Les Moonves wasn’t only one escaping scandal on St. Barts

Ousted CBS chief Les Moonves wasn’t the only disgraced mogul soaking up the rays on a St. Barts megayacht over New Year’s.

He was joined by two fellow execs shaded by accusations of sexual misconduct: Hollywood filmmaker Brett Ratner and Silicon Valley investor Shervin Pishevar.

Page Six exclusively revealed on Wednesday that Moonves had secretly jetted to the tony Caribbean island with wife Julie Chen to join fellow entertainment mogul David Geffen on his $590 million, 454-foot yacht, Rising Sun.

Moonves decided to ring in 2019 mogul style, even after he allegedly tried to mislead CBS by hiding evidence of his sexual misconduct, which led the company to deny him his $120 million payout.

He flew out of Los Angeles on a private jet with his longtime friend Ron Meyer, vice chairman of NBCUniversal, who is not involved in any scandal.

The swanky trip also served as a convenient way for Chen to stay out of sight as her replacement on “The Talk,” Carrie Ann Inaba, was confirmed.

Also cruising with the megarich and partying on the island was disgraced director-producer Ratner, who has been accused by several women, including actress Olivia Munn, of sexual misbehavior, including performing sexual acts in front of them and forcing one to perform oral sex on him.

He has denied all of the accusations.

Those allegations did lead Warner Bros. to cut ties with Ratner and end its $450 million co-financing deal with his company, RatPac-Dune Entertainment.

However, Ratner has maintained his relationship with powerful pals such as his RatPac cronies, Australian businessman James Packer and billionaire Len Blavatnik — both of whom parked their yachts off St. Barts for the New Year’s festivities.

Early Uber investor Pishevar also chartered a gleaming yacht to the island, and parked it next to Geffen’s Rising Sun.

Billionaire Pishevar was ousted from his venture capital firm Sherpa over sexual harassment allegations, which he denied.
