This guy really takes the term "foot fetish" to a new and disturbing level.
Tarantino allegedly paid a woman working at a strip club a staggering $10,000 to lick her feet until they looked like "prunes."
Why Quentin... WHY?
From Daily Mail:
Lowlife, who also goes by Page Rad, reveals he watched Tarantino's bizarre interaction with an unidentified woman from a CCTV monitor 'out of curiosity.'
'He's sitting down, she's about to do her little… take her top off,' Lowlife claimed. 'And he gets up, throws her on the f**king seat, takes her boots off one by one, both shoes, just starts licking the bottoms of her feet, sucking toes.'
After about 30 minutes, Tarantino stopped and Lowlife remembered the dancer's feet looking 'like… you know when you take a bubble bath? Like prunes.'
'I think he gave her 10 Gs,' Lowlife told listeners.
Tarantino's films frequently feature close-up shots of people's feet.
Because of this, he has even been forced to address his alleged foot fetish before.
Speaking to GQ in 2021, he said: 'There's a lot of feet in a lot of good directors' movies. Before me, the person foot fetishism was defined by was Luis Buñuel, another film director. And Hitchcock was accused of it and Sofia Coppola has been accused of it.'
Back in 2020, Brad Pitt referenced the alleged foot fetish while collecting the award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
Upon receiving his award, Pitt quipped that the director had 'separated more women from their shoes than the TSA' and thanked his co-stars, 'Leo [DiCaprio], Margot Robbie, Margot Robbie's feet.'
I find the act of licking someone's feet excessively until they become waterlogged and resemble prunes to be more than just a fetish; it seems like an obsession.
While Quentin Tarantino is undoubtedly a renowned director, this particular behavior of his unsettles me to such an extent that I don't believe I can watch any of his movies without being reminded of this bizarre fetish.
