Sandra Bullock
Sandra Bullock says she once asked to be let go from a project she was working on after a person in power made unwanted advances towards her. The Oscar-winning actor, 53, said she tried to deal with the awkward situation through humour but did not succeed.
"Very early on in my career, I had a situation on a film, which was hard. It came from a person of authority. I kept deflecting it with humour and it didn't work. Finally, I said, 'Please, just fire me.' It was a lesson. After that, I tended to remove anything that could be misconstrued as sexual. I locked it down," Bullock said.
She, however, added that her awkward encounter was not with disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
