A former Playboy Playmate has accused film director Oliver Stone of groping her breast at a party, after Stone spoke out in defense of embattled Harvey Weinstein.
‘When I heard about Harvey, I recalled Oliver walking past me & grabbing my boob as he walked out the front door of a party. Two of a kind!,’ Carrie Stevens, 48, tweeted on Thursday.
‘Two of a kind! When I heard about Harvey, the first person I thought of was Oliver Stone, and it figures…’ the June 1997 Playboy Playmate of the Month wrote.
A representative for Stone did not immediately reply to request for comment.

The model’s accusation came in response to an interview with Stone in The Hollywood Reporter, in which the film director spoke out in defense of Weinstein, who faces a rising tide of sexual harassment and assault allegations stretching back decades.
‘I’m a believer that you wait until this thing gets to trial,’ Stone remarked of Weinstein.
Stone was speaking with reporters at the Busan International Film Festival in South Korea, where he is serving as chair of the event’s competition jury.
‘I believe a man shouldn’t be condemned by a vigilante system. It’s not easy what he’s going through, either. During that period he was a rival,’ Stone said of Weinstein.
‘I never did business with him and didn’t really know him. I’ve heard horror stories on everyone in the business, so I’m not going to comment on gossip. I’ll wait and see, which is the right thing to do.’
