During Tuesday, May 20, Cannes Ceremony that Spacey, 65, awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award, took the actor to the stage to transfer his thoughts and appreciation, with his words caught through X A video shared that day by Diversity.
“I tell you all the most positive vibrations, and as my friend Elton John once said, the reason this means so much to me (is) because I’m still standing,” said Spacey, who started ripping up during one part of his speech, before repeating John’s popular single lyric and single lyric in 1983. “I still stand.”
Spacey, which has been subject to sexual assault claims since 2017 when Star Trek: Discover actor Anthony Rapp alleged That space makes sexual advances towards him in a party in 1986, also recognizes the recent Kirk Douglas During his speech.

This was not the first time Spacey had expressed a public thanks for support received by John, 78, and John’s husband, David Furniture.
