The UK Has Charged Harvey Weinstein With 2 Counts Of Sexual Assault As He Tries To Sue Chrysler For His Back Problems
Bi-coastal jailbird Harvey Weinstein just added an international destination to his bucket list of places to wither away and die in. CNN reports that the United Kingdom has charged Harvey with 2 counts of indecent assault that allegedly took place in London back in 1996. And wouldn’t you know it, Harvey’s back is acting up again. The New York Post reports that Harvey has filed a $5 million lawsuit against Chrysler, the maker of the Jeep he drove into a tree back in August of 2019. $5 million should go a long way to help fortify Harvey’s quickly dwindling war chest. If he wins, receives the full sum, and, given the full docket his lawyers already have, when the case might be settled and depending on the exchange rate at that time, Harvey could be sitting pretty with enough money on his books for 2 or 3 boxes of Milk Duds. Adjusted for inflation of course. So maybe one gently sat upon dud. Aww, he should name it Harvey Jr. Mint!
Rebel Wilson Talked About A Co-Star Who Sexually Harassed Her And Threatened To Destroy Her Career Pre-#MeToo
Rebel Wilson has a new movie on Netflix, which is why she’s been doing so much press lately (see: headlines about her love life, recent 80-pound weight loss, self worth, etc.). This week 42-year-old Rebel is on the cover of People, and in the interview, she talks about getting sexually harassed by a co-star several years ago, before the #MeToo movement. She has spoken about this incident before, back in 2017. According to Rebel, the perpetrator called her into a room on set, asked her to put her finger up his ass, and then pulled down his pants. This was all in front of the co-star’s buddies, who were filming it on their phones. Rebel says that, afterward, the co-star threatened to destroy her career.
Kevin Spacey Will Be Starring In A Hungarian-Mongolian Production About Genghis Khan’s Grandson
Kevin Spacey’s slow creep (emphasis on creep) back to the top of the A-list from the top of the other A-list (assholes to avoid), continues apace. Thankfully, Kevin has a long way yet to creep, and this time, he’s creepy-crawling all the way from Mongolia by way of Hungary. Deadline reports that Kevin has been cast in his biggest post-#me-too movie to date. He’ll be starring in a historical drama 1242 – Gateway to the West playing an Italian Cardinal sent by The Pope to Hungary as they are defending a fort against the Mongolian army led by Genghis Khan’s grandson. It’s a Hungarian-Mongolian production co-starring Julia Roberts’ brother Eric Roberts, and Christopher Lambert.
Mario Batali’s Indecent Assault And Battery Trial Has Ended With His Acquittal
Mario Batali made a career off his hands (cooking), but a few years ago his career took a nosedive after it was alleged those same hands had been busy doing something else (creeping). At the height of the 2017 #MeToo revelations, the foodie world was rocked by an exposé by Eater, which published the accounts of several women who accused fleece zipper vests’ favorite customer of varying degrees of misconduct, harassment, and assault. According to other notable TV chefs, like the late Anthony Bourdain and Tom Colicchio, the allegations were a long time coming, and there were some people in the industry who would be more shocked to find basil in a jar of marinara than were surprised to hear about Mario’s allegations. It was starting to look like Mario’s goose was cooked. But in a twist worthy of those fucked up surprise baskets on Chopped, Mario has apparently made like a whisk in a bowl of egg whites and beaten this thing.
Chris Noth Has Returned To Instagram After A Brief Hiatus
Or maybe I should say he was on a “hide-atus,” since it’s not exactly like he was taking a social media break just to reset his batteries and come back with a fresh outlook on life. Chris Noth was metaphorically hiding out after being accused of sexual assault. He pulled back from the spotlight, which is usually a smart thing to do if one finds themselves in the kind of situation that involves a potential police investigation. But Chris is done hiding. Much like that famous groundhog, Chris Noth decided to poke his head out of his hidey-hole and remind everyone that he’s still around. Except instead of predicting the arrival of spring, his return signals that it’s probably time for his publicist to start stocking up on headache pills again.
Prince Andrew Has Settled His Lawsuit With Virginia Giuffre
Well well whhhhhhhell, if it isn’t the man who swore he was going to take these sexual assault allegations straight to trial, and swear on a stack of bibles that he is the most not-guilty man who has ever been accused of heinous sex crimes. NBC News reports that a filing was made earlier today which states that it looks like Prince Andrew has gone ahead and bought his freedom in the form of a check made out of Virginia Giuffre, one of the many sex trafficking victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who has accused Prince Andrew of having sex with her three times when she was allegedly seventeen years old and was suing Prince Andrew of as much. Honestly, the most shocking part of this story is that Andrew was able to find enough money between the cushions in his couch.
