Robert De Niro's alleged voicemail to Graham Chase Robinson Play Video Robert De Niro routinely subjected his longtime employee to creepy and abusive behavior, including leaving her voicemails threatening youre fing history and calling her a bitch and a brat, an explosive new lawsuit charges.
Graham Chase Robinson says for years she was the victim of gratuitous unwanted physical contact from the Oscar winner, who also hurled sexually-charged comments to her when she worked at his production company, Canal Productions Inc.
Robinsons allegations against the Taxi Driver star are levied in a lawsuit filed Thursday in Manhattan federal court for gender discrimination and wage violations.
She said she began working for Canal Productions in 2008 as an executive assistant and forced to resign in April after rising to the position of vice president of production and finance.
Robert De Niro is someone who has clung to old mores. He does not accept the idea that men should treat women as equals, the suit says. He does not care that gender discrimination in the workplace violates the law. Ms. Robinson is a casualty of this attitude.

He’s not looking very well these days.
A truly sick film, suited him fine.
(Sorta like when Hanoi Jane played a prostitute in Klute, forgettable acting but somehow quite believable as a whore.)
Well, if you want to get deep into psychology and metaphysics... do we ever really know anyone? Under extreme pressure, people behave in extreme ways.
Actors are certainly unusual people, or they wouldn’t be actors. But I don’t think it is accurate to paint them all with an extremely broad brush.
Hahaha!
Well played!
Neener, neener, Bobby
I have ALWAYS considered De Niro creepy, ALWAYS, no matter how much Hollyweired loved him. So color me not surprised.
I believe it. I use to drive a Yellow cab in NYC years ago and picked up a woman one day who told me she worked for DeNiro. I think she was a nanny or maid, and she told me the same thing, he was an abusive sc*mbag and a disgusting pig.
I hope he goes down HARD!
Maybe this will help him clean up his filthy mouth.
He used to be one of my favorite actors but now I refuse to watch anything he is in, even old reruns.

It's not unusual for a guy to specialize in something which ties him down to a particular employer, who may find the guy's specialized expertise valuable for a while and pay him well.
Then the employer goes bust, or decides to outsource the specialized area to India, or for whatever reason the guy's specialized job evaporates, and there's not many other potential employers who need that expertise. In that case the guy is expected to not whine, and do as best he can getting something else, probably at a lower pay level.
It's called life.
Fair enough.... Ill concede the point and say a majority
#42 Hes not looking very well these days.
He is looking like an Italian Troll.
Read his Wikipedia page. He's only about 1/4 Italian. He's mostly Irish.
