Oh honey , how can you stand still being the showbizz ? Did you also have ugly and nasty producers coming on to you ? Oh honey, who hasn't. I always insist they sleep with me!
But seriously, I don't want to belittle these women but you wouldn't remain in this industry if it really bothered you. It's so competitive and if you don't play the game you don't work.

Wow at Asia Argento. This shit is even more twisted than I thought. And I 100% believe Weinstein ruined certain careers when women refused him. Angelina Jolie was lucky that she didn't have to work with him again to find success. Notice we didn't hear from certain actresses like Mira Sorvino again after she won an Oscar. Weinstein probably tried to plant items about her being difficult. I'm curious about Renee Zellwegers dealings with Weinstein because at one point he was championing her and kicking actresses off projects to get her on them. In the mid 2000s she had a bit of a drop. Church! He's so fucking fake.

I feel for Mira Sorvino because she was destined to be the big thing and then disappeared. Strangely enough, Mira & Ashley Judd did that Marilyn Monroe biopic where Ashley played Norma Jean the starlet and Mira played Marilyn - the persona...

The whole Waxman thing confuses me.... if Damon (and I'm guessing Crowe as well) had nothing to do with killing the story in 2004, then why was it killed? or, why exactly did Waxman namedrop Damon only to backtrack two days later? This baffles me too. Why even bring up Damon and Crowe if they didn't know? Why drag them through the mud only to endorse his account 2 days later? I guess it's technically correct - they did call but it wasn't with knowledge about Weinstein. Just media spinning it to make it seem like Damon and Crowe knew they were trying to kill a story about sexual assault? According to Damon, Waxman called him to apologize about it too. Either way, you'd think she'd come out with something more than a tweet to clarify. This seems too big to just brush off.

Either way, you'd think she'd come out with something more than a tweet to clarify. This seems too big to just brush off. From what I can tell, Damon and Crowe were asked by Weinstein to speak about their positive interactions with this Fabrizio guy to Waxman, and the story happened to be killed around that time. But the vagueness of the response made it seem like a tacit claim that Crowe and Damon strongarmed her into killing the story. It's incredibly easy to jump to conclusions based off of such details (or the lack thereof), and if Waxman supports Damon's claims, then yeah, she needs to clarify it.

I don't think Rose McGowan is lying. Affleck knew this was going on. Now I can believe Matt Damon's explanation about killing the Times story, but I don't think everyone's being truthful when they say they had no idea. I think in Hollywood that kind of behavior had been so normalized for so many decades that people turned a blind eye to it or brushed it off as "women sleeping with producers to get ahead, nothing new" because they were only concerned about their status.

Rose is not lying and it appears she is gonna call all of them out on it. Thete was an actress who looks similar to Rose that I bet crossed paths with Harvey. Can't remember her name though.

The story has been reported by other sources who have twisted it. This is the only mention that Waxman actually made to Damon in her own article about the article she had blocked in 2004: "After intense pressure from Weinstein, which included having Matt Damon and Russell Crowe call me directly to vouch for Lombardo and unknown discussions well above my head at the Times, the story was gutted." Her article says exactly what Damon has said and what she then endorsed. It is only the other sources who commented on Waxman's story that were irresponsible enough to twist her words into a stronger implication than she intended.

As I replied to Viced, Waxman's article about her own story getting crushed has barely any mention of Damon. All it references is this: "After intense pressure from Weinstein, which included having Matt Damon and Russell Crowe call me directly to vouch for Lombardo and unknown discussions well above my head at the Times, the story was gutted." Her story says exactly what Damon has now commented.

Not that it justifies anything, but i keep forgetting that Weinstein is actually married. Is there any word on how Chapman is handling this?

You mean the OTHER elephant in the room: The women who went along with it and used their sexuality to advance their careers. The culture of Harveys will never change until that is also addressed. The women who slept with Harvey to advance their careers didn't do other women any favors. They may feel that they've empowered themselves but they also need to think about the signals that is sending out to men like Harvey.

Did anyone hear Harvey on that tape an Italian model recorded of him pleading with her to go back to a room with him when she was saying no a million ways? My god, he sounded so pathetic.

I'm in the camp of "everyone is full of shit" right about now. I'm not saying everyone is a villain, but I do think that almost everyone is being somewhat disingenuous to some degree and trying to strike now that the iron is hot.
