And Ashley Judd is aking to fund her on GoFuckMe, sorry, GofundMe.
Ashley Judd, one of Harvey Weinstein’s first public accusers, has released a court filing in response to Weinstein’s recent attempt to dismiss her defamation lawsuit against him, calling the plea a “baseless and offensive study in misdirection.”
“Harvey Weinstein’s motion to dismiss is a baseless and offensive study in misdirection that demonstrates his malicious and reckless disregard for the law and for Ms. Judd’s rights to be free from sexual harassment and retaliation,” said Gibson Dunn litigator Ted Boutrous on Judd’s behalf. “It ignores and misstates key allegations in the complaint, impermissibly cites (contradictory) extrinsic evidence, and relies heavily on cases interpreting a statute that has nothing to do with this case. Weinstein also makes the bizarre argument that he purportedly sought to advance Ms. Judd’s career as part of a ‘deal’ for sex that Weinstein presents as real — rather than the decidedly ‘mock bargain’ Ms. Judd alleges she made in her complaint. He even claims that Ms. Judd was no ‘ingénue in the film business when she went to Weinstein’s hotel room,’ saying that she was ‘well-versed in the entertainment industry’ and suggesting that she should have known that a purported business meeting with Weinstein really was a ‘casting couch’ invitation. To state the obvious: conditioning career advancement on sex is textbook harassment.”
Judd filed suit accusing Weinstein of retaliating against her after she refused his sexual advances. Judd is accusing Weinstein of smearing her reputation to director Peter Jackson, preventing him from casting her in “The Lord of the Rings.”

Ashley Judd – Help Me I’m Poor
It’s time to look inside your hearts and your wallets, because everyone’s favorite Restylane Gusher’s Fruit Snack Ashley Judd has come out as poor. Or at least poor enough to want to sue Harvey Weinstein for wage loss stemming from not sucking his ding dong in hotel rooms. While literally everyone else was doing it – with Gwyneth Paltrow’s twat practically on speed dial ALLEGEDLY – Judd somehow thought that she could thwart the super producer’s advances and still make it big in Hollywood with meh looks and no talent.
My legal complaint. I am suing for economic remedy due to damage done to my career as a result of sexual harassment. Financial recuperation goes to @TIMESUPNOW @TIMESUPLDF so that American workers who experince sexual harassment & retaliation have help. https://t.co/Nod3fXgVk3

Yes Ashley, the “entertainment industry.” With the prerequisite that those involved are entertaining. And you, dear, are not. Unless you have your tits out. Which I think is what Weinstein was getting at all along. Unlike Gwyneth Paltrow, Weinstein is not taking this lying down, and released the statement through his henchmen:
It sucks to be a fat pig who has to leverage hotel fucking with movie roles, and it sucks to be an actress who nobody likes. I find both parties guilty of sucking. Something Judd should have probably done more of. What Would Gwyneth Paltrow Do.
