Harvey Weinstein responded via a spokesperson to Salma Hayek’s allegations of sexual harassment and verbal abuse, EW has learned.
“All of the sexual allegations as portrayed by [Hayek] are not accurate and others who witnessed the events have a different account of what transpired,” the spokesperson said.
According to the statement, Weinstein “regards Salma Hayek as a first-class actress” and acknowledges that “there was creative friction” on the set of Frida.
The spokesperson added, “By Mr. Weinstein’s own admission, his boorish behavior following a screening of Frida was prompted by his disappointment in the cut of the movie.” The spokesperson also noted that Frida opened in five theaters, not two as Hayek had indicated.
