Vanity: List of Hollywood Starlets Whose Careers Skyrocketed Due to Harvey Weinstein
Me | 10/9/2017 | Me

Posted on 10/09/2017 6:11:04 PM PDT by RooRoobird20

Rush was discussing the many Hollywood starlets who seemed to come out of nowhere, whose careers skyrocketed because of their "association" with sickening perv Harvey Weinstein. All of them were probably seriously sexually harassed but kept quiet because of their personal lust for fame and fortune. So in that sense, they enabled Weinstein's disgusting predatory behavior.

This is a starting list of names. Please add to the list if you know of others:

Amy Adams Gwyneth Paltrow Jennifer Lawrence Ashley Judd

I’m not defending this POS but it does take two to tango. Any one of these bimbos could have told him to take his multi million dollar part and stuff it. What’s the old joke? Oh, so you’d take a million dollars for the act? Now that we’ve determined what you are we are only negotiating the price.

It seems to me you are defending Weinstein.

I can now understand somewhat, the misdirected anger that many of these women express toward men in general.

Ashley Judd has not aged well. Don’t know if she tried plastic surgery yet. Saggy chin, perpetual frown like she was afraid to smile and get wrinkles. Botoxed eyebrows.

That’s what nasty does to you. Turns you ugly.

Saw this documentary a decade ago (no murder in this instance)

Girl 27 (2007)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0912586/

trailer

The reclusive Patricia Douglas comes out of hiding to discuss the 1937 MGM scandal, in which the powerful film studio tricked her and over 100 other underage girls into attending a stag party, where she was raped.

‘Girl 27’ recalls how MGM called shots in 1937
5:00 AM PDT 7/27/2007 by Martin A. Grove , AP

Studios wield tremendous power today, but it’s nothing compared to how powerful they were 70 years ago.

In 1937, for example, MGM was the biggest employer in Los Angeles County and, according to filmmaker David Stenn’s powerful new documentary “Girl 27,” the studio was able to engineer the biggest cover-up in Hollywood history. It’s a fascinating story about the brutal rape of Patricia Douglas, an underage chorus girl who along with more than a hundred other young dancers was tricked by the studio into attending a stag party the studio held as part of a convention to reward hundreds of its salesmen from across the country for doing such a great job...

... In the footage of Louis B. Mayer greeting the sales people as they arrived there’s a man standing next to him in a police uniform. That’s L.A. police chief James Davis. So here you have Louis B. Mayer exhorting these guys to ‘have a good time, anything you want’ and he has the presence and, therefore, the endorsement of the Los Angeles Police Department’s chief right behind him.”...

... They protected the people within the studio and, in turn, the studio demanded and received complete loyalty. When I was doing the Jean Harlow book I was contacting a lot of people. I did several hundred interviews and occasionally you’d come across someone and you’d ask them a question and they would say, ‘Well, I would love to talk about that, but I don’t think Mr. Mayer would approve.’ And you would say to them, ‘Well, Mr. Mayer died in 1957 and that was (more than) 35 years ago.’ And they would say, ‘I’m sorry.’”

Go look up Miramax’s films, people!

Why do you say that? Are you inferring that these actresses worked for Miramax before going to to the Weinstein company? Apparently you aren't aware that Miramax was founded in 1979 by Bob and Harvey Weinstein, and was a leading independent film motion picture distribution and production company.

Ashley has already carved her face up several times, and I think she actually now looks older than her 47 years.

Chronic mental illness and perpetual anger are taking their toll on her looks.

I have never before in my life heard of Amy Adams. Yet, according to Wikipedia she is one of the highest paid actors in the world.

This is why I don’t feel sorry for this low rent sluts.

If they had an ounce of courage or character they would have told that fat gross pig NO and filed a lawsuit or went to another company for work. If you have to do that to get a job acting maybe go to school and do something else with your life and do small community theater on the side as a hobby. Acting is not all about big movies and Hollywood. These hoes wanted to be famous, that’s all.

Judd is/was a horrible actress. Blah.

Maybe they thought the trade off was worth it.
