Harvey has also had less success in recent years. His movies didn’t turn profit and didn’t get award nominations like they used to. Easier to take him down. Some also speculate that he pissed off someone even more powerful than him or that he stopped paying off someone he should have ala Charlie Sheen.

Rose’s tweet:

@Cult Icon I hope you’ll never have children. You’re the type that if your daughter told you that she was raped by her boyfriend, you would say that she must have led boys on.

Now those who feigned complete ignorance like Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lawrence look even more suspicious. And that dummy Donna Karan spoke too soon, now there are A-list stars corroborating sexual harassment allegations. It is rumoured that Donna Karan and her husband are into shady practices themselves and that she is Amber Rose’s sponsor.
