Actress Rebel Wilson has made startling allegations, asserting that she is facing threats from a prominent Hollywood figure she has written about in her forthcoming book.
The star of Pitch Perfect recently disclosed that she devotes an entire chapter in her upcoming book, Rebel Rising, to recounting her experiences with an individual she describes as an “a**hole” whom she encountered early in her Hollywood journey.
In a series of Instagram stories, Wilson revealed that this individual is now attempting to take legal action against her. She wrote, “I wrote about an ahole in my book. Now, said ahole is trying to threaten me.” Wilson further detailed that the individual has enlisted the services of crisis management experts and legal representatives in an apparent effort to prevent negative publicity surrounding the book.

I mean that sounds sensible, logical.’ Then it really sunk in what they were meaning by that: Older people in the industry….chapter on said ahole is Chapter 23. That guy was a massive ahole.”
