30 Of The Creepiest Things These Celebrities Ended Up Doing That Completely Shifted The Public’s Perception Of Them
It’s pretty typical for fans to put famous people on the pedestal. Whether it’s the lead vocalist of an all-time favorite band or an actress from the new popular series, they often become idolized. That’s why they might be viewed as those capable of no harm, which makes contrary cases somewhat shocking news.
So, it’s no surprise that when it comes to celebrity-related stories, their fans and critics likewise have something to say. That might be one of the reasons for the abundance of answers to the Reddit user ohwowsports6’s question. They asked the ‘Ask Reddit’ community about what famous people they consider to be creepy and the members didn’t shy away from making their opinions known. Scroll down to find their answers below.

Jared Fogle from Subway.
Started out with a mild cholesterol problem and ended up with a child molesterol problem.
Am I... Am I going to Hell? I laughed maybe too hard and if it exists, I think I might be going there...
Nah we will be fine, just a wicked sense of humor
Load More Replies...There's a documentary on YouTube about this. It's even more messed up than it looks on the surface.
That was just a crazy, crazy, crazy turnaround. He was such a hero for losing weight, then becoming a spokesman, then it was revealed he was actually an evil child molester all along. You can’t tel me he didn’t have those tendencies beforehand.
Trump has been acussed of sexual harrassment and a*****t by at least 25 women since the 1970s.
And yet the dumb portion of my fellow Americans voted this shitsnack into office.
...and may again in 2024. 50/50. Anybody in Europe want to adopt an American couple?
Load More Replies...Wait. This is a list about people who *turned out* creepy. Was there ever a time where this guy WASN'T creepy?
He also bragged about how sexually attractive (and not in a good way) his daughter was/is Also he repeated barged into the Miss Universe dressing rooms while they were changing clothes when he hosted these contests. And bragged about it.
Load More Replies...Anonymous posted Epstein’s flight logs as well as a list and info/details of people who went to the island. Well Trump and Epstein took turns ráping a 13 year old girl. It got “covered up” right before the 2016 election.
I don't understand how or why he has these people going crazy over him. He's so vile.
I would think maybe out of respect for assault victims maybe??? Not saying I follow that logic but IDK...
Load More Replies...Forget what Joe Biden has been "accused of" .... We've heard it right from Trump's mouth and seen the behaviors with our own eyes. Nothing is behind closed doors with him. Trying to equate the two is just absolutely absurd.
A liar, thief, adulterer, and instigator of armed rebellion, and the religious right still support him. Other than that, a very charming man who'll grap your female crotch because he can.
Woody Allen was hiding in plain sight.
Waited until his stepdaughter was 18 (if you believe that part), then started banging her right away! While still with her mom! And married her!
Of them all this guy stands out as the ultimate creep, with Roman Polanski coming in a close 2nd.
Other way around. Polanski is the worst creep. This guy comes close, though.
Load More Replies...I also just found out that he and his stepdaughter/wife adopted 2 children. I wonder what stories they will tell when the kids are older.....
And thinks he's the victim in all this! (Plus the allegations of what he did to his daughter. Only reason it didn't go all the way to trial is because the judge felt there was evidence there but the trial was, on balance, going to harm the child more than just getting her away from her dad). It's torn her and her siblings apart from one another.
Kanye.
There is no excuse for his propagating of white supremacist slogans and classic antisemitism about Jewish power, especially with the platform he has.
Yes he does. But that doesn't excuse the racism. Plenty of people with mental illness aren't racist.
Load More Replies...I mostly ignore him, but ... white supremacy? By a black guy? Does he, like, know what that means? About himself?
Right? Someone should tell him, but he wouldn't understand.
Load More Replies...I grew up in a totally Jewish neighborhood made friends with everyone my parents never ever had a problem with who I played with. Have you guessed it yet? I'm black nicest people I know !!!
I dunno, I can't fully judge him because he's clearly mentally ill. How he jumps from one controversial opinion to another, he's very easily influenced and I would put the blame more on people like Candace Owens taking advantage of his vulnerability.
Yes and no, I agree we should help him like any other person with mental health issue. But being mentaly ill doesn't mean you are irresponsible. A lot of people struggle, try and find help and improve. The problem is he refuses help, medication or anything that could give him more control over his life and what he says. You cannot put all the blame on his mental health because it justify medical violence.
Load More Replies...i thought he was holding his breath /j
Load More Replies...his apology is so bad lol. had to bring Jesus into it...
Load More Replies...Yes...it's called "delusions of grandiosity". And it's a symptom of illness, not a character flaw. In his case. Not in all, but in true Bipolar, it is.
Load More Replies...Kanye has mental health issues. Not excusing him, but seems to need help.
Gwyneth Paltrow.
She promotes wacky wellness trends and is obsessed with strange diets and procedures (like rectal ozone therapy). Even though she's a good actress, I find this obsession creepy.
I hated her as Pepper Potts (only thing I've seen her in). She sounds apathetic. Although maybe I'm biased because of her Goop nonsense.
Load More Replies...I love her except she isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. She starts her day with alkaline water with a lemon juice shot added which negates the water.
What a nice expression, 'the sharpest tool in the shed'. We in the Netherlands don't know it.
Load More Replies...rectal ozone therapy? is this a rich people thing I'm too poor to understand?
