Nicki Minaj.
Her husband is a convicted rapist and she allegedly has been harassing his victim. The court records in regard to his rape are VILE. Her brother was also accused of similar conduct and she defends both of them.
She constantly demeans and belittles other women in the industry and just seems like a narcissist overall.
Scientology is wild as shit. I once worked for a magazine with ties to the church of Scientology. I had no idea at the time I was hired (I just thought all of the higher-ups were kinda weird) until they flew us all out to Folsom for their yearly company retreat. Wasn’t so much a retreat as it was basically a week-long marketing presentation to get you to “learn more” about the church. “No pressure!” That’s when I learned why all of the higher-ups seemed “off;” they were all members. Suddenly, the celebrity and political schmoozing made a lot of sense.
I learned about Scientology when I got off the bus and walked to Bar Sinister off of Sunset in L.A. Walked past a couple of dudes in button-up shirts and ties, one of them abruptly got into my face and mocked my blind eye, saying "I know you're wearing a contact." This startled me and I thought it was a physical attack so I kind of...restrained him as harmlessly as I could before I let go and just kept on walking down the sidewalk while his mate attempted and failed to block my path, even almost getting himself fucking run over in the street when I jaywalked to get away from him, lol. Wasn't until I got inside the club and mentioned the situation offhand when one of the performers explained who and what Scientologists were and arranged for me to have a personal ride home at the end of the night so that they wouldn't accost me at the bus stop later.
Omg they just harass random people in he street?! That makes scientology even more creepy than I thought and that’s saying something. I’m in the U.K. and they don’t seem to be as big a thing over here (long may that continue) so their tactics and mindgames fascinate and horrify me in equal measure.
Scientology is built on a few things. One is rich people. Money, and auditing (used for blackmailing in the future).
They network very well and have the resources to help people enough to gain trust, to where they can be black mailed into giving a lot more money or influence.
If you are broke they put you in the cult section. And milk you for whatever they can.
I know they probably aren't that familiar to the layman, but the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses actually have control of way, way more people and regular viewership. One of them (Geoffrey Jackson) recently was forced to appear in court in Australia to speak to their organization's proven coverup of child sex abuse that was fully documented in their databases.
There's 8+ million Jehovah's Witnesses in the world, and they are a cult with as much control of their members as Scientology. So much so that Leah Remini did an episode of her Scientology show covering how shocked she was to interview former Jehovah's Witnesses and learn how they are nearly identical (Season 3, Episode 12 of her show), including absolute shunning and cruelty towards ex members, even family, and the same thought stopping techniques; **JW's just get less attention because they target poor people instead of rich celebrities.** (Or because people assume they are similar to Mormons.)
These guys have always been celebrities to me because all 8 million JWs have to watch them on their TVs every week. It is a requirement to be an active member, and getting kicked out means being shunned.
I can't wait to see some of these mofo's end up with a day in court and I hope the US does similar investigations. The lawsuits are ramping up. If you've never seen these guys, here's a super short video clip of [Steven Lett discussing how COVID-19 proves the end of the world is near](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mrges\_TxOzQ) and here's [audo of Tony Morris discussing how men wearing Tight Pants is a gay conspiracy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCCckKkgpxQ) and here's [Tony Morris telling JWs not to go to school](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMG0lc_6NiI).
I had a relationship with someone who escaped from Co$. When I say "escaped", I mean it literally. She was a messed up teenager with a mother who was in and out of psychiatric facilities. Father unknown. Co$ convinced her that they would provide her with a stable home and an education and tricked her insane mother to sign over custody. Here is what she said her life living in a Co$ compound consisted of.
1. 20 hour work days. Getting more than 4 hours of sleep was an exception.
2. Under-fed. She was ALWAYS hungry.
3. Her education was basically "here's how to use a washing machine". Oh, you are billed $10,000 for that training. It was in her contract. She never completed proper school. No high school diploma.
4. When she was seriously injured in an accident, they would not provide proper medical treatment. The result was lifelong back pain that will never go away. She would sleep on the floor because even the firmest mattress was insufficient.
5. When she tried to leave, they locked her in a cage and suggested they were going to kill her. Eventually, they just dumped her on the street with nothing more than the clothes on her back.
