A former Kiwi model has claimed she was asked for a massage and chased into a bathroom by a naked Hollywood movie mogul.

Christchurch-born model Zoe Brock, 43, has detailed her encounter with producer Harvey Weinstein 20 years ago.

She explained to Sarah, Sam and Toni how she was "frozen" with fear when a "naked" Harvey "asked [her] to give [him] a massage." 

Weinstein, an Oscar-winning producer, was fired in the fallout after facing a raft of sexual harassment allegations dating back decades. The scandal has seen his lawyer and several board members of his film company quit in recent days as allegations continue to surface against him.

In a blog post Zoe outlined the "terrifying" experience in 1997, claiming she was tricked into a hotel room with the famous mogul.

Her allegations are among multiple sexual harassment complaints against movie mogul made public last week.

They include Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, Asia Argento, Rose McGowan, Ashley Judd, Rosanna Arquette and Mira Sorvino who claim they were sexually harassed by Weinstein.
