Actress and model Cara Delevingne claims that the Hollywood media mogul dishonored Harvey Weinstein told him that she "would never get there" because of her sexuality.

"At first, I did not think it helped," she told Net-a-Porter. "One of the first things Harvey Weinstein ever told me was," You will never succeed in this industry as a homosexual woman – take a beard. "

Weinstein called her while she was just starting to work as an actress. She called him "wondering if I had slept with one of the women with whom the media had seen me talk." Delevingne called the call "very strange and uncomfortable" and said that before hanging up quickly, Weinstein "told me that if I was gay or if I decided to go to school, I would not go back. to be with a woman especially in public, I would never have the role of a straight woman or do like an actress in Hollywood ".

In June, Delevingne confirmed his connection with Benson by informing E! New:

"It's pride [Month]. Stonewall has been here for 50 years, and it just celebrated our anniversary so why not? "Said Delevingne," I do not like the "official" thing, and instead of giving a title to their relationship, said "it's just a little something."

The two men were seen relaxing at the American opening earlier this month at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York. Delevingne said before Benson that she "had never really let anyone in before, for fear of letting them go." I never really trusted people, I did not feel worthy of it, and I always repelled them. "

"She is the first person who said," You can not push me away. I will be nice to you, I love you. "Said Delevingne. "I'm like, wait, so all I have to do, is just leave you nice to me." Why did not I ever do it before? OK. "
