Dustin Hoffman: Accused of Groping an Underage Girl!
A few years ago, if you saw a name of a beloved celebrity trending, you clicked because you worried that they might be dead.
These days, in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein sexual harassment scandal, you see their name pop up, and you worry that they might have committed sexual assault. Just today, it came out that director Brett Ratner was accused of sexual assault by multiple actresses.
Well, Dustin Hoffman’s name is trending right now … and, well, he’s still alive..
We might think of Dustin Hoffman, these days, as a living legend. He’s a veteran actor and, up until today, was widely respected.
Once upon a time, though, he was a young actor at the top of his game.
Anna Graham Hunter has come forward with her story, accusing Dustin Hoffman of sexually harassing her when she was only 17.
She shared her story in The Hollywood Reporter. Just because this happened in 1985 does not make this okay, folks.
“When I was a senior in high school in New York City, interning as a production assistant on the set of the Death of a Salesman TV film,he asked me to give him a foot massage my first day on set; I did.”
Massaging can be entirely non-sexual or pretty explicitly sexual and everything in-between.
Because of that ambiguity, we’d say that if you’re going to ask a 17-year-old for a massage, you should probably be their peer — like, say, a classmate. If not, you should be a trustworthy family member.
Based upon this, there was no ambiguity about how Dustin Hoffman regarded Anna Graham.
“He was openly flirtatious, he grabbed my ass, he talked about sex to me and in front of me.”
That’s not appropriate around a 17-year-old or in a workplace. And the butt-grabbing might be the worst part of it.
“One morning I went to his dressing room to take his breakfast order; he looked at me and grinned, taking his time. Then he said, ‘I’ll have a hard-boiled egg … and a soft-boiled clitoris."”
Even if he were saying that to a lover, that would be super weird. Speaking to another woman, especially in a work setting and especially a minor, that crosses some serious lines.
So how did the other people respond? And how did Anna Graham?
“His entourage burst out laughing. I left, speechless. Then I went to the bathroom and cried.”
That is heartbreaking.
Reflecting back on it all, she summarizes things pretty honestly.
“I loved the attention from Dustin Hoffman. Until I didn’t.”
Anna Graham brought up letters that she had written to her sister at the time, detailing her life on the set.
“When I was walking Dustin to his limo, he felt my ass four times. I hit him each time, hard, and told him he was a dirty old man. He took off his hat and pointed to his head (shaved for the part) and said, ‘No, I’m a dirty young man, I have a full head of hair."”
On February fourth of 1985, her letter details how things got worse … but also better.
“Today this business got scarier. Or at least less appealing. This morning when I asked Dustin what he wanted for breakfast, he said something that beat even his lows. It was worse than anything anyone has ever said to me on the street.”
Well, we know what he said — the “soft-boiled” line. Creepy.
“It was so gross I couldn’t say anything. I just turned around and walked out.”
That’s a very understandable reaction.
“Then later I tried to get into a serious conversation with Frankie about why Dustin is like that. I don’t know how Dustin knew what we were talking about, but he shouted, ‘Anna! Are you badmouthing me? Anna! Get over here, Anna!’ The whole crew was cracking up, and I ducked behind a set.”
There was more fallout. But maybe it was worth it.
“Later, I was delivering lunches when John, Stephen, and Dustin came down the hall and he shouted, ‘Anna! So you think I’m a sexist pig, huh? Anna!’ The whole fucking studio heard him. So I told him that I didn’t appreciate his wandering hands or his comments. He apologized and said he would stop.”
She said that he did in fact stop, and that he started acting towards her the way that he acted when his wife was around. Gentlemanly, for the most part.
On February 20th of 1985, she reached her conclusion about him.
“No one is 100 percent good or bad. Dustin’s a pig, but I like him a lot.”
The actor has responded.
In a statement to the Associated Press, Dustin Hoffman issued a sincere-sounding apology.
“I have the utmost respect for women and feel terrible that anything I might have done could have put her in an uncomfortable situation.”
It’s not clear if he read her account, but he clearly got the gist of it.
“I am sorry. It is not reflective of who I am.”
This is one of those semi-apologies that we so often see in Hollywood.
It could mean that he’s not sorry at all … but it more likely means that he’s genuinely sorry about it, now that he’s 30 years older and wiser, but still doesn’t want to admit explicitly to anything.
Lawsuits are real things, folks.
This is complicated.
The time at which this took place and the act that Anna Graham appreciated his attention — up to a point — doesn’t mean anything.
After all, there’s no statute of limitations on something being bad. Sexual harassment isn’t excusable just because it happened a long time ago.
It’s possible that Dustin Hoffman misread some things (a lot of men take friendliness as genuine flirtation), but again, that’s an explanation and not an excuse.
Like Anna Graham, we find it hard to hate Dustin Hoffman for this — after all, what she describes is much more good-natured than the menacing predatory accounts that we’ve heard from actresses like Selma Blair or in Lupita Nyong’o’s Weinstein story.
Those were stories about calculated predators who lured women under the guise of work and then repeatedly tried to pressure them into unwanted sex.
