    Wake up a new Ezra Miller article just dropped!

    Can’t read because I’m not subscribed to site but white people can really do whatever

    I'm gonna post the more wild parts of the article as I read it starting with:

    Insider has spoken with 14 people who had recent interactions with Miller in which the actor exhibited frightening emotional outbursts, carried firearms, or left them feeling unsafe. Some people said Miller sought out impressionable young women and nonbinary people whom they could isolate from their families and control. In some cases, Miller had sexual relations with these people. In 2020, during a roughly two-month stint in Iceland where Miller walked the streets barefoot, rumors spread that the movie star was running a cult out of an Airbnb.

    Over the past six months, the actor has been driving around the US carrying at least one gun and wearing a bulletproof vest, paranoid about being followed by the FBI and the Ku Klux Klan, people told Insider. (Tokata said the vest was "a fashionable safety measure in response to actual attacks and received death threats.") In January, Miller posted a video threatening to kill Ku Klux Klan members.

    Several people close to Miller say they're worried about the actor's mental state and are concerned Miller has lost touch with reality, whether because the pressures of fame have broken them or because no one is willing to check their behavior. Many of the people who spoke with Insider asked to remain anonymous, fearing retaliation from the star.

    "I think Ezra has been enabled because of their fame, their wealth, their earning potential, their whiteness, and their beauty," a longtime family friend of Miller's told Insider. "It's really hard to intervene when someone has as many resources as Ezra," they added. "When you're famous, people are less likely to say 'no' to you. I think that those things can be really dangerous."

    Those close to Miller said executives at Warner Bros., the studio behind both the "Fantastic Beasts" franchise and the DC Extended Universe films in which the Flash character has appeared, as well as Miller's parents, seem to have done little to try to get them help. (Warner Bros. did not respond to requests for comment.)

    "People in Ezra's life are really grieving the person they've lost," the longtime family friend said. "Because I don't think that person is coming back."

    By the end of 2019, their behavior, once characterized as quirky, became more disturbing, observers said.

    On the set of "Asking for It," a feminist thriller filmed in Oklahoma in fall 2019, Miller often wore long robes, a cape, and a unicorn head despite scorching temperatures, crew members said. (The ensemble was not part of Miller's on-screen wardrobe.) Many people on the set commented on Miller's pungent body odor, and one production staffer told Insider that Miller appeared mentally scattered.

    "It was kind of startling," the production staffer said, adding that Miller seemed to be "just kind of floating from place to place, room to room."

    A few months later, while filming the TV miniseries "The Stand," Miller incessantly screeched, spit, and interrupted the director by screaming during filming, Kevin Armstrong, an extra on the show, said. A second person said Miller would yell erratically on the set to get a reaction.

    At one point, just before the camera started rolling, Armstrong said, Miller screamed out an offensive joke. "It was something to the effect of: A Jew, a Black man, and a gay man walk into a bar, and the bartender said, 'Hey, what are you doing here? You don't belong here,'" Armstrong recalled.

    Armstrong said that when he complained about Miller's behavior, the person in charge of extras told him that Miller was method acting because their character, Trashcan Man, was mentally unstable.

    But a former associate of Miller's said things got so bad that production called Miller's legal counsel and manager because "people on set were not feeling safe."

    "It was disgusting and horribly unprofessional," Armstrong said of Miller's behavior, adding that anyone else would have been escorted off the set "immediately."

    When filming for the "Harry Potter" spinoff halted because of COVID-19, Miller headed to Iceland.

    Miller's presence was poorly received by some Icelanders, who said the actor was aggressive and emitted a putrid stench. The actor, who rarely changed out of the same loosely fitting bohemian clothing, strolled the frigid streets of Reykjavík barefoot, revealing long, pointy toenails and what looked like an infected gash on one foot, three people said. One person recalled seeing Miller walking around mumbling.

    Miller traveled everywhere with their personal assistant and spiritual advisor, Jasper Young Bear, who told locals he cut off at least one of his own fingers during a ritual ceremony. The actor used an art-house movie theater, Bíó Paradís, as a sort of clubhouse, with Miller occasionally burning sage to cleanse the premises of "bad spirits," staffers told Insider.

    One woman who visited the house for a day in March 2020 recalled several mattresses spread out on the floor and compared the house to a "commune." She was struck by how enamored guests seemed to be of Miller, hanging on their every word and seeming unfazed by Miller's mood swings. "I felt like everyone was hypnotized," she said.

    Between Miller's makeshift commune, their monologues on spirituality, and their emotional outbursts, rumors began to circulate in Reykjavík that the star was running a cult.

    Miller held court daily at the Airbnb. They often alluded to possessing supernatural powers, two people said, and instructed guests to participate in group meditations led by Young Bear. They spoke at length about fate and the importance of social justice for marginalized groups. Many of the people who became involved with Miller said they believed in the issues Miller cared about but Miller often took things too far.

    A musician who recorded with Miller in Iceland said the actor handed him 200,000 króna, roughly equivalent to $1,500, for his birthday. The musician said the more time he spent with Miller, the more he behaved like them and believed in their spiritual powers.

    "Nobody ever was kind of allowed to disagree with them," recalled a young woman who said she had a brief sexual relationship with Miller in Iceland when she was 18. "Their reality painted everybody else's reality. There was no room for anybody else's opinion or feelings."

    A 23-year-old woman who visited the house twice said she witnessed Miller fly into a rage when a group of friends tried to pick which song to play over the sound system.

