He is the Hollywood producer at the centre of rape and sexual assault allegations. Now Sydney socialite Tziporah Malkah recalls the first night she met disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
Tziporah Malkah has opened up about the first night she met disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, and says she is not at all surprised by his downfall.
Malkah crossed paths with Weinstein, who is currently being accused of rape, sexual assault and sexual abuse by dozens of women, in 1993 when she was celebrating the after-party of her debut film Sirens alongside fellow castmates Elle Macpherson and Portia de Rossi.
“I remember the first night I met him at the premiere of Sirens in New York,” Malkah told Sunday Confidential.
“I had just turned 20 and we were all there and the after-party.
“Elle Macpherson was fluttering around them and they were all very friendly with her. I smiled at Harvey thinking surely he was going to want to meet me as much as he wanted to meet Portia and Elle and everybody else. But he gave me a dirty look and walked away.”
“Look the world’s worst kept secret is that I am Jewish and of course you can’t touch Jewish girls if you are a jew, you can only touch the gentile woman.
“That memory stayed with me.”
