If you’re like me and you don’t know who Brett Ratner is, he’s a big time Hollywood producer who is now being accused of sexual harassment, even assault by six different women today.
Just look here to see the major movies he’s directed and produced, as well as major TV shows as well.
Here’s the lowdown on the accusations against him via Page Six:
Natasha Henstridge:
Olivia Munn and Natasha Henstridge are among six actresses who have accused director Brett Ratner of sexual harassment or misconduct in a report from the Los Angeles Times published Wednesday.
Henstridge, 43, who appeared in “Species” (1995), described her encounter as a then-19-year-old model, who ended up falling asleep on Ratner’s couch in his New York apartment while watching a movie with friends. When she awoke, Ratner, 48, then in his early 20s, allegedly blocked her exit.
“He strong-armed me in a real way. He physically forced himself on me,” Henstridge explained, adding he allegedly forced her to perform oral sex. “At some point, I gave in and he did his thing.”
Olivia Munn:
While Munn, 37, previously described Ratner’s behavior in her 2010 collection of essays, “Suck It, Wonder Woman!: The Misadventures of a Hollywood Geek,” noting how he had masturbated in front of her on a film set in 2004, the “X-Men: The Last Stand” star later confirmed he was the director described in the book.
Munn told the Times she ran into Ratner the same year her book debuted at an agency party, where she claimed he bragged about ejaculating on magazine covers featuring her photos.
Though Ratner “vehemently disputes” Munn’s accusations through his lawyer, the “Newsroom” actress said she has “made specific, conscientious choices not to work with Brett Ratner.”
Ratner also claimed he “banged” Munn, but backtracked during a 2011 appearance on “Howard Stern.”
While Singer alleges Munn and Ratner had “an intimate relationship,” Munn has called Singer’s claim “a complete lie.”
“I shouldn’t have to be completely broken, battered, and devalued in order to prove that he crossed a line,” she told the LA Times.
Jaime Ray Newman:
“The Punisher” star Jaime Ray Newman also detailed Ratner’s vulgar behavior on an Air Canada flight in 2005.
“He was graphically describing giving me oral sex and how he was addicted to it,” Newman said, revealing Ratner had asked his assistant to switch seats before takeoff so he could sit next to her. The “Tower Heist” director also allegedly showed Newman nude photos of his then-girlfriend.
Ratner maintains the incident never took place, with Singer dubbing Newman’s account a “ridiculous claim.”
Sure, Ratner didn’t do nuthin. These women must’ve gotten together and decided to take him down because he’s such an awesome director or something. LOL!
You know the old saying, where there’s smoke there’s lots of sexual harassment!
There are three more women making claims against him. You can read their stories here.
Since last week hundreds of women have made sexual harassment claims against filmmaker James Toback.
Another man is accusing Kevin Spacey of grabbing his crotch.
And now police are investigating both Toback and Weinstein.
Sheesh! The cesspool of Hollywood for all to see.
