Yeah I’ve read a lot of articles mentioning the casting couch. Some actresses have mentioned it. During a roast of George Lucas, Carrie Fisher joked, “I hope I slept with you to get the job, because if not, who the hell was that guy?”

"Does it only count if you really have done it to loads and loads and loads of women? "


Is it rape or rape-rape?

Whoopee Goldberg wants to know, Emma Thompson.

Before everyone goes full Laz.... per Wikipedia:

Thompson has said of her religious views: "I'm an atheist ... I regard religion with fear and suspicion. It's not enough to say that I don't believe in God. I actually regard the system as distressing: I am offended by some of the things said in the Bible and the Qur'an and I refute them."[

She is politically liberal and a supporter of the Labour Party;

Thompson is also an activist for Palestinians, having been a member of the British-based ENOUGH! coalition that seeks to end the "Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip and West Bank."

Why no more names??

Weinstein wasn’t the only one. Every few hours, it seems, some other actor or actress confesses to guilt and remorse over “not saying something.” That they regret it, they should’ve stepped up, blah blah blah. Emma Watson stated how “endemic” the problem is in the business. Ok, then — WHO ELSE? All the regret in the world doesn’t do anybody any good at all.... except the person still withholding the names.

Let’s hear it.

C’mon! The trollops needing work in Hollywood are calling up the producers/directors who ‘harassed’ them in the past and lining up jobs, or else!
