3 Dustin Hoffman Accusers Speak Out In Exclusive Interview | TODAY
Innocent until proven guilty.
Oh how I wish that was so.
Savok Grim it is true? Unless you don’t live in America.
Innocent until proven guilty applies to the legal system, this comment holds no relevance to the discussion
Update: These women were all sued by Hoffman and paid him an undisclosed sum out of court.
But he already has so much money.
So they were lying?
This is not true at all. He didn't sue anyone and certainty didn't win anything.
Several women made allegations against him but didn't press charges. There's no lawsuits.
I like your style.
Exposing himself to a 16 yr. old is utterly SICK and perverted! What a traumatizing experience. Back then, women were shunned, shamed and fired for speaking about such experiences with powerful famous me. Only now, will they be listened to FINALLY after so many years of lost professional opportunities and painful and abusive wounds. I speak from experience having received similarly horrible abuse by famous classical music conductors who could get away with anything against attractive female Artists. Nobody would listen!!! It ruined my professional life. You have no idea what you’re talking about.
She wanted it
You weren't there, so shut your yap, dimwit.
@@grumpyveterangamer3207
He’s innocent
The man who brilliantly incarnated Tootsie which explored issues of sexual harassment and belittling women harassed women himself? This is really surprising and very sad.
I always admired dustin hoffmans work before, but I'm so so so very Happy to see all of these women standing up for themselves and Outing so many of them!!!!! Its about time ThAt We All Stood Up for WhAt's RiGht! BravO!
Mrs. Robinson, are you seducing ME TOO????
Jack nicholson and marlon brando stories anyone ?
@@longmemory1620 seriously how do you know that?
@@krystianhuerta8308 , brando daughter did an interview
Won’t ever believe that sorry !!!!!!
As humans, we remember painful experiences longer and with far greater detail than we do our happy experiences. Therefore, the perpetrator who walks away feeling good because they've achieved their goal, easily moves onto the next thing. Whereas the victim who feels frightened, is unable to move on from the experience so easily.
Sonja Dawn that is a very insightful explanation
meanwhile Seal gets boycotted because he called out Oprah
What about Corey Feldman and his issues
Indeed
Pretty funny that the Today show wants to play damage-control with Matt Lauer the way they"ve done so far. If not for allegations against him........they'd still be sipping coffee on the couch with him and all smiling. Yet they all knew.
To you they're ALL *guilty* and you're the most _innocent_ man in the world... the only one lol
Go John Oliver for calling this man out for his BS!
He knew he was wrong you don't touch a woman like that
I agree! These women have to live with this and hold this in for years. Being taken advantage of makes you feel worthless. It's not easy coming out and when they do they're blamed for it. I'm glad these pigs are being exposed
And its fine if women touch men 😩
Shane Canning oh pleaaaase! How many women treat men like sexual objects and abuse their position like this? And if they did trust me we would have no patience for their BS either.
S Venter A LOT OF WOMEN! Wtf are you on about?
@@mathiyanz Women will forever be in denial
I cant believe Dustin bloody Hoffman is like that. The worlds gone to the dogs.
Never blindly accept accusations without proof to back them up. Anyone can be accused of anything by anyone at any time.

@@AnimalLover-nn9ym True! However, him, Presley, MJ, Kelly, Great Ball of Fire Jerry, SPacey, and Cosby I separate the art from the men
@@kenroycherrington148mj innocent
That’s terrifying. And now he’s back for Kung Fu Panda 4.
His most nobel role was his voice as Mr berkstrom he left an impression on Lisa simpson
This is soooo ridiculous. This is just character assassination at this point.
"All of them loved him" then what purpose does this serve?
just a ghoul in the world The Truth
The truth, you don't love anymore someone who does this to you
He has been a creeper for a long time! Remember when he first had kids there was noise about him abusing the many! When women are valued as less than men this is what you get. Creep.
Those women valued THEMSELVES as less than men, as they probably were then and there (those who are accusing him, not all women or women in general). I guess he picked up the vibe, and there you go...
