MISCONDUCT.
HENSTRIDGE HERSELF REVEALING IN
AN OCTOBER 12th TWEET, HARVEY
WEINSTEIN IS NOT THE ONLY MAJOR
HOLLYWOOD PREDATOR OUT THERE.
THAT'S FOR SURE.
I KNOW FIRSTHAND.
AND ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, TELLING
"THE LOS ANGELES TIMES" ABOUT
THE NIGHT SHE FOUND HERSELF
ALONE WITH RATNER IN AN
APARTMENT IN THE MID-'90s.
SHE SAYS SHE FELL ASLEEP AFTER
HANGING OUT WITH FRIENDS.
WHEN SHE WOKE UP, ALL OF HER
FRIENDS HAD LEFT.
THAT'S WHEN SHE SAYS SHE GOT UP
TO LEAVE AND RATNER BLOCKED THE
DOOR.
THEN FORCING HER TO PERFORM ORAL
SEX ON HIM.
ALTHOUGH HE ACKNOWLEDGES SPEND
SPENDING TIME WITH HENSTRIDGE,
RATNER DISPUTES HER CLAIMS.
AFTER BEING UPSET THAT MY CLIENT
HAD A GIRLFRIEND, HE WOULD NOT
LEAVE FOR HER.
BUT THE ACCUSATIONS CONTINUE TO
MOUNT, INCLUDING FROM OLIVIA
MUN, WHO SAYS HE PLEASURED
HIMSELF IN FRONT OF HER.
RATNER VEHEMENTLY DISPUTES THAT
CLAIM AND CAT GOUSEGORICALLY DENIES
ALL CLAIMS OF SEXUAL MISCONDUCT.
NATASHA IS HERE WITH US THIS
MORNING.
>> GOOD MORNING.
>> THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
>> WHAT IS IT LIKE TO SEE HIM IN
THAT PIECE?
>> IT'S REALLY HARD TO WATCH.
IT'S HARD TO HEAR THE DENIALS
AND IT'S HARD TO WATCH.
YEAH.
I'M SO EMOTIONAL, I'M SO SORRY.
>> IT'S NERVE-RACKING.
>> IT IS NERVE-RACKING.
I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE ON
YOUR SHOW TALKING ABOUT
SOMETHING LIKE THIS, OR ANYTHING
ON THAT LEVEL, OTHER THAN, YOU
KNOW, YOUR FUN THINGS WHERE
YOU'RE PROMOTING YOUR SHOWS AND
YOUR MOVIES AND HAVING A LAUGH
AND JOKING AROUND.
SOMETHING THIS PERSONAL IS VERY
DIFFICULT.
>> TO YOUR CREDIT, BECAUSE SO
MANY ACTRESSES HAVE COME OUT
WITH ALLEGATIONS.
IN A TWEET OR ON FACEBOOK AND
REFUSED TO GO ON CAMERA.
A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY
DON'T FOLLOW TWITTER.
THEY DON'T READ "THE HOLLYWOOD
REPORTER."
BUT THEY WATCH THE "TODAY" SHOW.
>> I DID NOT WANT TO DO THIS.
I DID NOT WANT TO BE ON CAMERA,
EITHER.
I WILL BE HONEST WITH YOU.
>> IT'S HARD.
>> TAKE US BACK.
YOU'RE 19 YEARS OLD.
BEFORE WE ALL KNEW YOU.
AND YOU'REUP-AND-COMING IN THE
BUSINESS.
WHAT DID YOU THINK OF HIM?
>> STRICTLY SPEAKING BEFORE I
WAS ACTING IN THE BUSINESS.
I KNEW HIM THROUGH A GROUP OF
FRIENDS.
I WAS MODELING AND DOING TV
COMMERCIALS AND JUST STARTING --
JUST STARTING OFF.
AND I KNEW HIM ONLY THROUGH A
GROUP OF FRIENDS.
WE HAD SOME MUTUAL FRIENDS WE
SPENT TIME WITH IN GROUP
DYNAMICS.
ONLY A COUPLE OF TIMES.
I DID NOT KNOW HIM WELL, AT ALL.
WE WERE IN GROUP SITUATIONS, TWO
OR THREE TIMES, I BELIEVE.
AND LIKE YOUR THING SAID,
BASICALLY, FOUND MYSELF WITH A
GROUP, AT NIGHT, HANGING OUT,
WATCHING A MOVIE AT AN APARTMENT
AROUND THE CORNER FROM WHERE I
LIVED, WHICH I ASSUMED WAS HIS
APARTMENT.
I DIDN'T KNOW HIM WELL.
THERE WERE SIX OR SEVEN OF US
THERE.
AND WE ALL SORT OF FELL ASLEEP
OR WHAT I THOUGHT.
WE WERE JUST DOZING OFF WATCHING
A FILM.
WHEN I WOKE UP, I WAS ALONE
THERE WITH HIM.
AND TRIED TO LEAVE AND -- ONE
THING LED TO ANOTHER.
AND HE DIDN'T -- HE WAS NOT
GOING TO ALLOW ME TO LEAVE.
SO, YEAH.
HE BLOCKED THE DOOR.
