In a stunning revelation that has sent shockwaves through Hollywood and political circles alike, legendary actor Tim Curry has admitted to fabricating one of the most peculiar celebrity anecdotes involving Donald Trump's first wife, Ivana Trump.
The Fateful Elevator Encounter
The extraordinary confession emerged during Curry's recent appearance on the YouTube series 'Home Alone' together, where the Rocky Horror Picture Show icon recounted a bizarre encounter at Trump Tower that never actually happened.
'I told a lie about Ivana Trump for years,' Curry revealed with surprising candour. 'I used to claim I'd been in an elevator with her where she insisted she'd been in Home Alone.'
A Fabricated Hollywood Tale
Curry's elaborate fabrication suggested that during this non-existent elevator ride, Ivana Trump had proudly declared her cameo appearance in the beloved 1990 Christmas classic. The actor had maintained this fictional story for decades, convincing audiences and interviewers alike of its authenticity.
'The truth is, I never met her, and she wasn't in Home Alone,' Curry confessed, finally setting the record straight about the Trump family urban legend.
Separating Fact From Fiction
While the Home Alone franchise does feature connections to the Trump organization - with the Plaza Hotel, which Trump once owned, appearing prominently in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York - Ivana Trump's alleged cameo exists only in Curry's imagination.
The real Trump family connection to the film series comes from Donald Trump himself, who made a brief appearance in Home Alone 2 as himself, directing Macaulay Culkin's character to the hotel's lobby.
Why The Deception?
Curry offered little explanation for why he perpetuated the false story for so many years, leaving fans and entertainment historians to speculate about the motivation behind one of Hollywood's most enduring fabricated anecdotes.
The confession has sparked renewed interest in both Curry's career and the tangled web of connections between the Trump family and Hollywood, reminding us that sometimes the most entertaining celebrity stories are pure fiction.
