Steve Wynn: Dozens Accuse Las Vegas Mogul of Sexual Misconduct
Of the various famous men accused of being sex monsters in recent months, many have been more famous but arguably none have been as influential as Steve Wynn.
He’s a billionaire. He’s an outspoken conservative and the finance chair for the Republican National Committee. He’s a Las Vegas casino mogul.
And, according to dozens of accusers, his pattern of alleged sexual misconduct goes back for decades.
The Wall Street Journal reports that billionaire Steve Wynn has engaged in behaviors for years and years that create a working culture of sexual harassment.
According to dozens of current and former employees of Wynn Resorts, Steve Wynn’s demands for sex from female employees came under the guise of manicures, makeup applications, and massages that were performed privately in his offices.
It is there that these numerous sources say that Steve Wynn would exert pressure upon these women to engage in sex acts at his behest.
The Wall Street Journal describes employees conspiring to invent fake appointments that various female coworkers might have so that they could avoid spending time alone in their CEO’s office.
One woman recounted her story in which she alleges that Wynn forced her to have sex.
While working as a manicurist at Wynn’s flagship casino in 2005, she says that Wynn pressured her to remove her clothing.
She says that he then relentlessly pressured her to lie naked on the massage table in his office.
The Wall Street Journal spoke to coworkers of hers who remember her returning to where they were, looking visibly shaken and upset, immediately after the alleged incident.
That sounds like a horrifying abuse of power.
The Wall Street Journal says that they were the ones who reached out to employees, not the other way around.
They spoke to over 150 current and former employees in order to hear personal accounts and seek confirmation from others. We can only guess which stories they may have heard but were unable to confirm.
Citing Steve Wynn’s powerful influence throughout the Las Vegas strip, most of the employees who spoke were hesitant to speak on the record, worrying that it could hurt their careers.
At least one previous alleged incident with a manicurist led to a lawsuit and payout of $ 7.5 million.
All in all, the culture described by the report is one in which some female employees would hide in the bathroom if they knew that Steve Wynn was in the building.
In response to these allegations, Wynn’s company issued a lengthy statement.
Interestingly, both he and his company seem to believe that this report is part of a conspiracy by his two-time ex-wife, Elain Wynn (1963-1986, 1991-2010).
“The recent allegations about Mr. Wynn reflect allegations made in court hearings by Mr. Wynn’s ex-wife, Elaine Wynn.”
That’s part of a statement by Wynn Resorts, which also says:
“It is clear that Mr. Wynn’s ex-wife has sought to use a negative public relations campaign to achieve what she has been unable to do in the courtroom: tarnish the reputation of Mr. Wynn in an attempt to pressure a revised divorce settlement from him.”
The statement also iterates that Wynn Resorts is committed to a safe workplace.
Additionally, Wynn himself says that “the idea that I ever assaulted any woman is preposterous.”
We don’t know what Steve Wynn’s wife Andrea Wynn (formerly Andrea Hissom) thinks of all of this, but we do know what stockholders think.
Shares in Wynn Resorts fell by 5% … and then it was 8% … and then 9%.
The presentation of these accusations as a smear campaign is curious, as one would imagine that it would require enlisting over 150 accomplices and also hoodwinking The Wall Street Journal, a notoriously conservative news outlet that one would imagine would take extra care when accusing one of the nation’s wealthiest Republicans.
It is difficult to gauge what the fallout from this will be for Wynn, professionally. Las Vegas is not Hollywood.
Perhaps only time will tell if he’ll be ousted from any of his many, many business and political interests.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 8 Episode 2 Recap: Diva Las Vegas
On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 8 Episode 2, Teddi Jo Mellencamp learned the hard way that not all of her cast members were going to be welcoming her into the group with open arms.
We get it, it’s difficult being joining a new clique of friends, but Teddi’s nerves are getting the best of her, and she’s not exactly showing herself in the best light thus far.
When the ladies wanted to gamble, she did not seem impressed by it, and it certainly makes one wonder why she agreed to join the show if she was not prepared to take part in all the activities.
Maybe she’s been living under a rock, or she just needed a quick buck and signed up without a second thought, but we’re not seeing the real Teddi, and it seems like it’s going to take time for that to shine on through.
The sad thing is, viewers make decisions early on about new cast additions, and Teddi runs the risk falling into the sidelines. You know something’s wrong when Adrienne Maloof returned for two scenes and had a more prominent presence than Teddi.
The ladies were still in Las Vegas, and it became apparent that Erika is always going to be a tough cookie to crumble. Her icy demeanor has landed her in hot water with the ladies in the past.
For the most part, she changed things up and reacted well to Lisa Vanderpump telling her that friendship is a two-way street, but she was not that nice to Teddi in the closing moments of the episode.
Teddi was trying to find out some information about Erika because she wanted to get to know her, but in true Erika fashion, she iced her out and treated her like crap.
This did pave the way for Erika to drop a stunning revelation on the ladies: She met her father for the first time when she was 18 years old.
“It was like meeting a stranger. I shook his hand,” she said, and the others quickly speculated that it could be the cause of her not letting people into her life.
“I don’t have this relationship, but I have a lot of other fabulous relationships,” Erika said to the camera.
Elsewhere, Dorit and Lisa Rinna finally had it out over all the comments they made about one another. It was a very one-sided debate, and Rinna was in the hot seat.
Dorit denied that PK made several comments about Rinna, and said that it was all Rinna’s doing. Thankfully, Bravo was on tap with flashbacks of PK saying all of the horrid stuff about the soap star.
Rinna ultimately had to be the bigger person and take all the blame.
“I don’t want to feel like I am in danger,” Dorit said at the start of the slow Ferris wheel ride. “Your words and your actions are so low that they can really affect people’s lives.”
Ultimately, the warring women put the past behind them and decided it was time to stop fighting.
But then Kyle Richards had to ruin all of it by telling Lisa R about Harry telling her that Kim needed to be kicked out of the group for good.
Lisa already knew about it, and the ladies shrugged it off. Could this be the season of the women playing nice with one another?
The show is at its best when they are fighting, so we hope not!
What did you think of the developments?
Sound off below.