You are supposed to act correctly period. That is what it means to be a decent human being and not a savage. What a disgusting insinuation you have made. He acted like a savage for no other reason because that is what he wanted and decided to do. Responsibility is on him. It was his behavior and decision.
the operative word here is *ABUSE*, so not just only limited to SEXUAL ONES, BUT ALSO SHOULD INCLUDE VERBAL & PHYSICAL KINDS as well.
i ve noticed powerful ppl/celebrities, MEN & WOMEN, tend to ABUSE whatever they think they possess. they hv mistaken PRIVILEGE as TANTRUMIC POWER.
there r actors or actresses who would, IN A WAY ABUSING OTHER PPL'S TIME, turn up very late (if at all); being rude to ppl like hairdressers, prop, grip, assistant directors, etc around them; sometimes yelling at them; throwing things around; or even assaulting ppl.
these ABUSIVE behaviors r NOT men's monopoly, let those NON-ACTORS & NON-BIG SHOT-ACTORS who suffer under them CALL THEM OUT & DENOUNCE THEM, LIKE THE WAY SOME WOMEN WOULD NOW APPEAR ON TV SHOWS SOME 40 YRS LATER TO ACCUSE THE SEXUAL ABUSERS.
yea, TIME IS UP, the verbal & physical abusers WILL BE NEXT !!!?
Meanwhile, in the real world, Trump is about to sign the tax cuts for billionaires into law without even token opposition from the cowardly Democrats. Mission Accomplished.
Good! Now we need some massive spending cuts as well.
@@tedmccarron "we"? You're a billionaire?
@@adamcortright3445 - What a ridiculous unrelated comment in relation to the subject matter. Deflect deflect deflect. Besides, the tax cuts were for everyone. Don't make crap up.
Three years later, no one cares. They got their hush money; mission accomplished.
Stop this is getting out of control I am all for victims taking power but how many people are going to be ruined by false claims it’s time to start waiting for prof I am not one to victim blame as a former victim however I also know sometimes people who get get famous by hurting other a lot of men career has been ruin by claims they denied I know they always do but sometimes just sometimes are are innocent me too is great great for victims but when is going drone justice to pay back or bullying itself we really need to be careful it easy to ruin someone harder to heal it
I'm so sick of these actress's saying this happened to them I call bull crap. It's women like these that real victims are scared to come forward. It's all about money very sad.
You understand why you have no likes right ?
Con vic She has two likes you have no likes
@@Slice2099 😂😂😂
Look at you doing this for male attention. Ew.
How is this about money?
Someone can have many victims you know that, right?
Well why didn't she stop working with him? Why didn't she report it? The ANSWER: times are different. Talking about sexual assault was not as acceptable as it is today. Who is to say anyone would of believed her? She could have gotten fired if she reported it. Think things through before judging.
Well, bullying is never okay. And grabbing without consent is a problem.
But being aggressive in your advances should not be. Especially if it doesn't include physical interactions or threats.
My favorite actor is a creeper
No, he's not. why would you believe that? because of their allegations and vendetta's?
and you like it
Nah, he's a man, men are encouragable. All of these women sounded giddy talking about him, just as they probably were back then. It's easy for a man to misinterpret that as romance, and act on it. None of these women said no, as they should have at the time, to stop him from continuing his action toward them. That's their fault.
Funny how the me too stories are always 40 years old.
I believe 40 years ago a group of entitled white guys had the most power. That is starting to change.
How would his daughter's friend see him coming out of the bathroom? Was she already in his room? What was she doing in his room while waiting for her parents to pick her up? I don't buy that story.
Maybe he went to her room taking advantage of her being all alone
I honestly think this whole outing people over things they did thirty years ago is ridiculous. They'll disappear for a while and then everyone will forget and so what purpose does any of this serve? Jodie Foster did an interview with Jimmy Kimmel and had the most intelligent comments I've heard so far. She basically said there should be a summit meeting about this and also that to change this it needs to start at the grassroots level. How we teach our boys what is right and how you should treat women.
And women should say something at the time it happens. I 've had men say and do inappropriate things to me and I told them at the time and they never tried anything again cause they were scared what the consequences would be if they didn't.
