(CNN – San Diego LGBT Weekly) — Jeremy Renner is another actor mired in speculation about his personal life, and the “Bourne Legacy” star has some pretty strong words for those who pry.

He tells the Hollywood Reporter on the conflicting gossip that he’s gay and/or dating starlets like Scarlett Johansson, “I want my personal life to be personal, and it’s not f*****g true.” That’s not all:

“And I don’t care if you’re talking about things that are true, you’re still talking about my personal life. How about I go peek in your window, take what underwear you wore last night, whose husband you were f*****g, and shove that in the megaphone throughout your neighborhood? How does that feel?”

Uh, we’re going to go with not so nice, Renner. Point taken.

And in case you surmised that the “Hurt Locker” actor doesn’t have a softer side, THR notes that Renner appears to have tears in his eyes when reflecting on his 8-month-old French bulldog, who died in March.

“He was my solution for being so lonely,” the actor explained.
