Armie Hammer has declared he is not a cannibal as he’s never eaten anyone.
The ‘Call Me by Your Name’ actor, is battling to resurrect his career and clear his name after he was hit by a string of allegations in 2021 including emotional abuse, manipulation and rape – and the infamous accusation he harboured cannibalism fantasies.
He was asked by Piers Morgan, 59, on the presenter’s YouTube show, if he was a cannibal – with Armie replying: “You know what you have to do to be a cannibal? You have to have actually eaten somebody.”
The actor also confirmed he had not eaten anyone.
Armie insisted during the chat on ‘Piers Morgan Uncensored’ the allegations stemmed from consensual sexual acts and role playing.
The actor did admit in the talk to branding his ex-girlfriend Paige Lorenze with a knife – but insisted there “wasn’t even blood”.
He said about Paige’s 2021 allegation he used a knife to “brand” her with his initial ‘A’ near her private parts while they were dating for four months in 2020: “I wouldn’t say brand, no. There was a scenario that we talked about beforehand, that we had discussed where, you know, I would basically take a little, tiny point and just kind of trace the letter ‘A’ – just like the tip of a small knife.
“I mean, there wasn’t even blood in the situation. It was more like a scrape… It’s along the lines of couples getting their own initials tattooed on each other.”
When Piers, 59, said using a knife on someone is “a bit different to a tattoo”, Armie insisted it was “less permanent”.