We aren’t going to talk about the IV she had hooked up during the interview? Beach literally starves herself to the point where she has to take an IV to get nutrients
Mahatma Gandhi would test his 'purity' by sleeping with naked girls that were underage and related to him.
Yeah, was forcing family members to sleep naked next to him to prove how he cannot be tempted. He was also a sneaky racist, psychopathic and egomaniac . He went to Britain in order to make some deals with British government
Load More Replies...I hate how almost everyone in my country idolize him and act as though he’s done nothing wrong
As a kid, I watched the movie about him. He was really portrayed as a saint by the main role (don't remember his name). Never would have thought he'd do that.
That's just one of the bad things he's done. He makes Pigs look like saints.
Don't use "pig" as an insult. That's not right, pigs are social, intelligent, friendly animals who (it is who, not that) enjoy playing, running, mudbathing and almost obsessively seperate feeding areas from places to conduct bilogically unavoidable emissions. Pigs are cool, we insult THEM instead of the humans aimed at.
Load More Replies...That's just the sexually inappropriate part mentioned about him. The fact that he hated black South Africans so much that while in South Africa he demanded separate entrances for black people and Indians is often brushed under the carpet as well as his blatant refusal to share a prison cell with black people because according to him, they were inferior to his people. Yes, some of his political ideas have merit and relevance but the man was racist and bigoted who held some really problematic views and encouraged the glorification and continuation of the caste system in the subcontinent that made millions of people slaves of those belonging to the upper caste Hindus. He believed untouchables should remain untouchables and the fact that this man is valorised while having endorsed and participated in such systemic oppression is extremely unfortunate.
While he did good things for the people of India suffering under the yoke of British Colonialism, he also held very racist views against black people. It's a lesson to appreciate the good people can do but to not idolize them totally. The balance of their acts still must be carefully assessed.
Tom Cruise.
Scientology abuses people quite a lot, read more up on the survivors' accounts (non-famous people) and you'll see why he's creepy.
Christian Bale, he said it was an inspiration for him when he was preparing for American Psycho
Load More Replies...I hated him even before the scientology stuff. He's always had this thread of nastiness in all his work. (It worked for him in Interview with the Vampire and that alien time travel one, which is probably why they're the only movies of his that don't make me want to vomit.)
You should watch him in magnolia, I swear it’s his real character
Load More Replies...I don't believe he's brainwashed by it for one second. He knows EXACTLY what they do, he simply agrees, has no problem with them, and is happy to benefit from it. Pretty sure he's lining himself up to take over from Miscavige and all the extra benefits he'd reap.
Load More Replies...Yet people still go to his movies, Top Gun Maverick has made 1.4 billion so far at the box office. There are celebrities who still talk positively about him.
Personally, TGM was much more about the actual jets than Tom Cruise. I love anything about fighter jets and flying, so i enjoyed the movi.
Load More Replies...When a so-called man considers his young daughter dead to him because she left his religion, I consider him worthless. No Tom Cruise movies, magazines or specials for me.
Harvey Weinstein.
Over 80 women in the film industry have accused Weinstein of sexual abuse acts.
He r@ped Rose McGowan and Annabella Sciorra, and torpedoed the careers of Ashley Judd and Mira Sorvino because they refused his advances.
Read the book “She Said” by Jodie something and Megan something… amazing piece of investigative journalism. It’s isn’t really about the people though, more about the journalists and investigation. Still, it has great insight into how he got away for so long.
Load More Replies...Peter Jackson actually hated Weinstein so much that he based the looks of the orc commander Gothmog off of Harvey Weinstein.
And everyone in Hollywood knew and kept it covered up for year, even made jokes about it at the Oscars long before the scandal. Hundreds of people knew and protected him from A-list stars to executives and agents.
It was pretty typical that the woman usually shouldered the responsibility and embarrassment when a man claimed that she came onto/seduced him.
Load More Replies...A bloated toad. Even if it was for the money/fame how could Georgina Chapman have married this cretin? She's beautiful and talented.
I'm just going off of what I just read, but I think she was probably pressured into it.
Load More Replies...This might be the only appropriate joke regarding SA. Insult the abuser not the abused. Kudos.
Load More Replies...How many of the Hollywood elite knew what was going on protected him. They now are screaming about Trump paying off an adult film star & other sexual misconduct. Got hypocrisy? I can picture quite a few celebrities & politicians sharing prisons cells together.
Bill Cosby, accused by sixty women of r*pe, drug facilitated sexual a****lt, sexual battery, or other sexual misconduct.
You know at first I was skeptical. I thought that there's probably a lot of vultures in Hollywood just waiting for a lawsuit to get their pound of flesh in. But then I saw this clip from The Cosby Show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBDRwiSZSBg), and I immediately was put off. It's right there, he's grinning as he admits it to the world, but nobody knows but him — delighted that his secret is hidden in plain sight.
They are censoring a whole lot of words on here. It’s annoying!
Load More Replies...Censoring the word A S S A U L T ? Because of A S S? You guys are I D I O T S.
I don't think it's because of the word àss...
Load More Replies...In his stand-up days, part of his act was a story about sneaking Spanish Fly (then thought to be an aphrodisiac) into women's drinks. This should have warned us.
You don't get your pound of flesh IN. You extract it. That's the whole point. It's from The Merchant of Venice.

