Asia Argento Says She Is ‘Seeking Substantial Damages’ From Rose McGowan for ‘Deception’ and ‘Libel’
One day after threatening “immediate legal action” against Rose McGowan, Asia Argento said Tuesday that she’s now seeking “substantial damages for deception, fraud, coercion and libel” from her former friend and fellow Harvey Weinstein accuser.
“To @rosemcgowan. The 24hr deadline given to retract your recent false statements about me has now passed,” Argento tweeted on Tuesday. “I must inform you & @raindovemodel that I’ve instructed Mishcon de Reya to seek substantial damages for deception, fraud, coercion and libel. You will hear from them shortly.”
On Monday, Argento demanded in a tweet that McGowan retract the contents of an August 27 statement about sexual misconduct accusations lodged against Argento.
