This one is beyond weird...even for Hollywood.

Quote:
Hollywood star Kevin Spacey has made an apology after being accused of making a sexual advance toward a child actor.

Anthony Rapp, who was 14, said Spacey invited him to a party and seemed drunk when the alleged incident happened.

Spacey, who was 26, said: "I honestly do not remember the encounter... but if I did behave then as he describes I owe him the sincerest apology."

Spacey also revealed he was now living as a gay man after years of refusing to address rumours about his sexuality.

So Spacey gets accused of sexual assault of an underage boy and uses the incident to announce that he's gay?

WTF???

Why in the world would anyone care if he's gay or not after possibly being so drunk he tried to have sexual contact with a minor?

Talk about tone deaf.

Was this normal behavior for Spacey back then? Get drunk and sexually assault minors?

A friend of a friend was propositioned by him decades ago at a party, so I think the fact that he's gay has been pretty well known for a while. The guy was of age, but much younger than Spacey.

If many more minors come forward, coming out of the closet won't be enough, He may have to start wearing a dress.

It's only an accusation so far, and no one knows the exact details or events.

In the light of other accusations that have proven to be false in the past and in the interest of Justice, it's best not to have trial by media or indeed by awful Rose McGowan.

She not just awful she's stupid, I remember her saying after filming the dire 'Fifty Dead Men Walking', a film basically about how evil the IRA were and how Catholic Martin McGartland turned informer to hekp stop the violence in his own community.

The film like much of Rose McGowans work was god awful and condemned by McGartland himself as made up rubbish, however I remember clueless McGowan stating "I imagine, had I grown up in Belfast, I would 100% have been in the IRA. My heart just broke for the cause".

She didn't seem to even realise te film itself was about how evil the IRA were and McGartland survived numerous attacks on his life, nor did she understand that in terms of Belfast sometimes only a wall divides where your loyalities would be, and that both sides had equally nasty paramilitaries, indeed the IRA killed more Catholics than anyone else including women like McGowan. I wonder if she had stated that her heart just broke for the Islamic Terrorist cause whether it would have been seen as acceptable.

Director apologises for Rose McGowan's IRA comments - Belfast Telegraph

Then you had all the homophobic rubbish spouted by McGowan, McGowan caused controversy for some of her remarks, which have been characterized as homophobic or transphobic, and it should be noted her father ran a chapter of the Children of God, in which both he and his wife held membership until 1978.

Her controversial statements include branding gay men as more misogynistic than straight men, claiming gay people "fought for right to wear speedos" and take MDMA, and her criticism of Caitlyn Jenner for stating that "the hardest part about being a woman is figuring out what to wear," after Jenner was named "Woman of the year" by Glamour.

McGowan also held a defiant party in support of the Brunei-owned Beverly Hills Hotel, despite a boycott over Brunei's anti-gay laws, which prescribes death by stoning for same-sex activities. She later apologized for generalizing gay men as misogynistic, but defended the rest of her comments.

McGowan has since become a campaigner for LGBT Rights.

Rose McGowan apologizes to gay community - CNN.com

In a 2011 interview, McGowan talked about her experience working with director Victor Salva, who is a convicted child molester and child pornography maker, on Rosewood Lane. She said, "I still don’t really understand the whole story or history there, and I’d rather not, because it’s not really my business. But he’s an incredibly sweet and gentle man."

The Problem With Rose McGowan

McGowan who is know even uglier with a shaven head, seems to be relishing the latest controversy, tweeting F-Off to people and shouting down any celebrity accused of anything before they have even been found guilty of anything and she seems to revelling in all of this.

In reality she's a crap outspoken actress who like courting controversy and will just adopt any cause in order to get media coverage, as for her films they are as crap as her views, indeed the best thing she can do is just shut her mouth and stop making crap'B' movies.
