Armie Hammer: From Hollywood Darling to Tiny Apartment and Back?

Armie Hammer opens up about his downfall in Hollywood due to scandalous allegations, reflecting on his life in a ‘tiny-ass’ apartment, discussing his sexual preferences, and addressing fatherhood concerns while hinting at a possible return to acting.

So, Armie Hammer is back in the spotlight—sort of. After being kicked out of Hollywood for some, shall we say, eyebrow-raising scandals, he’s now living in what he describes as a “tiny-ass apartment” and spilling the beans to anyone who’ll listen on the podcast Your Mom’s House. In a recent episode, he reminisced about how his wild and wacky life unfolded during the COVID crisis when everyone barely had the energy to clamber to the fridge for their fifth snack of the day.

You see, while the rest of the world was grappling with lockdowns, Hammer’s bizarre saga became a juicy distraction. People were desperate for a little escapism, and nothing says “fun” quite like some cannibalistic fantasies, right? As Hammer put it, “The world seemed like it was falling apart… and then this salacious story comes around.” That certainly had folks trading memes faster than they could say, “I can’t leave my sofa!”

Naturally, this comes after being accused of some very serious stuff. There was rape, there were accusations about sharing violent fantasies, even a brush with the LAPD—though he wasn’t ultimately charged. Now, he opens up about his life post-scandal. He also cheekily owns up to his past behaviour, particularly in the romantic department. Let’s just say it sounds a bit like he was treating his relationships like a binge-watch on Netflix—complete with dramatic endings!

In his own unique manner, Hammer reflected on his appetite for romantic encounters, stating he often had a whirlwind of passionate escapades before disappearing quicker than you can say “ghosting!” He describes people as “bags of dope with skin on it”—wow, has he been reading too many self-help books? His foibles seem to come straight out of a soap opera, only with fewer dramatic pauses and more cannibalistic overtones.

And then there’s the matter of his, um, unique turn-ons. Hammer got chatty about his penchant for consensual fun—tying up a partner and all that jazz. He admitted he’s got quite the imagination, mentioning the thrill of thinking possessively. Let’s be real, though; if you took anyone’s steamy bedroom banter (even if it was all very vanilla) and tossed it into the public arena, it could look pretty strange, couldn’t it?

Whether he meant to or not, he ended up airing quite a few personal details during the podcast. At one point, he mused about being stripped bare of his public persona. He confessed, “You’re just left standing there naked in front of the world with all of your proclivities or kinks being judged by the world.” Talk about vulnerable! Still, he did have a knack for being surprisingly self-reflective about it all, acknowledging some of his behaviour may not have been from the healthiest mindset.

But amid the chaos, he’s trying to keep things together as a father. With kids Harper and Ford, he has a clear strain of worry about how they’ll view his actions in the future, saying, “I am well aware that my daughter and son are gonna get to a certain point… and then they go, ‘I hate my dad, too.’” These are real dad worries, my friends!

Yet, he insists there’s a light at the end of this rather murky tunnel. He’s currently filming a new flick called Frontier Crucible alongside William H. Macy. Hammer’s not quite back to his old self—”I wouldn’t say I’m back, [but] I’m working”—but hey, a tiny apartment plus a glimmer of hope for his acting future might be a win, for now!

In summary, Armie Hammer has bared his soul—quite literally—while navigating post-scandal life. He candidly discussed his past misdeeds, nuanced outlook on sexual kinks, and impending fatherhood fears. He’s inching towards a comeback in Hollywood, while indulging in a bit of serious self-reflection and a new film project. It’s a messy compilation of drama, comedy, and more than a few awkward moments, but Hammer’s story continues to unfold.
