Salma Hayek's confession: Weinstein screamed at me "I'm not paying you to be ugly"
Actress Salma Hayek, currently the star of two Hollywood films - Marvel's superhero "Eternals" and Ridley Scott's new film "Gucci", gave an interview to the British "Guardian", in which she talked about her roles, but also about her relationship with director Harvey Weinstein, an accused sex offender who has harassed her for years.
According to the Guardian, Salma Hayek initially refused to talk about Weinstein, but at one point she agreed.
"Now I want to interview you! Now, this is an interesting conversation because, if you really look at my piece, you’ll see that I really focused on the bullying [rather than the sexual harassment], and I do think women got it worse [from him]," Salma said in the interview.

"No to me taking a shower with him. No to letting him watch me take a shower. No to letting him give me a massage. No to letting a naked friend of his give me a massage. No to letting him give me oral sex. No to my getting naked with another woman. No no no no no … And with every refusal came Harvey’s Machiavellian rage.” said Salma.

She also says that Weinstein once called her during the filming of the film about Frida Kahlo and that he shouted at her. "Why do you have a [monobrow] and mustache? I didn’t hire you to look ugly!" she claims were his words.
"He never sexually abused me because I was strong and he never saw me weak. My career was also at a certain level, so he couldn't manipulate me," the actress added.
