Justin Timberlake Blasted for Working with Woody Allen

Justin Timberlake, who will be performing the halftime show at Super Bowl LII and appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon after the game, was the target of some harsh Twitter words from Dylan Farrow this week. Farrow, the adopted daughter of filmmaker Woody Allen, has accused Allen of sexually abusing her when she was a child, and she slammed Timberlake for working with Allen on the film Wonder Wheel.

Farrow said that Timberlake couldn't be a credible supporter of sexual abuse survivors after having worked with Allen. It's worth noting that the list of actors who worked with Allen after Farrow's allegations were public knowledge is extremely long. The list includes Lady Bird director Greta Gerwig and Harvey Weinstein accuser Mira Sorvino, who won an Oscar for her role in Allen's Mighty Aphrodite.

Twitter tirade! Dylan Farrow saw an open opportunity to blast Justin Timberlake’s support of the #TimesUp movement — and she took it.

While the Man of the Woods singer, 36, innocently tweeted a question about a popular phrase, the 32-year-old adopted daughter of Woody Allen took it as her chance to blast him.

“Random question: Can someone please explain the saying, ‘You just want your cake and to eat it too,’” Timberlake wrote on Tuesday, January 23. “What else am I about to do with a cake??”

It clearly struck a chord with Farrow. “The saying means, for example, you can’t support #TIMESUP and praise sexual predators at the same time,” she responded. “You can’t retain your credibility as an activist (i.e. – retain the cake) and, at the same time, praise a sexual predator (i.e. – eating the cake).”

The criticism comes in the wake of Farrow’s claims that 82-year-old Allen — whose latest movie Wonder Wheel stars Timberlake — sexually molested her as a child.

She initially came forward with her story in an open letter published in the New York Times in February 2014.

Following the outpour of allegations made against high-profile executives and celebrities in the past few months, Farrow spoke out in her first television interview to detail the claims with CBS This Morning’s Gayle King earlier this month.

“He instructed me to lay down on my stomach and play with my brother’s toy train that was set up. He sat behind me in the doorway, and as I played with the toy train, I was sexually assaulted,” she said.