But let’s be very clear — this story about Dustin Hoffman is the story of an older man sexually harassing a minor. It’s a story about other people ignoring it.
Everything that she describes is part of the same toxic, predatory problem that pervades every #MeToo story that we’ve read..

Paulina Gretzky Welcomes Second Child with Dustin Johnson!
Paulina Gretzky is a wealthy young woman who just so happens to be the daughter of Wayne Gretzky. Yes, that Hockey player nicknamed The Great One.
The 28-year-old confirmed she was expecting baby number two back in February. It feels like just yesterday she made the announcement, and the star has now given birth to a healthy baby boy.
Time really does fly when a celebrity steers clear of the public eye, right?!
ESPN’s Ian O’Connor confirmed the baby news while stressing that a baby name would be coming soon. All we can do for now is speculate.
We can do so with a picture Ian shared on Twitter congratulating the parents.
“Meet the beautiful baby boy of Paulina Gretzky & Dustin Johnson. Name to come,” the tweet said. No other details are known at this stage.
Considering, Paulina is active on Instagram and used that as a platform for the pregnancy announcement; we’re sure there will be updates from her on the matter.
In case you missed it the first time, the announcement picture is below.
Paulina met Dustin in early 2013, and the pair were engaged seven months after dating. She gave birth to the couple’s first child in January 2015 and named him Tatum Gretzky Johnson.
The pair has yet to marry, and we can only imagine how lavish their wedding will be whenever the heck it arrives.
Don’t ask Paulina about the wedding on social media, you guys. She flipped out last year on people who were trashing her husband.
The reason? Her husband opted to stay away from Brazil where the Summer Olympics were taking place. With the threat of the Zika virus, he stayed away from the event.
He was not the only one to, however, but he got trashed all over social media when a picture was shared with him, and Gretzky was shared.
Gretzky was not ready to let her man be trashed and went toe-to-toe with the trolls.
“Listen here you hating pieces of shit trolls,” she wrote on Instagram.
“I’ll say it once he didn’t work his ass of his entire life for a gold medal he achieved his MAJOR and let everyone else do what they need to do and leave my fanf—kingtastic man alone [peace sign].”
What do you think of all this?
Sound off below!

Paulina Gretzky Slams Trolls, Sticks Up for "Fanf—kingtastic" Dustin Johnson
Paulina Gretzky is the daughter of Wayne Gretzky, a hockey player nicknamed The Great One due to his prowess on the ice.
But we hope Wayne doesn’t mind if Paulina borrows that moniker for a bit.
Because she’s most definitely earned it.
When it comes to responding to non-sensical haters of her fiance, Paulina Gretzky is most definitely The Great One.
See, the Summer Olympics are currently taking place in Brazil.
And, for the first time in over a century, golf is now an Olympic event.
But Gretzky’s fiance, Dustin Johnson, has chosen NOT to participate.
How come? In July, the second-ranked player in the world announced that he wanted to avoid Rio de Janeiro due to fear fear over the Zika virus and its affiliated health risks.
This is relevant to Johnson because he and Paulina would like to have more children after welcoming son Tatum in 2015.
Make sense, doesn’t it?
Zika is known to produce birth defects in children both to parents who have acquired it and Johnson was among 13 golfers who withdrew out of concern for the disease.
But then Johnson shared a photo of himself with Gretzky on a boat Saturday, prompting a swarm of negative Internet users to attack him on social media.
Check out this supposedly scandalous photo above.
Apparently Johnson is not allowed to have any fun family time now that he’s decided to skip the Olympics.
“Watch out for that zika Dustin,” one idiot Instagram user wrote, while another added:
“Thanks for competing on our Olympic team.. Oh wait the lake was more important.”
This was enough to spring Paulina into awesome, defensive action.
“Listen here you hating pieces of shit trolls,” she wrote on Instagram.
“I’ll say it once he didn’t work his ass of his entire life for a gold medal he achieved his MAJOR and let everyone else do what they need to do and leave my fanf—kingtastic man alone [peace sign].”
Fortunately, an influx of fans also came to the couple’s defense, including one man who sounded way too reasonable for the World Wide Web.
“Listen guys. It’s just a nice picture of a loving couple,” he wrote. “Calm down. If the guy didn’t want to go to Rio that’s his business.”
That’s true. But that’s not even the half of it.
Professional golfers travel 30 to 40 weeks every year. They compete against each other 15 to 20 times per year.
So now they’re being asked to travel for another six weeks, simply to compete against the same field they face throughout the year anyway…
… only this time, they are asked to do it for FREE.
Golfers do not strive their entire lives to win a Gold Medal. This isn’t track and field or swimming or any Olympic-specific sport.
They have practiced an endless amount and dedicated their professional lives with the goal of winning Majors.
And Dustin Johnson just won his first Major, this year’s U.S. Open!
He did so after losing the same tournament a year ago, re-dedicating himself to the sport and trying harder than ever to overcome his previous failure.
And then he went home and basically got to have sex with the prom queen.
What’s more American than that?!?
You tell ’em, Taylor!
