Bryan Singer’s Former Teen Lover Speaks Out After Years Of Abuse: “Older Men Would Lead Groups Of Twinks Into Bryan’s House”
The former “assistant” and boy toy of disgraced director Bryan Singer has given Variety an explicit, often devastating account of his years spent with the notorious twink predator. An excerpt is below, but read it in full here.
He told me I should work in film, that it’s what I’m “meant to do.” I felt he understood me; I always knew I was meant to tell stories. Bryan told me if I was serious about my future, I needed to move to Los Angeles. So I did. That’s when I learned he had a reputation for liking very young-looking men.
Older men would lead groups of twinks, like me, into Bryan’s house. It was expected that these men had already vetted these boys to make sure they were legal. He would come hang out for a bit, make sure everyone had drinks, and then he’d pick the one, two, or more who he liked and we’d see them an hour or three later. I was often one of them.
I wanted to think I was special, different from all of the others.
He invited me to sets, post-production sessions, script readings, development meetings, film festivals, parties and dinners. He would pay for meals and was extremely generous — he even took me to dinner with Sir Elton John. He also began to expect sex more frequently.
He would invite me over to watch movies until late each night. He called it “Bryan Singer’s Film School.” It was usually just the two of us but sometimes others would join and then leave the moment the movie ended. It was then expected that we’d have sex or, at the very least, I would masturbate with him.
As we got closer, he expected even more. If he didn’t find a boy out at the bars that night, I would have to be the boy. If I put up even a little bit of resistance, he’d get angry. Why would I throw my future away? If I wanted to leave I was welcome to, but I wouldn’t be allowed back. He would text me about sex: “Boy cum yeahhhhhhhhh!”
