Sylvester Stallone’s daughter Sistine has shared an important message to listeners about safety after a “terrifying” encounter with a stranger on the streets of New York City.
Sistine, 26, revealed on the UNWAXED Podcast that she was walking in the Meatpacking District, which she does on the regular, when a man on a bike starting screaming at her and following her.
Sistine explained that despite being a large crowd as a carnival was on, no one offered to help her and instead she feared for her safety and fled to a nearby Sephora where employees called police.

”I think if you do a path in New York quite often you’re like, ‘I know this path, it’s safe,'” she explained.
”There was this guy on a bike that just started screaming really inappropriate profanities at me, and calling me this and cat-calling me, but I just kept moving. I didn’t even acknowledge it. I just wanted to pretend they’re not there.”
”But he comes up behind me on his bike and puts his hands on me and that’s when I freaked out, and then he started screaming at me, accusing me of being bad words which I’m not going to repeat right now and getting right in my face.”

She said she started “running for her life” and headed to Sephora to get some help.
“The scariest thing was, I was around 50 people and no one did anything. That was crazy as well, to feel alone in a large crowd of people,” she explained.
“I just take off sprinting… He was cutting through the crowd on his bike. Three blocks later I was still running for my life.”
The man soon spotted her in Sephora and yelled at her: “You can’t hide from me b–ch, I will find you. I will get you.”
“I see four cops take him to the back of the store. Terrifying, terrifying,” she said.

Sistine then shared an important message to fans and said they should always be aware of their surroundings, especially with incidents like this taking place often in New York City.
‘I’m really hoping that this reaches all females… don’t have your headphones in and don’t be looking down. It’s scary out there… ask for help and if you are getting harassed by somebody on the street, you don’t owe them anything,” she said.
“Be safe out there.”
Stallone is father to Sophia, 28, Sistine, and Scarlet, 22, sons Sage Stallone and Seargeoh Stallone, 45. Sage died in 2012 from heart disease. He was only 36.
