Star Trek actor claims Kevin Spacey tried to seduce him aged 14

Actor Anthony Rapp has claimed Hollywood star Kevin Spacey invited him to his New York apartment when he was just 14 years old, and made a “drunken” advance towards him.

The House of Cards star quickly released a statement, saying he was “beyond terrified” to hear of Anthony’s claims, saying he can’t remember the incident.

In an apology, Kevin also admitted that although he has been with both men and women throughout his life, he chooses to live as a gay men, and admitted there are other stories about his sex life going to appear.

Speaking to BuzzFeed News, Anthony said that he and Kevin met in 1986 while they both appeared in different Broadway shows.

Kevin was aged 26 at the time, and allegedly invited Anthony to his apartment for a party.

Anthony claims he got bored and watched television in Kevin’s bedroom, before realizing he was the only one left.

The actor said that Kevin then appeared and “sort of stood in the doorway, kind of swaying. My impression when he came in the room was that he was drunk.”

He added that Kevin “picked me up like a groom picks up the bride over the threshold.

“But I don’t, like, squirm away initially, because I’m like, ‘What’s going on?’ And then he lays down on top of me.”

“He was trying to seduce me,” Anthony told BuzzFeed News.

“I don’t know if I would have used that language. But I was aware that he was trying to get with me sexually.”

“He was, like, pressing into me…tightening his arms,” he continued.

“It was a frozen moment. In terms of fight or flight or freeze, I tend to freeze.’

After Anthony finally “wriggled” away, Kevin allegedly followed him to the door, where he asked him if he really wanted to leave.

In a statement on his Twitter page, Kevin addressed the claim and also admitted he is living as a gay man.

“I have a lot of respect and admiration for Anthony Rapp as an actor,’ Spacey wrote. ‘I’m beyond horrified to hear this story. I honestly do not remember the encounter, it would have been over 30 years ago.

“But if I did behave then as he describes, I owe him the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior, and I am sorry for the feelings he describes having carried with him all these years.

“This story has encouraged me to address other things about my life. I know that there are stories out there about me and that some have been fueled by the fact that I have been so protective of my privacy,” he wrote.
