Why Armie Hammer Says Being Canceled Was “Liberating”
Why Armie Hammer Says Being Canceled Was “Liberating” After Sexual Assault Allegations
Armie Hammer is getting candid about his fall from public grace.
Over three years after the Call Me By Your Name actor stepped out of the public eye amid numerous allegations of sexual misconduct including rape—no charges were ultimately filed after a 2-year LAPD investigation—Armie is reflecting on why the time away was ultimately beneficial.
“It was pretty great,” Armie said to Bill Maher on being canceled during an appearance on the July 14 episode of his Club Random podcast. “It’s incredibly liberating, because so much of my life leading up to there was being preoccupied with how I was perceived, which now you don’t have to care about.”
“Once everyone just decides that they hate you,” he continued, “you go, ‘Oh, well, then I don’t need anything from you people anyway. I guess I should just learn to be content with myself.’ And then you go do that, and it feels f–king amazing.”
Now, if someone says they don’t like him, Armie said he’s able to brush it off, whereas before, “I needed that validation.”
