The Hollywood purge continue. And this one is definitely a star I really do admire. What the hell is wrong with Hollywood.

There has been rumors going on for years in regards to Kevin Spacey and sexual harassment. Its a shame that it seems to be true.

Damn. I always thought Kevin liked younger dudes, like in their 20s, but going after a 14 year old is messed up if it's true.

I really, really, really hope this isn't a bandwagon effect.

But all said and done, this does feel genuine. Kevin Spacey has a pretty bad reputation among his costars for being both a dick and pretty creepy. :<

Spacey has been an open secret. Why are we pretending this has been a secret?

Gawker wrote about it back in 2015 and even then it was pretty open http://defamer.gawker.com/people-keep-telling-us-about-kevin-spacey-s-aggressive-1686507320


I have a friend who used to work for one of the big studios, and she had the misfortune to work on a Spacey film once. He repeatedly propositioned one of the PAs so relentlessly that they actually had to reassign the kid to another project, and then Spacey just started in on someone else. She said they eventually just made sure any "underling" position that came into contact with Spacey was staffed by a woman or an older guy—he just basically assumed he was entitled to young, decent-looking guy he had any power over on the set, straight or gay.

Another to add to the list—my friend's uncle works on the production team of House of Cards in D.C., and told my friend recently that Spacey regularly solicits the young (early 20s), male crew members for sex in his trailer. Specifically, the uncle explained to my friend that Spacey "demands" it...whatever that means.

Can we just get the damn name of who abused Corey Haim and Corey Feldman? Stop caring about legal issues - just do it. Please. Once they're down, everybody else will go down.

Seems like one of those "not a shocker" actions in hindsight. Spacey always seemed like a creepy fucker.

God damn it, why are all of these well liked celebs turning out to be dodgy behind closed doors. Disappointing.

After pretty much my whole childhood heroes, icons and all WWF being outed as scum I mentally prepared for half of Hollywood going down when Corey Feldman finally talks.

If Rapp's account is to be believed, that's a good deal more than just an attempt at seduction. It would appear that Spacey was making a borderline attempt to rape him.

Can't speak to any of his older allegations but when I worked at an upscale gentlemen's club back in 09 he came in with John stamos (who would always come in) and he was vicious to one of the girls that asked him if he wanted a lap dance. She had no idea who he was but she walked away crying. I was so very disappointed because at that point I was still a huge fan of his

Okay. I'mma stop you right there. Gawker is, always has been, full of utter horse manure. They were TMZ 2. They lost ALL credibility a very long time ago, so any "anonymous sources" they receive would be their "journalists" writing what they were paid to do: Write horseshit.

So with that, let's focus on the here and now. Because this news doesn't read like bullshit from a bullshit source.

Guys, Hollywood and New York are fucking bad. Get even tangentially close to the entertainment industry in these cities and you start hearing things

Well you know there is probably going to be some people shooting blanks in this modern situation. I'm intrigued to know if Spacey was a molester. Unfortunately, if true, then he was likely molested in Hollywood himself... though that's a very far reaching assumption
