    Roman Polanski Rape Victim Doesn’t Want You Boycotting Him on Her Behalf:

    40 years later, Roman Polanski’s rape of then 13-year-old Samantha Geimer, is speaking out about how her life and her ordeal has become an endless issue of debate and controversy.

    She told TMZ:

    I don’t like being used by advocates boycotting that he’s going to be the president of the César Awards, people make a petition without my consent. What happened to me is, sadly, common — however, not the end of the world, and I’m sure I would have been fine, and I was fine, but nobody wants me to be fine … I continue to be asked to be a victim so people can use my experience, change it, make it worse, dramatize it for their own agendas … I’m not a victim anymore, I can speak for myself, I don’t want to be used