@Gershun Davies But there were no consequences back then, the women would have be laughed at, and told to learn how to take it, because that how life is.
Gershun Davies it's not people it's just men when the women are being accused of stuff the news and journalist people keep that quiet
Evidently consequences existed cuz they backed down when she said to knock it off, which has been my experience as well. Take a stand, speak your peace and move on! Let other women know that's how to handle said groper and soon behavior gets modified
So what? It is 2018 and now there are consequences? In 2015 there was no consequences for it?
How4Basic Think ppl didn't know how to stand their ground then, mb, but mostly, they didn't think thru what was to be started. Plus, the "matriarchs" of #HollywoodKnew what they did. In "them days," self -scorn meant others must bear the same cross to make sense of theirs, a hazing of sorts.
Fast-forward, & In retrospect it's clear the "outing" of Weinstein was political hoping that by getting rid of one prob 99% of #Hollywood was sick of would be penance enough to go after Trump with piety. But, it backfired.
That's why it's 2017 b4 anything gets said.
Maybe all would've quieted down had Hillary won. Actress Rachel Weisz says Weinstein was the sacrificial lamb because he wasn't making money anymore, so it was an easy loss.
As the saying goes, "No one expected the Spanish Inquisition," so likewise, none anticipated the fallout of Weinstein outting wld lead to a movement and loss of other, more "useful" celebs.
women r *EMPOWERED* now, so DONT even tap them on their shoulders, THAT is sexual harassment!!!
and then one day, we men would dare do NOTHING, and it would hv to b THEIR TURN to ask us out for a date.
btw, one has TO PAY for lessons. the 1st woman might hv thought AT THAT TIME letting dustin to grope her was HER ONLY MEANS to pay him for ALL THE THINGS dustin taught her... but NOW she changes her mind !
Who's next ? Bruce Springsteen
complaining about giving a foot massage ? foot
massage is nothing i give my mother a foot massage
hey jules, Would you give a guy a foot massage ?
He could massage my foot any day!!!
Got my technique down...I dont be ticklin or nothing
Need proof
Actually it was Stephen Colbert not Jimmy Kimmel.
There are always 2 realities in personal relationships. Remember that before you accuse and sentence someone.
He’s innocent
Not surprised to read this at all. Lots of my favorite actors turn out to be very creepy. I don't confuse the role they portray with the actor. It's called acting.
For this trivial stuff...these harpies succeed in destroying the career and reputation of one of Hollywood's best actors.
If he is wrong he must be punished I do love him but still. This behavior cannot be accepted
If?? Sounds like you don't know the difference between what's right and wrong.
How can you love someone you don't never met
They need to let it go
True!
"Five women have accused Oscar winner Dustin Hoffman of sexual harassment, and now three of them are sharing their stories about his alleged behavior"
They're not "sharing their stories." That's just a dishonest way of getting around the presumption if innocence, and assuming he's guilty. No; they are sharing their allegations.
Right!
Two women on the same job with him, one was a teen, they are most likely telling the truth. My gut tells me yes.
I know Cori. She is telling the truth.
They assaulted him I was there.
Accepting an accounting job in Florida? Dustin Hoffman with a chimichanga perhaps
So disappointed in Dustin!Shame on him!
the fact that the only response hoffman says after his allegations is that whatever uncomfortable situation he has put through someone working in the industry was not a reflection of the real him is honestly all too good to be true. him being a pig around these young women is honestly how he really behaves around women and not when hes around men. i can say that about men that are both young and old out there in the real world. whats the most disgusting part to me is the fact that these men think they still got the charm to entice these young women when in fact i think most younger women might like the attention that they are considered attractive to someone but not so much on the sexual harassment that comes with it because i know they are only giving in to these old pigs is because they are afraid of them not offending them/hurting their feelings especially if they have so much more money /power over you and also coinciding with them with your future career goals/ambitions into their hands.
Notice every time women take absolutely no accountability for there own action. It always the man who comes at them out of the blue. Rarely have I seen any inappropriate behavior that wasn't without some kind of a back and forth between the two.