Load More Replies...However the prosecutor did something illegal regarding evidence and because of that Cosby's lawyers were able to get his conviction thrown out because the evidence used to convict him was now tainted. Basically a over eager prosecutor screwed up badly
I believe they promised not to prosecute if he gave a deposition for a civil trial. Then (a later prosecutor, I think?) used that deposition in a criminal trial. So, they violated the deal. He is released on a technicality, not because he's innocent.
Load More Replies...There are still die hard fans that defend him anyway. It’s really divided a lot of people
I read No Lifeguard on Duty by Janice Dickenson written in 2002 and she detailed an account of an encounter and after I shared that with a few friends back then they shamed me and now look.
It’s interesting how people don’t believe women when they say they were a$$aulted or hara$$ed until the number of women goes into double digits.
R. Kelly, sexually a*****ted dozens of women.
YES!!! They were CHILDREN. Sorry, this is a hot button issue for me because the media tends to "adultify" Black girls, which minimize their trauma. Like, they are kids and should not ever be referred to as adults.
Load More Replies...Not defending him in any way. He's a total POS. But one thing he said in that interview was enlightening. That the girls' parents were often aware and essentially gifted them to him. There's a certain amount of responsibility that falls on their shoulders.
If you haven’t watched “Surviving R. Kelly” on Netflix I totally recommend it. It is a 3 part documentary. I thought the same about the parents too until I watched it.
Load More Replies...Watching his little breakdown in that interview gives me a certain pleasure I can't describe. "I'M fIgHtInG fOr My LiFe!" Good.
Jimmy Savile. Sexually abused hundreds of people throughout his life.
The stories some of the nurses who worked in the children's wards he visited have some stories about him that would make your toes curl, to the point they told children to pretend to be asleep before he turned up so that he would avoid them. He was also known to spend time down in the morgue for 'reasons'.
Didn't the singer of the s*x pistols call him out on his abuse and no one cared?
It was never aired until after Saville's death. Jimmy Saville was very rich and very litigious, people were scared to call him out. Lyn Barber, the British journalist, asked him about the rumours in an interview with him and he brushed them off. She was vilified for even asking him by certain people. The trouble was that, apart from the issues I've already mentioned, he was "smart" enough to do a ton of charity work, raised millions for good causes and therefore fooled a lot of famous and powerful people into thinking he was a good guy e.g. Margaret Thatcher and Prince Charles. None of this is an excuse for what happened, but it goes some way to explaining why he was only exposed after he died.
Load More Replies...I creeps me out that I actually wrote to Jim'll fix it so glad I never got my wish!
My wife claims she wrote to Jim'll Fix It...asking to meet Rolf Harris. Strangely, she got a reply...from Esther Rantzen.
Load More Replies...The bit about the morgue is from a Lee and Herring sketch. He had his hands full with girls in homes for troubled teens. Jim Davidson (himself a wife beater and a c**t) said that he genuinely believed nobody at the BBC knew what Savile was up to, because when you heard him coming everybody hid rather than talk to him.
The necrophilia accusations have been well documented by people on the ground at the time.
Load More Replies...Then why in the H*LL would he b allowed around children. I don't care HOW much money he donated
Because it was hidden, the general public knew nothing about it.
Load More Replies...so I didn't know who this was as an American.... but I watched that documentary that was done. O...M...G.... this guy was really bad, really, really bad!
Dan Schneider, he took advantage of young cast members on his Nickelodeon shows, and had a feet fetish.
I remember seeing random episodes of his shows and always wondering, "Why the hell are feet involved in this? How did this pass the editing/writers room?" Numerous people have to sign off and give notes on television production and NO ONE ever thought, "hey, maybe we shouldn't have this weird, feet stuff on our kids show all the time..?"
I've read Jennette McCurdy's memoir "I'm Glad My Mom Died" and reading it felt very cathartic as there were so many raw emotions. The mother was very abusive and manipulative. She also mentions her struggles with bulimia and what it was like working as a child actress. Apparently, Schneider forced her to drink alcohol when she was still a minor and made unwanted advances. Nickelodeon tried to pay her $300,000 in hush money so that she wouldn't expose Dan Schneider and his toxic behavior and she refused to take the money. Her memoir is worth reading.
Jared Leto is a massive creep and cult leader.
He has been accused of sexual a*****t a few times, and there’s compelling evidence against him, but for some reason not enough to get him charged.
He'd been harassing other actors on set in the name of ‘method acting’. He has sent his co-stars used condoms, anal beads, and even a dead rat.
This guy triggered my creep alert even before this info started leaking.
I would hope it was just an opened condom not a used one. But who knows. It's interesting that with the accusations nothing has come from it. Makes me believe no one has actually stepped up and gone to police. Which in turn makes me wonder whether it's actually true. In the past I could imagine people being reluctant to come forward but with the push since Metoo I'd have expected at least one person to come forward rather than unsubstantiated claims.
From the stories, it's pointed out as being a USED condom.
Load More Replies...Most of this is false. Can't talk about SA but there's a lot of fan-fic from Tumblr floating around where groupies and fans write about "encounters" with him and the rest of the band. The used condoms were unpackaged condoms with obvious holes poked in them. There was no dead rat, just a live one that Margot Robbie kept as a pet for a while before Guillermo del Toro adopted it. And the cult thing is a running joke from one of his band's songs. People constantly asked them if there were a cult so in their 2009 music video, they ran with a caption saying "yes this is a cult." Then years later when he had longer hair and once wore white, he was photographed with fans and they ran with the same caption and people have lost their s**t ever since.
