Rebel Wilson Speaks Out On Sacha Baron Cohen Claims

Rebel Wilson is speaking out for the first time about the sexual harassment allegations that she made against her “The Brothers Grimsby” co-star Sacha Baron Cohen in her new book. “It was my worst professional experience, and just feeling like humiliated and degraded as a person,” she told “TODAY’s” Hoda Kotb on an April 1 interview. In “Rebel Rising,” she claims Cohen bullied and sexually harassed her on set, at one point allegedly asking her to engage in demeaning behavior while his male friends attempted to record it. An unnamed spokesperson for Cohen released a statement to Access Hollywood denying all claims. “Rebel Rising” is out now.

Shes promoting a book and the biggest draw is Sacha.

[alexc.]

She's just making very vague general broad statements.

Given her history of rampant lying, I'm gonna need more details before I just take her word for it.

[sebastiananthony]

"100% honest and truthful" when you hear that you know that its a lie 😂

[Gand]

Too funny, …every memoir ever is 100 percent accurate because the person it is about says so.

[TallyTube]

I can tell you why Rebel Wilson “revealed details” in two words:

Book sales.

[ginge]

Didnt she "disrespect and humiliate" tom hardy and another female actress with inappropriate behaviour. She has previously admitted what she did to them and that Rebel wilson and Tom Hardy i think it was had a falling out over her behaviour. If Sacha did do what she claims then let the courts decide but if thats where she wants to go then let them decide about HER actions that she has previously admitted to aswell

I beleive her. You dont make up stories like this for attention. The only atrntion it gets is the types in most of these comments. You dont get a lot of support as a victim. You get questioned, insulted, beratted, spat on, belittled etc. So why would anyone want that attention. Makes more sense that she just wants the truth told so some other young actress is warned.

SBC pushes the limits and pushes his colleagues to do the same. He is an a hole.

[prestigiouss]

So in her book she says "gets off on making people feel uncomfortable".... Did she not realise who she signed up to work with! If you had watched Borat or many of his other works, you'd know full well that's exactly what he goes for. Borat was incredible for that very reason of making the entire audience feel so uncomfortable. She's only using him for publicity. Hardly anyone knew about this book until she dragged him into it. It's a good job she didn't work for Louis C.K, because it would of been a whole lot worse!!

It might be time for reflection, growth, and boundaries on set, to safeguard all parties and stakeholders.

[sagepeony]

Normal woman would never talk about this, not to mention sharing publicly

[jakoblampert]

From calling herself "fat Amy" in pitch perfect, to blaming sacha for "making her wear clothes to show her fatness"

Wtf?! This is so ridiculous, every one of her movies played off of her weight in even more tacky and mean ways. Why blame sacha? I don't get it...

[juliewillard]

I hope this isn’t true. I like SBC not so much his earlier stuff but loved the series The Spy on Netflix. He was brilliant in it.

[Not]

Why ask for a taste of a pork pie when you have premium steak?

“Rebel Wilson has claimed “it felt like Sacha Baron Cohen had sexually harassed me” on the set of their 2016 film Grimsby.”

I mean really?
She “claims…” How about some definite proof but not a “claim” about a very serious accusations towards the man!
Also she claims that “probably a lot of other people that have had similar experience” Then she says “since all the headlines have been happening I have had a lot of women reach out saying they have had similar
experience with this guy.”

“Maybe, probably” This is just unbelievable…
I don’t have a clue what went on between them, true or not. But it’s really important that both sides of such a serious accusations are taken into consideration. It needs to be investigated and proofen in court(if necessary) before she can just destroy someones life in her own words through a book and some claims with no proof at all.
So sad and unsettling how easy it is to destroy someones reputation(man or a woman) with the help of a biast media and social networks…😏

[angiewolflove]

Another gold digging liar....Her career is over so let's bring Sacha down.

[skyennis]

Honestly she’s disgusting for accusing him and now the fact she has ruined his career I hope her career drops down.

[razoblicavanje]

Sexual harrasment on the obesse lady? Wtf??
I am not buying this. Sacha probably mocked her appearance, and she goes berserk.

[OliverRabies]

wow he acts holier than thou, trying to make people with opposing political views look creepy.

[jarjake]

Literally just making up a false scandal, because her book wouldn't get any attention otherwise. Disgusting.
