That's no good for the CW-verse. He was a huge part of getting that empire rolling. I'm wondering if Kevin Smith will say anything on a podcast because he has had Andrew on as a guest before.

There have been a few MN politicians that have been accused lately. I'm sure you've all seen the continuing allegations against Al Franken.

He always plays such creepy characters, but maybe he is creepy in real life?!

I also renamed this thread, these aren't really "sex scandals", it is harassment.

Time names hollywoods sexual abuse whistleblowers for its 'person of the year' award.

Let's not forget Trump's tweet from last month:
Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named “Man (Person) of the Year,” like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!

Time's response to that tweet:
The President is incorrect about how we choose Person of the Year. TIME does not comment on our choice until publication, which is December 6.

I hadn't seen that response. Hilarious. Also, very sad.

Bryan Singer is going down now. His story sounds a lot like Spacey. Everyone in Hollywood knew he had a thing for younger boys.

Bryan Singer Sued for Allegedly Sexually Assaulting 17-Year-Old Boy, Singer Denies Allegations

The other day someone I know was legitimately annoyed with all of these victims coming forward about their harassers. She was saying how sexual harassment is so subject, like someone could look at you the wrong way and you could say your were harassed, and that these [women] are ruining these mens' lives and careers. Essentially victimizing the predators.
I hate when these topics come up because it really fires me up. I hope no one on here really believes that these victims are ruining these famous people's lives because they were looked at funny.
I wish that I could say that I can't imagine how difficult it would be to be in a situation where someone-usually a man- is in a position of power over you / your career and they take advantage of that power (regardless of whether it's a sexual nature or not) and you can't do anything about it because it may threaten your career or social standing in some way. I can totally imagine this. This happens all the time in the health care field just no one cares right now because no one involved is famous.
I think we can expect more victims to come forward too because two voices are louder than one and courage spawns courage.
One in four women are sexually assaulted (not just sexually harassed or even non-sexually harassed)- there are definitely more famous people that have been involved in a harassment situation. I hope this gives us regular women to make raise our voices as well.

Wow, that is a very silly thing for that person to say, but not in a 'haha, you're funny" kind of way, but a "dafug are you talking about?" way.

New York Times Says James Franco Event Was Canceled Due to ‘Recent Allegations’
Actress Violet Paley wrote on Twitter on Sunday: “Remember the time you pushed my head down in a car towards your exposed penis & that other time you told my friend to come to your hotel when she was 17? After you had already been caught doing that to a different 17 year old?”

On Tuesday, she wrote that Franco had called to offer an “an overdue, annoyed, convenient phone ‘apology.'”

She added: “I don’t accept, but maybe some other people’s lives would be made easier if he donated all of his earnings from ‘The Disaster Artist’ to @RAINN01,” a nonprofit group that supports survivors of sexual abuse.

Another woman, Sarah Tither-Kaplan, accused Franco of exploiting her in a film she made for him. “Remember a few weeks ago when you told me the full nudity you had me do in two of your movies for $100/day wasn’t exploitative because I signed a contract to do it? Times up on that!” she tweeted. “I 100% did not feel like I had a choice to say no.”

Oh no, that doesn't sound good for Franco at all.

Extra gross that one of these was a former student, according to the article.

Is it not nice to offer sex to women?
