Harvey Weinstein Responds to Salma Hayek's Sexual Harassment Allegations A spokesperson for Weinstein released a statement responding to Hayek's New York Times op-ed, discrediting the actress's accounts of his alleged sexually inappropriate behavior. Mr. Weinstein does not recall pressuring Salma to do a gratuitous sex scene with a female costar and he was not there for the filming. Harvey Weinstein spokesperson All of the sexual allegations as portrayed by Salma are not accurate and others who witnessed the events have a different account of what transpired. The statement also acknowledged that Weinstein pushed for Hayek to portray Frida instead of Jennifer Lopez, who was a "bigger star" at the time.
