Actress Jessica Barth: Harvey Weinstein Asked Me to Give Him a Naked Massage
EXCERPT:
CAMEROTA: "Tell us about your story. I know that in 2011 you met Harvey Weinstein at a Golden Globes party, he invited you to a business meeting at the peninsula hotel, then what happened?"
BARTH: "Yes, he invited me to a business meeting that we were supposed to talk about cereer stuff and we were supposed meet in the lobby. And when I got there he wasn't there. And so he called me and asked me to come to his room, which I was very hesitant about and I was texting my sister that he wanted me to come to his room and I didn’t know what to do. And she -- she suggested that if I was going to go to his room that I text her as soon as I get there to let her know how it was going. So I did. And when -- when I got to his room he was very casual. I was dressed up professionally and he was very casual; unbuttoned shirt, baggy pants. The room had champagne and sushi, and we sat on the patio, and at first he started talking about career stuff, and how he wanted to fly me to New York and give me a role in Sarah Jessica Parker’s new film. He alternated between that and asking me to give him a naked massage in the bed. So I told him that was not going to happen. I asked him if he was married because I looked up that information before I agreed to the meeting jut because I was hesitant to have a meeting at the hotel so I wanted to see if he was married, and it turned out he was and he, in fact, just had a baby as well, so that comforted me a little bit. He told me he had an open relationship with his wife and I told him that I didn’t. And so it fluctuated between, you know, back and forth with that."