    She said Miller swore and screamed at them to leave the house, which the actor referred to as a "sanctuary." "They snapped from being a friendly host to this really angry person," she said. The 23-year-old said Miller wouldn't allow the offending parties to speak or explain themselves.

    The woman who visited the house in March said that when she tried to use her phone in Miller's presence, Miller got angry. They "would be like, 'Hey, I'm talking to you! Why are you on your phone?'" she said.

    At another point, Miller ushered the woman and her friend into a room and confronted them about wanting to leave the house. "You don't like my hospitality," Miller told them, adding that they could read the pair's minds, the woman said. She remembers feeling intimidated and trapped.

    The woman eventually sneaked a text to a family member asking them to pick her up. She said that leaving the house felt like making an escape. "I was a bit traumatized for a while," she said. "It was one of the weirdest days I've ever experienced."

    The young woman said that while at the hotel, she had s***with Miller three times and communicated sparsely with friends and family. The actor became fixated on her breeding capabilities, she said, and worshipped her "perfect" womb by "talking to it, looking at it, hugging it," and laying their head on her stomach. Miller, she said, believed her loved ones were trying to hold her back and encouraged her to leave her life behind for a more prosperous future. She remembers thinking Miller was her ticket to success: "I was like, 'All right, I'm going to Hollywood.'"

    Wild read on this page @mjpplus thank you for providing

  • Aug 4, 2022

    Ignatius (former bandmate of Ezra's) said that when Miller and Tokata returned to Vermont in May (of this year), the actor's mistreatment of Tokata continued. He said Miller hid Tokata's phone from her and at one point screamed obscenities at Tokata for wearing makeup. He recalled Miller saying: "What the f*** are you doing? Putting on this f***ing clown paint?"

    Tokata said she was never screamed at. "That was queer dialogue about a badly applied rouge on my part, which I appreciated," she said. "I think the fact that a catty comment made by a queer person about makeup being considered abuse is actually quite homophobic rhetoric."

    On another occasion, Miller drove Tokata to a Vermont church that Ignatius and his wife were renovating. Ignatius said Miller "sloppily kissed" Tokata goodbye, "looming very tall" over her in the church's doorway.

    Ignatius said they paused their kiss, and Miller told Tokata, "No abuse without love." Tokata said she and Miller never kissed and Miller didn't say those words.

    Ignatius said that seeing what he described as Miller's "verbally abusive" treatment of the 18-year-old was the final straw in their friendship and professional collaboration. "I was misled by an extremely manipulative actor," he said.

    On the mom & 12 year old in Massachusetts:

    The mother, who asked to remain anonymous to protect her child, told Insider the actor showed an inappropriate interest in her 11-year-old. She said Miller complimented the child's style and maturity level and asked whether they were interested in starting a clothing line together. Miller also offered to pay for the child to attend design school.

    "I want to invest in your future. I want to make you somebody," the now-12-year-old recalled Miller telling them. They added they were "really uncomfortable 'cause I'm somebody who doesn't like talking to new people" but said Miller was "pushing and pushing me to talk."

    They said Miller also asked for their Instagram handle.

    That evening, Miller erupted at the child's mother several times, she said. At one point, the mother — who dresses in an alternative, Goth style — joked that she always looked "like a vampire."

    She said Miller started yelling, "Do you want to drink my blood?" and pulled down the collar of their shirt, exposing their jugular.

    Miller blew up again when the mother used the word "tribe" to refer to her friends, screaming that she was racist and accusing her of cultural appropriation, she said. She also recalled Miller saying her child was "a mystical being" who was more powerful than their mother and who "would be lucky to have Ezra to guide and protect them."

    The next day the mother encountered Miller at a local music venue, and they apologized for their outbursts, she said.

    In April, Miller visited the local music venue again. By this time, both the mother and the child had heard about Miller's arrests in Hawaii and said they felt wary of the actor.

    The now-12-year-old said that at the venue, Miller pressured them into sharing their phone number.

    Miller again asked the child to stay at their farm, offered to buy them horses, and brought up the idea of paying for their design school.

    The 12-year-old said part of them wanted to believe Miller. "I did want it to happen. It sounded perfect," they said. "But it was also just very wary and uncomfortable and didn't feel safe."

    The child last saw Miller on June 4, when Miller showed up at their apartment building dressed in a cowboy hat and boots asking to buy horses for the 12-year-old. It was four days before TMZ broke the news that Tokata's parents were seeking a protective order.

    What the actual f***

  • Aug 4, 2022

    Last points I'm going to post:

    Some people who have recently interacted with Miller said that they believed Miller was a good person and that their behavior was indicative of mental illness.

    Russell Smith, a producer of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," told Insider he was "concerned" about Miller but declined to speak further.

    Legal documents filed by Tokata's parents said that in April, family and friends of Miller and Tokata discussed staging an intervention and looping in Warner Bros. But Warner Bros. and Miller's mother, Marta, backed out. At about the same time, the bandmate who spent time with Miller in Iceland said, Miller received a call from Marta on speakerphone in which she asked about their mental health.

    Friends said they'd wondered why Miller's family hadn't intervened more forcefully. "They must be seeing this stuff," one childhood friend said of Miller's parents

    But those who have known Miller for years told Insider the actor needed to seek treatment and bring back the person they once knew.

    "That's the person that I'm grieving now," the longtime family friend said. "They were always kind of different from other people their age, but not scary. We were really, really good friends. It's really sad."
