Actor Rose McGowan says she was offered $1 million to sign a nondisclosure agreement to prevent her from speaking out against disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein.
McGowan told The New York Times that the offer came from “someone close to Mr Weinstein,” just as several women were about to come forward with their claims of sexual misconduct against the Hollywood producer in an expose published by the newspaper.
McGowan, who revealed earlier this month that she was allegedly raped by Weinstein, said she considered the offer, but countered with $6 million.

The 44 year old also took to her Twitter account to express her disgust when the #WeinsteinScandal was made public.
