“Age ain’t nothing but a number,” sang Aaliyah when she was just 14. At the time, her producer, R. Kelly would have agreed. But those lyrics didn’t age well for him. Kelly married the R&B singer shortly after the song was recorded. Aaliyah was 15 while he was 27. Her parents found out and had the marriage annulled. It had illegally listed Aaliyah's age as 18.

Aaliyah died in a plane crash a few years later. But for the next two decades, Kelly was accused of preying on teenage girls in the entertainment industry. The predator was finally pinned down, found guilty of a range of sickening crimes. And sent to jail for thirty years.

But Kelly isn’t the only famous person who got away with disgusting behavior for far too long. As Redditor u/Pranav_p_n found out when they asked people to name creepy celebs who have hidden behind their fame.

Are you implying that sending teens to terrible facilities that abuse them is a bad thing? Or was it the inappropriate relationship he had with a patient? Or his first wife alleging physical abuse? For me it's the exploiting people in their most vulnerable states for tv ratings and feeding their addiction for better content.

Phil McGraw doesn't have a Psychologist license. McGraw stopped renewing his Texas license to practice psychology in 2006; he has never had a license in California, where his show is taped. In 2002, the California Board of Psychology determined that, because McGraw's television show was more about entertainment than psychology, McGraw did not need a license.

I can't stand Dr. Phil. He's just an Oprah protege' who she decided would be launched to fame on the exploitation of others. While exploiting people to make money in entertainment is common, though still wrong, it crosses a line for a supposed mental health professional to do. I have zero respect for him.

I always hated Dr Phil. And Oprah. And that entire genre of trash TV, that exploits people's problems for ratings and therefore cash. I just find it amazing the way that the entire NPC culture (people whose opinions always match the dominant mainstream TV creators' opinions) loved loved loved Dr Phil until they found out he's a Republican. But oooooh, the love and admiration for the all-time king of daytime exploitation, the founder of the genre, St Phil Donahue.

    In the US, that's so often the case, especially if the accused is famous, well-liked/admired, & wealthy. They're painted as liars, just after $. & Especially the women accusers. The accused, if he admits to having had sex with a woman who says she was SA,* he'll claim it was consensual. Not surprisingly, a lot of the public - including women - will be of the opinion that the woman enticed him, sometimes by dressing provocatively, as part of a set-up to get $. I'm sure some ARE liars & after $. But I tend to give more credence to accusations against prominent sports figures. [NOTE: I'm in absolutely no way saying the following applies in all cases.] In the US, young athletes (sometimes starting as early as middle school, then thru high school) showing tremendous talent & with outstanding success on the fields/courts, leading their teams to school championships, often are catered to, have their every want/whim fulfilled, receive special privileges, have any bad behavior excused (boys will be boys, you know) or covered up - teacher's have even been pressured to raise grades so the student athletes will meet the grade requirements for playing sports. And in colleges it gets worse. I don't know how much it happens now but in recent memory when highly sought after high school athletes were invited to the various school campuses to see what campus life is like (& to get the hard sell on signing with the school), it's not been unheard of that very attractive female students are assigned to give them the campus tours. Supporters/boosters of colleges have been known to break rules, giving college athletes cars, money, token summer jobs in their businesses, etc. They may get enrolled in crip courses in order to keep their grade averages up . [When I was in college, the "student" athletes were housed in a separate dorm (I never saw pictures of the inside but supposedly it & the rooms were among - if not nicer than - the best dorms of the general student population.) near the practice facilities. They had special meals (as if they were eating at a pro team's training table), enforced study periods, tutors, & escorts to ensure they actually attended classes.] If they then advance to the pros & are successful, some are practically worshipped by sports fans + they can get paid unconscionable amounts of $. So, from their childhoods they've been taught they're special & are entitled to anything/everything they want & will get it - or it's ok to take it - sometimes including women. *(D Trump once denied a SA accusation, saying he'd never had sex with the woman & never would - she wasn't that attractive.)

    The hospital (Stoke Manderville) knew what he was doing, but they were getting a lot of money for charity from him. They gave him the key to the morgue, a job as a hospital porter, and turned a blind eye to complaints from patients.

    What do Charlie Chaplin and Charles Dickens have in common? It’s a lot more sinister than just their first names. Or their classic celebrity status. Both adult men were in relationships with very young girls. Both got them pregnant before they turned 16. It was a primitive “practice” that wasn’t always frowned upon back in the day.

    But in the age of #MeToo and modern times, there are somehow still grown ass men who are not only “dating" minors. They're marrying them too. It might sound sick. And it is. But in many countries and some U.S. states, it’s actually legal. Countless organizations are working to end child marriage.

