Even The Wolf likely can't clean up Harvey Weinstein's pending troubles

Given that James Cameron was the director, I'd like to know who she reported this to, and why she didn't do more, if she was met with a blank stare.

Eliza Dushku is telling the truth.

I was her legal guardian and took seriously my need to have her in my sight at all times, which was often difficult to do. I was on the True Lies set for 3 weeks and reported Joel Kramer’s inappropriate sexual behavior towards 12-year-old Eliza to a person in authority. I was met with blank stares and had the sense that I wasn’t telling that person anything they didn’t already know.

Eliza Dushku’s ‘True Lies’ Legal Guardian Backs Actress’ Sexual Assault Claims, Calls Joel Kramer “Pedophile” – Update

 

Re: Ansari, I worked on a talk-show-ish pilot starring a comedian/friend in 2010. The friend is now a correspondent on Well-Known TV Show. Good-looking guy; a former pro athlete.

Anyway, this comedian friend was then dating a model-ish/actress-ish woman who originally hailed from somewhere in Eastern Europe. Ansari was repeatedly trying to get with her, sending frequent texts, etc., well after learning that she was dating my friend. Ansari didn't know my friend personally, but knew of him. This was about a year after Parks & Rec started, so Ansari was presumably feeling flush with early stardom.

I don't know how assertive Ansari was before he was famous, but I doubt that before that, he would have spent a lot of effort trying to steal the girlfriend of a much bigger and better-looking guy, and thinking (not without reason) that he had a legitimate shot and that even if unsuccessful, he probably wouldn't face serious repercussions.

 

This is probably a tangent that I shouldn't explore, but: In this scenario, if the girl left your friend for Ansari, I don't think your friend should have been mad at Ansari. The girl would have decided to leave him for someone else. It's on her. It's the same with cheating. Men, especially, are usually most mad at "the other guy," and I get that. But it's the wife (or husband) who cheated. The other person was just getting his or her rocks off.

I find it personally sketchy to pursue a taken person, and I don't think your story speaks super well of Ansari, but dogs are gonna dog.

 

Yes. That agent should have one job. Get their client the maximum in money and/or visibility.

 

Just to be clear, she didn't leave him for Ansari, and to the best of my knowledge completely rebuffed his advances (primarly texts, maybe some calls) and hadn't led him on in any way. So my friend was mostly mad at Ansari for his gall and for breaking the "bro code."

Though if she had left him for Ansari, I suspect he would have been pretty pissed at both of them, but more pissed at her, since he obviously understood the lure (and virtual cliche) of L.A. actors/comedians targeting aspiring model/actress types, especially from Eastern Europe. I do think my buddy generally subscribes to "dogs are gonna dog," though he'd still be unhappy with Ansari personally. But that's just my opinion, since obviously that's not how it went down.

It's a shame the pilot didn't air, too, because there were several digs at Ansari that would've seemed out-of-left field, but were so random and about a seemingly harmless guy that they still would have been funny (just for a different reason) to those who didn't know the legitimate bad blood.

 

Good lord, dude - you have some serious issues. Everything is a pissing match to you. ESPECIALLY if you can somehow tangentially align it to the guy who spends every day here defending to the hilt the shittiest, most unfit, low-rent president we've ever seen. It takes some mental gymnastics to do it, but you find a way.

AND you are a sniveling little bitch, who plays out his personal insecurities here on the hour, by the hour.

I enjoy the back and forth, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. I've been in a million board fights here, and watched another million on the sidelines. But for fuck's sake, seek some professional help. You are a fucking basket case.

 

I wasn’t being passive aggressive, I meant it. I have seen several men say “well that wasn’t that bad” then go back and read it again more closely.

It’s easy to miss because it veers quickly between confident date moves, creepy date moves and flat-out rejection of non-consent.

 

You missed my post where I said I am not spending one extra second defending or not defending the Aziz Ansaris of the world.

 

Hey dude, can you stop getting distracted? These boots won't lick themselves.

 

Someone sure has a case of the second thoughts.

 

Sincerely, I hope you find peace.

 

Okey dokey.
