Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein’s case is getting uglier with previous victims being called forward. And the latest one is reportedly a former actress of “Dirty Dancing 2,” someone who was shamed by the former film producer and sex offender.
Referred only by the court as “Ashley M,” the actress shared her forgettable ordeal that happened in 2023. She claims that Weinstein masturbated on her face even as one of Weinstein’s assistants was waiting outside a hotel room, the Post reported.
The woman was allegedly among the cast of dancers that Weinstein picked out at the time while they were filming in Puerto Rico. The 70-year-old allegedly demanded that Ashley M give him a naked massage.
The woman, a trained ballerina, was only 22 years old at the time. Weinstein allegedly approached her as they were about to film the ballroom scene. Weinstein took her outside and had a private conversation.
“He said it would just be a naked massage … and not to worry about it,” Ashley M. said. “He said, ‘Look at Gwyneth Paltrow and what it did for her career.'”
She tried to rebuff the advances and at one point thought she was able to avoid Weinstein. But to her surprise after returning from dinner, Weinstein was waiting for her together with his assistant, Bonnie Hung.
At that point, the sex offender allegedly became aggressive and told Ashley M to get into a limousine with Hung. The assistant assured her that they were just going to talk about projects.
“I was worried but yet I felt comforted that Bonnie was there … but I was wondering what was going on,” she said.
When the three of them went into the hotel, the girl was led into a private room. Weinstein and Ashley M went into the room with Hung waiting outside the door, the Associated Press reported.
Inside, Weinstein allegedly had his way with the girl, stripping her of her clothes and underwear. There was allegedly no sex that happened other than Weinstein masturbating and ejaculating on her that got on her face and breasts.
After cleaning herself up, she called her mother and fiancé but was too ashamed to tell them about what happened. Ashley M never told anyone about the harrowing ordeal.
Weinstein is facing a 23-year prison sentence after he was convicted in New York. Ashley M is set to continue with her testimony on Friday, Oct. 28.
