Cara Delevingne has spoken out about her alleged sexual harassment by Harvey Weinstein.

She is the latest actress to add her story to list of accusations against the Hollywood producer.

Rose McGowan, Angelina Jolie, and Gwyneth Paltrow are among those who have already spoken out.

Yesterday, Delevingne shared her experiences with Weinstein, claiming that the producer invited the actress to his hotel room after telling her about “all the actresses he had slept with and how he had made their careers.”

Delevingne said that she didn’t want to go to the room but Weinstein’s assistant told her that she should.

“At that moment I felt very powerless and scared but didn’t want to act that way hoping that I was wrong about the situation.”

Delevingne said that when she entered the room, she saw another woman and thought that she was “safe.”

Weinstein then asked the two women to kiss.

Delevingne said that started to sing because she didn’t know what else to do.

“He walked me to the door and stood in front of it and tried to kiss me on the lips.

“I stopped him and managed to get out of the room. I still got the part for the film and always thought that he gave it to me because of what happened.”

The Paper Towns star said that she felt “guilty” and that she did not deserve the part in the movie.

“I felt guilty as if I did something wrong. I was also terrified that this sort of thing had happened to so many women I know but no one had said anything because of fear.”

The actress also detailed a time a few years before this when Weinstein allegedly called her and asked if she had slept with any of the women she had been seen out with in public.

“I answered none of his questions and hurried off the phone but before I hung up, he said to me that If I was gay or decided to be with a woman especially in public that I’d never get the role of a straight woman or make it as an actress in Hollywood.”

Weinstein was dismissed from his position earlier this week.
