Accused cannibal Armie Hammer can't seem to take the hint and go away, instead deciding to remind us once again about the allegations made against him.
The disgraced actor was accused of sexual abuse and cannibalism and lost his career as a result. Instead of staying quiet and trying to at least let the public forget about his drama, he decided to star in a music video that poked fun at the situation. He made a cameo appearance in Georgie Leahy's music video, which was released on YouTube on Monday, but the world really could have done without it. The song, titled “Typical Squeeze”, is a parody of “Barbie” and pokes fun at the crime Barbie is accused of committing by crediting him as “Ken Cannibal.”
According to the lyrics, the song is about a rebellious woman who is not the “safe, good girl, typical oppression.”
The madness continues as the singer belts out the words, “Everyone has a little wild side.”
One scene in the video eerily flashes a Hummer riding in the back of a Barbie-doll-like convertible. When the blonde singer, who parodies Barbie dolls, drives him around in her car, he rolls his eyes and makes a creepy expression.
The rest of the video includes close-up shots of Leahy's butt in latex booty shorts.

In Hammer's opinion, perhaps degrading yourself by appearing in a video with a skimpy, trashy blonde isn't a wise choice at this point.
The singer provocatively sticks out her tongue while applying body paint to her body, smears paint onto her bare chest, and creates art by drawing on her butt and smearing it onto a canvas. This all happens after she seductively strokes the microphone stand.
Hammer's return to Hollywood was heralded by the launch of the “Army Hammertime Podcast,” and that was bad enough.
This video fuels rumors and makes it easy to believe that he is a slimeball. If this is the way to restore his reputation, it definitely won't work. (Related: Armie Hammer's mother gives him a very unconventional birthday present)
In the wake of Hammer's public scandal in 2021, his publicist and talent agency dropped him, and he was removed from several projects that were already in the works.
My guess is that his appearance as Cannibal Ken in this video did nothing to improve his situation at all.
