Rebel Wilson has used a string of tweets to share her own experiences of alleged sexual harassment in the film industry.
Posted on Saturday, the actress and comedian gave details of how an unnamed 'male star' repeatedly asked her to perform a sex act on him while several of his male friends attempted to record it on their phones. She explains that she had refused and eventually left the room.

Having reported the incident to her agent and legal representatives, she continued to explain how the star's representatives 'threatened' her to be nice to the individual. Describing it as 'disgusting', Wilson adds that she urged others working in the industry to steer clear of the person allegedly responsible.
