Actress Lindsay Lohan told The Times of London that she does not support the #MeToo movement. “I’m going to really hate myself for saying this, but I think by women speaking against all these things, it makes them look weak when they are very strong women,” she said. The actress characterized those who have come forward as attention-seekers. She told The Times she is “very supportive of women,” but said they need to report misconduct when it happens. “If it happens at that moment, you discuss it at that moment. You make it a real thing by making it a police report.” Last year, Lohan defended movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, who has been accused of rape, sexual assault, or sexual harassment by 87 women. “I feel very bad for Harvey Weinstein right now. I don’t think it’s right what’s going on. He’s never harmed me or did anything to me,” she said in an Instagram video. “We’ve done several movies together. I think everyone needs to stop. I think it’s wrong. So, stand up.”