I think he does something a lot more sinister because the guy doesn’t age
Bathes in the blood of virgins, perhaps?
Load More Replies...Typical personality cult s**t. He has a private island where his fans come for "retreats". They call him "prophet"..
Load More Replies...From everything I've read about him, the guy is a f*cking weirdo.
No one's mentioned Roman Polanski? Shocked quite a few people when his arrest/prosecution/flight from justice became news. He drugged and sexually a*****ted a 13-year-old girl.
When he won the Academy Award for best director, he got a standing ovation. Harrison Ford accepted the award on his behalf and made a special trip to Paris to hand deliver the award. Hollywood is full of p**o-loving scumbags.
These lead to the age old question - can you separate the artist from their art? Some can, some can't, and it's debatable as to whether you should even try.
My thought is, enjoy the art in a way that doesn't give profit to the a s s h o l e.
Load More Replies...But nobody could deny that he is a great director... you can't take a person's personality into his work
He fled the country because the prosecutor and judge were playing blatant political football with the case and he had no chance of a fair trial. It would have been better for all concerned (including him) if he had served time for what he did.
he literally pled guilty and had worked out a plea deal. You have no clue what you are lying about in defending a pedo rapist with a 100% fabricated false version of events to defend him

Jerry Lee Lewis didn’t just marry his 13-year-old cousin, he also had two wives who died under mysterious circumstances in the 1980s. Rolling Stone did a huge story that more or less said that he’d murdered one of them, but that as one of the richest people in that part of Mississippi the sheriffs etc. wouldn’t touch him.
No kidding, but Lewis' nickname as a performer was "The Killer". Because he just "killed" (overwhelmed) his audiences.
I don't know about the other wives, but I know for sure that in the 50's where he lived, it was common practice to marry your cousin. jerry-lee-...c0043a.jpg
Danny Masterson.
I'll never forgive him for ruining That 70s Show for me. I was looking forward to introducing it to the kids at the right age (especially because there's a certain line from Hyde that I used to quote all the time) but now just thinking about watching his stupid smug serial r*pist face on screen makes my stomach turn.
He supposedly assaulted those girls because of Scientology...or something like that. And That 70's Show was one of my favorite shows :(
Load More Replies...It's why I don't watch anything with a scientologist in it. So no 70's/90s show, no malcolm in the middle because the eldest boy is a scientologist and numerous other shows. Couldn't even bring myself to continue to watch cheers after Diane left because of that scientologist that came on the show. Only reason I finished the series was because she was dead.
Yeah, scientologists are trash, but that's pretty extreme.
Load More Replies...I'm still able to watch it because so much more of the show is hilarious, but a part of the enjoyment I used to get from the show is long gone and I can't watch it the same way I once did. I watch it because Red Foreman is althea greatest character on tv. But Masterson took away my favourite show, I used to watch new episodes with my dad who was reliving his childhood because he was their age at that time period. Part of that feeling is lost now.
Phil Spector. Absolute musical genius, but a very deranged S**T excuse for a person who abused his wife (Ronnie Spector) and kids, and shot a woman to death (actress Lana Clarkson) for refusing his sexual advances toward her.
He destroyed his own legacy. When he died in 2021 it was barely a blip on the radar.
Not to mention the crimes he committed against the wig industry.
Jerry Seinfeld dated a 17 year old when he was 38. That's very creepy.
By the way, and I had forgotten about this before, but does anyone remember the episode where they ogled a 15-year-old and Jerry defended it as being normal?
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gl7IXuxSSk)
Never watched the show because it had too many creepy people.
They don't know she is supposed to be 15 until after they look at her. It's not like she comes into the room and says, "Hey! I'm 15! Look at my boobs as I bend over right in front of your face!" JFC.
I don't think it hurt him any, she turned 18 weeks after they met and they dated for four years.
Met Jack Hanna once at a zoo charity. He had wandering hands when he took pictures with girls.
I know Jack through a family friend who used to buy animals from him. She bought them to save them from those canned hunt things.
Jack Hannah is a creepy animal abuser and it makes me so mad when people think he’s an American Steve Irwin. Because he’s actually Cruella Devil.
Nobody who hawks out baby animals for tv and film is a good person. Unless it is absolutely necessary to save the animal's life, no young animal should be hand-reared, especially if the reason for handrearing is for the purposes of making the animal "tame" and compliant.
Sounds like he had no ethics when it came to acquiring big cat cubs for tv appearances: "some tiger, lion and snow leopard cubs that had been Hanna’s fuzzy and adorable companions on TV neither came from nor returned to the zoo. In many cases, they were provided by backyard breeders and unaccredited roadside zoos and disappeared into private hands after those appearances." The Association of Zoos and Aquariums stripped the Columbus Zoo of its main accreditation partly in response to those revelations (not sure if they've gotten it back yet but sounds like they're cooperating). Lions, tigers and an unbearable year at Jack Hanna's zoo | AP News https://apnews.com/article/entertainment-lifestyle-business-columbus-animal-rights-e273beecec7a66ef9839ffdf5979a1de
She bought them to save their lives. He held hunts where they set the animal loose then hunted it down.