    “Dated A 12-Year-Old And Got Her Pregnant”: 30 Beloved Celebs That Deserve To Be Canceled Hugh Hefner.

    medurevengea
    "Struggling gravely in her early life, Marilyn Monroe was desperate and had nude photos taken. She was so embarassed by what she needed to do for money she signed the forms with a fake name. She asked the photographer to promise he would take the photos in a way no one would recognize her. She was paid $50.

    Years later, Hugh Hefner obtained her nudes without her consent. For $500 he bought her nudes and plastered them on the first ever issue of Playboy Magazine. He sold 50,000 copies. Marilyn was not paid a cent, as Hefner knew she did not consent to this.

    Decades before his death, Hefner paid $75,000 to have his dead body buried in a grave next to Marilyn’s.

    Afterall, the success of Playboy was due to the sex crimes Hugh Hefner committed against this woman he sexually exploited and violated."

    If Marilyn Monroe had signed the standard photographer's model release, Hefner did not need her consent - she had already given it. The exact purpose of signing such a release is to give consent to publication of the photos taken. And this distracts attention from the dozens - hell, hundreds - of truly sleazy indefensible things Hefner went on to do.

    Again, inaccurate. She would never had the rights to the photos, she sold them at the time in return for the fee, she was simply modelling. It would have been expected that they would be made public - hence her hiding her face. Hefner was sleazy enough without this BS..

    UNICEF estimates that around “650 million girls and women alive today were married before their 18th birthday.” South Asia is home to almost half of them, with 285 million child brides. And sub-Saharan Africa has 115 million women or girls who walked down the aisle as minors. Child marriage is on the decline, but not enough is being done to eradicate it completely. In 2016, the United Nations revealed that if current trends continue, we could see a billion child brides by 2030. Scary.

    The comments about her age got a bit confusing so I looked it up. According to Wikipedia (may be sketchy, but I didn't want to buy a whole biography, so here we go) her name was Lita Grey, and she was Chaplin's second wife (his first one was 16 when they married): "By her own account she first met Charlie Chaplin at the age of eight [...], and first worked with him at the age of 12 [...]. At the age of 15, she met Chaplin again [...]. Still a child of 15, she was initially cast as the leading lady in the film, and then-35-year-old Chaplin started a relationship with Grey." So he may not have been actually grooming a 12YO, but definitely slept with a 15YO, married her because she got pregnant (also on her Wiki-entry - he might have faces rápe charges otherwise), and it wasn't the first time.

When he was 28 he had another 16 year old girlfriend living with him. He's very lucky he died before #metoo blew his s**t up. He should be remembered as a p***phile and not an actor.

    I feel I need to keep reiterating this: pedophilia is attraction to PREPUBESCENT. 16 has gone through puberty; therefore he may be creepy but not a pedophile. People need to stop using specific terms when they don't comprehend the meaning.

    Jerry Seinfeld had a teen gf when he was like 35. And now all he does is whine about cancel culture because people don't laugh at his jokes anymore. His comedy is just really dated, its not the cancel culture.

    Also pretty much every cool rock star from the 70s were statutory r**ists. I love a lot of those bands but ick.

    It's usually the mediocre, older male comedians crying about not being able to tell the jokes that actually want to tell because of wokeism or cancel culture. What edgy jokes is Seinfeld trying to tell considering his act has always been milquetoast? LMAO. Listening to actually funny comedians make fun of these turds for whining about cancel culture is such a cure.

    If you think the problem is isolated to Asia and Africa, you’re wrong. Child marriage was legal in all 50 U.S. states right up until 2017. And was only outlawed in Washington, Virginia and New Hampshire this year. Men are still allowed to marry minors in 37 states. Almost 300 thousand young girls got married between 2000 and 2018. Some were as young as 10. Most married adult men. Those are some sick statistics from Unchained At Last. An organization working to end child marriages.

    Unchained partnered with Quest Research & Investigations, Kroll, Quantitative Analysis, and McGill University to investigate how many child brides there are in America. The researchers got hold of marriage-certificate data from various U.S. states. And checked the ages of everyone that tied the knot between 2000 and 2018. They published this study in the Journal Of Adolescent Health. And revealed some disturbing facts that many might not even be aware of.

    He and others like him, also love to talk about how "patriotic" he is. Failing to mention that he created a situation so that he would not get drafted during the Vietnam War. My birth father and my dad, both served in Vietnam. You know which musicians did actually serve during that time: John Fogerty, Jimi Hendrix, John Prine, Kris Kristofferson (went through and earned a Ranger tab), and Ray Manzarek, not deployed, but still served. Also actor Dennis Franz actually served "in country", said it was the darkest time of his life. And Muhammad Ali refused to serve, refused to run and hide, and served time in prison for refusing to be drafted. But at least he stood by his principles. Ted Nugent is just coward.

