So, as you may know, when you are a minor and on a film set or a television set, you still need to go to school. Well, to take care of that thorny issue, tutors are hired and pretend to work with the children until they can be called back to the set and work.
I wrote about one tutor way back in the day, but wanted to tell you about a guy who was a particularly vile guy. He died not too long ago and he took the virginity of about half a dozen celebrities you would know but all told he probably did the same thing to 50 or 60 teens. It might have been more. No one ever did or said anything about it. One time one actress complained and she was fired. Another time an actress told the tutor that she actually had lost her virginity to an actor on the show so the tutor made up some thing about the actor and had him fired. The tutor did not like to share. The tutor would eventually be accused of sexual assault or he would get some girl pregnant and he would move on to another studio or another employer. He never had any trouble getting hired.
#1 - One actress who was A list back in the day when the tutor slept with her and is now probably a B- with some big time tabloid relationships in her past once said the tutor slept with every teen under 16 on the cast of her show. To do that he must have been very busy because there were about 100 teens that walked through that show at some point.
#2 & #3- This actress who was B list at the time it happened and on a very hit network comedy show says the tutor is the reason so many of her relationships now are so messed up and that she started taking drugs to ease the pain. This actress had one more middling show after the first. The second was a spin off. As a point of reference she also said that after the tutor had sex with her, her co-star (A list at the time and now a reality C) and very famous user of women had sex with her too almost everyday even though he would sleep with different women at night.
#4 - More recently, the tutor made his way through several networks which cater to children. He found lots and lots of teens there. His most recent assault, because lets face it that is what they are, happened on the set of a very hit tween show. Like very very hit tween show which is still airing. The second lead female co-star had just turned 17 when she was assaulted by the guy. She complained to the head of the show who had been a television star himself and he fired the tutor. It turns out the tutor had sex with two of his former co-stars on a hit network show back in the day.

Who was the tutor? If they just died, would there be a problem naming them?
ReplyDeleteWho was the head of the show that fired the tutor? These people should get more praise!
ReplyDeleteSame tutor as was used on "Head of the Class".
ReplyDelete@Victoria-Dan Schneider, he was an actor on Head of the Class. He shouldn't get praise, lots out there about him and his female under age stars.
ReplyDeleteDan Schneider strikes again. Probably fired the tutor so he could have her all to herself.
ReplyDeleteNever mind if it's Dan Schneider. I was hoping for a positive story to come out of this. I would love to see more blinds revealed about good men in the industry.
ReplyDeleteIt's a wonder these people find time to get anything on film. Sometimes they just make no sense, too: unless the tutor's name was Stanley Spielberg, why would network after network protect him, even firing actresses, instead of just getting another damn tutor? Can't imagine they're that hard to come by.
ReplyDeleteWho is the tutor who recently died?
ReplyDeleteMy heart breaks reading stuff like this. Wow. Lisa Bonet.
Now that I think about it, when you look back on old episodes of Happy Days and Joanie Loves Chachi, you can almost see it in Erin's eyes. Forced smiles.
Scott Baia is a dick.
Name the tutor, not the victims.
ReplyDeleteAgreed
DeleteI feel like this tutor has to be from the same place Feldman and Haim talked about - given the extensive history of sexual violence in hollyweird makes sense this person was active for decades. I feel for all of the people who have been used and abused.
ReplyDeleteEdward Furlong had a tutor like this but no one cared because she had tits
ReplyDeleteYup. That bitch is still teaching too!!!
DeleteLike someone asked above,.."why would the studios protect him"?? Seems odd they would fire a series regular/star (which the audience would notice and they'd have to explain) Instead of someone fairly easy to replace. If we are to "believe" most things here on CDAN, it would seem he was probably protected by higher ups who did the exact same things (and worse) to these kids. The blinds both say Lisa Bonet and Erin Moran were fired, but yet each got their own Spin-Off show. Were these shows actually given to them to keep them quiet?
ReplyDeleteNot surprised the protected the tutor. None of these studios want to draw attention to underage sex scandals. And none of them even considered it as a problem, in general.
ReplyDeletename the tutor, not the victims, i agree.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading about this somewhere a long time ago and the tutor was mentioned and of course I can't remember his name right now. If I do I'll post it.
ReplyDeleteDennis Blenden doing the decent thing? Crikey!
ReplyDeleteI came across this article, which is depressing, especially if this predator who should be named was a studio educator rather than an on set tutor, as it would’ve been his job to advocate and protect the children. Of course that could be why he was tolerated so long, he was the person with the most power over the children.

Some of Edward Furlong's family cared, they just weren't able to get anything done about it. From Wikipedia:
ReplyDelete"In 1991, when Furlong was 13, his 26-year-old tutor Jacqueline Louise Domac began a romantic and sexual relationship with him on the set of Terminator 2 that lasted throughout Furlong's teen years, including cohabitating in what Domac called a "quasi-spousal relationship."[13] When California's statutory rape law changed in 1994 to allow the prosecution of adult women who have sex with minors, Furlong's guardian Sean Furlong filed a complaint against Domac, but was unsuccessful in having her prosecuted.[14] In May 1999, Domac sued Furlong for violence."

ReplyDeleteOMG! Reading this blind makes me wonder about the little girl who played the younger sister on Family Matters. One season she went upstairs and for the rest of the series she never came back down. Girl just totally disappeared. Ended up getting into porn in later years. If she complained about being assaulted and was fired, this would explain a lot in terms of the subsequent porn career.
