Why Oscar's Elite DIY Party Snubbed Hollywood Mogul: Graydon Carter's Unveiling

Former Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter unveils why Harvey Weinstein was banned from the Oscars party for misconduct and disrespect towards staff, as detailed in his book 'When the Going Was Good.' This exclusion highlights the broader pattern of Weinstein's misconduct that triggered the #MeToo movement.

Graydon Carter, former Vanity Fair editor, reveals in his forthcoming book, 'When the Going Was Good,' the reason behind the permanent exclusion of Harvey Weinstein from the magazine's exclusive Oscars party.

Weinstein, once a regular attendee, faced a lifetime ban due to his consistently rude and disrespectful behavior towards event staff, according to Carter's revelations to Deadline. The disgraced film producer was notorious for arriving with excess guests and causing disruption, a behavior Carter could not tolerate.

While speculation suggested alcohol might have fueled his actions, Carter dismissed this, emphasizing that Weinstein's misconduct was innate. The banishment of Weinstein from the Oscars celebration echoes the broader pattern of accusations and convictions against him that ultimately sparked the #MeToo movement, marking his descent in Hollywood.
