  1. I just assume unless they had powerful parents, they’ve all been molested and harassed in the entertainment industry. Women and the men. And sometimes the powerful parents didn’t matter at all.

  2. This doesn’t surprise me at all. I imagine this is a shared experience among celebrities who become “sex symbols”.

  3. Sadly, many others probably didn’t speak out for the same reason. Look at what happened to Mira Sorvino, Naomi Judd & Annabella Sciorra.

  4. Horrible industry. Like modelling.

    My daughters both wanted to try modelling for fun while they were at school / uni. I asked them not to and explained why it made me nervous. I’m so grateful they listened. (Neither feels they missed out on anything significant btw. No resentment as it was their decision)

  6. Reminds me of a 40s era detective film Ben Afleck was in, some girl wanting to be an actress is murdered and he says in a cut away voice over…

    ***” …She went looking for Hollywood… But all she found was Los Angeles… “***

  7. At least name the perpetrators goofy ass bitch clickbait.

  9. Harassment is crazy normalized in several different industries, and the sexual harassment is treated similar to hazing in those industries, as in, paying your lumps.

  12. Denise was misunderstood. She didn’t want to run the family business so she networked into acting.

    She was able to put up with Charlie Sheen- the lady is a Saint.

  13. Bill Cosby and Weinstein gives the impression abuse is the norm not the exception. So many others being convicted too.

  17. Not surprised she was a complete smoke show when younger, and still beautiful, but men in power are pigs and usually are criminal.

  18. I don’t know any females who haven’t been sexually harassed, sadly. It used to be the norm. Not that most men sexually harassed women, but most women were unfortunate to encounter at least one who did.

  20. Y’all have to start letting shit be known when it happens instead of being silent. Silence does nothing.
