In March 2019, leaked text messages showed that Kevin Tsujihara had promised auditions and acting jobs to Kirk in return for sex, facilitated by her then-friend, businessman James Packer, in September 2013. WarnerMedia was investigating the allegations. [23] In September 2020, her lawyers filed a petition in the Los Angeles Superior Court to vacate a gag order that has kept her mostly silent amid the years-long battle. The petition paints a picture of Tsujihara engaging in nonconsensual sex. [24] The Hollywood Reporter also revealed information about how Tsujihara and former NBCUniversal Vice-chairman Ronald Meyer colluded to cover up the real nature of their relationships with Kirk, reached settlement and court cases.
