Harvey Weinstein Breaks His Silence After Adrien Brody Calls Himself “Popsy” in Oscars Speech

Buy Me A Coffee

Well, if you had “Harvey Weinstein Reacts to Adrien Brody Calling Himself Popsy” on your 2025 Oscars bingo card, congratulations! The disgraced former movie mogul has emerged from his cell at Rikersโ€”metaphorically speakingโ€”to issue a response that nobody really asked for.

Letโ€™s rewind. Adrien Brody, known for The Pianist, Peaky Blinders, and having a face that always looks like he just remembered he left the oven on, took home the Best Actor award at the 2025 Oscars for his role in The Brutalist. While accepting his trophy, he decided to sprinkle in a little family love, shouting out his longtime girlfriend, fashion designer Georgina Chapman, and her two kidsโ€”whom she shares with a certain, ahem, incarcerated ex-husband.

โ€œI share this with my amazing partner, Georgina, who has not only reinvigorated my own self-worth, but my sense of value and my values,โ€ Adrien declared, proving that no man in history has ever stopped at just one compliment.

Then came the part that sent the internet into a frenzy:

โ€œAnd her beautiful children, Dash and India, I know itโ€™s been a roller coaster, but thank you for accepting me into your life. And Popsyโ€™s coming home a winner!โ€

Yes. Popsy. He called himself Popsy on national television. A word that sounds like either a discontinued soft drink or an off-brand grandpa nickname. The crowd, caught between tears and confusion, clapped politely. Twitter, however, exploded.

And then, in a plot twist nobody had on their 2025 bingo card, Harvey Weinsteinโ€”currently serving 23 years for being an absolute garbage humanโ€”decided to respond.

โ€œHarvey is happy for Georgina and grateful that his kids are being loved and cared for as they deserve to be,โ€ his rep Juda Engelmayer told IconicHipster.com, using the kind of PR-approved language that somehow makes Weinstein sound like a misunderstood Labrador retriever rather than, you know, Harvey Weinstein.

For those keeping track, Weinstein has been cooling his heels at Rikers Island since 2020, following his conviction on rape and sexual assault charges. In December 2024, it was reported that he also has leukemiaโ€”because life is full of plot twists, and apparently, karma has a sense of humor.

Meanwhile, Adrien Brody is now an Oscar-winning actor, a beloved stepfather, and, most importantly, Popsyโ„ข.

Moral of the story? Sometimes you win an Oscar. Sometimes your ex-wifeโ€™s new boyfriend shouts out your kids in his speech. And sometimes, against all odds, you find yourself issuing a press statement from prison about it. Hollywood, baby!
