Harvey Weinstein Flying to Europe Tonight For Sex Addiction Rehab
Harvey Weinstein is boarding a private jet Tuesday night, bound for a rehab center in Europe for sex addiction ... sources connected with the former mogul tell TMZ.
We're told Harvey has decided to take the advice of the people around him and leave immediately. We're told he will enter a live-in facility and will deal both with sex and other behavioral issues.
Our sources say Weinstein is surprisingly calm, considering the PR nightmare engulfing him. As one source put it, "He has his moments where there are bursts, but for the most part he's pretty calm."
We're told Weinstein still believes he can get help, come back and make a fresh start. As a source close to Weinstein put it, "He wants to come back with fresh, new ideas." As we reported, he and his team are in settlement discussions with The Weinstein Co. and the idea of him serving in some outside capacity is still on the table.

President Obama I'm Disgusted by Harvey Weinstein
President Obama has added his name to the list of famous people who are disgusted by the stories that have surfaced about Harvey Weinstein.
The former Prez just said, "Michelle and I have been disgusted by the recent reports about Harvey Weinstein. Any man who demeans and degrades women in such a fashion needs to be condemned and held accountable, regardless of wealth or status."
Obama went on ... "We should celebrate the courage of women who have come forward to tell these painful stories. And we all need to build a culture -- including by empowering our girls and teaching our boys decency and respect -- so we can make such behavior less prevalent in the future."
You'll remember, Malia Obama was an intern at Weinstein's company in January.

Harvey Weinstein Settlement Talks Loom ... Continued Relationship with Co. Possible
Harvey Weinstein is gearing up for settlement talks with the company that fired him, and inside sources say there could still be some form of a relationship between The Weinstein Co. and its namesake.
Sources familiar with the negotiations tell us, both the Board of Directors and Harvey Weinstein himself fully appreciate the numerous unresolved issues after he was 86'd in the wake of the sexual harassment allegations.
As one source put it, "The Board has a problem because The Weinstein Co. IS Harvey Weinstein. Without him, it's nothing." On top of that, there has been no financial settlement between Weinstein and his company ... something we're told is extremely complicated.
Weinstein has lawyered up, and there have already been moves to work out the inevitable settlement. As one source put it, there's a distinct possibility Weinstein could maintain some role -- even if it's on the outside.
Weinstein holds lots of cards in the negotiations ... as we reported, although the Board of Directors claims total surprise, stories about Weinstein and women were well known in Hollywood ... and tolerated by many. A wrongful termination lawsuit looms if they can't strike a settlement, and what comes out during discovery and a trial could seriously damage The Weinstein Co.
The trick for the Company ... is it worse to have a business relationship with Weinstein or risk a lawsuit?

Ben Affleck Harvey Weinstein's Actions 'Completely Unacceptable'
Ben Affleck is condemning Harvey Weinstein -- who helped make him an Oscar winner -- calling his actions "completely unacceptable."
Affleck says reading the allegations against Weinstein made him sick, especially because they'd worked together so closely on "Good Will Hunting" -- the 1997 Miramax release that earned Ben his first Oscar.

Ben Affleck Casey Affleck, how’s your morning boys?
@rosemcgowan
Affleck added in his statement, "We must support those who come forward" and condemn behavior like Weinstein's. He also said having "more women in positions of power" would help.
Speaking of women in power ... Hillary Clinton finally sounded off on Weinstein, who's famously made sizeable donations to her political campaigns.
Hillary said, "I was shocked and appalled by the revelations. The behavior described by women coming forward cannot be tolerated. Their courage and the support of others is critical in helping to stop this kind of behavior."

Massage Envy Sued Woman Claims Masseur Sexually Assaulted Her And She Wasn't His First Victim!!!
Massage Envy kept a male therapist on staff with a history of sexual assaults, and he ended up ruining another woman's life because of it ... according to a new lawsuit.
A married Washington D.C. woman -- who's filed as Jane Doe -- claims she was nearing the end of a 90-minute massage when her masseur placed an eye pillow over her eyes. She says she was undressed, and he then moved the sheet that was covering her pelvic area and "licked her vagina without invitation."
The woman says she was shocked, scared and yanked the sheet back to cover up and confronted the masseur ... who she says dropped to his knees to apologize and begged her not to tell anyone. According to the docs, the woman went to a hospital where they administered a rape kit. She says the masseur was arrested.
The crazy part ... the woman claims the masseur had 2 prior allegations of sexual assault against him -- including at another Massage Envy in Maryland -- but was allowed to keep working. She's suing for $25 million in damages.

Ron Jeremy Calls B.S. On Ric Flair 10K Chicks is Impossible!!
Porn legend Ron Jeremy says there's NO WAY Ric Flair banged more than 10,000 chicks ... telling TMZ Sports, in his opinion, it just ain't possible.
Jeremy knows a little something about ... um, puttin' in work. He's been named #1 on AVN's 50 Top Porn Stars of All Time ... and when we talked to him, he said he ain't buyin' what the Nature Boy is sellin'.
"To overview, I think he's lying."
Jeremy explains why he thinks Naitch is fibbing, saying that number would require a full-time woo-hoo regimen that he doesn't think Flair is humanly capable of.
"It's very difficult to get numbers like that," Jeremy says. "Every second of the day, he'd have to be going like this (as Ron does his world-famous humpin' motion).
Bottom line, believe who you want ... but the expert has spoken.

Ric Flair I Banged 10,000 Women ... Give Or Take
Ric Flair is half the man Wilt Chamberlain claimed to be -- admitting he's slept with roughly 10,000 women during his storied wrestling career.
Nature Boy reportedly confessed about his 5-figure conquest while shooting a "30 for 30" special for ESPN -- a special that's set to air in November.
But apparently Naitch, who's famously referred to his penis as "Space Mountain" for years while asking women if they want a ride ... is now embarrassed about his sex life.
"I wish I hadn't said that because of my grandkids," Flair told People ... insisting, "I only love one now" -- a reference to his fiancee, Wendy Barlow.
FYI, Flair is 68 years old -- so if he started banging at 15 ... we're talking an average of 188 women per year (or 3.6 women per week).
Chamberlain claimed to have slept with 20,000 women.

Farrah Abraham I Show My New Lady Parts ... You Show Me Fab Trips and Prizes!!!
The path to Farrah Abraham's rejuvenated vagina might be well worn, but you can still make an impression on her -- for the cost of a new pair of heels or a trip to Bangkok.
Farrah's created a profile for herself on the porn site, CamSoda -- where she's debuting her post-op vajayjay -- and it includes a wish list of things potential suitors can send her. It's a diverse wish list, but everything on it is expensive as hell:
- trips to Thailand, Greece, Monaco and Brazil
- $200 for a mani/pedi
- $3000 for hair
- Louis Vuitton purse, travel bag and carry-on luggage
- $1000 shopping spree
- size 9 heels
We're guessing the heels better be Louboutins or bust. The list might sound greedy, but in fairness -- porn stars commonly do this online.
Farrah makes her adult camming debut Wednesday evening, so who knows what will be filled ... from the list by morning.

Farrah scored nearly a million bucks for her sex tape with James Deen back in 2013. The cam show gig won't pay that much, but she is getting a slice of CamSoda's back end. Plus, she's riding solo this time.
