‘He asked us to kiss’
Cara joins perv pile-on
Model-actress Cara Delevingne claims Harvey Weinstein tried to pressure her into playing out one of his bedroom fantasies when he lured her to a hotel suite to talk about a movie role, then asked her to make out with another woman and tried to plant a slobbering kiss on her.
The 25-year-old “Suicide Squad” star (pictured) on Wednesday joined a long list of actresses accusing Weinstein of sex harassment, writing a lengthy Instagram post that detailed his come-ons and the guilt she has felt since.
“I was so hesitant about speaking out,” she wrote. “I didn’t want to hurt his family. I felt guilty as if I did something wrong. I was also terrified that this sort of thing had happened to so many women I know but no one had said anything because of fear.”
Delevingne — describing a situation similar to other accus-accusers’ — said the encounter began whenhen Weinstein got her to his hotel room after theyy discussed a film with an unidentified director.
“The director left the meeting and Harvey asked me to stay and chat with him,” she wrote, without saying where or when the incident happened.. “As soon as we were alone, he began to brag about all the actresses hee had slept ... andd spoke about other inappropriate things off a sexual nature.”
She said she initially declined an invitation to his room, but relented when his assistant said she couldn’t get Delevingne a car and “I should go to his room.” “When I arrived I was relieved to find another woman in his room and thought immediately I was safe,” Delevingne wrote. “He asked us to kiss and she began some sort of advances upon his direction.” Delevingne recalled nervously breaking into song to deflect the tension before asking to leave — but when Weinstein walked her to the door, he “stood in front of it and tried to kiss me on the lips.” The British-born beauty said she eventually landed the movie role — without identifying the film — but has felt “guilty” ever since. “I felt like I didn’t deserve the part,” said Delevingne, who starred in The Weinstein Company-distributed “Tulip Fever.” Delevingne, who is bisexual, also recounted a “very odd and uncomfortable” phone call from Weinstein abouabout her sexuality. The studio exec wanted to know if she had slept with any of the women with whom she had been spotted in public. Delevingne walked in a 2013 show for Marchesa, the label cofounded by Weinstein’s now-estranged wife, Georgina Chapman. Also on Wednesday, French actress Léa Seydoux accused Weinstein of once lunging at her in his hotel room. “We were talking on the sofa when he suddenly jumped on me and tried to kiss me,” she wrote in aw firstperson piece for The Guardian. “I had to defend myself. He’s big and fat, so I had to be forceful to resist him. “I left his room thoroughly disgusted.”
