“I Gave Up. I Got Bitter”: Denzel Washington Said It Took Him Years To Move On After Losing An Oscar To Kevin Spacey In 2000

“I’m sure I went home and drank that night. I had to,” he said, adding: “I don’t want to sound like, Oh, he won my Oscar, or anything like that. It wasn’t like that.”

“You know, there was talk in the town about what was going on over there on that side of the street, and that’s between him and God,” he said, seemingly referring to the sexual assault allegations Kevin faced later in his career, which he has since vehemently denied.

“I ain’t got nothing to do with that. I pray for him,” he went on. “That’s between him and his maker.”
