As she had done for most of Tuesday, Kevin Spacey’s lawyer Jennifer Keller today again sought to dragoon Anthony Rapp on the stand in the Star Trek: Discovery actor’s 40 million sexual misconduct case against the former House of Cards main man.
Her cross-examination of Rapp lasted about an hour today — bringing its total length to nearly five hours — but the real fireworks came near the end of Rapp attorney Peter Saghir’s redirect of his client – when he asked whether Rapp told BuzzFeed about Spacey in order to raise his public profile.
“I came forward because I knew I was not the only one Kevin Spacey had made advances to,” Rapp testified.
That created an uproar in the courtroom as Spacey’s lawyers objected. Judge Lewis A. Kaplan sustained the objection, ordered that sentence be stricken from the record and told the jury to disregard it. An ensuing...

Updated with latest: To paraphrase the old Blondie song, Kevin Spacey’s lawyers today tried to rip Anthony Rapp to shreds.
Picking up on the core of her opening statement last week in the 40 million civil trial, Spacey attorney Jennifer Keller’s cross-examination repeatedly targeted apparent inconsistencies and vague elements of the Star Trek Discovery actor’s recollection of the events in and around Spacey’s NYC apartment in 1986.
And she clearly rattled Rapp to some degree, with Spacey sitting just a few feet away. And Judge Lewis A. Kaplan didn’t offer the plaintiff witness much solace as Keller hammered away at him.

In case you didn’t hear the other week, it’s been confirmed that Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker won’t feature a romantic relationship for Poe and Finn, despite many fans demanding it.
In fact, Poe Dameron himself, Oscar Isaac, made the revelation, telling us earlier this month that he was definitely hoping to see some sort of romantic spark between the pair. But alas, Disney, Lucasfilm and director J.J. Abrams have seemingly decided against it.
If you ask Isaac, that decision comes down to the fact that people are still “too afraid” of having an Lgbt couple in a Star Wars film. And while not everyone would agree with that, it seems that the Powers That Be are likely thinking along those same lines.
Be that as it may, The Rise of Skywalker does still feature some Lgbt representation and the moment in question has now been...
