Lindsay Lohan says she is for “women empowerment” after being criticized for her defense of Harvey Weinstein.
Reportedly, while over three dozen Hollywood actresses have accused Weinstein of sexual misconduct, Lohan took to Instagram to clarify why she stood behind the movie producer.
“Whatever anyone says, I am for women empowerment as if most women in America cared how I was abused by my ex fiance… When not one person stood up for me while he was abusing me,” Lohan wrote alongside a screenshot from the movie Parent Trap.
But that caption is an edited version of what the actress originally posted.
In her first caption, she wrote that she was for women empowerment and claimed that people didn’t care about her ex-fiancé allegedly abusing her.
“Whatever anyone says, I am FOR #womenempowerment If most women in America cared how I was abused by my exfiancé…when not one person stood up for me while he was abusing me…you could only imagine what it feels like to come out as a #strongwoman BUT, acknowledge this, we all make our own choices and wake up in our own beds in the morning. I prefer to go to my home and wake up alone. #BESTRONG let us not blame anyone as #karma will always takes its toll.”
