J-Law Responds To Allegations Harvey Weinstein Bragged About Sex With Her

jennifer lawrence harvey weinstein allegations bragged about sex with her

A lawsuit brought against predatory Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein claims that he bragged about having sex with Jennifer Lawrence while sexually assaulting another actress.

According to the sexual battery lawsuit, the actress, who has been identified only as Jane Doe, was in the bathroom at Weinstein’s hotel at the Sundance Film Festival in 2013 when he burst into the room. She claims that he masturbated in front of her and came on her skirt, despite her protests. This is alleged to be the first instance of what would be years of sexual harassment and assault.

At a later meeting at his office in the same year, the actress alleges that Weinstein pushed her to the ground and forcibly performed oral sex on her. When she protested, she says he told her he was going to help her career, saying:

I slept with Jennifer Lawrence and look where she is; she’s just won an Oscar.

It’s this statement that Lawrence has responded to, issuing a statement of her own denying that she ever had a sexual relationship with Weinstein.

She told Page 6 through a representative:

My heard breaks for all the women who were victimised by Harvey Weinstein. I have never had anything but a professional relationship with him. This is yet another example of the predatory tactics and lies that he engaged in to lure countless women.

Weinstein’s lawyers maintain his innocence, and are continuing to suggest that the countless women who have come forward about his behaviour are merely making things up. According to TMZ, Weinstein’s lawyers have issued the following response to Lawrence’s statement:

This lawsuit was filed and updated strategically with no notice given or any attempt to reach out to Mr. Weinstein’s attorneys for one reason; It was meant to embarrass Mr. Weinstein and garner unchecked media attention. There is absolutely no truth to the malicious claims made in this lawsuit, and we are reviewing our options with an eye on filing for an immediate dismissal.

Mr. Weinstein is embarrassed for Ms. Lawrence with whom he has only had a professional and respectful relationship, who has sadly been dragged into this ugly attempt at defamation. This filing further proves that anyone can say whatever they want in a lawsuit for maximum shock value, to defame and debase, without having to offer any facts or reality.
