The actress has been blasting others in Hollywood - including actors Ben Affleck and Matt Damon - for failing to step up when they allegedly knew what was happening.

Sleazy Hollywood mogul Weinstein , 65, has been hit by a wave of sex allegations, which he denies.

"Any allegations of non-consensual sex are unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein," Weinstein's representative Sallie Hofmeister said yesterday.

Kate Beckinsale revealed today how Weinstein targeted her in London when she was just 17.
