Brendan Fraser is the latest actor to come forward with his story of sexual assault in the wake of the #MeToo and Time’s Up movement.

In a new interview with GQ, The Mummy star reveals he was groped in 2003 by Philip Berk, a former president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

Explain to me why this story doesn’t read: “He grabbed my arse and I knocked him the frick out.” He felt like he wanted to cry? What has happened to men?

You don’t hear about any dudes groping Clint Eastwood or Tom Selleck.

Matt Damon called him a Jew and punched him in a shower and he cares more about THIS?

Wtf? Ok, I get the whole ‘big powerful name in Hollywood and don’t want to face the backlash of snitching’ thing but come on. How much of your soul do you have to sell for that big role?

This old af dude hugged a 30 something yr old Fraser and reached under his butt, tickled his taint, and he just stood there and took it? That is some crazy shite.

#MeToo = sexual harassment assault abuse aggression violations

#Itoo = blacklisted by executives from Hollywood

#HeToo #SheToo = supporters of victims

quote:

“His left hand reaches around grabs my arse cheek, and one of his fingers touches me in the taint. And he starts moving it around. I felt ill. I felt like a little kid. I felt like there was a ball in my throat. I thought I was going to cry.” The incident, which Fraser claims took place at the Beverly Hills Hotel in 2003, left a "reclusive" Fraser feeling frightened and depressed. The 49-year-old star pins his career decline on the incident, saying that he was never invited back to the Golden Globes ceremony after that year. Berk denied the allegation and told GQ that Fraser's career "declined through no fault of ours.”

Not only that—and btw, this reaction by Fraser would not have been acceptable
even 15 years earlier—but the dude wasn't even a producer. He was the president of the fricking Hollywood Foreign Press. I don’t doubt the had at least some juice in Hollywood, but what possible direct power did he have over 35-year-old Brendan Fraser? I literally can’t even.




ETA—-and how can a 49-year-old father of 3(I looked it up) possibly tell this story to anybody, much less GQ magazine?

So this #MeToo against James Woods features someone I've never heard of, Amber Tamblyn. She says when she was 16, James Woods made a subtle suggestion she and her friend go with him and his friend to Vegas. That's it, nothing more!

quote:

Woods slammed Armie Hammer's new film, "Call Me By Your Name," on Twitter seemingly because it features a 17-year-old becoming romantically involved with a 24-year-old. Late Monday, Amber Tamblyn claimed on Twitter that the actor hit on her when she was 16 years old. Replying to the thread with Woods’ comment about the film, she wrote, "James Woods tried to pick me and my friend up at a restaurant once. He wanted to take us to Vegas. ‘I’m 16’ I said. ‘Even better’”

quote:

Tamblyn called out the 70-year-old star on Twitter to accuse him of hitting on her and a friend when she was just 16.

quote:

Tamblyn goes on to explain in great detail the events of the day in question. According to her account, her and a friend went to see a band and then went to a local diner to get burgers after. When they were leaving, Woods and a friend allegedly stopped them and began to discuss the idea of going to Vegas with the girls. “You tried to make it sound innocent. This is something predatory men like to do, I've noticed. Make it sound innocent. Just a dollop of insinuation. Just a hair of persuasion. Just a pinch of suggestion.”

At the time this occurred he had 30 -35 Hollywood credits to his name. He was already wealthy. He made a conscious decision to get a taint massage for more money.

Im sorry but any 35 year old man that doesn't defend himself in a situation like that is a gigantic pussy. What kind of man let's another man finger his taint unwillingly with no immediate consequences?
