Was Rose McGowan Trying to Warn People About Harvey Weinstein?
The actress posted damning tweets back in 2016, alluding to an unnamed studio head who allegedly raped her.

In 2016, Rose McGowan made waves when she alleged that a studio head had raped her. Using the hashtag #WhyWomenDontReport, she said she never reported the alleged crime because she was told that she could never win such a case: “A (female) criminal attorney said because I’d done a sex scene in a film I would never win against the studio head,” she wrote. McGowan added that her ex-partner sold the film she was working on to her alleged rapist’s company, and that the man’s behavior was “an open secret in Hollywood/Media.”

“They shamed me while adulating my rapist,” she wrote.

In the wake of the recent revelations about Harvey Weinstein, the Oscar-winning power producer who has been accused of sexually harassing women for years, the question of whom McGowan was alluding to in her 2016 tweets has grown more pressing. The bombshell New York Times piece Thursday reported that Weinstein paid out settlements to numerous women over the years, McGowan among them. Per the Times, Weinstein paid the then-23-year-old $100,000 in 1997, after “an episode in a hotel room during the Sundance Film Festival.” In the late aughts, McGowan was reportedly in a relationship with Robert Rodriguez, who directed her in 2007’s Grindhouse. The movie was distributed by Dimension Films, an independent label owned by the Weinstein Company.
