Two women whose sexual assault accusations against Harvey Weinstein sparked the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements say they were not invited to the Golden Globes Awards on Sunday night.

"Guess I am not powerful or Hollywood enough," Italian actress Asia Argento tweeted Monday, adding in a second post: "Victims aren't glamorous enough."

I can only speak for myself but not only I wasn’t invited to the #GoldenGlobes: nobody asked my opinion about #TIMESUP or to sign the letter. I support @TIMESUPNOW even though I was excluded from it. Guess I am not POWERFUL or HOLLYWOOD enough. Proud to work behind the scenes✊️ https://t.co/Wemz2qd7gw

It would have been too much of a downer... an embarrassment. Victims aren’t glamorous enough.

Argento hailed Rose McGowan on Sunday as "the first one who broke the silence."

No one should forget that you were the first one who broke the silence. Anyone who tries to diminish your work is a troll and an enemy of the movement. You gave me the courage to speak out. I am on your side until I die.

McGowan replied she has "no time for Hollywood fakery" and returned the love.

And not one of those fancy people wearing black to honor our rapes would have lifted a finger had it not been so. I have no time for Hollywood fakery, but you I love, .@AsiaArgento #RoseArmy https://t.co/9e0938y5sI

Rosanna Arquette, who accused Weinstein of sexual misconduct, also took to Twitter to report neither she, nor Annabella Sciorra, Daryl Hannah, or Mira Sorvino were invited to the gala either.

No we weren’t invited. Annabella ,Daryl ,Mira none of us were .

Her sister, Oscar winner Patricia Arquette called it "not cool" in a tweet:

That's not cool-All of you should have been included.I wasn't asked either but who cares! It's great they are doing it & we will too!

Sorvino — who accused Weinstein of harassing her, and of blacklisting her for rejecting him — thanked Patricia Arquette and Sciorra for their activism.

Love you dear heart @PattyArquette , and all my sisters in this fight! Special shout out to my shining friend @AnnabellSciorra whose continued bravery and honesty is contagious and inspiring https://t.co/g68bFc5y6N
