The number of women accusing Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick of rape now stands at two. Aurélie Wynn, a former actress who People reports used the name Aurelie Marie Cao, posted her allegations on Facebook Wednesday. "I said no and he pushed me face down and was powerless under his weight," she wrote of the alleged July 2014 incident. "I was wearing a one piece bathing suit that he ripped." She also wrote that she told her boyfriend at the time, Glee actor/the prison-bound Mark Salling, what happened, and that "he pretended not to know [Westwick], then blamed me for it and broke it off with me." Westwick denied the allegations on Twitter, calling them "provably untrue," and says he is cooperating with authorities to clear his name.

- The allegation comes via the National Enquirer and involves an alleged victim who is no longer alive to confirm or refute the claim. But Charlie Sheen is addressing it, albeit briefly. "Charlie Sheen categorically denies these allegations," was all a rep had to say to the Hollywood Reporter regarding the allegations that the actor, at age 19, sexually assaulted a 13-year-old Corey Haim while the two filmed Lucas in 1986. The Enquirer sourced its story to Dominick Brascia, an actor and friend of Haim's.
