Brooke Shields tells of rape at a young age

In a documentary titled “Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields,” which was presented at the Sundance Film Festival on Friday (local time), Shields, now 57, says she met the man she previously knew for casting talks shortly after she graduated from college met.

The man then took her to his hotel to allegedly call a taxi from his room. Instead, he went into the bathroom, came back naked, and attacked her. “It was like wrestling. I was afraid I would choke on air,” says the actress in the film. Out of fear, she hardly resisted, but froze. “I just thought ‘stay alive and get out of here'”.

After the incident, she called her friend and security chief Gavin de Becker, who told her the attack was a rape. She didn’t want to believe that and has never spoken about it publicly to this day. The description reflects incidents that numerous prominent Hollywood actresses have made public in recent years in the wake of the MeToo affair involving Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

Shields became famous in the 80s as a teenager through the film “The Blue Lagoon”. At the age of eleven she also played a child prostitute in “Pretty Baby”.
