Corey Feldman says Barbara Walters clash on 'The View' when she accused him of ‘damaging an entire industry’ by calling out child predators in Hollywood was 'like a knife in the heart'
Corey Feldman recalls being shocked when Barbara Walters accused him of 'damaging an entire industry' by speaking out against pedophiles in Hollywood during a 2013 'The View' appearance: 'It was like a knife in the heart.'
"It was shocking to me that somebody who I admired so much and I looked up to so much could be so deaf and so just completely wrong and off base," he says during an interview about his recent exit from The Masked Singer. The Goonies and Stand by Me star appeared on The View on Oct 29, 2013, to promote his memoir, Coreyography, which details the sexual abuse he and best friend Corey Haim(who died in 2010) experienced while working in the entertainment industry in their youth. Looking back on the exchange now, Feldman recalls, "It very much gave everybody, I think, the feeling that she was either part of it or covering up for it, which is shocking and scary."
