International Emmy Awards revokes Kevin Spacey's honor

2017-10-31 4

Kevin Spacey won't be receiving the International Emmy Founders Award. The International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences made the announcement Monday, following accusations that Spacey made sexual advances upon actor Anthony Rapp, when Rapp was 14 and at Spacey's apartment in 1986. The Academy chose Spacey for the award back in June, and stated he was, “an individual who crosses cultural boundaries to touch humanity.”
