34-year-old actress writes that for the age of 6 met with Harvey Weinstein several times, and met him in 2011 at the awards ceremony in Berlin; Lita then was still a student, but the producers warned her that Weinstein is better not to anger:
"Acquaintance with him will be very useful, but be careful," recalls Niongo, who gave her one of the women producers. "I left him my contacts in the hope that I was considered for one of his projects. I wanted to save a professional attitude, so I turned to him exclusively "Mr. Weinstein", and he insisted that I would call him by name. In our first meeting it seemed to me that it could be very straight and powerful, but at the same time charming. It was not easy with him, but he did not alert me. "
Acquaintance from Harvey Weinstein for Lupitis continued at his home, where the producer invited the actress for the working meeting. The "working" meeting remained only 15 minutes, after which Weinstein was away from Lupit in his bedroom and stated that she would make her massage.
"At first I thought he was joking, but I was mistaken. At that moment, for the first time since the acquaintance, I realized that I was not safe. I panicked and invented that I would offer to make a massage in return myself - this will allow me to control the situation physically, follow, where his hands are. "
Vinstein did not stop at the massage and began to shoot trousers - after which Niongo was gone.
Later, the actress repeatedly faced the producer, and he continued to offer her a personal meeting: "He told me not to be naive - if I was going to become an actress, I had to be ready for such things."
After in 2014, Niongo received Oscar for the role in the "12 years of slavery", Weinstein offered her a role in one of his future films - but the Litan refused.
