In two identically worded statements released Tuesday, the Beverly Hills Police Department announced they are currently investigating producer Harvey Weinstein and director James Toback after receiving “multiple complaints” about both men. They added that “no further information will be released at this time.”

Meanwhile, the New York Post reports a truly shocking rumor that The Weinstein Company is having trouble finding a new investor, and that it could soon be forced into a new chapter of its existence: 11.

They write:

The loan from [Fortress Investment Group] “is not definitely happening,” the source said on Tuesday, cautioning that the situation was fluid and that talks were still ongoing. Without a loan, the studio could be forced into bankruptcy in the coming months, financial sources speculated.

Anyone wanna save it? No? OK, moving on.

Yet another man has come forward accusing actor Kevin Spacey of sexual misconduct. In an interview with Fox News, a man named Tony Montana accused Spacey of groping him in an LA bar called the Coronet Club in 2003. “I was in a horror movie. No one could see it,” Montana said. “[I] pulled his thumb back. He then followed me into the restroom…It was all very strange.”

In a more detailed interview with Radar, Montana claims Spacey grabbed his crotch and said, “This designates ownership.”