Load More Replies...I didn't know any of this. I used to love his shows on tv.
There has to be a better way to save animals from canned hunts than BUYING them... I mean... how is **funding** the canned hunt stopping anything? Great, now the jackhole has more money to get twice as much canned hunting in???
It was a bit disappointing when I read about his “true nature” awhile back. I had a bunch of his VHSs as a child and really admired him. I thought he was truly about saving animals and conservation. Well, I guess he was like that in front of the camera, but he was allegedly a monster behind the camera.
I visited the Columbus Zoo. He was at the front greeting people and signing autographs. When it was my turn he gave me no eye contact and picked up a napkin and drew a slanted line across it. It was not recognizable in any form as an autograph. At the time I assumed it was because I was black. Later I concluded he did it because he is an uneducated poser loser. I walked over to a trash can nearby and tossed it. I wished he had seen me. He didn't.
Marilyn Manson is a Nazi memorabilia collector and preys on very young women.
He do be looking like the wet paper towel for wiping paint brushes tho
My father was in the US Navy during WW2 and collected some Nazi memorabilia over the years. That doesn't mean he was a Nazi. Far from it. He was a history buff that collected memorabilia from both World Wars, the Civil War (both sides), Vietnam, and various other momentous events throughout history.
Guessing your dad isn't defending multiple sexual assault claims and never had "Kill all the Jews" hanging over his bed though. Evan Rachel Wood Exposes Marilyn Manson’s Nazi House of Horrors in Sundance Doc ‘Phoenix Rising’ https://www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/evan-rachel-wood-exposes-marilyn-mansons-nazi-house-of-horrors-in-sundance-doc-phoenix-rising
Load More Replies...Ok, I've seen many people called out for "collecting Nazi memorabilia". And I've know several such collectors: none actually promoted Nazism
If Manson were an otherwise normal person, maybe he'd be seen as merely a collector. But in this case, it's very much an add-on to the all the horrors he's been accused of.
Load More Replies...It could be worse. He could collect assault guns and shoot lots o people. Oh wait he's not an ordinary american.
used to love his music, but when Evan Rachel Woods came out with her story, I couldn't bear to listen to it again, couldn't separate the art from the artist, and that's too bad, because he did make some good songs (and good versions of some well known songs)
Hugh Hefner. The whole Playboy, sophisticated party guy image worked in the 60 s and 70 s, but didn’t last. When he was in his 80s still partying with 20 year old women it was beyond cringe and the whole Playboy mansion lifestyle turned creepy.
except there was a recent expose that many of the women were drugged and later blackmailed with pics from those events to participate in more. One woman drugged was made to have sex with a dog while he had someone take blackmail photos.
Load More Replies...Johnny vaugh said he was having dinner with them once and one of the girls started licking his ear and he said to her not that one, it's gone my hearing aid in, lol
Everyone was an adult... as far as I know (and please, feel free to announce it if I'm missing something) no assault allegations... and from what I remember, he even told off a person or two to not call women derogatory names - sooo... not really... a shift in perspective?
James Franco.
He preyed on girls through Instagram and flew to places where the age of consent was lower to have sex with 16/17 year old.
Yuuuuck, I had such a crush on him :/ this whole thread makes me sick, and they all still have so much money and power :(
Yea I used to really love him as an actor (still love Pineapple Express) but after this it is so hard to even want to see his face
Load More Replies...That's so gross. I was watching this documentary about Cambodia where they forrce young children into prostitution and apparently it was a big tourist attraction for old men in the USA, probably others, but f**king disgusting. Sure, it's legal, but what about ethically? How can you think that's OK? How can you plan a trip to go rape children?! 😡
I have always hated franco always seemed like he was the type of guy.
I lost all respect when I read he enrolled in college classes, didn’t attend/do the work, and expected the colleges to pressure the professors into giving him good grades.
Ezra Miller. They've gotta have something wrong in the head, and the fact that they didn’t lose their acting job truly upsets me.
Hope that young child they [allegedly] groomed is far away from them and back home.
Yeah. It’s people like them that perpetuate s**t about the LGBTQ+ community.
That is incorrect. Bigots perpetuate s**t about the LGBTQ+ community. Ezra Miller just gives them an easier target and more ammunition to hit it with.
Load More Replies...He apparently is getting treatment for his mental issues and is doing much better. Doesn't excuse it, but at least that is a positive step. That they didn't cancel his Flash movie, which was still in production while he did so many bad things, but did cancel the Batgirl movie (which even had Michael Keaton as Batman in it,) and it was DONE filming, is an indicator of how effed up things are in DC land.
Honestly I don't know what DC are thinking. I was stoked when James Gunn took the reins then super stoked when it looked like Cavill was finally going to get a Superman movie that (maybe) wasn't dark and depressing and then that hope was dashed :( Anyway, I believe that if we're serious about mental health that we should be willing to forgive the bad behaviour if it was triggered by that. To me, the question though is whether it really was or whether it's just a cover story.
Load More Replies...I don't want to see the Flash movie. I want to see a movie about all the stuff Miller didn't get fired for. Not only was there grooming, there was strangling people in bars, breaking and entering, having lots of guns around children and, IIRC, something about maybe running a cult.
And how is Warner F*****g Bros. feeling now, after firing Johnny Depp from their movies after he lost his case against The Sun (that rag!), now that they realize they kept a real creep? SMH. Must be terrible for these virtue signalling a******s.