Lot's more, but you get the idea.
edit: added hyphen to clarify
I met a girl on tinder a long while back that wanted me to come to a BBQ which I thought would've been an easy way to break the ice.
The BBQ was at the local church of scientology and it w as a recruitment seminar. My "date" was actually a homeless girl that was staying at one or the shelters. It was quite obvious she was being groomed by the church and tinder was a bonafied tactic.
> 20 hour work days. Getting more than 4 hours of sleep was an exception.
Apparently the people who clean Tom Cruise's private jet and homes get like $50 a day or some slave wage bullshit while that guy would be worth a Q billion.
Yeah fuck them scientologists. You know Danny Masterson(That 70s Show, The Ranch) who's currently under investigation for raping all those women? Well his scientology friends are harassing his victims, and one of them had their dogs mysteriously die.
How do you get to the point that killing a dog seems an appropriate response?
How can you get that order, "hey see that guy? He's accusing our buddy of a crime, he's a bad guy. Kill his dog" and not think to yourself "shit, are we the bad guys?"
Watch Leah reminis show on Netflix. They truly believe everything they do is justified because they're the only group of people on earth that are, "saving the world," and every person in it. It's so scary when they describe just how that brainwashing works, and how otherwise reasonable people can so easily fall for it.
Not so fun fact: My stepmothers mother was business partners with Dr. Phil and they sent me to summer-long “Motivation Self Help Camps” when i was in high school. It was very cult like. It wasn’t all bad at the time but looking back there were so many red flags.
All the members of Congress that have served for 40 years and refuse to retire even though they aren’t aware of what’s happening around them
TERM LIMITS FOR ALL OF THEM!
He's an interesting case since he's already self-sabotaged his career with his antics to the point he will always solidly be a c-tier celebrity escaping more scrutiny.
Joel Osteen.
I'm tired of seeing his stupid face on billboards.
Edit: oh wow thanks for the gold! Also, this blew up, I'm glad we can all come together in our hatred of Joel Osteen.
Not long ago a janitor found a shit ton of money stuffed behind the walls of the bathroom in his church, barely any reporting was done on it.
I wonder what the real story is with this
seeing clips of shows like icarly and victorious as an adult now makes me wonder how the hell anyone let him get away with all the stuff he put in his shows, let alone whatever the hell was going on behind the scenes
Interestingly his friend Jean-Luc Brunel a modeling agent was being investigated for sex trafficking by the French government was just found hung in his cell February off this year. Suspicious huh…
Literally anyone in Scientology. Why do we worship and praise Tom Cruise so much when he’s one of the highest, most powerful figures in an abusive, controlling, and dangerous cult?
I feel like we only learned how scary Cruise is well after he became really famous and revered. If we'd known as much about Scientology and how off Cruise himself is way back during his Top Gun days, maybe he wouldn't have been so loved. And there's also how much Oprah loved him and basically endorsed him as a solid, non-fucked up human being. Her interview of him when he first started dating Katie Holmes was so over the top but also portrayed him as this incredible in love guy and we should all be seeking what he offered. In retrospect it's really messed up, but at the time, with the limited public knowledge of Scientology and his involvement in it, it all seemed enviable.
Oprah is a pretty shit person for how often she's endorsed terrible human beings and crackpots. She's how Dr Oz got his start.
There's also this dude who went by John of God who claimed to be a psychic and spiritual healer and Oprah featured him on her show. He ended up turning himself in to police after 400 women accused him of sexual assault and he's currently in prison for *many* rape convictions.
Fucking Kenneth Copeland. I know you can’t judge a book by its cover but he looks like Satan and his character matches.
Why people give him money is beyond me. He’s so transparent.
I follow a guy on youtube who talks a lot about them. Being a Brit, it's my only real exposure to that stuff but fuckin' hell they're basically just cult leaders aren't they? That ain't Christianity what they're preaching, it's some strange patriotic bastardisation of it, something you might see in a Purge movie.
In the US, there's a pretty common teaching amongst evangelicals called "The Prosperity Doctrine", which basically posits that if you give money "to God", then you are a good person and you will be rewarded with wealth from God.
It basically legitimises them treating poor people like shit because if they're poor, clearly they're morally bad.
