It appears that Smallville actress Allison Mack tried to recruit Emma Watson for her alleged sex cult

Essentially, NXIVM masqueraded as a 'self-help' programme but in reality, it was a pyramid scheme in which some recruits were exploited for sex and manual labour, prosecutors alleged in court filings. Mack pleaded not guilty to the charges and a judge has approved the release of the actress on a $5 million bond. Mack has now left jail but she will be under house arrest in California and must wear an electronic monitoring device. In light of this news, Insider has unearthed old tweets which show Mack reaching out to Emma Watson, star of the Harry Potter films, to tell her about an  “amazing women’s movement” that she wanted to speak to the actress about, although she never mentioned NXIVM by name in her tweets. “I’d love to chat if you’re open,” Mack tweeted to Watson in January 2016. A month later, she sent Watson another message which said: “I participate in a unique human development and women’s movement I’d love to tell you about. As a fellow actress, I can relate so well to your vision and what you want to see in the world. I think we could work together. Let me know if you’re willing to chat.” Watson never responded to any of these messages. https://twitter.com/allisonmack/status/691113581228728321 https://twitter.com/allisonmack/status/700790212813651968 https://twitter.com/allisonmack/status/700790438869884928 Mack also messaged the singer Kelly Clarkson although that communication is vaguer. https://twitter.com/allisonmack/status/358639409538662403 If found guilty of these charges, Mack could be imprisoned for the rest of her life. The court proceedings against Mack are likely to begin on May 3.