I don’t know much about them, but I’m guessing they’re non-binary. Check the Google definition for it.
Load More Replies...yeah and the fact that ezra didnt get kicked out of that fantastic beasts movie but johnny depp did... like what
I don't think you should honour someone with their pronoun wishes when they are an outright violent person and abuser. HE needs to be in jail.
Pronouns are pronouns. Even if the person is an a*****e, it doesn't make sense to not use them

Kevin Spacey.
He seemed a little off to me at the peak of his career. Always liked his characters. I guess he's a damn good actor. Now I just see this predator though.
I've tried to separate the art from the artist, then watching a movie or show and just keep thinking back to to the creepiness.
I always hated him. Felt like I had to take a bath every time I watched something he was in. When the news came out I was just, "Oh."
Samehere. Never could explain or put my finger on it, but he always made my skin crawl through the screen
Load More Replies...I was half way House of Cards when the news came out; stopped watching, don't intend to ever finish it.
Watch the original British version instead. Really good.
Load More Replies...I've never fully understood the idea of separating the art from the artist. To me, the art is a part of the artist. They put something of themselves into it. If I can separate them in my mind, then they weren't very good.
He was one of my favorite actors. I was really disappointed (in him) when the allegations came out. And the way he responded was just weird.
Deciding to officially come out during the heat of his allegations was not a good look. Bad optics.
Gary Glitter.
His name is barley spoken nowadays, for a reason. His career ended after he was imprisoned for downloading child pornography in 1999. He was also convicted of child sexual abuse in 2006 and a series of sexual offences (including attempted r**e) in 2015.
He was let out of prison recently, then got incarcerated again almost immediately
he was originally busted in Vietnam for trying to buy a EIGHT YEAR OLD
Actually, at the height of his fame, his name wasn't spoken that much.
It was indeed. "Rock and Roll part 2" was used in the scene where the Joker dances on the steps.
Load More Replies...Look up rock and roll II you'll know it. They used it in sporting events and commercial forever.
Load More Replies...I recall seeing his group perform in the 1980's. A very charismatic man.
Alfred Hitchcock was a weird one.
Basically stalked some actresses and tried to control their lives; told them what they could/couldn’t eat, where they could/couldn’t go. He sent Tippi Hedren inappropriate Valentines letters. She claims he threw himself atop her in a hotel room and kissed her — and in her biography accused him of sexual a*****t.
I've seen posts on BP that had so much censored I seriously couldn't put together what was said.
Load More Replies...He also killed Tippi's career because she wouldn't sleep with him. He told her he would and he did.
Very sad. She was wonderful in The Birds and Marnie.

I'm kind of shocked nobody has mentioned Armie Hammer yet.
He’s tried to convince women he’s dating to get a rib surgically removed so he can eat it.
What he wants, though, is to own those women. He wants them to submit to him- not because he’s paying them off, but because they want to. It’s a sexual thing for him (like it is with many serial killers). But the willing submission I think is a huge part of the appeal to him.
didn't he also like severely bite women's' bodies, like left marks and drew blood and possibly removed flesh too?
For what it's worth, an ex of mine would often ask me to bite her (the harder the better) during sex. I wasn't really into it, but it was a major turn-on for her so I was happy to do it. I don't remember if i ever drew blood, but the teethmarks lasted for days sometimes. In his case it doesn't sound like the women wanted it, which is the part that makes it sick.
Load More Replies...Some women have had their lower ribs removed to get a smaller waist line. Believe me, if the price is right there are some doctors who will gladly perform unnecessary surgery.
Load More Replies...He's something else. All the hot one are psychotic. Chris Watts, Aaron Hernandez. Shame.
Right???? Go for the "cute" ones that treat you right. They're the real winners!
Load More Replies...isn’t this the guy from Death On The Nile (2022)? as much as I love the film, he does have a creepy vibe about him…
There was a series about the whole Hammer family. The cannabolism and weird s**t goes back generations. I couldn't watch all of it...
His name is Armand not Armie. But then your name sounds like a box of baking soda. Armie sounds like a 3 year old babies pet name. Stupid. Always irritates me. Ant Anstead is another one. It's Anthony. Sounds like the insect name or ant man from marvel comics.
I have an uncle named Anthony, but he goes by Tony. I always thought this was the only nickname name for Anthony. Well, until now, at least

Louis CK. He’d m*sturbated in front of female colleagues.
I think it's important to be explicit on the following - *non-consenting* female colleagues. As far as I read, it wasn't actually in the workplace, as could be inferred here.
No, I think it was in dressing rooms, which are definitely part of the workplace.
Load More Replies...I used to think he was funny enough, never a huge fan, but after the charges, his comedy hit differently. All the inappropriate raunchy stuff before could be chalked up to just comedy and likely made up, but now it's just -bleh- cause you know what he did.
Yeah, you realise "s**t, he had a LOT of material about jacking off"
Load More Replies...love his comedy, but can't help but think he would have escalated...had a neighbor who used to masturbate in front of me and other girls in the neighborhood...took him 7 years, but he eventually made a move...and, even as an adult it is traumatic...it is a power flex saying, "i can do this and there is nothing you can do about it"...
The only redeemable thing about him is that unlike Spacey, Kelly, Cosby, Weinstein, etc, he did actually own up to it in the end. I know that's worth very little, almost nothing at all, but it's something.
