Would you forgive her for taking credit for your stunt driving?
According to Jalopnik, Sulinh Lafontaine managed to fool a number of people into believing she was not only a stunt driver for Dwayne Johnson/Jason Statham-punchathon Furious 7, but the only female stuntwoman on the movie. But she has now admitted to fabricating the whole thing.
“In a post on her Facebook page, Lafontaine apologizes for “the fabrication, inappropriate and misleading claims I made concerning my involvement in the movie” which is to say basically all of her claims, including: She is a professional stunt driver, she was a stunt driver for the film, she drove basically all of the cars in the most interesting scenes, she’s one of the few female stunt drivers, she was the only female stunt driver in the movie, she is just simply grateful she is able to live her passion.” – Jalopnik
Here’s the apology in full:
With the utmost humility and regret, I wish to apologize to the Stunt Community, the Production Crew of Furious 7, and Universal Studios for the fabrication, inappropriate and misleading claims I made concerning my involvement in the movie.
My behavior was extremely inappropriate, and lacked the respect the Stunt Community deserves.
More importantly, I take this opportunity to apologize to Debbie Evans and all the stunt women, for attempting to take credit for their work on the movie, and I ask their forgiveness.
With sincerest regret and remorse.
-Sulinh Lafontaine
Would you forgive her? I imagine the other female stunt drivers are more than a little ticked off.
