Rose McGowan reveals via Twitter that she was raped by a Hollywood 'studio head'

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 15 (UPI) -- Former Charmed actress Rose McGowan posted a series of tweets, revealing she was raped by a powerful man in Hollywood, whom she did not name.

"a (female) criminal attorney said because I'd done a sex scene in a film I would never win against the studio head. #WhyWomenDontReport," McGowan tweeted Thursday.

"because it's been an open secret in Hollywood/Media & they shamed me while adulating my rapist. #WhyWomenDontReport," the starlet continued.

"Because my ex sold our movie to my rapist for distribution #WhyWomenDontReport," read another post, which was followed by, "It is time for some [expletive] honesty in this world."
