Weinstein's Ex-Driver Claims Sex Psycho Threatened To Kill Him Over Hooker Bust-Up
Disgraced Harvey Weinstein howled at his ex-chauffeur he would hire Russian mafia hitmen to rape and kill him after two hookers failed to show up for an orgy, the former driver claims.
The bloated former film chief also allegedly had a psychopathic appetite for “fresh flesh” and would leave young girls on the streets weeping and barefoot after seedy backseat sex sessions in his car as he cruised Cannes for vulnerable girls and aspiring actresses and models.
Ex-driver Mickaël Chemloul revealed new gut-churning secrets about the boss he called “Le Porc” (“The Pig”) as Weinstein faces a new allegation he sexually assaulted a girl aged 16 – his youngest alleged victim.
Mickaël, 57, has just published his tell-all book on driving sex-crazed Weinstein, called Le Démon De La Croisette – which translates as Monster From The Croisette.
It has only been released in his native France and is yet to be translated into other languages.
But RadarOnline.com can reveal it alleges Weinstein used “manipulation, threats, blackmail and violence” to get his way in every walk of life.
It also tells how Mickaël was so sickened by Weinstein’s behavior – and at his own guilt for not stopping it – he was left bed-ridden with depression for four months after getting out of the job.
In new interviews to promote the book, the driver said he began writing it as a work of fiction as a form of “therapy” while still employed by Weinstein.
He told French newspaper l’Express about starting the book in 2013 – four years before the Weinstein sex scandal rocked Hollywood – “I first wrote a fiction about what I had lived, taking care not to give names, because Harvey Weinstein was still very influential.
“I ended up finishing my work as a driver and continued writing. On October 5, 2017, when the news broke, I started again, to tell my story unvarnished.
“I eradicated the evil that was in me.”
Mickaël also told French paper Le Journal Du Dimanche he was pushed to write the book by his wife of 26 years and his psychiatrist who he’d been seeing to try and “cure” him of the stress of working for Weinstein.
He drove the sex-crazed movie boss from 2008 to 2013 until the job got too much and he had an explosive row with Weinstein – during which he says the ex-Miramax producer hit him and threatened to have him murdered.
Mickaël filed a complaint against Weinstein in 2013 over the incident, which was later dismissed.
The ex-driver added to l’Express: “He had already shown signs of violence towards me a year ago, pretending to raise a hand on me.
“In 2013, however, because he held me responsible for the absence of two call girls at an appointment, he hit me violently – while I was driving.
“He was a monster, he hit me in the ribs, shattered my glasses, like a boxer in the ring. My upbringing prevented me from hitting him.
“He also threatened me, told me that the Russian mafia would come to kill me, and that nobody would know where my body is. I was very worried.”
He added to Le Journal Du Dimanche about Weinstein’s threat he would be raped before being murdered: “He threatened: ‘The mafia will come to f**k you’.
Mickaël – who quit driving Weinstein after the row – says the bust-up came after he failed to track down two East European hookers Weinstein was gagging to bed.
Weinstein had been at a launch party at VIP hangout Club 55 in Saint-Tropez, and afterwards handed his driver a note with two phone numbers.
Mickaël was ordered to call and get their address and bring them to a hotel – but when he arrived to pick them up they weren’t there.
The driver said fuming Weinstein then hit him while he was driving and crushed his $1,900 shades in his fist.
The incident was the breaking point for Mickaël who says he was burnt out with guilt at seeing a parade of girls weeping after romps with Weinstein in the back of his Mercedes S-Class.
Algerian-born Mickaël admitted he agreed to drive Weinstein despite hearing rumors from other drivers he was a sex predator who loved young women.
He admitted to l’Express: “But I ended up accepting the proposal. I was very happy to find myself driving for him, kind of a living God of the cinema. I did not really expect the worst – I discovered the worst little by little.
“I discovered his excesses after three years. I realized he was addicted to sex. He needed fresh flesh – he had irrepressible impulses. So there was a parade of call girls and actresses.
“I watched them come out of Weinstein’s home in tears, barefoot, in a deplorable state.
“Others would give him blowjobs in the back of the limousine.
“When I saw these girls crying, I gave them a handkerchief and a bottle of water.
“But when you work in a limo service company, you’re also bound by a kind of professional secrecy, and I was stuck by the talent of Harvey Weinstein – the world was prostrating at his feet.
“I was also very dependent on the money paid by the Harvey Weinstein Company, which accounted for 70 percent of my income.
“But I really want to point out that at no time have I been an accomplice to Harvey Weinstein.
“It hurts me when I read or hear that. Before me, there were 20 drivers.
“After my experience with Harvey Weinstein, I stayed deep in my bed for four months.
“The #MeToo movement relieved me.”
Mickaël previously alleged to Britain’s The Sun On Sunday newspaper how Weinstein, 66, had sex with a woman in the back of his car as she begged him: “Don’t hurt me” – before taking her to the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc and romping with her again while his then-pregnant wife Georgina Chapman slept in a nearby room.
According to The Sun On Sunday article, the sleazy filmmaker allegedly kept an emergency stash of condoms and Viagra in his Mercedes’ glove compartment, trembled with excitement when he drove past pretty girls and stuffed himself with Viagra Coke, M&Ms to maintain his stamina at orgies.
Despite admitting he was left so traumatized by working for Weinstein he needed therapy and medication, Mickaël told Le Journal Du Dimanche he would see the fallen mogul again and forgive him – but only if it was a meeting in jail.
Weinstein may face life in jail after being indicted in July under some of the most serious sexual offenses in New York’s penal law – including two counts of Predatory Sexual Assault.
This week, a tenth woman was added to a group lawsuit accusing Weinstein of sexual assault – who claims she was 16 when he first attacked her.
The unnamed aspiring actress says she met the producer in 2002.
Court papers filed in Manhattan allege the Hollywood mogul “aggressively and threateningly” demanded sex days later at his Soho apartment.
Lawyers claim she then endured nearly a decade of sexual harassment and emotional abuse at his hands.
Weinstein’s legal team dismissed the “preposterous” allegation, saying it will be shown to be false.
