Victoria Pedretti says ‘well known actor’ made brazen sexual comment to her
Netflix actress Victoria Pedretti has revealed the explicit comment a “well known actor” made to her – as she shared a nude photo in defiance.
A popular Netflix actress outed a “well known actor” for making a shocking sexual comment to her.
You star Victoria Pedretti, who played Love Quinn on seasons two and three of the hit series, shocked fans last week after revealing a fellow actor has brazenly told her he had been “jacking off” to her “so many times”.
Pedretti, 28, exposed the story on her Instagram page alongside a since-deleted nude photo of herself, in which she could be seen standing in her bathroom.
In the caption, she told how it had been a year since the aforementioned incident.
“On my bday last year, a ‘well known’ actor walked up to me at a party and said, ‘I’ve jacked off to you so many times,’” Pedretti wrote.
She added: “I was shocked by the audacity. This is AFTER he expressed how much he RESPECTED me as an actor lol.
“Sometimes I enjoy modesty, sometimes I don’t. It’s a joke to think that my own modesty will protect me from any disrespect I may experience as a femme body.”
Pedretti has since posted a follow-up video to her Instagram stories today, in which she said she had recently spoken to the actor in question.
“Trust me, I told this person if I ever hear anything else in regards to him, like, then we have an issue,” she said.
She added, “I can handle it. I don’t need his career to get ruined because he said something really f***ing dumb.
“That post started with me wanting to post a nude. And then thinking about my birthday. Thinking about what happened last year, how wild that was.”
Pedretti continued, “So the main point was the nude. And then I was like, especially when it’s like, no matter what you do, people are gonna say terrible things, and they’re gonna like, be weird about the way they feel entitled to talk about women.”
The US actress is perhaps best known on a mainstream scale for her role in You opposite Penn Badgley. Pedretti was a lead role in seasons two and three, and appeared briefly in the latest fourth season.
She initially rose to recognition on the Netflix anthology series The Haunting in 2018.
