#MeToo: An Open Letter to Charlie Walk

You promised me the world in my career. You told me I would be one of the top 30 music executives under 30. It's what I wanted. Cloaked in power, you knew how to get me right where you wanted me. Under your control. Playing your sick games.

Can you believe Charlie "Four Finger" Walk is now part of the movement

Walk took her to backstage meet-and-greets, she writes, and introduced her to moguls like former Columbia Records head Donnie Ienner, YouTube music chief Lyor Cohen, and hip-hop impresario Russell Simmons, as well as superstars like Prince.

For a year I shuddered at the idea of being called into your office, where you would stealthily close the door and make lewd comments about my body and share your fantasies of having sex with me. I was 27,” she wrote. “No previous experience had taught me what to do in such a situation. So I laughed it off, gently reminded you that you were married with children, and tried to change the subject. But you were relentless.

You did it so that you could put your hand on my thigh under the table, every time inching it closer and closer to my sacred place,” writes Coopersmith. “You did it so you could lean over and whisper disgusting things into my ear and I had to smile so that no one suspected anything. On multiple occasions your wife was sitting right across from us. … And then there was that event at your swank pad when you actually cornered me and pushed me into your bedroom and onto your bed. The bed you shared with your wife… your wife who was in the room next door. You being drunk and me being 6 inches taller was my saving grace.”

I walked away from the world of entertainment 8 years ago and never looked back.

I don’t wish ill for you, Charlie Walk,” she writes. “Only the possibility of personal awakening, accountability and transformation so that you can use your power for good. I forgive you, Charlie Walk. I hope you can forgive yourself.”

"The truth is Charlie Walk there will always be scumbags like you."

How do people explain half talented pop stars? Of course the pay for play is a two way street. #metooism explains as many poor choices as it does assaults

These open letters are so weird. She's a really shitty writer too. All of her adjectives and stuff are weird.

Bolding everything you post kind of defeats the purpose of bolding. Don't you think?

Take it easy on her, she was only 27. She didn’t know how to handle it.

Every vindictive twat is going to "out" every guy they ever had a problem with, to get revenge and attention with a possible career opportunity.
