Harvey Weinstein threw a Super Bowl party hours before he appeared to fall asleep in court during his rape trial.
The disgraced film exec looked like he dozed off several times on Monday during the testimony of former actor Jessica Mann, who cried so uncontrollably during cross-examination that the judge ended her appearance for the day.
We’re told Weinstein held a party Sunday night at the Manhattan digs where he’s staying, during which he bemoaned the #MeToo movement and was overheard telling one unnamed record executive that it had “gone too far.”
Another source told us that there were about 60 people at the party, “including a lot of women!”
One source sniffed of the bash, “No wonder Harvey was so worn out.” A spokesperson for Weinstein confirmed: “Harvey held a small get-together to say thank you. It was his team of lawyers, both current and some previous, his personal attorney and two friends.”
The rep added, “Harvey has stated that he encourages the positive things that have come from the [#MeToo] movement.”
Weinstein used to have a tradition at the Sundance Film Festival of hosting NFL playoff screenings at a hotel, calling the watch parties the Weinstein Sundance Bowl. Mann, the fifth accuser to take the stand at Weinstein’s NYC trial, has accused him of forcing oral sex on her and raping her in a hotel room.
At least 100 women have accused Weinstein of sexual assault or harassment, which he’s denied. Lauren Marie Young testified Wednesday that Weinstein attacked her in 2013 after she moved to LA from New York to break into the acting industry.
Weinstein griped to The Post in December that he should be remembered for doing more professionally for women than anyone in history — rather than the slew of sickening accusations against him. He said bitterly, “My work has been forgotten.’’
