Sexual predator Harvey Weinstein had his eyes on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan too

It seems Harvey Weinstein had his eyes on Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan too. This was revealed by Simone Sheffield, who used to be the manager of Aishwarya.

Simone revealed that Harvey Weinstein tried very hard to get Aishwarya alone. Harvey told her to leave the meeting numerous times and she politely declined each time. Once he asked Simone what should he do to get Aishwarya alone and she replied ‘kiss my black a**’.

So Harvey Weinstein never threatened Simone Sheffield like he did to others?

He did, revealed Simone. Harvey threatened her and said that he would put her out of business. Simone said that what she replied to Harvey can’t be given in print and signed off by saying that she never gave him the opportunity to ‘even breathe on my client’.

Wish everybody had a manager like Simone.

Simone added that once she and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan returned to the hotel, she sent her a steel pig trough (big container) filled with Diet Coke as a thank you gift for the meeting.
