Actor Kevin Spacey denies sexually assaulting teen on Nantucket

Former "House of Cards" star Kevin Spacey stood impassively in a Nantucket courtroom on Monday before pleading not guilty to sexually assaulting an 18-year-old man at an island bar over two years ago, a charge his lawyer dismissed as "patently false." Spacey did not speak during a brief hearing in Nantucket District Court to face one count of felony indecent assault and battery, though a plea of not guilty was entered on his behalf.

U.S. top court snubs actress de Havilland's suit against FX Networks.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to consider reviving a lawsuit by 102-year-old Oscar-winning actress Olivia de Havilland accusing a Twenty-First Century Fox Inc unit of falsely portraying her in a miniseries about a famous Hollywood feud. The justices let stand a lower court ruling throwing out the lawsuit filed by de Havilland, a Hollywood star whose career began in the 1930s. She had claimed that "Feud: Bette and Joan," an FX Networks miniseries about the long-running hostility between de Havilland's fellow screen legends Bette Davis and Joan Crawford damaged her reputation by portraying her as gossip and hypocrite.