A
AND DIDN'T LET ME LEAVE.
IT WAS REALLY SCARY FROM THERE.
>> DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT UWAS
GOING THROUGH YOUR MIND AT THAT
MOMENT?
>> AT FIRST, I THOUGHT HE WAS
COMING ON STRONG AND TRYING TO
CONVINCE ME THAT, YOU KNOW,
THERE WAS SOMETHING BETWEEN US.
YOU KNOW, HE WAS TRYING TO BE
SUPERCONVINCING.
INITIALLY, THAT WAS MY INITIAL
THOUGHT UNTIL I MADE MORE OF AN
EFFORT TO SORT OF GET OUT.
THAT'S WHEN I REALIZED HE WASN'T
SORT OF WASN'T PLAYING AROUND
ANYMORE.
AND HE JUST -- HE GOT VERY
AGGRESSIVE.
AND -- YEAH.
>> AFTER IT WAS OVER, HOW DID
YOU FEEL?
>> PRETTY TERRIFIED.
I RAN OUT OF THERE -- I GOT OUT
OF THERE QUICKLY.
WHEN I WAS ALLOWED TO LEAVE.
THAT'S WHAT IT FELT LIKE.
I LIVED VERY CLOSE BY.
I RAN HOME FROM THE APARTMENT
THAT DAY.
I RAN HOME IN TEARS.
AND FEELING HORRIBLY ASHAMED.
BUT ALSO FEELING DIRTY, FEELING
GROSS, FEELING ALL OF THOSE
THINGS.
BUT ALSO REALIZING I HAD NOTHING
TO DO WITH IT.
I HAD NO SAY IN IT.
THAT WAS JUST A HORRIBLE
SITUATION.
A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ASKED HOW
CAN THAT HAPPEN IN HOW DOES
SOMEBODY FORCE YOU INTO ORAL
SEX?
WHEN YOU'RE AFRAID OF SOMEBODY,
WHEN YOU PHYSICALLY DON'T KNOW
WHAT SOMEBODY IS CAPABLE OF --
I'M SORRY.
WHEN YOU'RE AFRAID OF THEM, YOU
KNOW, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
THEY'RE CAPABLE OF DOING.
AND THEREFORE, YOU SUBMIT.
AND I SUBMITTED.
I DID SUBMIT.
>> MANY WOMEN TALK ABOUT THEY
SHAME THEMSELVES AFTER THE FACT
AND BLAME THEMSELVES.
>> YEAH.
>> DID YOU HAVE THAT?
>> I THINK I DID.
HONESTLY, I THINK I WENT THROUGH
THE EMOTIONAL IMPACT OF THAT.
AND I THINK AT THAT POINT, I
JUST SHOVED IT AWAY, VERY
QUICKLY.
AND MOVED PAST IT.
IT CERTAINLY REARED ITS HEAD
WHEN I HAD TO RUN INTO HIM OR
SEE HIM.
I HAD SPOKEN TO BOYFRIENDS ABOUT
IT.
THINGS LIKE THAT.
PEOPLE I WAS VERY CLOSE TO,
FRIENDS AND, YOU KNOW, THAT SORT
OF THING.
YOU KNOW, I JUST -- YOU JUST
PUSH THAT STUFF AWAY.
AND YOU BECOME A WARRIOR AND
STRONG AND FORGET IT EVER
HAPPENED.
YOU KNOW, THAT KIND OF THING.
I THINK THAT'S WHERE I -- THAT'S
WHERE I HAVE CHOSEN TO LIVE AND
HOW I CHOSE TO LIVE AFTER
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
>> HE WENT ON TO BECOME THIS
VERY SUCCESSFUL DIRECTOR.
BACK AT THE TIME, HE WAS DOING
MUSIC VIDEOS.
NOW, HE'S ONE OF HOLLYWOOD'S
BIGGEST DIRECTORS.
AND YOU SEE HIM IN THE HOLLYWOOD
STAR OF FAME.
HE'S SO CELEBRATED FOR "X MEN."
WERE YOU SITTING THERE AT HOME
LIKE --
>> I THOUGHT, THERE IS SO LITTLE
JUSTICE WHEN I SEE SOME OF THESE
PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT GOOD PEOPLE.
WHEN I SEE THEM -- WHEN I SEE
THEM RISE.
AND THEY'RE IN THE SAME
BUSINESS.
AND WE SORT OF STARTED
SIMILARLY, AT SIMILAR TIMES AND
MOVING TO LOS ANGELES, I THINK,
AT SIMILAR TIMES.
AND SEE HIM CATAPULT INTO FAME.
AND I THOUGHT, LIFE REALLY ISN'T
FAIR.
YOU KNOW?
HONESTLY, THAT'S SORT OF HOW I
FELT.
>> THERE'S MUCH MORE TO
NATASHA'S STORY, INCLUDING,
BRETT RATNER HAS THREATENED ONE
OF THE WOMEN ACCUSING HIM, WITH
A DEFAMATION SUIT.
HE BROUGHT ONE AGAINST HER.
THESE WOMEN SPEAK OUT, NOT
WITHOUT RISK.
WE'RE GOI
