Gwyneth Paltrow's name emerged early in the Harvey Weinstein sc--dal, as she courageously shared her own experience of his attempted abuse.
However, the book 'She Said' has revealed that she was not only a victim but also a tool that Weinstein used to exploit others.
In her initial disclosure, Gwyneth Paltrow exposed Harvey Weinstein's predatory behavior, and 'She Said,' authored by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, corroborates her account while shedding light on her role as a lure for other victims.
Kantor and Twohey, renowned journalists from 'The New York Times,' were instrumental in unveiling the alleged s- misconduct by the Miramax mogul.
During her time working on the film 'Emma,' Paltrow disclosed that Harvey Weinstein made unwelcome advances toward her. She confided in her then-partner, Brad Pitt, who confronted Weinstein, warning him to keep his hands off her.
In the epilogue of 'She Said,' the authors recount a group conversation with some of the victims, including Paltrow. She reveals that, after sharing her story, some women reached out to her, stating that Weinstein was using her as a symbol of success, implying that compliance with his advances was the reason for her successful acting career.
Paltrow candidly expresses in the conversation, "Feeling like an unwitting instrument in assault is profoundly challenging. It's almost paradoxical, but it induces a sense of guilt, even though it's entirely irrational."
