Harvey Weinstein Speaks in First On-Camera Interview in Prison, Slams Gwyneth Paltrow's Allegations Against Him

Harvey Weinstein is speaking out for the first time in an on-camera interview from prison.

The disgraced movie producer and former studio executive chatted with Candace Owens for an interview that will air on her YouTube channel.

Weinstein spoke to Candace from prison through a video call and he spoke into a black phone throughout the full interview.

“I hurt my family. I hurt my friends. I cheated on my wife. And that was a mistake, you know, a terrible mistake,” Weinstein claims in a trailer for the interview. “But I did not commit these crimes. I swear that before God, and the people watching now, and on my family.”

“I was not a good boss,” he said (via Variety). “I was tough and I was demanding, and I should have been better at it, but I wasn’t. I had a temper. You know, I just should have controlled myself better. And the pressures of that work was my excuse for the cheating.”

Weinstein slammed accusations made by Gwyneth Paltrow.

Gwyneth has claimed that Weinstein put his hands on her and suggested that she give him a massage when he invited her into his hotel room after being cast in the 1996 movie Emma.

“It’s a complete fabrication about my relationship with Gwyneth,” he said. “I didn’t put my hands on her. I didn’t touch her. I definitely made a pass.”

Weinstein added, “She thought the relationship was abusive. Anybody who was there, who witnessed that relationship with [Paltrow], it just turned into total friends. There’s pictures of her hugging me when I was sick and in the hospital and didn’t think I was gonna make it in 1999. Gwyneth, at the Golden Globes, said, ‘Bomber, we miss you.’ She got up and made a speech about me. Nobody asked her to do that. In her Academy speech, she thanks me.”

He claims that Gwyneth was upset that he didn’t like the script that she and her brother wrote for their adaptation of Donna Tartt‘s “Secret History.”

Weinstein spoke out recently when his kids were mentioned in Adrien Brody‘s Oscars speech.
