Rose McGowan Accuses Alexander Payne of Sexual Misconduct: 'I Was 15'

ose McGowan has accused the director and screenwriter Alexander Payne of sexual misconduct when she was 15-years-old.

The actress and activist, who is known for her involvement in the #MeToo movement, took to Twitter Monday where she wrote: "Alexander Payne. You sat me down & played a soft-core porn movie you directed for Showtime under a different name. I still remember your apartment in Silverlake. You are very well-endowed. You left me on a street corner afterwards. I was 15."

In a second tweet, the 46-year-old shared a photo of herself aged 15.

She tweeted: "I just want an acknowledgement and an apology. I do not want to destroy. This was me at 15."

Two-time winner of the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, Payne, is best know for the films Election, About Schmidt, Sideways, The Descendants, Nebraska, and Downsizing.

McGowan was one of the first women to publicly accuse Harvey Weinstein of sexual abuse.

Newsweek has reached out to Payne for comment but did not receive a response at the time of reporting.

The Charmed actress further spoke out about her experience of working in Hollywood last month, in a scathing attack on the industry.

Sharing a photo of herself during what appears to be the height of her acting career, McGowan revealed she "never liked" working in Hollywood.

"It was a means to my end. My goals. My Hollywood was a job filled with mostly sociopathic predators shooting damaged fish in a barrel," she wrote in the caption.

"We, the beautiful ones, we were the fish. We were their targets. The truth of it is that the beautiful ones are looked at as the weak gazelles in the herd, the ones that limp under the attention they receive. It was too much for me."

She went on to describe Hollywood agents as "low-key human traffickers."

"Honestly, I think agents in Hollywood are low-key human traffickers," she said. "Anyone who makes money in a negotiation of how long my right breast can be on the screen and PROFITS from it?! Sanctioned pimping if you ask me."

Weinstein is currently serving a 23-year sentence in the maximum security Wende Correctional Facility, a prison near Buffalo, New York prison. He was sentenced after being found guilty of the sexual assault of former Project Runway production assistant Miriam Haley and the third-degree rape of actress Jessica Mann.

[R33] That's why I commented on her upbringing. What sort of mother and/or father would allow their 15 year old daughter to spend the night at the apartment of an older man? She was obviously sexually active. Any sexually active, post-pubescent person, regardless of their numerical age, needs to know how to handle their body and how to enforce boundaries. Payne didn't force himself on her - she exuded sexual availability. In the past, women were married with children at age 15 - I don't find that aspect of it shocking.

[R51] Correct. No one else can enforce "personal boundaries" for you. If you find yourself in an uncomfortable situation (most of us have), you need to extricate yourself from it. If you have done something you wish you hadn't then it's on you to learn from your experiences and make sure you don't repeat it. That's life. These Hollywood women are delusional and have expanded the definition of "rape" so broadly it's become absurd - which makes a mockery of actual rape.

R71 So many straight men molest and rape their daughters that if you knew the real numbers your head would explode. The daughters get fucked up in the head and worship Daddy-Daughter “love”, but block out what really happened knowing subconsciously that is was wrong. This “protect Daddy” attitude is why we can’t get rid of the Patriarchal hierarchy. They project their sexual deviance or shame off onto other parties, hence the reason they go after homosexuals. People turn a blind eye to fathers who are inappropriate with their daughters but go off on looney tirades about elusive, invisible strangers going after kids. Children are most likely to be molested at home, not the restroom at Target or even school. All the recent Pedo hysteria is ridiculous, not to mention the word is seldom used in the correct context. Everytime I see some Frau going on some QAnon Pedo tangent on social media I think, “Guess she got fucked by her Dad!?”

And then he retaliated by embarrassing her on set one day, which was shitty sure, but my god grow up.

Of course, the story doesn't really add up, and all it takes is a cursory look at Wikipedia and IMDb.

Payne didn't graduate from film school until 1990, and his first directing credit was for the Playboy softcore video Inside Out in 1991. Payne had no issue taking credit for softcore work in the nineties, so it doesn't seem plausible he would do it under a pseudonym earlier than that. Or that he would even be directing television episodes while still in film school in 1988-1989, when Rose was fifteen.

Let's assume he did show her his segment of Inside Out, then fucked her. That would mean it would have been in 1991 at the earliest, so she was either seventeen or eighteen at the time.

[R85] This is an outburst of hysterical misandry. You refer to statistics about molestation, then neglect to divulge those stats or sources. Girls are exponentially more likely to be molested by a stepfather than a biological father, which is one of the many unfortunate results of multiple marriages, divorces and blended families. Irresponsible parents generally produce fucked up kids and just because dysfunctional family situations are so rampant that they seem "normal" doesn't lessen their societal impact. Just look to the rioting in the streets to see the results of fucked up families.

She's now establishing that she is and was an opportunist, sleeping with men to get ahead, (which has been rumored behind the scenes for decades) You can't paint yourself a victim over and over and over. You become a participant after you reach a certain level of awareness that these are the rules to play the game.

