TWO-TIME Oscar winner Kevin Spacey has been accused  of being a “predator”, a court heard.

An alleged victim told the court the American Beauty star “thought he could groom me” and went on to “grope and grab” him in multiple alleged assaults.

In police interview footage played to Southwark Crown Court yesterday, the complainant, who cannot be named for legal reasons, described Spacey as a “slippery, snaky, difficult person”.

Spacey, 63, denies 12 charges, including sexual assault, against four men over a 12-year period from 2001 to 2013.

Recounting the alleged assaults in the early 2000s, the man told officers: “Over the years there were multiple times where he tried to grope me and grab me and basically make me feel very, very uncomfortable.”

He added: “Any time anyone else was around he would grab my hand and put my hand on his privates.

“I would say don’t do that. I don’t want to feel your k**b.
