An aspiring actress says she was a 16-year-old virgin when disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein sexually assaulted her in New York, according to an amended Manhattan federal racketeering lawsuit filed Wednesday.

The woman, a former model from Poland identified only as Jane Doe in the court papers, said that after agreeing to meet for a business lunch in 2002, Weinstein instead took her to his Soho apartment.

Weinstein wasted no time in aggressively and threateningly demanding sex, the suit alleges. He told the distraught starlet that if she wanted to be an actress she had to give in to his perverted desires.

Weinstein threatened and pressured Jane Doe, saying that he had made the careers of Penelope Cruz and Gwyneth Paltrow, and that neither would be working without him, the suit alleges.

He then took off his pants and forcibly held Jane Doe while taking her hand and making her touch and massage his penis, the filing states.

Weinstein allegedly became enraged when the terrified teen objected and refused to let her leave but eventually relented, the suit says.

The underage catwalker had just met Weinstein three days earlier at a soiree for her modeling agency Next.

After picking her up in his car for what she thought was a business lunch, she told him she was only 16, the papers say.

The pervy producer pursued the model for the next decade, getting her an extra role in the Nanny Diaries in 2004 but she continued to resist his demands for sex.

In a 2008 after-hours meeting in his Greenwich Street office to arrange for her to sign with the modeling agency Marilyn, Weinstein spotted Christina Aguilera on a nearby TV and allegedly said, Wow, Id really like to fk that p-y then unzipped his pants and began touching his penis, the filing states. Jane Doe fled the room.

But later she continued to discuss her career with Weinstein, including trying out for Project Runway.

Weinstein ensured she never received work because she refused to hop into bed with him, she alleges. The abuse and harassment left her depressed and exacerbated her anorexia, the suit says.

She is the 10th victim to join the class action lawsuit against Weinstein, the Weinstein Company and Miramax, accusing them of assault, battery and racketeering.

The women all claim that Weinstein lured them to hotels and auditions under the guise of furthering their careers and sexually assaulted or raped them.

The suit, filed by firm Hagens Berman, says that the companies, which it calls the Weinstein Sexual Enterprise, were aware of the producers alleged illegal conduct and enabled it by threatening victims and paying them off.

In September, a federal judge instructed three women Melissa Thompson, Caitlin Dulany and Larissa Gomez to consolidate their suit with six other class-action plaintiffs Louisette Geiss, Katherine Kendall, Zoe Brock, Sarah Ann Thomas, Melissa Sagemiller and Nannette Klatt.

The new complaint, filed Wednesday, added plaintiff Jane Doe, describing her disturbing allegations for the first time.

Weinsteins civil lawyer, Elior Shiloh, declined to comment.

This claim is preposterous, said Weinsteins criminal lawyer Ben Brafman. Like so many other women in this case who have already been exposed as liars, this latest completely uncorroborated allegation that is almost 20 years old will also be shown to be patently false.

There's nothing to be done when someone influential enough says you'll never work in said city/business again and gets on the phone with a ton of other influential people so they agree not to hire you either.

The entertainment industry isn't like regular work. How do any of you propose to fix it?

He got away with it for so comically long lol. Entertainment industry or not, any industry can get by without creepy fucks with a bunch of power

this IS how you fix it. the reason it's been such a rampant problem is because every guy knew he would be able to get away with it up until last year

But what if the best entertainers are often terrible people so entertainment in general gets noticably worse as these people are removed? That would suck.

What proof do you have that Harvey Weinstein is responsible for getting people the right roles? Wouldn't the inverse also be true then? That when this guy was in power, a more capable female actress couldn't spread her wings because she didn't wanna sleep with this guy?

Exactly. Also if you jail one of them for sexual assault/misconduct, that doesn't mean his "burn notice" that he put on her won't stay in effect.

These women want to be entertainers and if the person holding all the cards abuses that...what can ya do?

A lot of these allegations are becoming questionable. I wonder how much of it is real and how much of it is revenge for them not getting the roles they desired. Some of the witnesses are withholding evidence and the DA's case is falling apart because of it.

Here's one example:

I don't like how this article is written in that it's intentionally calling the victim "Jane Doe", but states her as an extra in "The Nanny Diaries." If she's credited or had a speaking line, she could be outed.

If anything, it'll make it worse for those who have already gone through it, refused, and complained.

However, it very well might make things much better for those in the future who may otherwise have been exposed to the same, because now the Weinstein types have got to worry about it coming back to bite them in the ass.

I really don't see why the fact she was a virgin had to be pointed out. Just made the topic title creepier.

"She's not just a teen, but she's a VIRGIN teen!" c'mon now, who the fuck even cares whether or not she had sex before

You'd prefer 16 year olds getting sexually assaulted and groomed over entertainment getting worse?

The point here is that he deliberately targeted young women with no experience in anything.

What's crazy is how many people absolutely did know about this stuff and just kept their mouths shut. It's stupid that one guy had so much power

They kept their mouths shut because he could ruin guys careers all the same.

Only conservatives who were trying to devalue the movement.