    From what i know about his trials things were not as conclusive as they seemed. Lots of kids came out saying their parents made them lie. Including another child actor the one form home alone. I think the dude was suffering form some f****d up trauma and wanted to relive his childhood. I mean it is still sick but not pedo kind of sick more mentally insane kind of sick. If he did diddle kids F him but i don't think he did based on the evidence and the contradicting witness testimonies.

    If people like his music then let them. There is no point in "cancelling" him now. If someone buy's his music, Michael doesn't get the money because of the dead thing. It's his heirs who see any benefit and AFAIK they are not creepy pedos (though I honestly don't know much about the others)

    Michael Jackson was never convicted of anything. All accusations were based on suspicion and innuendo. The question in my mind is why are people still vilifying someone with zero proof, long after their death? But hey, he was a little different, so lets just assume he was a pedo. Seems fair.

    And for the record, your crappy secondhand stories like this are EXACTLY the problem. There is literally zero evidence he ever did anything wrong, but he was rich, and he was black, so break out the pitchforks and torches. In fact, there is more evidence suggesting that he was framed than there is that he did anything illegal.

    "Leaving Neverland" is a Netflix documentary about two of Michael Jackson's former child "friends" who are now adults. They're interviewed extensively about their experiences, as are others, and you will not come away from that viewing experience feeling the same way you did before. If you experienced childhood SA or know anyone who did their stories will ring absolutely true. Their experience of, as a child, rationalising the abuse as something that just happened between friends - a defense mechanism. Only realising how wrong it was when they were triggered by their own children or children in their lives reaching that age. The discussion around dissociative states (such as watching the abuse happen from outside their own bodies),. These are textbook reactions to to CSA. They weren't paid. Sharing opened them up to ridicule, attack, denial and shaming. They had no reason to lie. He wasn't convicted, but there is no doubt in my mind he was guilty.

    "They had no reason to lie. He wasn't convicted, but there is no doubt in my mind he was guilty." This sounds unhinged to me. Your argument is the witnesses don't know better i know better than them? You are right about the consequenses of SA but stop projecting the experience of some on ALL. Yeh it is INSANE. I hope you never do jury duty. Also watch 12 angry men and learn about reasonable doubt.

    Nevada tops the list with 17,403 girls married as minors between 2000 and 2018. The researchers said “Minors—even highly mature 17-year-olds—have limited legal rights and therefore can easily be forced into marriage or forced to stay in an unwanted marriage.” They added that the impacts were devastating. 

    “Girls in the U.S. who marry in their teens are more likely to drop out of high school, never graduate from college, and end up living in poverty, and they are at greater risk of psychiatric disorders,” noted the study.

    The women he dates can make their own decisions. If he wants to date younger women and they're consenting adults who are we to judge? If no one is getting hurt or breaking the law, I say we all mind our own damn business.

    The whole age disparity outrage thing (excluding minors) is so overblown but I think it's more about the fact that he almost exclusively dumps them when they turn 25. It's just a weird pattern.

    Leonardo DiCaprio should not be on this list. People are allowed to date and fall in love with whoever they want to. As long as it’s two consenting adults, it’s none of your business. I actually think this whole article is extremely poorly written and basically in most cases just slander. Shame on BP for publishing it.

    Unchained At Last says child marriage is like giving predators a “get out of jail free card”. Most states have laws against statutory rape. But in many cases, sex with a minor becomes legal within marriage. The organization said, “At least 34,943–40,224 marriages since 2000 occurred at an age or with a spousal age difference that should have constituted a sex crime under the relevant state's law.” In about 80% of those marriages, sex between the parties became legal once a marriage license was issued.

I am from Argentina and he is so loved by a lot of people when the old turd is such a p**o creep shielder and at the same time gave continous support to the worse corrupt goverment the country had (Kirchnerism) wich doomed our generations and our future in so many ways.

    Ironically if someone deserves at least a small vacation through hell its that s**t stain and his whole stupid castle.

But that's not unusual in a Bishop or Cardinal. He did say the thing about NATO though: https://www.politico.eu/article/pope-francis-nato-cause-ukraine-invasion-russia/

    It is absurd to accuse someone of being a pedophile then not once mentioned the wrong doing or crime they committed. It's not okay to go around calling people such vile things and not be able to back it up. Let alone lie about these things for whatever reason. There needs to be laws and punishments handed down for doing something like this. A persons life can be ruined with just a few words and the people saying it should face consequences.

He sent multiple pictures of himself to prove his real identity. Franco admitted on Live! With Kelly and Michael that he had written the messages.[166][167] Though his actions were legal as the age of consent in New York is seventeen"

But over time I got to know about how he was exploited by almost everyone around him during the start of his career cause he was literally just a child then and I felt so bad for him. I know he has had some not so great times over the years, being hated on by people and all that, but it looks like he really turned his life around. And today (yesterday?) he had his first baby! I still don’t follow him or anything but I’m so happy for him!