His initial apology, whether he wrote it or not, was pretty good, admitting that the women were telling the truth (an unusual response for these types of allegations) and demonstrating understanding of why what he did was wrong (including the power imbalance with young, female comedians), but he got a bit defensive and pissy about the whole thing later (can't remember what he said, but I recall it being pretty disappointing coming from the one accused who initially took responsibility). I hope this doesn't come across in any way as excusing his behavior with these women who looked up to him. It's just interesting comparing his response with those who reacted by calling the accusers liars.
Load More Replies...So did Benny Hill. A friend of mine auditioned to be on his show. She made the first cut. Then when she was asked to go to his office to say a few lines with him, he took it out and told her what he wanted. She walked out.
He's trying so hard to make a comeback. He will get no help from me.
False. Asking a Y/N question when No is not an option, does not mean Yes equals consent.
Load More Replies...I'm sure some wouldn't mind, but that is the kind of thing you do not ever assume.
Load More Replies...Ian Watkins. Absolutely horrific crimes, including sexually abusing infant children (to put it mildly).
What made it even worse was that alot of the mums let him because they were crazy fans
Looks like a couple of them got substantial prison sentences. I'd post the link but I already closed it and I kind of regret looking it up to begin with.
Load More Replies...The Town Called Hypocrisy is a horror video now. Just thinking about that MV makes me sick.
Matt Lauer.
Matt was a much-loved NBC presenter until his reputation was tarnished by sexual a*****t allegations.
Ron Swanson had one of those and never molested anyone
Load More Replies...He always came off as arrogant to me. I never did like the guy.
Yes, allegations, but worth noting that, in firing him for cause, NBC said "While it is the first complaint about his behavior in the over 20 years he's been at NBC News, we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident."

Zuck. Who'd have thought a young genius programmer who created a website allowing students to rate and compare their fellow classmates based on their looks would turn out to be such a weirdo...
When at college he stole enrollment information about female students, including their ID photos, and created, basically, a f*ck/marry/kill website that male students could access. The basic programming went on to be used in FB. The resulting decades have been Zuck trying to prove to us that he is a normal human, that enjoys normal human things, like a human.
Load More Replies...Mark Wahlberg. I hate that he still has a platform when he is a clear racist, disgusting.
I'm not a huge fan of Mark Wahlberg but it really bugs me that people keep bringing this up about him. Yes, he did some horrible things when he was younger. But he has apologized for those things and turned his life around. Our mistakes should not define us forever.
In 1986, a then 15-year-old Wahlberg and three friends were charged for chasing three black children and pelting them with rocks while yelling: “Kill the n*****s” until an ambulance driver intervened. The next day, Wahlberg harrassed another group of mostly black children (9 and 10 year olds) at the beach, gathering a crowd to join in racially abusing and throwing rocks at them. In 1988, Wahlberg attacked two Vietnamese men while high on the drug PCP. He called one man, Thanh Lam, a “Vietnam f***ing s***” and knocked him unconscious with a five-foot wooden stick, while punching another man, army veteran Johnny Trinh, in the eye later in the same day. Officers reported that Wahlberg used racist slurs to describe both men.
Load More Replies...He was charged for multiple racially motivated attacks as a teenager. Google it.

Andy Dick, for sexual a*****t and battery. But Andy Dick is famous for being an a**hole already. He was never an A-list actor or comedian.
What would his parents call him Andy?? Did they not think his initials would be A. D**k? Well, I’ve never heard of him anyway.
He's also indirectly responsible for Phil Hartmann's murder; D**k got Brynn hooked on coke (again!).
Michael Jackson, for his alleged sexual abuse of children.
Yeah but apparently he gets a pass due to his music.....disgusting.
A great example how money and fame can make you untouchable. Or at least it used to. (see: Harvey Weinstein, Donald Trump)
David Walliams.
Caught bringing underage girls into his dressing room a couple years + pulled multiple boys pants down on stage during his live shows. Heavy rumours of him being a predator. Also known to be an absolute a**hole to encounter irl. Like James Corden level.
Made me look, but this one really does not seem belong here. Inappropriate comments, sure, but sexual assault? Nothing to be found online, so I don't know why this poster has included him here.
because it is always easy to add sexual assault (whether alleged or not) because it means everything from actual assault to making a dirty joke that someone overhears and is offended by
Load More Replies...Calling everything under the sun “assault” is a slap in the face to ACTUAL rape and sexual physically assaulted victims. Defining assault as: being offended, hearing a dirty joke, to receiving a “male gaze” on the subway makes the word assault lose its meaning and lessens the seriousness of ACTUAL assault crimes. Having a guy at a bar bug you and ask for your number even after you rebuff his advances is not the same as rape or groping
i’m not super into pop culture and i’m on the younger side but growing up really liking james charles and shane dawson was really disappointing and gross to me
Isaac Asimov.
Self proclaimed Dirty Old Man who directed his perversity at female fans, secretaries, and graduate student researchers of his prolific non fiction, and not at women who had power over him, like editors.
The killer who gave himself the name "Jack the Ripper" was being equally honest and up front about himself. But that made neither of their approaches to women acceptable.

Leo Dicaprio.
He's reportedly “really bothered” by the joke that he's unwilling to date anyone older than 25. He is about a day off from breaking the under 18 barrier.
