Maybe stick to “I just went off on something that I shouldn’t have, and I apologize profusely. I regret it so strongly.” Then shut your face and go away for a while.

I understand being tired and jet lagged, but this is not new to her. She’s not a brand new designer who has never done an interview before...she’s perfectly capable of saying, “You know what, I just got off a plane and haven’t really heard the whole story. When I have a moment to gather more information then I’ll make…

I wonder how much satisfaction Ronan Farrow got out of writing that piece about Weinstein. I’m sure he’d like to see his estranged father* taken down in the same way.

If Woody Allen were smart, he’d shut the fuck up and maintain a low profile for the forseeable future. Like, until he died.

When I said I felt sad for Harvey Weinstein I thought it was clear the meaning

Nope!

And yet addicts like Charlie Sheen and Johnny Depp secure regular work. A man has to be Mickey Rourke level before his habits are considered an insurance liability. Rose’s “issues” are garden-variety, although you’re right that she’s not bankable i.e. profitable enough for anyone to want to work around her problems.…

OMG yes...an “old dinosaur learning new tricks,” my ass. He wasn’t asking women execs to run and get him coffee, or making sexist jokes or even patting asses—he was SEXUALLY ASSAULTING women for god’s sake. I don’t think you get to laugh that off as being out of touch with the times or whatever bullshit.

This is like when people excuse Roman Polanski because the 1970s. Spoiler alert: The 1970s were fucked up and wrong, but they were also about ten minutes ago. And fucked-up shit is always pretty obviously wrong to the recipients of that behavior ... it’s not like sodomizing 13 year olds was ever OK, just that at some…

She’s not defending him, she’s running PR. Everyone has a right to a defense, not positive press.

I was ticking them off in my head.

Jesus I’ve always had a ladyboner for him but like, that’s just instantly gone. This is some sick shit. Like, at BEST he’s a completely self-absorbed control freak. Nope. Wow. RUN, NIKKI! Get out while you can! 

I know, it made me nauseous reading it, more because Nikki was playing it off like it was funny, and it’s not. Is Ian gas-lighting her or something? That was fucking disturbing.

I’d be willing to bet that he often uses that age gap to override her opinions, preferences, and hesitations.

Holy SHIT. I am horrified by BOTH of their reactions. Jesus H tap-dancing Christ.

Yes! This is not cute in the slightest. It’s deeply upsetting.

That’s because it is sexual assault.

Yeah let me tell you. It takes a lot of manipulation to get a person to the point where a dude can throw away all her birth control pills while a friend films it and then she can have his baby. Just based on this interview, he’s been pushing her boundaries and testing her limits since they first starting dated.…

I will never be able to see this smug asshole without thinking about how he pulled this shit. Had Reed been smart she would have dumped him then and never looked back. A man who would do this kind of thing has zero respect for you.
