Kevin Spacey blasts Guy Pearce in furious video statement #breakingnews #kevinspacey #guypearce #entertainment #hollywood Actor Kevin Spacey has published a furious video statement addressed to Guy Pearce, demanding the Aussie actor “grow up” and stop playing the victim after Pearce made allegations Spacey ‘targeted’ him with inappropriate behaviour on set of the 1997 film LA Confidential. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast, Pearce claimed that Spacey harassed him for months on the set of the thriller. Pearce, 57, claimed that the only days he felt “safe” on set where when fellow Aussie actor Simon Baker was present: “[Kevin] focuses on [Simon] because he was 10 times prettier than I am.” “He targeted me, no question,” an audibly emotional Pearce claimed, revealing that years later he broke down sobbing when he saw that Spacey, 65, had been accused of unwanted sexual advances by other men. Spacey, who came out as gay in 2017 when the first of the allegations surfaced, has either been acquitted or has had charges dropped in all sexual misconduct cases against him. In a post on X this morning, Spacey addressed his former co-star directly. “Guy Pearce, I’ve now read the comments that you made about me, and while I would have preferred not to have to play this out in the media, you obviously have your own reasons for wanting to do exactly that,” he said. Spacey argued that the pair had worked together “a long time ago” and that if he’d upset Pearce, they could have worked it out privately rather than Pearce airing it in the media. “You really want to know what my response is? Grow up. Did you also, by the way, tell the press that a year after we shot L.A. Confidential, you flew to Savannah, Georgia, while I was shooting Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, just to spend time with me. I mean, did you tell the press that, too? Or does that not fit into the victim narrative you have going?” “I apologise that I didn’t get the message that you don’t like spending time with me. I mean, maybe there was another reason. I don’t know. But that doesn’t make any sense that you would have just been leading me on, right?” he said. Spacey finished his statement by mocking Pearce for voicing his allegations now, almost 30 years after the alleged incidents had taken place. “Here you are now on a mission some 28 years later, after I’d been through hell and back to do what? Just in time to stop the bad guy, huh? Is that what’s going on here? What took you so long? Did your horse run out of gas? I mean, you want to have a conversation? I’m happy to do so. Any time, any place. We can even do it here, live on X if you like. I’ve got nothing to hide. But, guy, you need to grow up. You are not a victim.” -- This production uses an automated voice-over to assist viewers. -- Connect With news.com.au Online ► [https://www.news.com.au] https://bit.ly/3WC8hOP ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Follow Us: Facebook ► [https://www.facebook.com/news.com.au/] Instagram ► [https://www.instagram.com/newscomauhq/?hl=en] Podcast ► [https://newscomau.org/FromTheNewsroom] TikTok ► [@news.com.au] Twitter ► [https://twitter.com/newscomauHQ] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe To Our YouTube Channel For The Very Latest News From Australia And Around The World: ► [https://www.youtube.com/@newscomauhq] ► [https://www.youtube.com/@newscomauhq/shorts] ► [https://www.youtube.com/@newscomauhq/videos] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