You can think whatever you want about this one, but he hasn't crossed any legal lines. If these women agree to date him, he is within his rights to have a relationship with them. And the idea of "he'd go lower if it was legal" is just bull. He has not broken any laws, so why assume he would? And.... if it were legal to date younger women, he'd still not be committing a crime - even if we all think it's horrible. The thing is, he doesn't hide that is preference is for women much younger than he is. Anyone entering a relationship with him already knows it has a cut-off date.
John McCrea (lead singer of Cake) creeps on underage girls. I'd heard rumors and just didn't pay much attention like a lot of gossip but then he weirded out on a friend's little sister at a concert. She didn't look older for her age, either. Actually the opposite.
JM is certainly an odd and cranky guy but I've seen nothing about him being a predator anywhere. He's pretty private, a bit of a d**k and an anti-celebrity of sorts.
If the MeToo movement has proven anything, these people are often hiding in plain sight.
Load More Replies...John Kricfalusi, the creator of Ren & Stimpy. He sexually harassed and groomed two of his female employees while they were underage.
Honestly, Ren & Stimpy is… not a children’s show. It’s amazing though
I adored Ren and Stimpy growing up. I just can't watch it anymore.
Load More Replies...John Travolta. I remember the whole scandal with John Travolta and his masseuse; that was pretty creepy.
Multiple (male) masseuses have accused him of groping them, attempting to coerce them into sexual acts, or paying them for sex circa 2000-2012.
Load More Replies...There's the Jeff Conaway story as well. When he and Travolta were filming Grease, the two got drunk one night, Jeff passed out, and according to his account awoke to find Travolta performing fel*atio on him.
Drake. Allegedly sent some really sketchy texts to Millie Bobby Brown when she was still under 18.
There is something very wrong with Drake. guess we will find out in a few more years.
Justin Roiland. Vile DMs he wrote to young women & teen girls emerged this year.
Supposedly, the investigation found that to be an unsupported allegation.
Bill Murray. He straddled and kissed a younger female colleague on the set of Being Mortal, leading to suspension of production.
Demi Moore and that video of her making out with an underage boy
They were both teens, even though she was majority age and he wasn't. 19 and 15 respectively. And he wasn't being molested, he was enjoying his birthday with a hot girl. Not exactly appropriate, but not child abuse/pedophilia.
Honesty I its not the age difference that is bad she was just legally an adult. 4 years isn't that much compared to the twelve between Beyonce and Jay-Z.
Megan Fox, sorry but drinking blood? no thank you
David Bowie : I love his work but he was involved with underage girls during his early years
From what I hear, Paul Walker was into his daughters friends (they were in high school)
From what you hear. So nothing you know. I hear you like little boys. I don't know but I heard it so it must be true.
Johnny Depp. The texts he wrote Amber Heard really makes me side eye him. I think Amber Heard sucks too though.
I largely put that last part to avoid the wrath of Depp stans that buy into the myth that he was abused and a victim of domestic violence. At one point, it did seem that way...but the more I learned about Johnny Depp, the more I realized he is truly a scary person. She obviously has issues herself, but there is no way he isn't a thousand times worse. It is scary how many people think he is a really good person still. I didn't know Depp also collected Nazi memorabilia. What a psycho.
Remember just because someone isn't a perfect victim of domestic abuse, doesn't mean they weren't abused. Not to mention there was a lot of straight up misogyny hurled at Amber Heard.
Please don't start the ''maybe he/she deserved it at one point '' train toward abusers victims
I don't blame him for that text one bit. He was RIGHTLY ANGRY. I mean ffs, this turdwoman was trying to destroy his career, and for what?! Not to mention the truth is that whilst Johnny was never perfect, he never laid a finger on Amber, and it was her that was abusing him, both mentally and physically. Whilst Johnny isn't 100% guilt free, I'm on his side rather than Turds. She makes a joke out of assault and DA survivors, and it's disgusting. As for nazi memorobilia, my dad collects that as well as Soviet military memorobillia, its an interest in wartime history, not that you ARE a f*****g nazi ffs...
"he was angry" are you kidding? that's your excuse for abuse? johnny abused her aswel, watch the courtcase.

Jim Carrey, just generally being creepy toward women.
Chris Brown is a woman-beating piece of sh*t. Sean Connery said it was okay to smack a woman if she was too uppity. John Wayne was an epic racist and homophobe.
I really don't like how many rumors are quoted as fact in this list. There's definitely some serious offenders, but let's not assume everything is 100% true
Erm I'm not a big fan of Gwyneth Paltrow but why is she on a list containing vile abusers and rapists? Bit much isn't it? putting her on there just because she sells wacky stuff online? Wasn't she harassed by Weinstein as well? Am I missing something or has she sexually abused people?
Glad Michael Jackson made one of these lists finally. I always get downvoted when I bring it up. Also? David Bowie. Look it up.
There have been celebrity abusers for generations, anything from killers to just creepy ones. And don't get me started w/the abuse of power either, it doesn't have to be sexual to be traumatic. In the era of me-too, it's natural we give accusations more value. That said, I'm worried about how little it takes to ruin a person's life/career. For me it's actually a relief when the accusations are at least confirmed, even if I like the person. I can't imagine what it must be like to be an innocent target. It's so very sad that most accusations turn out to be true.
