Gigi Hadid was called as a juror Monday in the trial of disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein (open in new tab), and according to Variety (open in new tab), Hadid was "seen in the hallway entering the courtroom" and then leaving the courtroom around noon. She was seen leaving the courtroom around noon. This means that she may serve as a juror in Weinstein's trial.

Hadid was one of 120 jurors summoned to potentially serve on Weinstein's trial; according to Variety, Hadid told Judge James Burke that she had met Weinstein. When Burke asked if she could remain impartial during the trial, the model replied, "Yes, I can." She also told Judge Burke that she knew Salma Hayek, according to Variety.

Trigger warning: disturbing details about sexual assault ahead.In 2017, Hayek came forward with details of sexual harassment and abusive behavior from Weinstein on the set of Frida. His persuasion tactics ranged from sweet talk to that one time he uttered the dreaded words 'I'll kill you, don't think I can't kill you' in a fit of rage," Hayek wrote in an op-ed in the New York Times (opens in new tab).

Weinstein's Manhattan sexual assault trial (opens in new tab) began last week, more than two years after The New York Times and The New Yorker published explosive reports detailing allegations of sexual harassment, assault, and rape. He has been accused of misconduct by more than 100 women, including Hadid's friend Cara Delevingne. She claims Weinstein tried to kiss her at the hotel.

In an October 2017 Instagram post (opens in new tab), Delevigne said Weinstein "bragged about all the actresses he slept with and how he made their careers and talked about other inappropriate things of a sexual nature. He then invited me to his room. I immediately declined and asked his assistant if my car was outside. She told me that my car was not outside and that I should go to his room because he would not be here for a while. At that moment I felt very helpless and scared, but I did not want to act that way, hoping I was wrong about the situation."

When we arrived, Delevigne continued in her post (open in new tab), "I was relieved that there was another woman in his room and immediately I felt safe. He asked for a kiss from us and she started to ask something in his direction. I quickly got up and asked him if he knew I could sing. I thought it would make the place feel better, more professional, and more like an audition if I sang ....... After I finished singing, I told him again that I had to leave. He walked me to the door, stood in front of it and tried to kiss me on the lips"

.

Delevigne stopped him and managed to leave the room." I was still getting movie roles and I kept thinking that he had given me the part because of that incident. Since then I felt awful that I did the movie," she writes (opens in new tab). 'I felt unworthy of the role. I didn't want to hurt his family. I felt guilty, like I had done something wrong. I also felt horrified that this had happened to so many women I knew and no one had said anything out of fear."[15

Weinstein faces five felony charges in Manhattan. He has pleaded not guilty and is not expected to testify. Instead, his defense will focus on "undermining the woman's testimony and arguing that the alleged incident was consensual." If convicted, Weinstein faces life in prison.
