Rebel Wilson hits back and warns 'the truth WILL come out' after she accused Sacha Baron Cohen of...

Rebel Wilson

Rebel Wilson has reported that many women have contacted her after her revelation that she was sexually harassed by Sacha Baron Cohen, popularly known as Ali G. According to her, these new individuals have corroborated her account, and she believes that the reality of the matter will soon come to light.

Rebel, who is famous for her role in Pitch Perfect, stated in her book called Rebel Rising that the actor who played Borat requested her to take off her clothes for certain scenes. The actor went against her contract that specifically stated 'no nudity' and also made inappropriate sexual requests.

Baron Cohen's representatives have stated that he denies any accusations of mistreating or harassing Rebel during the production of the 2016 action comedy film, Grimsby, which was also known as The Brothers Grimsby in North America.

Rebel has mentioned in her new autobiography, Rebel Rising, that other women have reached out to her since she made the accusations. However, it should be noted that there is currently no indication that these women are making similar allegations against the Borat actor.

Baron Cohen, who is 52 years old, recently made public the news that he and his wife Isla Fisher, 48, are splitting up. Insider information seems to indicate that their high-profile relationship had been facing difficulties for quite a while, and that the accusations made by Rebel had acted as a trigger for the separation.

Rebel Wilson, who was recently seen at the BFI London Film Festival, has stated that numerous women have reached out to her after she spoke out about Sacha Baron Cohen's alleged sexual misconduct.

. In the news this week, Sacha Baron Cohen, famous for his role as Borat, and his actress wife Isla Fisher have announced their separation. However, sources say that the split actually occurred last year.

A person called Rebel alleged that Baron Cohen coerced her into taking her clothes off for certain scenes and requested her to do a sexual act on him while shooting the unsuccessful movie Grimsby.

Rebel flaunted a stylish look in a smooth, green satin gown as she lounged on the couch. Her caption read, "It's been quite the week!" - an indication of the overwhelming response her book has garnered.

During a recent interview, Rebel mentioned that the women who reached out to her haven't made a final decision on whether to publicly share their own accusations. It's ambiguous what specific allegations they have and who they involve.

She went on to say: 'Speaking out against someone of great influence can be difficult, as they have access to expensive lawyers, crisis public relations teams, and various tactics to intimidate you.'

It doesn't feel wonderful when all I'm doing is recounting my tale in my autobiography, which I have every right to do.

I tend to believe that eventually, the truth will be revealed. That's why having the book available is so important. It allows people to read beyond the sensationalized headlines and delve into the actual content of the chapters.

The comments, which were initially shared by The Sun newspaper, emerged following a period of intense speculation surrounding Baron Cohen's relationship status since the publication of Rebel's book.

She had portrayed Baron Cohen's romantic partner in the movie Grimsby, which didn't do well in theaters and was heavily criticized.

In the movie, Baron Cohen played the role of Nobby, who is a passionate football supporter and ended up being involved in the spy world. The film also featured other famous actors, including Isla, Mark Strong, Penelope Cruz, Ricky Tomlinson, and Johnny Vegas.

In her memoir, Rebel alleged that while shooting, Rebel would demand her to remove her clothes for certain scenes, despite being informed about her 'no nudity' clause. Moreover, he even urged her to perform an inappropriate act involving his buttocks in front of the camera, just for the sake of amusement.

In her post, she stated that she felt extremely disrespected by his behavior, causing her to mistreat herself further by indulging in unhealthy eating habits.

Rebel, the actress who played the role of a bridesmaid, mentioned that she made a concession and consented to 'smack him on the buttocks' during an impromptu scene. She gave her consent only after several alterations were made.

However, additional footage that was made public after the accusations were made seemed to indicate that she was in agreement with the scene. However, she has strongly opposed this suggestion.

In a statement, she expressed her disapproval of releasing footage of only one part of the disgusting incident and excluding everything that happened before that. She also mentioned that her refusal to carry out the act was not shown in the footage that was released, which left her feeling horrified. The act of releasing incomplete footage was deemed unkind by her.

