“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.

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

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.

    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. My three year old brother was in hospital while he was there, but mum never left his side.

    In 2012 his grave/headstone was dismantled. From the BBC website - "The family spokesman said: "Out of respect to public opinion, to those who are buried there, and to those who tend their graves and visit there, we have decided to remove it."..... It had also contained the words - "It was good while it lasted"... The memorial was vandalised after his crimes were revealed and, at his family's request, the headstones were removed and later smashed and thrown into landfill.

    Kids in the UK knew. We all did. You just had a feeling about him. I had an uncle like that - we just knew never to be alone with him. Which makes it all the more reprehensible that Savile was left alone with sick kids. And their parents were unlikely to believe the children because he was feted as some kind of hero. I was in hospital in York at the time he was most prolific, and nearly got transferred to Leeds Gen because of my illness. I'm thankful I didn't have to go there.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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

    Jimmy Page is a confirmed p**ophile and abuser and Robert Plant openly admits to being involved in some unsavory stuff as well. Their legacy is pretty much completely intact and it's never really brought up.

    No he is 100% a creep. Hooked up with multiple assistants barely out of college when he was 40s+ and had an incredible power dynamic over them. Mental abuse and gaslighting. Google Erin Shade. And she’s just the one who spoke up

    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.

    Henry Cavill dated a teenager and I never see people bring this up. Also Prince groomed a child and abused her into her adult life.

    Unfortunately, I think men who aren’t willing to date super young is the exception not the rule. It’s such horseshit too, it’s about their ego and power dynamics. No, she’s not “so mature for her age,” you absolute s**t stain.

    At least college girls have basic decision making skills, even if their decisions are unwise.

    Pretty sure this is solely based on rumors and conjecture. Sh!t flies when you're going thru a contentious divorce.

    “Dated A 12-Year-Old And Got Her Pregnant”: 30 Beloved Celebs That Deserve To Be Canceled Charles Dickens. In his mid 40’s, he began a relationship with a 13 year old girl. He stuck his wife in an insane asylum so she wouldn’t get in the way of his fun. He didn’t allow their children to visit her. And he knocked up the 13 year old.
