Critically-acclaimed director Oliver Stone has been accused by yet another woman of sexual harassment.
Actress Melissa Gilbert revealed on Andy Cohen’s satellite radio show on Monday how she was sexually harassed by the director while auditioning for his 1991 film The Doors.
The 53-year-old actress, best known for her role on the long-running television series Little House on the Prairie, said the ‘humiliating and horrid incident’ happened when she was auditioning for the role of Pamela Courson, girlfriend of Doors frontman Jim Morrison.

‘I had auditioned and then he said I have written this special scene for you, I’d like you to do it with the actor, I want to see the chemistry with the two of you.
‘And the whole scene was just my character on her hands and knees saying, “Do me, baby”‘ Gilbert recalled.
While actors usually only read lines in auditions, Gilbert says that Stone wanted her to physically act out the compromising scene.
Gilbert refused and left the casting room in tears. The part eventually went to Meg Ryan.
‘It was humiliating and horrid and he got me…it hurt,’ she said.

Gilbert believes the audition was revenge for embarrassing Stone at a club some time before that.
‘He was ragging on television… he was telling everyone how television was c**p and he’d never do it,’ she recalled.
‘And then all these girls came running up to me because they had seen me on Little House on the Prairie. And they left and he was dumbfounded, and I said, “You see, a**hole? That’s television!” And I guess he never forgot it,’ she said.
At first, Gilbert seemed reluctant to name her harasser, but halfway-through telling the story she said, ‘Oh f*** it, it was Oliver Stone, and it was “The Doors.”‘
DailyMail.com reached out to Stone for comment but did not immediately receive a response Monday afternoon.
This isn’t the first sexual harassment allegation that the director has been hit with.

Last month, after Stone issued a statement in support of Harvey Weinstein, a Playboy playmate accused Stone of once honking her breasts ‘like a horn’.
Actress Patricia Arquette also said that Stone tried to audition her for a movie that was ‘very sexual’. After a ‘very professional’ meeting, she said that he sent her ‘long stem jungle roses’ and invited her to a screening of his film Natural Born Killers.
Arquette said she found his behavior ‘weird’ so she decided to bring her boyfriend to the film screening with her, and Stone was visibly displeased.
‘Oliver stopped me coming out of the bathroom. He said ‘Why did you bring him?’ I said “Why is it a problem I brought him? It shouldn’t be a problem. Think about THAT Oliver,”‘ she tweeted about the incident. ‘Anyway never heard about the movie again & didn’t care to.’
