Culture The Hollywood Sex Pest Megathread - America saw Yewtree and said 'We can top that'

Since the New York Times published its bombshell report last week on the sexual harassment allegations against Harvey Weinstein, the number of accusers grown considerably in both number and in severity.

While much of the public’s attention is on high-profile accusers such as Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow, the film producer also reportedly took advantage of staffers, aspiring actresses, and other young women in the industry.

Emily Nestor, for example, was a temporary front-desk assistant when Weinstein reportedly said he’d boost her career if she accepted his sexual advances. Another Weinstein employee, Lauren O’Conner, penned a scathing memo to the company detailing more alleged abuse.

“I am a 28 year old woman trying to make a living and a career,” she wrote, according to the New York Times. “The balance of power is me: 0, Harvey Weinstein: 10.”

In a New Yorker exposé published on Tuesday, 16 current and former staffers told Ronan Farrow, that, in his words, “the behavior was widely known within both Miramax and the Weinstein Company.”

We want to know if there are more victims out there who were not given the chance to speak out.

If you feel you have been personally abused or harassed by Weinstein at any time during your career, send an email to carla.herreria@huffpost.com to talk about it.

Oh good. We're talking about Corey Feldman. Ex-Angels members have been speaking out against him and claiming that he mistreated them and also didn't pay them for the gigs they did and are saying other allegations. I guess this finally went big because Corey is currently whining about how his ex-members are speaking out against him and being mean to him on Twitter. His gullible fans are all defending him on Twitter and I'm seeing it on my dash right now because it's fun to watch a flaming trainwreck.

How dare they speak out about being ripped off and mistreated, Corey's the real victim here! How dare people say that Corey's using his donation money on himself and his wife instead of saving children.

I didn't realise quite how creepy it was until I saw the Celebrity Wife Swap episode. Even if reality TV has some scripting you just couldn't hide the drone-like way those girls clung to Feldman's teachings. The bathrobe and lingerie uniforms, the list of rules, the forced veganism and the creepy photoshoots. Then Feldman says all the girls came from bad environments. So if that's true he's taking advantage of damaged goods. I'm glad they are speaking out. He ripped them off and exploited them for publicity and sex.

He's buying drugs and going on vacations with that money. His fangirls are dumb as dirt and if they can't see the forest for the trees by now with all the stuff that's coming out then they deserve to pay Corey's way until they are bankrupt.

There's a blind here that's obviously about Corey and his Lifetime biopic: http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2018/01/blind-item-8_11.html

So our favorite former A list teen actor who we will call A has a good friend who is a B- list do anything actor who is a celebrity offspring of a celebrity offspring and was given an important role in a movie which is supposed to highlight what our teen actor has gone through in his life. We shall call this double celebrity offspring B.

B is really feeling the heat from the public this week. It turns out that someone (C) accused of doing something awful to A's best friend back in the day is buddy buddy with B. That has to be awkward. "You know A, I know that C made your life miserable and raped your friend, but I'm friends with him."

To make things worse, B and C have been spotted flashing the same sign that A and his best friend used to do back in the day.

C was the person who revealed his friendship with B. Is it for publicity? Probably. Did A have a part in it? Who knows at this point because A gets more shady by the day. C is a convicted rapist who has been publicly exposed in the past. My best guess is that C is calling out the crap that A is spinning and that B is in on it. I think A needs to watch what he does very carefully. People are learning he is not who he seems but just a guy out to make a buck. Maybe that is why all his recent co-workers in that musical project have been speaking out.

It doesn't really say much that isn't already known. But throwing Feldman under the bus for his scammy ways would make anything he tries to say look like he's desperately trying to win people back that he previously ripped off. Plus he's a perv and that looks bad when he claims to be speaking out against pedos. So if he ever grows a real conscience and decides to actually speak up for all those kids past, present and future, everyone is just going to tell him to blow it out his ass because they no longer trust him. Way to go Feldman. You just had to be greedy.

I never had a greater appreciation for "A kiss from a rose" than I do right now.

Motherfuckin' Seal speaking church:

If Oprah runs anyone who votes for her is a full exceptional individual. There's no way she didn't know about Weinstein. She turned a blind eye to this nasty tub of rapist lard while promoting her female-centric media empire. She doesn't get a pass because she's Oprah. She doesn't get a pass because she's a black woman with an inspiring life story. But that's what will be pushed. Black woman rises up from a childhood of abject poverty and abuse to become a self made billionaire.

You'd think a woman who was sexually abused as a child and ran away from home because of it would be very wary of even rumors that Lardstein was a rapist.

