This will kill his career if this is true but in all actuality, it probably is true. Hollywood is a cesspool of people in positions like Singer who use their power and influence exploiting kids to sex and drugs for thei own debauchery. Even Shirley Temple had some pervert/producer expose himself to her when she was 11. That was about 75 years ago.
Sounds like a case of blackmail for financial gain. This guy claims when he was 17 years old back in 1998 was forcibly seduced by Singer? Why did it take him so long to come forward? Because he was waiting for Singer to become successful? Also, the age of consent in HI is 16.

Maybe he has been dealing with the pain all those years and has built the courage to exploit this. Kind of like the boys that were molested by Sandusky.
A man who claims he was sexually abused by "X-Men" franchise director Bryan Singer said Thursday that he reported the molestation to authorities at the time, and he does not know why charges were never pursued.
With his voice occasionally wavering, Michael Egan III described abuse he said began when he was 15 years old at the hands of Singer and others. He told of being plied with drugs and promises of Hollywood fame while also enduring threats and sexual abuse in Hawaii and Los Angeles over several years.
There is a lot of power in Hollywood so sweeping this under the rug and doesn't surprise me. Child star Corey Feldman exposed this sort of thing happening a few years ago.
I hope this not true, but......SoCal was my sales territory for a number of years, and I always heard rumors from customers about the endemic predatory child molestations of certain Hollywood elites. Now, rumors do not equal truth and I acknowledge that, but this oddly didn't surprise me. However, I do like Bryan Singer's movies and hope this is untrue.
Marc Collins-Rector, founder of Digital Entertainment Network was the owner of the house in Encinio, CA where much of the abuse was said to take place. Michael Egan was one of a number of boys who sued Rector years ago and accused him of abuse. Rector was found guilty of transporting minors across state lines for sex. Prior to his conviction he fled to Spain after resigning from his company, along with his boyfriend. USATODAY.com - Ex-DEN executive admits transporting minors for sex
I'm going to watch the program to see what he has to say.
Of course there's only so much he CAN actually divulge because there's an unspoken code of "honor" that you never speak out publicly about anyone in the industry if you're "in" the industry.
Like the old saying goes... "you'll never work in this town again"...
There are others who have made the same claims as he has.
There's so much garbage going on in Hollywood that if people really knew what the truth is, there'd be a congressional investigation.

Although this is terrible. Nothing truly surprises me anymore in the least. Sad thing is if you can think it, probably has happened.
I live here and know that Hollywood is a joke. Sometimes it takes a number of years, before coming forward in cases such as this. Sometimes the victims keep their feelings inwards until they are old enough to understand and mature to understand what has happened to them. Such as in many cases where boys were molested by Priest.
You can imagine it, I am sure it is happening somewhere. And that is sad.
He has done it many times before. But in Hollywood this is good behavior.
