Ed Westwick says he does not know the woman who is"

Ed Westwick says he does not know the woman who is accusing him of rape. "I do not know this woman. I have never forced myself in any manner, on any woman. I certainly have never committed rape," he tweeted this morning.

Actress Kristina Cohen accused Westwick, 30, of raping her three years ago at his home. She claims she was visiting Westwick with her boyfriend at the time, a producer, when the attack occurred. "I wanted to leave when Ed suggested 'we should all f***.' But the producer didn't want to make Ed feel awkward by leaving. Ed insisted we stay for dinner. I said I was tired and wanted to leave, trying to get out of what was already an uncomfortable situation. Ed suggested I nap in the guest bedroom. The producer said we would stay for just another 20 more minutes to smooth things over, and then we could leave," Cohen claims. "So I went and laid down in the guest room where I eventually fell asleep. I was woken up abruptly by Ed on top of me, his fingers entering my body. I told him to stop, but he was strong. I fought him off as hard as I could but he grabbed my face in his hands, shaking me, telling me he wanted to f*** me. I was paralyzed, terrified. I couldn't speak, I could no longer move. He held me down and raped me."