And it's kinda confusing to me as a woman how we are in an age of women empowerment and women all powerful that this behavior of projecting ourselves as fragile helpless sheep is being praised. Which one is it women?
You are ignorant, I was 15 going to the store by my home when a very large man started playing with himself in front of me and my friend. Did we tell anyone no; why we didn't want him to find out where we lived. A year later my best friend was trapped in the women's restroom at a restaurant on the main street in town. Just when I went to go see what was taking so long she came up and told me that a naked man had blocked the door and she couldn't get out.
The waitresses called the police as this had been happening frequently and they finally saw who it was, told us we could go so we wouldn't get treated badly by the media and in court as they had enough older witnesses.
The a couple years later after another dinner a jogger comes by as we are waiting for our ride, he only has on shorts and shoes, lifts up his side of shorts to show us his genitals. We laughed and said he was small and toput that away. I could go on, but I'm tired of typing.
The _'regime of terror'_ insinuates itself with _fame_ ..the two need to be *separated*
Is this for real? Basically, he was inappropriate? And this is news? Yea, he shouldn’t have acted like a schmuck, but he didn’t attack or force anyone to do anything. Does it really deserve all this bs? Dam this world sucks today.
This woman should have some understanding for the actor playing Willie Lomax.
Did anyone say "no".............and why would you go back and work with him.....sorry, makes no sense to me. They say how they love him and then this? I don't necessarily buy their stories.
I believe it is dangerous territory to worship any human being.
Anyone ever say NO? Leave a room when things get uncomfortable?
Innocent man,being accused, for fame and money..
Yes
YES
What makes you assume he is inocent
he did it because he could , but not all of girls like aggressive guys like that
Be brave ! Thanks for your words
You're jealous.
ANOTHER. HARVEY. WEINSTEIN
How many years ago was this? not one came forward than, I don't know any women especially in entertainment that are shy but they usually accuse in pacts of eight so there should be 3 more coming. I think there's some kind of political and financial turnover happening in Hollywood, flushing out the old and bring in new and affordable studio operations - restructuring Hollywood - getting rid of those to expensive without paying off contracts.
What the guy who stared in "hook"
I get a kick out of some of this stuff,. REALLY. First question. Is there any woman alive that doesn't think at one time or another that they have been abused or sexually harassed? Answer = NO. Is there ANY famous person, skilled person, talented, rich person who doesn't offend at least a few people. Answer = NO. So if you look hard enough you are always going to find someone with their story to tell. It can't be verified, they didn't bring it up at the time, or it's simply their impression of what occurred. More often than NOT. It means absolutely nothing.
Most men who suffer from sexual harrasment never bring it up because they are too ashamed, and live the rest of their lifes like that.
I wonder if that's also because they think like you and think it was... 'not that big a deal'. Not everyone is brave, but if you want justice sooner or later you need speak up.
and you come out about this now,do you need money ?
Cynthia is a down to earth lady.
They all need to get a life and grow up. So nasty to bring up such minor things. So long ago
It’s like a joke to do this to him !!
To harm is entire career and life like that is so dumb and he did apologize to the one lady who deserves it - the other two histrionic loser jerks are just jeoulus !!!!! Love and support Hoffman
This is the most wholesome me too story.
oh this is all just nonsense great getting accused of something before Christmas also if happens long ago why didn't they report him then
……… .lets just dnt touch women and try not to speak with them without male witnesses distance from female let them fight their own wars female only battle squadrons and male only work sections of the company and make sure they get . 0ne dollar more than every male… men distance from them and stop helping them and again dnt touch them for anything not even to help
big deal
the guy has two oscars
Let him hit that
He's the best thing that ever happened to any of them
@Hosea Matthews I don't believe you. But enjoy your virtue signal anyway.
He seems to have escaped very lightly ,.... Not right at all
Proof is very important.
Of course he shouldn't have done those things, but it doesn't mean we should never forgive him and just cast him out of society. Nobody's perfect.
~:~
WTF
I wonder what would you think if he have done that to you
If he came clean about it. And I mean full disclosure of his actions, realization that he has a a serious problem and that he needs help. Only then can we learn to think about forgiveness
Come on! They did this for attention because this was years ago, and they would’ve reported it already
Why wait decades.
