Let's start from the beginning. This week, unverified screenshots of Armie Hammer talking about being "100% a cannibal" were shared across social media.
The unverified messages — shared and amplified by the account @houseofeffie — appear to show Armie talking about disturbing topics, like cannibalism, drinking blood, and rough sex/rape fantasies.
Since the alleged messages have leaked, Armie's ex-girlfriend Courtney Vucekovich has spoken out. “He said to me he wants to break my rib and barbecue and eat it,” she told Page Six.
“‘Fuck, that was weird. He says, ‘I want to take a bite out of you.’ If I had a little cut on my hand, he’d like suck it or lick it. That’s about as weird as we got," she added.
The account @houseofeffie compiled alleged messages from people who said Armie used his fame to "manipulate" people into doing things they were not comfortable doing.
Armie has denied the claims, calling them, "bullshit," but has also dropped out of upcoming film Shotgun Wedding with Jennifer Lopez, according to Variety.
And although the scandal has been a trending topic online, other celebrities have been silent about the situation — except actor Bella Thorne.
Bella took to her Instagram story to defend Armie. “I honestly can’t believe this. People are crazy to fake this kinda shit — this poor guy and his kids, like leave him and his family alone. No way he’s a freaking CANNIBAL," she said. "Also, there's a million fake screenshots going around."
People immediately pushed back, criticizing Bella's support of Hammer.
Bella Thorne is fucking trash how do some people still not see this, the whole onlyfans bullshit then defending armie?! Like even I wasn’t quick to believe the armie dahmer shit but girl fucking believe victims
bella, armie probably wasn't thinking about the good of his children when he told these girls that he wanted to cut pieces of their bodies or when he fantasized about raping them, so shut the fuck up
does Bella Thorne really think she has more insight and wisdom than the professional sex workers that armie hammer serially abused mentally and physically? grown women know their boundaries FYI https://t.co/xfVPlKGIun
Also fuck Bella Thorne for believing Armie and supporting him. If she’s an ally to women and survivors of abuse like she claims to be, she’d at least give them a chance to share their story before dismissing as “fake dms”. No one dismissed her when she shared her childhood trauma
In conclusion, whatever the case may be, I'll let this viral tweet speak for itself:
no one asked bella
