Rose McGowan shared a cryptic tweet not long after Harvey Weinstein was accused of sexually harassing multiple female employees and movie stars.

'Anyone who does business with __ is complicit. And deep down you know you are even dirtier. Cleanse yourselves,' McGowan tweeted Thursday afternoon.

The tweet came shortly after The New York Times claimed that Weinstein, who is one of Hollywood's most celebrated studio heads, paid $100,000 to McGowan for an unknown incident shortly after she filmed her breakthrough role in the film 'Scream.'

Rose McGowan (left, in 2015) shared a cryptic tweet not long after Harvey Weinstein (pictured on Thursday night) was accused of sexually harassing multiple female employees and movie stars.

McGowan, who was named in the NYT story as having settled a sexual harassment suit against Weinstein took to social media after it was released, but did not name any names

McGowan also wrote on Twitter: 'Women fight on. And to the men out there, stand up. We need you as allies. #bebrave'

That settlement is one of eight that Weinstein has reportedly paid out over the past 30 years, with Italian model Ambra Battilana also getting an undisclosed sum in 2015 after accusing the Hollywood executive of groping her and putting his hand under her skirt.

McGowan would not comment to the Times about her experience, but has been very vocal about the incidents of harassment and assault she experienced in her early years.

She has never named the perpetrators of these acts.

The incident between McGowan and Weinstein allegedly occurred in a hotel room at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival.

The tweet came shortly after The New York Times claimed that Weinstein (pictured leaving his NYC office on Thursday), paid $100,000 to McGowan for an unknown incident shortly after she filmed her breakthrough role in the film 'Scream'

That settlement is one of eight that Weinstein has reportedly paid out over the past 30 years. Weinstein was seen Thursday night leaving out the back entrance to his office in New York

She was 23 at that time.

McGowan did take to social media after the report was released however, writing: 'Women fight on. And to the men out there, stand up. We need you as allies. #bebrave'.

On Thursday, McGowan also engaged in a Twitter discussion with actress Asia Argento, known for her roles in films such as 'XXX' and 'Marie Antoinette.'

'I want to buy the movie rights,' wrote McGowan soon after it was revealed that Weinstein would be the subject of two bombshell exposes, though she did not say she was directly referring to that report.

'I own the movie rights,' replied Argento, who then added: 'It's gonna be the best movie of the last 20 years.'

McGowan also tweeted this not long after the Times story was published

She also got into a jokey talk with actress and director Asia Argento, best known for her roles in xXx and Marie Antoinette

McGowan responded to that by stating: 'We're gonna lobby for so many Oscars.'

The Times report also claimed that Weinstein once asked Ashley Judd if she would like to watch him shower during a meeting in his room at the Peninsula Beverly Hills.

But Weinstein denies parts of Judd's story, part of the reason he has chose to sue the Time according to a statement from his attorney Charles Harder.

'The New York Times published today a story that is saturated with false and defamatory statements about Harvey Weinstein,' said Harder in a statement.

'It relies on mostly hearsay accounts and a faulty report, apparently stolen from an employee personnel file, which has been debunked by 9 different eyewitnesses.'

Harder went on to say: 'We sent the Times the facts and evidence, but they ignored it and rushed to publish. We are preparing the lawsuit now. All proceeds will be donated to women's organizations.'
