It looks like more people were watching Kevin Spacey’s truly bizarre monologue than the Queen’s speech on Christmas Day. Ooh, festive.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the video racked up 4.5million views in 24 hours on Monday night as we heard from the House of Cards actor for the first time in over a year.

Spacey appeared to indirectly respond to felony charges, announced the same day in the US, for allegedly sexually assaulting a teenager, even though he never directly addressed the allegation

Girl, no, not again.

That seems to be Twitter's collective response to Kevin Spacey, who broke his silence since he attempted to respond to allegations in October 2017 of sexual assault by the actor Anthony Rapp, who was 14 when the incident took place, with his own, badly misconceived coming-out narrative. On Monday, he appears to have made another spectacular PR mistake, on Christmas Eve no less, when he posted a video to YouTube (embedded at bottom), titled "Let Me Be Frank."

In the video, he affects the Southern accent of Frank Underwood, the House of Cards character who was unceremoniously booted by the show after eight HoC employees also brought forth allegations of sexual misconduct against the actor. Wearing a Santa apron in amateurish home video lighting (Netflix has already clarified they were definitely not involved), Spacey talks directly to camera as he does on the show, speaking dialogue that the actor, a Shakespeare devotee, probably thinks is full of wit and double entendre—"Isn't it just so brilliant that you can't tell if I'm talking about my own narrative or Frank Underwood's storyline?"—but actually comes off as deeply threatening, sinister, accusatory, and not at all clever. Moreover, it is incredibly ill-timed, coming on the heels of the news that he will face felony charges for allegedly sexually assaulting the teenage son of former Boston WCVB-TV news anchor Heather Unruh at a Nantucket bar in July 2016.

The questions led to Spacey testifying about his dismay at rumors that had been swirling on the Internet about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein because he’d flown to South Africa with former President Bill Clinton on a plane “donated by a man named Jeffrey Epstein.”

“I was now being talked about as if I knew Jeffrey Epstein, as though I was some important and powerful friend of his, and because I’d been on this airplane, I had actually flown to what was being called Pedo Island,” Spacey testified. “And while it is true that I met Jeffrey Epstein on that trip, I never saw him again, and I have never been to any island.”

Spacey also mentioned rumors connecting him to the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which falsely claimed a child sex ring was operating in the basement of a pizza parlor in Washington, D.C.

“They believed that me and Hillary Clinton and Anderson Cooper eat babies and were a part of this ring,” Spacey said.

“I don’t think I have to ask you, but I’m assuming those are false allegations, right?” asked Scolnick, a partner with Keller/Anderle LLP in Irvine, California.

“They are completely false allegations, yes,” Spacey answered.

Spacey referenced the rumors in an Oct. 29, 2017, social media post he wrote after a BuzzFeed news article published in which Rapp first publicly accused Spacey of sexual assault in 1986, when Rapp was 14 and Spacey was 26. While Spacey now says he’s sure the incident never happened and that he’d never been alone with Rapp, the Oscar-winning actor had apologized to Rapp in his post shortly after the BuzzFeed article. Much of Scolnick’s exam on Monday appeared aimed at both refuting Spacey’s statement and explaining why he essetnially confessed to Rapp’s accusation but now says he’s positive he’s being falsely accused.
