MEGA
Wilson began the week by pointing an accusing finger at Baron Cohen, who starred with him in the 2016 film, “The Brothers Grimsby.”
Taking to her Instagram Stories early Monday morning, the “Pitch Perfect” star informed her 11.1 million followers:
“I will not be bullied or silenced by high priced lawyers or PR crisis managers. The ‘hole’ I talk about in ONE CHAPTER of my book is: Sacha Baron Cohen.”
The words, written in black letters, are placed against a background of purple books and pens.
Just two days ago, Wilson typed through his Stories, “I wrote about a—hole in my book. Now, said a—hole is trying to threaten me. He’s hired a crisis PR manager and a lawyer.”

Rebel Wilson: ‘I Have a ‘No Holes’ Policy’
Instagram Stories | Wilson’s Rebels
Wilson initially hatched a plan to name and shame a Hollywood figure he had worked with that was unsuccessful in a video posted on Instagram on March 15. Kicking off the clip, the 44-year-old said:
When I first came to Hollywood, people were like, ‘Yeah, I have a no-holes policy which means, like, I don’t work with—holes.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, I mean, that sounds logical, logical.'”
The meaning behind the person’s words was soon realized by the “How to Be Single” performer as he stated “working with a big hole,” and now has the same policy.
“The chapter about the a—hole, is chapter 23. That man is a big hole,” Wilson added. In the caption accompanying the seconds-long clip, he wrote:

Writing His Life Story Didn’t Come Easy For Wilson
MEGA
In previous interviews with US media, Wilson gave an insight into the intimate and often challenging process of writing his life story. Turns out, the secret to fixing it is for him to be isolated. He revealed:
“I’ve been writing the book for the past 18 months because when I write, I have to be completely alone and isolated. It’s a secret thing that I’ve been doing on my own for 18 months. It’s so exciting now that it’s finished.”
However, being isolated isn’t the only thing he’s up to, especially when he realizes that the first chapter of his upcoming memoir has been cut short. To solve the problem, Wilson stated that he tried something different.
“I’m just sitting there by myself as if I’m just telling a story to a friend. I’ve just found my writing style — as if I’m sitting across from my friend, telling you all the deepest secrets of my life, which is kind of scary,” he detailed. Teen Choice Award winner.