I don't feel sorry for these women and men at all. They know exactly the fire that they are playing with! Sex is currency in Hollywood. Anyone who will do anything, to be rich and famous, is willing pay the fee!

Hollywood hates her, particularly starlets, because she blew the lid off the whole scene. Girls knew they just had to hold their nose and suck off Harvey’s tiny blackhead covered penis, and it was the path to stardom. Now they have to do it the hard way and it’s all Rose’s fault. Do you think Paltrow, Streep, Milano etc wanted to make a public stand against Weinstein? No! of course not, they wanted to keep the money machine rolling in Hollywood.

Rose was a tattletale and a smart aleck and no one will work with her again.

She goes further on an updated IG post. This goes back to what a earlier post-er wrote about people having experiences and just chalking it up as a bad experience and not retroactively saying it was assault. As the adult Payne was wrong. No doubt about it, but she engaged him willingly and now feeling bad about it or just taking in how now there is an ideal that whenever someone regrets sex, it should be deemed non-consensual or grooming or assault.

rosemcgowan: Last night I dropped a bomb of truth. For years I had thought a man I had sexual relations with was a a sexual experience I had. I now know I was groomed. I auditioned for him at 15. After my experience with him, I quit acting entirely until I was ‘discovered’ at 21. When that happened, I was like, fuck it, let’s do this. I even tweeted a congratulations on his Oscar win in 2012, that’s how deep in the Cult of Hollywood I was. It wasn’t until three weeks after the Weinstein story broke that I re-evaluated the situation. I feel badly about throwing a bomb into someone’s life and career, but I guess that’s social conditioning. I’m more sad than angry. Sad for 15 year-old me. Sad for the adult me that still thought it was a choice I made. Grooming is real. I want you all to know that it’s not your fault if you were mentally massaged into thinking it’s okay. It is not. I know this now. I would even go up to this director at events and ask him, with a smile, “remember when you had sex with me at 15?” And I would laugh it off. That is deep societal programming. If you are out there trying to have sex with an underage minor, you are committing a crime, even if the minor doesn’t know it. I was attracted to him, so I thought it was on me, but that’s not correct. I was not an adult. When it happened, I’d recently been left behind in Hollywood by a family member to fend for myself. The wolves preyed. Please recognize that if this has happened to you, the shame is not yours, it’s theirs. Give it back. Groomers are skilled operators and at 15, I was not aware of the warning signs. I named him on Twitter, but since Instagram is my softer side, I just don’t want his name here. Goddess bless us all, except for those that abuse their power. Here’s to freedom, yours and mine.

[quote] Why did she keep falling for the same tricks. It's like getting in a car accident over and over at the same intersection. Most people would avoid that intersection. But not Rose.

Apparently people who have been sexually abused tend to put themselves in these types of situations over and over and over again. Especially if the abuse happened very early in life. They lack personal boundaries, or can't feel them, or think they're not worthy of people respecting their boundaries. Many victims also become oversexualized and promiscuous and can't seem to interact with others in a non-flirtatious manner. It's like their whole existence is defined by sex.

As someone who's never been sexually abused, I don't get it, it's completely counterintuitive to me, but it seems to be a common pattern.

Sexual abuse screws people up in ways that are hard to grasp. R131 hits the nail on the head.

She was basically a runaway. Grew up in a cult (The Children if God), then when the family got out, was raised by a sick, abusive father who made her sleep in a closet. Her autobiography is actually very interesting- but horrifying.

But to answer your question, I think she was alone in L.A., auditioned for Mr. Payne at 15, who then for some idea thought it was a good idea to invite her home, show her porn, have sex with her, then dump her in front of a cafe.

The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way about her was attacking other women in the industry for the silence of lack of being as outspoken as her. Who made her god. It was very sanctimonious and arrogant. However if all these things has happened to her she has every to speak on it. We all know there's a lot of predators in the industry. Her antics just seem attention seeking because there's that many fkin sexual deviants among them.

With that being said I think somethhing traumatic happen to Rose in a very peculiar way, even beyond the Weinstein stuff. I think she was one of those sexually confident, assertive young girls that was screwed over and manipulated sexually and she suffers from PTSD from it. I think she may have even been sexually open and liberal when it came to talking about sex and showcasing it, so many people think she deserved what happened.

As if thats all agents do. Thats not even the meat of it. Hell, most films don't contain nudity so that would never be discussed. But its like her mind is fucked up; she only focuses on and obsesses on the sexual aspects of hollywood. I feel for this woman. There's something there. She is talented and beautiful, but her mind has some sort of PTSD. She obsesses over sex in any part of criticizing the industry even using unique or one off circumstances to make her arguments. Just because her agent discussed how long her breast would appear on film in a role in which she was topless does not make the Hollywood agents pimps. But its like her mind can't comprehend that.