    Actually, the strange thing is how much Zeppelin has faded. For almost 30 years, Stairway to Heaven was the most popular rock song of all time. It now misses the top 100 most streamed songs of the 20th century. Personally, I only ever really liked Stairway, Kashmir, and Immigrant Song (and yes, that's trying to not demote them for being insanely overplayed. Except Immigrant Song. I could listen to that on a loop.) Songs like Whole Lotta Love, Black Dog, Ramble On, Goin' to California, etc., were pretty much just trash for stoners to me.

    ? Barely out of college? As in in early 20's at least? Good thing this idea of older, successful men dating younger women is confined ONLY to the famous, huh?

    "Barely out of college" is a funny way of saying "legal consenting age"

    Yep, legal. But if you read the whole thing you'll also notice the power dynamic thing - that IS creepy even if both parties are of age, even if there isn't a huge age gap.

    I think this list shows how misogyny is baked into the culture. We're FINALLY starting to recognize and challenge it. I honestly think a lot of men, especially the older dudes, are so confused because they've never seem women any other way. Check out some of Shirley Temple's early movies. Basically movies made for pedos.

    Victor Salva - he may not be beloved but his Jeepers Creepers films are popular despite the fact he's basically living out his fantasies of hurting young boys through them.

    Prior to JC he was in prison for sexually assaulting a pre-teen boy on the set of one of his films about three men dressed as clowns terrorising a group of young boys one night.

    Pisses me off how people give him and these films (which are s**t anyway) the time of the day...

    “Dated A 12-Year-Old And Got Her Pregnant”: 30 Beloved Celebs That Deserve To Be Canceled Let me introduce you to some Filipino celebrities.

    Dolphy - Often referred to as the King of Comedy in the Philippines. Multiple generations grew up watching his comedic movies. A highly regarded legend despite the fact that it's kind of an open secret that he was a womanizer and preffered younger womanizer and fathered 18 kids with women that are wayyyyy younger than him. He remained active in until he died at age of 83. For the last 20 years of his life, he lived with his domestic partner who is some 30 years his junior. He is considered as one of most beloved figures in Philippines history.

    Vic Sotto - Another legendary comedian like Dolphy. One of most successful and well connected celebrities in Philippines history. In the 80's him and his buddies raped a 14 year old actress named Pepsi Paloma, even went on TV to apologize about it. He was able to escape punishment because his brother, a Senator, interfered. Just like Dolphy, he it is a known secret that he was a womanizer and fatherany children, but he pretty much stuck with women who were around his age, at least publicly. In the 90's in one of his TV shows, there was a child beauty pageant segment where then 40 year old Vic Sotto interview 8 year old Pauleen Luna. Luna became a successful actress in her own right and ended up working with Vic multiple times in her career. They started dating and got married in 2016 and fathered one child with her. Creepy circumstances in my opinion although there is no known evidence that grooming or abuse occured. He is still active today, his movies continue to be blockbuster hits, and he's one of most beloved celebrities in the country.

    What does him being filipino have to do with anything? I've always found it ridiculous when people mention skin tone for no reason. I also find it helpful to know how ignorant people can be when they say stuff like this. It lets me know a lot about a persons mindset and how they think. So I can be sure to avoid them completely.

    I very much disagree. Seriously, all morality aside, all laws aside, all common sense aside... I'd never ever date anyone that young. Who in their right mind would get into a relationship with someone so much younger, so immature? You'd have absolutely nothing in common. How can you even desire such a young person when we are biologically hardwired to protect and guide youngsters, not freaking breed with them?

    While dating a 19 year old when you're in your 30's is a bit odd, the age of consent in the UK is 16 so Henry Cavill didn't do anything illegal.

    Does the UK law have an age limit though? Age of consent in Germany is 14, but it's only legal if the partner isn't older than 21 years old. (Out of curiosity)

    For men who do this, it's about the desire for sex with a teenage girl who resembles a woman in terms of her body, but can be more easily groomed and manipulated into sex. That's all it is for them. Beyond sex, what could these girls offer these guys mentally? A 15-year-old and a 40-year-old are in two completely different stages of life. Meanwhile, the poor girl thinks it's true love, that he'll always be with her, that he'll love her forever, etc.

    Checked this up: After meeting on the “Too Young to Die?” set when he was 27 and she was 17, Pitt and Juliette Lewis dated from 1989 to 1993. Anyone can google this. Edit to clarify: NOT saying he's a pedophile cause I don't think he is but maybe not appropiate to date a 17 year old when you yourself is 27.

    Maybe before making that comment you should have taken your own advice and looked it up. The rail crash was in Staplehurst, Kent, in the south of England, in 1865, while returning from a trip to France. The crash happened 23 years after his first visit to the USA and 2 years before his second trip there.
