Rose McGowan has slammed James Corden for jokes he made about Harvey Weinstein's alleged sexual harassment of multiple women at a star-studded gala in Los Angeles.
His three jokes making light of victims of Weinstein's harassment are being widely condemned on social media as tasteless.
McGowan's forceful condemnation of Corden comes after the English comedian hosted the amfAR Gala in Los Angeles on Friday night. The audience reacted to his jokes with a mixture of groans and applause.
'YOU MOTHERFUCKING PIGLET,' she wrote on Twitter. She proceeded to list out three points.
'1) James Corden is a close friend of [Harvey Weinstein's]…2) Hearing the audience’s vile roars & laughs show EXACTLY what kind of HOLLYWOOD you really are… 3) @CBS DONATE TO @ELAWC OR YOU TOO SUPPORT RAPE CULTURE.'
CBS broadcasts The Late Late Show with James Corden, his late-night talk show. ELAWC is the East Los Angeles Women's Center, which 'provides crisis intervention and services to women in Los Angeles impacted by sexual and domestic violence, human trafficking and HIV,' according to its Twitter profile.
The actress, who made her breakthrough in 1996 in the Weinstein-produced slasher revival movie Scream, reportedly sued Weinstein after he assaulted her in 1997 at the Sundance Film Festival.