Right now I am not certain if all of these Oprah for President rumors will grow fruit. But just because she's not addressing it doesn't mean that it's not PR from her camp. Let's hope it fizzles into nothing or she comes out and says she isn't running and actually means it.

Oprah also knew about the Duggars kiddie diddling son.

She just canceled their appearance on her show and told her staff to drop the matter.

@Dysnomia , I started thinking Corey was sketchy once he said he wouldn't comment on Judy Haim and then threw her under the bus and claimed that Judy knew about Corey Haim being molested. From what I've seen, Haim had a close relationship with his mother and Judy claimed she was on set with Haim a lot of the time. So now of course the Feldfam are attacking Judy and calling her a bad mother when I've heard that in the end, Corey Haim wanted nothing to do with Feldman.

That's Corey Haim a year before he died. Notice the part right before he drives off where he's asked if Corey Haim is going to have a reconciliation (most likely with Feldman) and Corey Haim gets annoyed and says that they just ruined the whole interview and made it awful by asking him that. How much do you want to bet that they were talking about Corey Feldman? Yeah, they were such best friends.

Going by the testimony in the podcast, Corey didn't just not pay the Angels and use them to ogle over them and show them off to horny men at parties, he also barely fed the band members and kept all the food for him and Courtney to the point that Mara (I think that was her who told the story) was starving and had to be hospitalized.
He's abusing these women in so many ways. As for Corey's fans- most of them are middle aged women with no lives who are chasing after Corey Feldman on Twitter because their favorite celebrity crush from their teenage years is giving them tons of attention and pretending to be buddy buddy with them. Add to that the people who still think Corey is trying to save children. Plus the fans of him who sent him money only to have Corey block them right after.
One woman actually donated 4,000 dollars to Corey.

I didn't know about the Duggar thing. The whole family is creepy. But it looks like a few of the girls are living better lives now. It's just too bad that they had to get married so young to do it. I can't remember which (it's the damn J names) but there are pics of her with a nose ring wearing a short skirt and another where she is wearing pants.

You've got to wonder how many other things Oprah has kept a lid on all these years. The Duggar thing is especially bad since Oprah was the victim of incest as a child herself.

I'm thinking that the question was about Feldman too.

From what I've read Haim and Feldman were only close for a very short period of time. And they were never best friends. Haim had real friends and none of them were Feldman. It's likely that a lot of their so-called BFFness was for publicity. They were huge in the 80s and pairing them up as best friends was probably very good for PR purposes and selling magazines.

Supposedly Feldman was jealous of Haim and set him up to be molested. I always thought that was a little much. But from what I've been seeing about what a lying scammer Feldman is I wouldn't put anything past him.

It's bad enough he had everyone on a crazy vegan diet. But he was also refusing them food. Courtney's raw vegan cuisine rivals the horrors of The Fit Vegan Ginger. But at least it's food. Kind of.

I'll post her nauseating instagram again: https://www.instagram.com/courtanne89/?hl=en

But $4000 is insane. I keep hoping they will wake up. But that's not gonna happen. They are all over social media gushing about Feldman and complaining about the "haters". He's really got his own perfect little army going.

Eliza Dushku was molested by the stunt coordinator for True Lies.

When I was 12 years old, while filming “True Lies”, I was sexually molested by Joel Kramer, one of Hollywood’s leading stunt coordinators.

Ever since, I have struggled with how and when to disclose this, if ever. At the time, I shared what happened to me with my parents, two adult friends and one of my older brothers. No one seemed ready to confront this taboo subject then, nor was I.

I am grateful to the women and men who have gone before me in recent months. The ever-growing list of sexual abuse and harassment victims who have spoken out with their truths have finally given me the ability to speak out. It has been indescribably exhausting, bottling this up inside me for all of these years.

I remember, so clearly 25 years later, how Joel Kramer made me feel special, how he methodically built my and my parents’ trust, for months grooming me; exactly how he lured me to his Miami hotel room with a promise to my parent that he would take me for a swim at the stunt crew’s hotel pool and for my first sushi meal thereafter. I remember vividly how he methodically drew the shades and turned down the lights; how he cranked up the air-conditioning to what felt like freezing levels, where exactly he placed me on one of the two hotel room beds, what movie he put on the television (Coneheads); how he disappeared in the bathroom and emerged, naked, bearing nothing but a small hand towel held flimsy at his mid-section. I remember what I was wearing (my favorite white denim shorts, thankfully, secured enough for me to keep on). I remember how he laid me down on the bed, wrapped me with his gigantic writhing body, and rubbed all over me. He spoke these words: “You’re not going to sleep on me now sweetie, stop pretending you’re sleeping,” as he rubbed harder and faster against my catatonic body. When he was ‘finished’, he suggested, “I think we should be careful…,” [about telling anyone] he meant. I was 12, he was 36.

