<\/div>\n<\/div>\nActress Salma Hayek has described Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein as a rage-fuelled \u201cmonster\u201d, alleging he sexually harassed and threatened her.<\/p>\n
Writing in the New York Times, Ms Hayek said Mr Weinstein once told her: \u201cI will kill you, don\u2019t think I can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n
Holly Baird, a spokeswomen for Mr Weinstein, disputed Ms Hayek\u2019s account.<\/p>\n
Dozens of actresses, including Rose McGowan, Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow, have accused Mr Weinstein of harassment or assault.<\/p>\n
Mr Weinstein denies all allegations of non-consensual sex.<\/p>\n
Writing in the New York Times, Ms Hayek, 51, described working with the film mogul on what she called her \u201cgreatest ambition\u201d \u2013 telling the story of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.<\/p>\n
She wrote that, after striking a deal with Mr Weinstein for the rights of the film that would eventually become 2002\u2019s Frida, she was forced to repeatedly refuse sexual advances.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo to me taking a shower with him.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo to letting him watch me take a shower.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo to letting him give me a massage.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo to letting a naked friend of his give me a massage.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo to letting him give me oral sex.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo to my getting naked with another woman,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n
She went on to accuse him of threatening to shut the film down unless she filmed a nude sex scene with another actress.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had to take a tranquilizer, which eventually stopped the crying but made the vomiting worse,\u201d she wrote of her emotional turmoil at filming a scene she thought unnecessary.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs you can imagine, this was not sexy, but it was the only way I could get through the scene.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ms Baird, Mr Weinstein\u2019s spokeswoman, said: \u201cMr Weinstein does not recall pressuring Salma to do a gratuitous sex scene with a female costar and he was not there for the filming,\u201d a statement said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll of the sexual allegations as portrayed by Salma are not accurate and others who witnessed the events have a different account of what transpired.\u201d<\/p>\n
Frida would eventually gather six Oscar nominations, including a Best Actress nod for Ms Hayek.<\/p>\n
Mr Weinstein has been accused of rape, sexual assault and harassment, but has \u201cunequivocally denied\u201d any allegations of non-consensual relationships.<\/p>\n
