| After Harvey Weinstein, Canadian producer hit by sexual misconduct allegations |
| 2017-10-20 |
| [DAWN] La Belle France's answer to "America's Got Talent" is being taken off air after the show's linchpin, Canadian entertainment figure Gilbert Rozon, was hit by allegations of sexual misconduct involving nine different women. Rozon, who also founded Montreal's prominent "Just For Laughs" comedy festival, is a jury member on "La Belle France Has Incredible Talent," whose 12th season had been due to premiere October 26 until broadcaster M6 pulled the plug on Thursday. Nine women went public Wednesday with allegations of sexual misconduct by Rozon, triggering a shockwave in Quebec hard on the heels of the revelations targeting Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced movie mogul accused by dozens of actresses of sexual harassment, assault and rape. |
