And I thought I had it bad because my dad named me after his first girlfriend... No wonder I changed my name.

A Woody Allen apologist and a Roman Polanski apologist..pick a struggle... All I can say is I feel so sorry for that kid. Imagine your mom going on national television live and saying she named you after a convicted child rapist....

Such a strange flex to announce on American television. Like come on - how can you not have the optics to realize how bad this looks?

I mean, she got an Oscar, Golden Globe, SAG and BAFTA award for Blue Jasmine. She’s hardly going to badmouth him. I hate to admit that it was actually a really good movie and she had a fabulous performance in it. Expecting actors and performers and entertainers to be beacons of morality is never not a failing enterprise. She’s just a tall, pretty woman who plays pretend in front of a camera.

I didn’t know what this is about and I found this article

Basically he raped a 13 yo girl after drugging her and giving her alcohol. He pleaded guilty and fled to France. Somehow everyone apologized for him.

Many more have come forward. Weird that Cate is still in the antiquated mindset of apologizing for pdf rapist… going so far as to name her child!? What in the world…

I hate that even the great Anjelica Huston blamed the girl for being there. She said the girl looked older and actually saw Roman like carrying the girl or something. Smh. Just sad.

So many have excused him, I believe Whoopie Goldberg said it wasn’t “rape, rape”.

None of these actors care. We need to expose everyone who allowed these sick A holes to prey on children and other vulnerable people.

His wife Sharon Tate was murdered by Manson Family cult members. Not related to his horrible behavior. Just another weird fact

He has admitted the whole incident in his biography but claims it was consensual(🤮) He has also talked about liking "young" girls and having had relationships with them in his military days(?)

So not only is he a rapist pedo he is an utterly unremorseful rapist pedo

What’s even crazier is that his VICTIM advocates for him.
