Hollywood star Spacey 'homeless'

Hollywood snub after assault trial

- BY CHRISTOPHER BUCKTIN

OSCAR winner Kevin Spacey has claimed he is now homeless after being frozen out of Hollywood in the wake of sexual assault allegations made against him eight years ago.

The 66-year-old actor, once one of the most powerful figures in the film industry, said he has been forced to give up his house and put his belongings in storage due to "astronomical" legal bills.

He said the financial strain of defending himself in cases has wiped out all of his savings and left him living in rented accommodation.
