Looks like there’s no end for the shocking revelations coming up against former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. The former industry mogul was sacked from the company he co-founded last week, The Weinstein Company, after many leading Hollywood actresses came forward to reveal how they were molested and raped by him.
And now, Indian actress Aishwarya Rai’s name has too popped up in the equation as her Hollywood manager, Simone Sheffield, revealed in a report how Harvey Weinstein had desired to spend some alone time with the former Miss World. He was quoted as saying:
“I used to manage Indian actress Aishwarya Rai. While dealing with Harvey I found it comical how hard he tried to get Aishwarya alone. But he was a pig… looked and acted like a big bully pig. He asked me to leave the meeting numerous times and I politely declined. When we were leaving his office, he cornered me and said, ‘What do I have to do to get her alone?’ I told him to kiss my black ass. When Ash and I returned to our hotel, I sent Harvey a steel pig trough filled with DIET COKE as a thank you gift for the meeting. Yes, we did do business and yes, he eventually threatened me. Told me I’d never work in this business, blah blah blah…what I said to him, I can’t print. But you can be sure, I never gave him the opportunity to even breathe on my client.
Fox News. Weinstein. The President. Such abuses have gone on way before these creeps and will sadly continue until women feel empowered and protected enough to speak out.
They say there’s strength in numbers…perhaps. BUT it takes only one brave soul to take the first stand. With social media as your platform, that one brave soul will lead an army, in no time.
Brava Ladies….don’t hold back – THE TRUTH. Protect one another. Support one another. Love one another.”
