The casting couch may still be alive and kicking in Hollywood. Who knows how many actresses fall prey to it because it is an unspoken topic usually. But Gwyneth Paltrow has opened up about her own experience with this topic.
In a new interview with Elle, Paltrow speaks about a time when she was promised a role if she would have sex with the person in charge.
Paltrow says of the incidence: “When I was just starting out, someone suggested that we finish a meeting in the bedroom. I left. I was pretty shocked. I could see how someone who didn’t know better might worry, ‘My career will be ruined if I don’t give this guy a blow job!'”
Obviously Paltrow’s career does not seem to have suffered when she stood up for her rights, but Paltrow admits she was offered better roles when she was younger.
