Gossip Girl actor Ed Westwick accused of rape

[Teal Ambition 47,805]

“Gossip Girl” star Ed Westwick has been accused of rape by actress Kristina Cohen, who detailed the alleged encounter in a Facebook post published November 6. Cohen says the sexual assault occurred three years ago at Westwick’s apartment after they first met. The actress was dating a producer who happened to be one of Westwick’s friends.

Cohen says things became uncomfortable after Westwick suggested “we should all ****.” Cohen explains that she asked her producer boyfriend to leave after Westwick’s sexual remark, but he did not want to make things awkward by heading out early. The producer reportedly told Cohen they would stay for another 20 minutes. The actress proceeded to take a nap in Westwick’s guest room, which is where the alleged rape occurred.

I am so infuriated and saddened by all of this. Why? Why is the world so messed up? Why do people do things like this? You know, there was a point where it felt nice not being alone. Now it feels frustrating that SO suffering from this and SO many sexual assaulters exist out there and still there's absolutely nothing changing. Don't tell me to be optimistic. Don't you dare. You can't talk unless you walk where I walk. And especially don't @ me if you're going to make a "be reasonable" or "why cant i haz talks" or some other centrist garbage nonsense.

I'm really sorry for the anger and negativity but I just need to vent.

Like I always think supporting the victim is 100% important - but we can’t just automatically label Ed as a rapist.

IDK I’m so conflicted.

I don’t understand why all of you jump to conclusions before official investigations. All it takes is one woman to say, that man raped me, and you all immediately side with her. I’m not saying he’s not guilty- but damn, don’t immediately think everyone is guilty of committing rape until there is an investigation. He says he has never seen that woman.

I'm sorry but why take a nap in a guest room if you're uncomfortable and want to leave after you hear someone say we should have sex?

 

Did your producer boyfriend not see you for almost 30 minutes and not care?

 

This sounds a lil weird...

THANK YOU. It's a dangerous time to be a successful male in Hollywood right now. One accusation, true or false, and you're in big trouble

They never happen or lead to anything because proving rape after the fact unless you were very proactive is extremely difficult. Right after you're raped, many don't really realize what's happening or what to do.

Yes, accusations are hard and we need to rely on more than one account. It's when so many people start coming up with it, you know it's probably not false.