I remember how afterwards, the taxi driver stared at me in the rear view mirror when Joel Kramer put me on his lap in the backseat and clutched me and grew aroused again; and how my eyes never left the driver’s eyes during that long ride over a Miami bridge, back to my hotel and parent. I remember how Joel Kramer grew cold with me in the ensuing weeks, how everything felt different on the set.

And I remember how soon-after, when my tough adult female friend (in whom I had confided my terrible secret on the condition of a trade that she let me drive her car around the Hollywood Hills) came out to the set to visit and face him, later that very same day, by no small coincidence, I was injured from a stunt-gone-wrong on the Harrier jet. With broken ribs, I spent the evening in the hospital. To be clear, over the course of those months rehearsing and filming True Lies, it was Joel Kramer who was responsible for my safety on a film that at the time broke new ground for action films. On a daily basis he rigged wires and harnesses on my 12 year old body. My life was literally in his hands: he hung me in the open air, from a tower crane, atop an office tower, 25+ stories high. Whereas he was supposed to be my protector, he was my abuser.

Why speak out now? I was 12, he was 36. It is incomprehensible. Why didn’t an adult on the set find his predatory advances strange — that over-the-top special attention he gave me. Fairly early on he nicknamed me “Jailbait” and brazenly called me by this name in a sick flirty way in front of others (at the time, I remember asking one of my older brothers what it meant). Sure, I’ve come to understand the terrible power dynamics that play into whistle-blowing by “subordinates” against persons in power, how difficult it can be for someone to speak up. But I was a child. Over the years I’ve really struggled as I’ve wondered how my life might have been different if someone, any one grown-up who witnessed his sick ways, had spoken up before he lured me to that hotel room.

Years ago, I had heard second hand that Joel Kramer was “found out” and forced to leave the business. I learned recently that in fact he still works at the top of the industry. And a few weeks ago, I found an internet photo of Joel Kramer hugging a young girl. That image has haunted me near nonstop since. I can no longer hide what happened.

Hollywood has been very good to me in many ways. Nevertheless, Hollywood also failed to protect me, a child actress. I like to think of myself as a tough Boston chick, in many ways I suppose not unlike Faith, Missy, or Echo. Through the years, brave fans have regularly shared with me how some of my characters have given them the conviction to stand up to their abusers. Now it is you who give me strength and conviction. I hope that speaking out will help other victims and protect against future abuse.

With every person that speaks out, every banner that drops down onto my iphone screen disclosing similar stories/truths, my resolve strengthens. Sharing these words, finally calling my abuser out publicly by name, brings the start of a new calm.

That was nausea inducing.


"how he lured me to his Miami hotel room with a promise to my parent that he would take me for a swim at the stunt crew’s hotel pool and for my first sushi meal thereafter"

I'm sorry but what the fuck is with all these parents!?

I don't care how nice of a guy you are, you're not taking my kid swimming alone at a hotel!

12 yr olds don't want to swim with old (to them) men, they want to hang out with other kids!

Hollywood failed but so did her parents and many other parents that offer their kids up to an insane adult world and don't supervise them.

Her parents allowed her to go with this man...

"that over-the-top special attention he gave me. Fairly early on he nicknamed me “Jailbait” and brazenly called me by this name in a sick flirty way in front of others"

 

[CervixHammer]

Her claims, denied by Kramer, are being backed by Sue Booth-Forbes, who was Dushku’s legal guardian on the set of the film.

so apparently this wasn't LARPing:

Forget people on set, I would have gone to the police or at least told her parents, which she does not seem to have done because they then allowed him to take Eliza to a hotel alone.

This is one of the few stories I've heard from this entire fiasco since the beginning that I believe 100%.

The grooming is plausible, the situation is plausible and the description of a 12 yr old frozen with fear whilst a naked man writhes over her clothes until he cums is an absolutely realistic description of how a normal kid would act in that kind of horrible nightmare.

Also the lack of caring by both the "guardian" and the surrounding management is criminal in itself.

 

[CervixHammer]

this Joel Kramer guy was Arnold's stunt double in Batman & Robin, Kindergarten Cop, Twins, Red Heat, Predator, Raw Deal, and Commando. and stunt coordinator for Arnold movies in general: Jingle All The Way, Eraser, T2 3D, Junior, True Lies, Last Action Hero, Terminator 2, Kindergarten Cop, Total Recall, Twins, Red Heat.

having a good working relationship with Ahnuld and James Cameron (even pre-Titanic) seems like a great way to get away with all kinds of shit. worst version of the story is if they knew and didn't care. version is he said he didn't do anything inappropriate and they believed him.
