The U.K. edition of Rebel Wilson’s memoir, ‘Rebel Rising,’ has been released with redactions to passages involving actor Sacha Baron Cohen. The redacted chapter, titled ‘Sacha Baron Cohen and Other Assholes,’ contained allegations by Wilson that Cohen pressured her into inappropriate scenes while filming the 2016 movie ‘The Brothers Grimsby.’ Baron Cohen’s representatives have denied the allegations as ‘demonstrably false.’
Rebel Wilson’s memoir, ‘Rebel Rising,’ has been redacted in the U.K. edition due to legal concerns about her claims regarding Sacha Baron Cohen. HarperCollins, the publisher, stated that they had to remove most of one page along with other minor redactions. Baron Cohen’s spokesperson has denied Wilson’s allegations, claiming they are false and defamatory. The U.K. edition of the memoir will be released on Thursday.
After facing legal threats from Sacha Baron Cohen’s attorneys, Harper Collins has redacted a defamatory chapter about the comedian from Rebel Wilson’s memoir, ‘Rebel Rising.’ Wilson had publicly accused Baron Cohen of mistreating her on the set of ‘The Brothers Grimsby,’ but her claims were challenged by Cohen’s camp, who maintained they were provably false. Despite Wilson’s continued public comments, Harper Collins removed the allegations to avoid legal consequences. The redaction marks a victory for Baron Cohen, who has consistently denied Wilson’s accusations.
Australian actress Rebel Wilson alleges in her new memoir, “Rebel Rising,” that a male member of the British royal family invited her to a drug-fueled orgy in Southern California in 2014. Wilson, who was a virgin at the time, claims she left the party before any sexual activity occurred.
Rebel Wilson alleges that a low-ranking British royal invited her to a sex-and-drugs-filled, medieval-themed party hosted by an unnamed U.S. tech billionaire. The incident, which Wilson describes in her memoir ‘Rebel Rising,’ involved jousting on horses, mermaids in the pool, and even an offer of ecstasy. Wilson declined to participate and left the party early, noting that the royal’s request for ‘more girls’ made sense in light of the orgies that were reportedly taking place at the event.
Rebel Wilson’s memoir, ‘Rebel Rising’, has encountered legal obstacles in the UK and Australia. The UK release of the book now features redacted claims against actor Sacha Baron Cohen, who allegedly requested a sexual act on set of their film ‘Grimsby’. Wilson has publicly accused Baron Cohen, who denies the allegations. Despite the redactions, Wilson has maintained her stance of speaking out. The book’s release in Australia has been postponed to August 2024 due to legal issues, raising questions about the potential for further redactions.
