ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - Anne Heche has claimed she was fired from a job after she refused to sexually pleasure Harvey Weinstein but says her abuse as a child helped her say no.
The 48-year-old has now added her name to the list of women who have accused the disgraced movie mogul of sexual abuse or harassment.
Heche has said that Weinstein flashed his penis at her and wanted her to give him oral sex but she refused and left his room.
She had been working on a Miramax studio movie but was kicked offset after the incident.
Speaking on the Allegedly with Theo Vonn & Matthew Cole Weiss podcast, Heche said: "First of all, you were threatened the second you walk out the door.
"I personally did not suck Harvey's d**k, although he showed it to me and I got out of the room before there was any physical contact.
"The fact is, I was fired from a job I had been hired for in Miramax.
"The repercussions of standing up for yourself were as deep and targeted as some of the scars of the women who actually got more physically unfortunately involved.
"The efforts he made to have people followed, have threats, he fired people.
