So the list so far: Angelina Jolie Heather Graham Gwyneth Paltrow Asia Argento Rose McGowan Romola Garai Mira Sorvino Emma de Caunes Rosanna Arquette Jessica Barth Lauren Sivan Lisa Campbell Cara Delevigne Ashley Judd Lea Seydoux Louisette Geiss Katherine Kendall Judith Godreche Dawn Dunning Zoe Brock Ambra Battilana Gutierrez Add Kate Beckinsale to the list. She said he tried something when she was 17, and kept coming onto her for years despite her constantly saying no. Also she had a male producer friend who warned an actress about Harvey Weinstein, the actress told Weinstein (she was already sleeping with him), and Kate's producer friend was called and told he would never work for Miramax.

Terrible for all the victims, male and female, but I gotta say it's nice to see Hollywood getting its due after being pretentious, judgemental and hypocritical sychophants for so long. I love acting. I love movies. But f*** that community has got issues.

Basically any walk of life where people hold authority over others, or hold the keys to careers is open to abuse.

Even though he's being dealt with, the problem will continue to linger. Hopefully, though, this does something to start a fight against it.

And of course you have Corey Feldman who has been trying to raise the alarm about this for years.
Barbara Walters: "You're damaging an entire industry."
f*** you, Barb.

That Bryan Singer/young boys issue seemed to have gotten swept under the rug around the time of Apocalypae despite the rumors remaining rampant.

To be fair to Bryan Singer, that particular lawsuit was discredited and the accuser is now in jail on an unrelated fraud. I don't think that was the only issue related to him though.

Yeah, the accuser was likely making it up based on the rumors. The fact that there are rumors is still messed up with how often rumors have ended up as truth... but you can't prosecute someone because of rumors alone.

Yup there are always con artists who attempt to cash on tragedies by pretending to be victims. Nearly two years ago there were forest fires in Fort McMurray that the whole town had to be evacuated and many people lost their homes. Many were staying in Edmonton during the fires and lots of businesses were providing charity and special discounts to anyone from Fort Mac provide they provide proof they are from their (DL, electric Bill, etc) There was many reports of people throwing tantrums when they couldn't provide the ID to get special discounts with some saying I hope your establishment burns down. Anyone who just lost a home wouldn't be saying that to anyone even if they are getting screwed on a insurance payout. It's awful people would exploit a tragedy for personal gain because it just makes it harder for actual victims to speak out or take legal action.

The Bryan Singer rumors are very much a murky area because there's about as good a chance of them being made up by homophobic people trying to ruin him with the old "all homosexuals are really pedophiles" cliche (as Singer is openly gay) versus actually being true.

Feldman would do more if he'd name names though. I get that it must be difficult as hell, but being vague is just allowing things to continue.
He's free not to, but one can't have it both ways: can't speak as if you want to be an agent of change, and then defer when it's time to do it.

If you know but don't have proof or don't have a collective you're open to libel and slander. Like I'm actually amazed on the amount of A-Listers are now opening up against Weinstein. Shows how much power he had.

Shows how much power he had. Exactly. Seth MacFarlene knew, because Jessica Barth told him. That’s why he made that joke he did you’ve probably seen. It’s not his place to speak for her. So he fired an arrow across the bow.

That's fair, I'll concede I thought he alluded to some type of proof in the past.

The Terry Crews story shocked me. If he isn't safe, no one is.

It's shows just how corrupt and filled with debauchery Hollywood can be that a dudes like "i can cop a feel on Terry Crews".
