SoRebel Wilsonhas a memoir coming soon. It’s calledRebel Rising, and it’s out in just a few weeks — April 2, to be exact.
Now, let’s go back to May 2022, when Rebel alleged in an interview withPeoplemagazine that she wassexually harassedby a male costar several years earlier.
“He called me into a room and pulled down his pants,” Rebel alleged, claiming that the male actor asked her to perform a lewd act.
“It was awful and disgusting. And all the behavior afterwards — this was all before #MeToo — where they kind of tried to destroy me and my career. If it had happened after #MeToo, then I could have just blasted them.”
So according toDeadline, Rebel recently claimed in a post on herIG storythat a male celebrity has “threatened” her ahead of the release ofRebel Risingbecause of what she wrote about him in the book.
In the since-deleted post, Rebel said that “the asshole,” who is apparently the focus of an entire chapter of the book, “is trying to threaten me. He’s hired a crisis PR manager and lawyers.”
“He’s trying to stop press coming out about my new book. But the book WILL come out and you will all know the truth.”
We’ll see what happens whenRising Rebelis released.
