Following Affleck's statement about producer Harvey Weinstein's allege history of sexual assault in which Affleck said that Weinstein's behavior "made me sick," one Twitter user said that he "should've just kept quiet.

Another user's response to the tweet put a spotlight on an alleged moment from Affleck's past.

"He also grabbed Hilarie Burton's breasts on TRL once," the user tweeted. "Everyone forgot though."

Burton started her career off as a MTV VJ, where she interviewed a ton of Hollywood's most famous faces alongside fellow future stars like Vanessa Lachey and LaLa Anthony.

Hours later, Burton chimed in: "I didn't forget."

Burton's reveal came after actress Rose McGowan, who was one of the women who came forward claiming that Weinstein had sexually harassed her, also called out Affleck over his statement.

"Ben Affleck f--k off," she tweeted.

"@benaffleck 'GODDAMNIT! I TOLD HIM TO STOP DOING THAT' you said that to my face," she added in another tweet. "The press [conference] I was made to go after assault. You lie."

McGowan is just one of the many women who have come forward with allegations of sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape against Weinstein, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, Mira Sorvino and Ashley Judd. In the fallout from the bombshell claims, Weinstein has been fired from The Weinstein Company, been left by his wife and has reportedly jetted off to Europe to seek counseling for sex addiction.

"I acted inappropriately toward Ms. Burton and I sincerely apologize," he wrote.