She said: 'This modified footage illustrates the actions I had to take to escape the room according to the events described in Rebel Rising.

SBC, in his latest attempt, has resorted to acts of bullying and deception by sharing a behind-the-scenes video without my permission.

Rebel may have referred to the event previously, mentioning comparable situations during a conversation with British celebrity Ant Middleton on his podcast Straight Talking earlier this year.

When questioned, she did not reveal the identity of the person she believed had harassed her. She informed Middleton that she immediately contacted her agent and filed an official complaint with the studio.

I am very skilled at my job and decided to proceed despite the circumstances, even though I could have chosen differently now.

Afterwards she asserted: 'The events that occurred to me are not overly extreme, yet I am still apprehensive about identifying those involved.'

On her story, Rebel posted a link to her upcoming live event in Los Angeles. During this event, she will have a face-to-face conversation with Jess Cagle about her provocative new memoir.

Once the celebrity shared a hyperlink to obtain tickets to their display, they additionally disclosed that even though the book is purchasable within America, it isn't quite prepared for purchase in the United Kingdom and Australia.

Isla and Sacha, who was born in the UK, first crossed paths at a social gathering in Sydney back in 2001. After being together for almost a decade, they eventually tied the knot.

Isla officially announced their breakup on Instagram by sharing a photo of them dressed in tennis clothing and stating: 'We've been playing an extended tennis game for more than two decades, but it's now time for us to retire our racquets.'

In the 2016 movie directed by Louis Leterrier, Rebel took on the role of Sacha's romantic partner on screen. However, she recently spoke out about the uneasy situation she faced while filming.

Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher declared their separation on Friday. This happened just a few days after Rebel stated her assertions about them in her book that was published in the US.

Rebel took to social media to inform her fans that the memoir's launch in the UK and Australia had been temporarily postponed due to an unforeseen obstacle, but it won't be for much longer.

Yahoo Lifestyle was informed by Harper Collins Australia that the release of Rebel Rising has been postponed, but they declined to give any additional statement.

The couple disclosed that they have ended their marriage, which they seem to have agreed upon the previous year. They used an odd photograph of themselves wearing tennis ensembles to reveal the news on Instagram.

'At last, we are calling it a day on our tennis playing that has spanned more than two decades,' the description alongside the image said.

We decided to file for divorce together in 2023. Our privacy has always been important to us, so we decided to handle it quietly and work through the changes together.

We always have a strong affection and care for our children. We genuinely thank you for acknowledging and honoring our family's desire for solitude.

Sources close to the couple have reported that Cohen and Fisher's marriage has been unstable for several years.

According to sources familiar with the matter, Cohen apparently faced difficulties following the decision to move their family to Australia in 2020. This move was viewed as a sacrifice.

A person informed The Sun that Isla began feeling ashamed regarding the allegations made in the book, which served as a triggering factor in her choice to disclose their separation. This decision enabled her to safeguard her professional prospects and image.

Someone who knows the couple well shared that they didn't make the decision easily and despite everything, Isla and Sacha still have strong feelings for each other and are very attached.

We have reached out to Baron Cohen's representatives to provide their commentary.

A representative for the performer had stated earlier: 'We acknowledge the significance of raising concerns, but these claims that are clearly untrue are challenged by a considerable amount of evidence that includes written records at the time, recorded visuals, and statements from people who were present prior to, during, and post-production of The Brothers Grimsby.'

Wilson spoke out on social media after the allegations surfaced. She shared a video of herself dressed in a beautiful green satin dress.

The post on Instagram was titled: 'Wow, what a hectic week! I definitely need to rest on the couch now... No kidding! A big thank you to everyone who has purchased REBEL RISING and is already enjoying it! I appreciate your support.' Lots of love.'

Last year, there were reports that Baron Cohen was getting ready to go on tour with some of his most popular characters, such as Ali G.

Last year in August, there was talk about a live stand-up tour that would showcase the character. Rumor has it that the actor experimented with performances of both Ali G and Borat, the Kazakhstan journalist, at a comedy club in Sydney this year.
