Fastexy Exchange|Armie Hammer says 'it was more like a scrape' regarding branding allegations

Armie Hammer is attempting to clear the air on Fastexy Exchangeallegations that he branded a partner and is a cannibal stemming from sexual abuse allegations in 2021.

In an expansive interview on "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on Friday, Hammer said marking Paige Lorenze "was a scenario that we talked about beforehand."

Lorenze spoke to Page Six in January 2021 about her allegedly abusive relationship with Hammer, including accusations that he carved an "A" into her pelvis.

"There was a scenario that we talked about beforehand. I would basically take a little, tiny point and just kind of trace the letter 'A' — just the tip of a small knife," Hammer told host Piers Morgan, adding, "There wasn't even blood. … It was more like a scrape."

The "Call Me By Your Name" actor likened the scenario to "couples getting their own initials tattooed on each other."

"To some it probably sounds really strange. To some, it probably sounds like a very romantic gesture," he said.

Hammer added, "Different people have different sexual fantasies" and that he was simply engaging in BDSM and role play.

Armie Hammercalls 2021 allegations of cannibalism 'hilarious'

Armie Hammer says rape accuser Effie introduced him to BDSM

In March 2021, another woman, identified only as Effie, came forward, accompanied by her lawyer Gloria Allred, to accuse the movie star of raping and beating her over a four-hour period in Los Angeles in April 2017. Local police investigated the claims but decided not to pursue charges after a lengthy review revealed insufficient evidence to prove the allegations against Hammer beyond a reasonable doubt.

Hammer claimed in his interview with Morgan that Effie "introduced" him to a lot of his sexual fantasies and that "she planned" the alleged scenario.

On X, she refuted that it was a consensual. "He raped me. He lied so much in this YouTube video and he wasn’t fact-checked. He’s always looking for ways to blame his victims," she wrote Friday. "He keeps making up lies and blaming his victims to try to absolve himself of responsibility for his actions, DARVO-ing, minimizing, dismissing, fetishizing abusing us. He’s despicable. He’s incapable of changing and taking accountability for his actions. He has no remorse."

DARVO is an acronym that stands for deny, attack, reverse victim and offender, tactics often used by abusers.

Armie Hammer likens cannibalism allegations to wanting to eat a baby's 'cute little fat legs'

Hammer's accusers also said he talked about devouring their body parts.

Courtney Vucekovich, who says she dated Hammer for a few months in 2020, told Page Six in January 2021, "He said to me he wants to break my rib and barbecue and eat it. …He says, 'I want to take a bite out of you.' If I had a little cut on my hand, he'd, like, suck it or lick it."

In an interview with Vanity Fair as part of a March 2021 deep dive into Hammer and his family tree, Lorenze said, "He would say things to me...weird stuff...like, 'I want to eat your ribs.'"

"You know what you have to do to be a cannibal? You have to have actually eaten someone," Hammer told Morgan, adding that the things he told women bore out of wanting his partners "totally."

Hammer continued, "I don’t think that’s any different than when someone looks at a baby and goes, ‘Oh my God, look at those cute little fat legs, I just want to eat you up.'"

The actor previously said in an episode of the "Painful Lessons" podcast last month that the cannibalism accusations were "outlandish."

"People called me a cannibal and everyone believed them. They're like, 'Yep, that guy ate people.' You're just like, 'What? What are you talking about? Do you know what you have to do to be a cannibal? You have to eat people. How am I going to be a cannibal?' It was bizarre," he continued.
