Richard E Grant is getting reflective about his stint in the Spice Girls movie.

The Oscar nominee played music manager Clifford in Spice World, and in a new interview with the podcast Reign With Josh Smith, the British performer admitted that some of his peers in the acting world were aghast at his decision to accept the role.

“At the time, the amount of very grand actors who said to me, ‘how can you possibly be in Spice World: The Movie’. You whore!” he recalled.
