Steven Spielberg acted inappropriately with Drew Barrymore!?


Not on the set of "ET" but another movie from 1982:

Your #pedophile revelation, Isaac @IsaacKappy, about Steven Spielberg is accurate! I acted in the 1982 film ‘Night Shift’ along with Jaid Barrymore (Drew Barrymore’s mother). Spielberg brought (7 year old) Drew to the set, several times, and he was VERY friendly 😳 with her.

That's nuts. He's her godfather. He'd probably kill himself first.

You TMC-4 and the creep whose tweet you're posting here are probably the pedos.

My "evidence" is as strong as what you've provided so you can't complain about the implication.

reply

Are you actually calling my the *real* pedo, you're just trying to make a point about saying things without real "evidence"!?

reply

You have no real evidence

Your link doesn’t even work

I'm calling you a fucking plague on this forum as you were on IMDb.

I'm making a point about creeps like you and the author of the tweet you're giving publicity to here.

I might as well call you a pedo and all the things under the sun. I have as much right to as you have.

Like I said. You can't complain if you're going to promote unsubstantiated rumours.

Okay, let's get this out of the way. I personally, never said point blank that I actually believe that story that I posted. Just because I forward something on a message board doesn't necessarily mean that I immediately or automatically believe it. And how exactly am I a creep for bothering to read that tweet anyway. The person who posted that was going to get publicity no matter what since it was a very damning and provocative accusation to make.

Even without the Spielberg connection, it's 100% true that Drew Barrymore had a rough go during adolescence. So the idea that something traumatic could've happened to her (she was a child star after all) isn't that far out of the equation.

And how exactly was I plague on IMDb!? That was then and this is now! You seem to be more upset with me going in (since you obviously have a predisposition agenda) instead of the person who suggested what she suggested in the first place.

I don't get why you're so pissed off over the notion of somebody out there "imagining" (even if it's false) a high profile figure like Steven Spielberg allegedly doing something that he isn't supposed to do. People say shit about celebrities that's negative all the time.

I don't give a shit about why you're personally here! I didn't share that tweet for the shake of hopefully getting Martoto's attention or approval. You're making it sound like that there's no reason to post celebrity gossip, rumors, or innuendo what so ever regardless of their validity.

And the person who made that tweet was the one who made the pedo connection without out and out saying it. It doesn't take a genius however, to immediately figure out what she's implying, rightly or wrongly. There are numerous rumors about people in Hollywood that may or may not be true. For example, there's one about Kirk Douglas raping Natalie Wood. Does that make me a rapist for giving forth that allegation on here. There's also a rumor about Charlie Sheen molesting Corey Haim.

Look, I don't know for sure what went on in Drew Barrymore's childhood. But it's not out of line to suggest that it's weird that she had to go to rehab while barely a teenager. I don't like to play the slippery slope angle, like you seem to be.

That's a common misconception. It was actually a Cornish Hen.
