What Bentley Kyle Evans Taught Me About Hollywood Quid Pro Quo Coercion: The Casting Couch
When I hear the phrase “casting couch”, I think of an old creepy guy in front of a camera and me sitting on the couch. He turns off the camera after my audition saying something a long the lines of "I'll make you a star, I'll discover you, I've discovered so and so in the past, etc" then lean in with unwanted physical advances. But for me, I dont think my relationship with Bentley registered to me as a quid pro quo coersion (sexual harrassment) because firstly, I'm just now learning the term and lastly many people say that's the only way to make it in entertainment. Bentley included. I didnt know it was wrong until just now. Bentley made it a bit more personal by meeting me in a private yet luxurious establishment (Beverly Hills Gravitas) for lunch so I lowered my guard. This lived experience revealed to me that manipulation takes many disguises. As my current read "Hinds Feet on High Places" by Hannah Hurnard states. The Shepard warns Much Afraid "When you get to the places which you dread you will find that they are different as possible from what you have imagined." My affair with Bentley Kyle Evans, a married Hollywood producer, opened my eyes to just how alive quid pro quo coercion still is in today’s industry—and how it thrives under the guise of mentorship, opportunity, friendship and even love.