3 money wanting women
AN YEARS LATER THEY SAY WHAT THEY WANT WHY NOT CALL COPS
That would be stupid.
let Dustin alone u witches
I don't believe a word of it,
are these women really worth the trouble ?
They want his MONEY.
Kosher Shyster, USA, 2019
This #metoo movement bringing issues that happened decades ago is getting weird, had enough bs of it. In this era you can't even talk to a woman without asking permission, things were different before. Not saying he is innocent or trying to defend him but just a thought.
I Believe Him
They talk men bothering woman,lets talk woman bothering men. I never got nasty with woman. You have to make joke because it is asinine.
Sadly the pendulum will shift to men blasting women for their gold-digging over-sexualized behavior. Then they'll be crying victim blaming again. I think victim blaming will be the death of women. How do we stand and speak about how powerful we are and demand equality but yet project ourselves are fragile helpless being. We can't have both ladies. And as a young woman who will soon raise a daughter, I choose the former. Keep your cries to yourself.
When there's a woman bothering a man, I hope he speaks up.
Because there's a lot of men who idolize women and say bs like 'I hope a woman does that to me' like that was normal or a laughing matter.
Its Hollywood, you gotta give a little to get a little. Quit yer belly aching.
Wow him and Trump would get along good
Wow, don't forget Clinton
Ok so now we're judging people for who they were in the 80's?
Gee I better make sure I'm 100% OK with everybody around me now so nobody will accuse me of anything in 2052 when I have family and kids...
Jesus
Kinda scary for the next generation huh cuz these kids are wildin out here !
So if he murdered people in the 80's we should just not judge him. Also perverts never stop being perverts. Not everyone knows how to deal with sexual harassment or assault, so cut the victims some slack. Abuser's are responsible for their behavior, not victim's.
peoria grace I think the standards for what is harassment have changed quite a bit and you can't say the same about murder. These women are complaining about petty things that took place decades ago to get 5 minutes of fame at "the pervert"'s expense. I find it hard to sympathize with sorry
So late in the game why are they coming out now and not back then ?
Me too liar's
If women want equality, then they should simply take on the responsibilities of a grown adult and speak out when these alleged assaults take place and hold the man accountable. Why did the two women just take it and remain silent when these incidents supposedly happened? Why did they continue to have any dealings with Hoffman? Why didn't the third woman, who at 16 Hoffman exposed himself to, not tell her parents about it immediately? Why wait decades to get on TV and play the whiny victim?
Assuming you are really interested in answers to your questions:
"Why did the two women just take it and remain silent when these incidents supposedly happened?" - Probably because it is really hard to talk about this under any circumstances, but espacially accusing a famous, rich and popular man. Many people experiencing violence fear noone is going to believe them and they have to relive their experiences publicly many times without even archieving something.
"Why did they continue to have any dealings with Hoffman?" - if their carrer depended on continuing to work with him, it is very difficult to quit. Also, maybe they could not even fully understand what had happened to them at that young age.
"Why didn't the third woman, who at 16 Hoffman exposed himself to, not tell her parents about it immediately?" - Kind of related to the first question.
"Why wait decades to get on TV and play the whiny victim?" - To "play" the victim is your interpretation, we both do not know what happened. I would like to ask you two questions about the "going on TV" bit: Do you believe women personally profit in any way from or like to talk about sexual harassment infront of a large audience? Why do you think only three of the five women who accused him agreed to be on TV?
I do not know if he did it or not, but statistically, most accusations by far turn out to be true.
Way better than never 'play the victim' like lots of men do, when they suffer from sexual harrasment
Most of them never come forward and speak up because they are too asshamed.
Not saying that isn't understandable, but so you know: everyone is different.
Omg I mean years later come on!
Dustin Hoffman needs to get convicted , my heart goes out to dese ladies, listen to dem y’all not listening feel they pain✊🏿❤️🙏💯🇮🇱
Actions carried out in one century, bring discussed and judged in the next! sorry! don't/can't buy it!
