Corey Feldman is responding to fan outrage, alleging he was left out of a tribute to Rob Reiner at the upcoming Academy Awards.
The actor, 54, said in a March 6 post on X that he was "not invited" to Sunday's Oscars ceremony to honor Reiner, who directed him in the 1986 film "Stand By Me." The Daily Mail previously reported that Feldman was not asked to participate in a planned tribute to Reiner at the ceremony scheduled for March 15.
Feldman, though, tried to tamp down fan outrage over his alleged lack of an invitation.
"I understand many believe [it's] due 2 being outspoken about the abuse I suffered as a child & the campaign 2 silence me," Feldman wrote in an all-caps X post. "However, this [isn't] about me! [It's] not my moment @ all! [It's] about the tragic loss of [our] friend Rob Reiner & his memory."
Feldman also asked his fans to "please take down any petitions" pushing for him to be invited to the Oscars, adding, "They [don't] need me there." He also said that he will "honor Rob my own way."
