If you do not know who Asia Argento is, we’ve got that covered for you. She was one of the first actresses to point fingers at movie mogul Harvey Weinstein for sexual abuse, which spiralled into a deep mess for the latter. She is also a #MeToo prime activist which unearthed many hidden abuses against women. 

Well, why are we talking about her now. She’s trending again, but for all the wrong reasons. Argento who is accused of sexual abuse on an undreage actor Jimmy Bennett, seems to have admitted to having sex with the actor in leaked private chat. All this after a public denial that too. Shocking? You should read the leaked texts definitely.

The incident came to light when a leaked private chat between Argento and her friend came to light when a celebrity website published them. In that she had confessed to having a sexual relationship with the teenager saying he ‘jumped her’. “It (sic) wasn't raped. but I was frozen. He was on top of me. After, he told me I had been his sexual fantasy since he was 12,” she said.

Even a photo (below) of the duo lying topless has emerged in the web.

She also reveals that when finally the accusation came out, she wanted to talk publicly about it. However according to her it was her late boyfriend Anthony Bourdain who wanted to pay Bennett and silence him off.

Argento had also offered to pay $380,000 to Bennett after having threatened to be sued for having sex with a minor. She had paid Bennett months after she accused Harvey Weinstein and this created an image of hypocrisy on her.
