There’s this old adage that says you can learn a lot about someone by observing how they treat waiters, bartenders and other service industry employees. If that’s to be believed, then not-so-secretly-gay actor Kevin Spacey must be a jerkoff of staggering proportions based on the way he treated one waiter in Rhode Island recently.
Peter Turner claims that Spacey essentially told him to fuck off after he asked the actor to refrain from smoking inside the restaurant, at the request of his manager.
“You’re an aggressive prick,” Turner said the Oscar winning actor Kevin Spacey told him after he asked him to stop smoking three times in the high-end restaurant Clarke Cooke House in Newport, Rhode Island in late June. When Spacey’s dinner companions lit up their cigarettes Turner was instructed by his boss to tell the group to stop smoking, since it was a violation of state law. He said he made a joke to the smokers, saying: “You’re not allowed to smoke in here unless you’re on fire,” but the actor’s anger exploded. “I need you to get the f*** away from my table,” Spacey snarled to the waiter.
Turner says he was fired three days after the incident.
Let me tell you something, I worked at his production company as an intern for 2 semesters and I only met him once- and HE in, fact was the biggest prick I ever met or had to work for. Every time you asked him something, the only way he'd answer you was by whispering some bullshit into his assistant's ear and then the assistant would relay the command; he would never talk directly to the "help". P-R-I-C-K.
So the waiter's boss asked him to tell Kevin Spacey to quit smoking and then fired him for telling Kevin Spacey to quit smoking? You don't get the sense that this guy's story isn't quite adding up?
@5thavenue…There is something odd going on there, but it wouldn't be the first time some asshole celebrity threw his weight around to get someone who pissed him off fired. Shit happens frequently actually. So while it does sound retarded, it's not entirely impossible.
@ITEM…yeah, I've heard before from people in "the business" that Spacey is a prick, and usually where there's smoke, there's fire.
That settles it. Mr. Spacey will not be receiving any of our awards from this point forward.
Right av always like kevin spacey the films hes starred in, but it seems here that hes just one typical spoiled award winning actor and what i mean by that is that he thinks he can get away with smoking in a reasturant because hes famous when hes just another human being like ourselfs.
