Corey Feldman has been talking about the abuse of minors in Hollywood for years. Somehow he became the punchline for jokes about child actors who never made it as adults.
He’s a raging asshole who makes hillariously bad music.
It's a new angle. Farrow didn't know that Barak was the one who introduced Weinstein to Black Cube.
And yes, it is completely batshit.
I am likely the only frequent poster here who has had occasion to hire private investigators on behalf of clients, but that operation is a million miles outside the mainstream
He’s a raging asshole who makes hillariously bad music.
Maybe he comes by it honestly, though.
Well, the raging might come from being abused and being shut down when her has tried to raise the subject of sexual abuse of minors in Hollywood. How did Barbara Walters respond to him just four years ago? "You're damaging a whole industry."
An open secret for years, and these are likely just the women who have gone on the record now. Expect a lot more to come forward.
Unlike with Weinstein, this is someone who late night comedians have had on their shows before and who is represented by agents and publicists that they work with. I'm expecting not many comments about this from the late night shows or other big-name comedians.
Spacey is costing these companies so much money in re-shoots that maybe it will lead to closer scrutiny of whom is employed in future work. If any actor has a reputation, he must be a risk, so avoid hiring him.
Louis CK was brilliant. I thought he was very funny and clever. I will now file him in the same mental cupboard as Morrissey - someone who spoke to me once but now appalls me.
It's so sad. As anyone who's followed him knows, he has two young daughters of whom he's super-protective. I feel so bad for them right now. He's clearly got issues but he's not another Weinstein, so my disgust is mixed with sadness. I gather that these actions are all from years ago, and that having kids changed him, but I don't know.
It is the hugely degrading behavior of an asshole. May he have fun explaining his actions to his children. There is no need to try and let him off as a changed man; just maybe he has learned to be as ashamed of his actions as he ought to be.
"having kids changed him"
"actions are all from years ago"
Maybe it is what makes it easier for you to have enjoyed his comedy, but these are the first steps to explaining this behavior away.
Plus let's not overlook how he has labelled this as all rumors for years. In effect forcing the women to put their names to the story. He is a complete bastard.