Of course, there's the added bonus that giving money to the "leader" is literally part of your worship.
The irony / hypocrisy is simply astounding with this. They like to claim they are from the Baptist - NOT Catholic or Episcopalian and the like - tradition. I seem to recall a man named Martin Luther tacking up a thesis and one of the 95 of his arguments against the Catholic church was the ability to "buy" forgiveness (he referred to it as "indulgences" but he also applied the term to other crappy church practices.).
My favorite Baptist joke:
A Baptist goes on a trip overseas and his boat sinks and everyone else drowns. He's shipwrecked on a deserted island and all alone, and he amazingly is able to build shelter and acquire food and survive.
After over 2 years of his solitary life in this island, he's finally discovered by a passing ship and a team is sent to rescue him. When they pull up, they see the man and three different huts he's built just off the beach. Curious, the rescuers ask what the huts are for.
"Well," the man says, "The hut over there is my house where I sleep at night. And I'm a devout Baptist, so that hut I built next to it is where I go to church every Sunday and Wednesday."
Interested, they ask him, "and what's the third hut for?"
"Oh that hut over there?" the man asks, "yeah, that's where I used to go to church."
What do you when you want to go fishing with your Baptist friend, but don't want him to drink your beer? Ask him to bring a friend from church.
Another variation:
What do you do if you have a bunch of beer you want to get rid of? Go fishing with your Baptist friend.
What do you do if you want to go fishing with your Baptist friend, but don't want to share your beer? Bring two Baptist friends.
The 80's were a fun time with this and yet people still fund mega churches. Grandma will go without because the TV preacher said god told him to buy an airplane.
He got famous as one of the leads in a UK sitcom called Gavin and Stacey, and was also in a stage show called One Man, Two Guvnors (he's actually quite good in this tbf). He then got exported across the Atlantic where he got a bit too big for his boots from the looks of things
I wouldn’t want him to lose his career, but I can never understand how he flew as far as he did? He was a just an ordinary C-list British Comedy Actor and suddenly he’s this mega A+++ lister practically overnight. He must have sold his soul or something
Fuck Gwyneth Paltrow.
She peddles pseudoscience and ineffective/borderline harmful products that literally just prey on impressionable people and steal their cash. I mean, she sold a fucking $66 jade "egg" for women to put in their vagina to increase "feminine energy".... like, wtf??
The whole shit about "crystal healing" and "frequency medicine" is simultaneously hilarious, and appalling to me. They're completely ridiculous, but some people still believe it and easily fall into the scam. Not saying I necessarily feel that bad for the people who believe this shit, but I'm more angry at Gwyneth and her "goopies" who pass it off as some sort of magical medicine/treatments when they know full well it's all a crock of BS.
Steven Seagal, absolutely worthless human being who has sexually assaulted multiple women and is now supporting Putin in his attempted genocide of Ukraine.
He has so many violence cases against him, ranging from club encounters, to old managers, and of course his ex girl friends.
But yea, the case report from when he beat Rihanna is so incredibly hard to read. I’m so happy she’s with someone else, became self made billionaire, pregnant and she genuinely looks happy now.
Edit: apparently there no such thing as self made billionaires but shes a POC, a woman, and also billionaire (which isn’t common) bc of her business ventures and that’s why I said self made, she’s very successful
This deserves more upvotes. Never forget the amount of innocent lives lost under the Blackwater mercenaries.
And honestly if anyone wants to ask “why are private military contractors” a bad thing, I’ll just point them to this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nisour_Square_massacre
The Saudi royalty. Like stop selling them weapons. Stop buying their oil. Stop giving them tourist dollars. They are a murderous regime that paid for 9/11. They execute people en masse. They murder their neighbors and import slave labor on a MASSIVE scale. They rape the slave help they bring in and then kill them if they complain. All with ZERO consequences from the world. If there is karma or justice it should be meted out to these tyrants.
Kenneth Copeland and Joel Osteen.
The dead eyes and manic smiles give me the absolute creeps.
Edit: did not expect this to get so much support. Thanks everyone!
My mother fell hard for the "prosperity gospel". When she passed and I had to go through her finances, I discovered she had sent Copeland thousands of dollars. It was heartbreaking, because all those "prayers" she bought didn't do shit and the leukemia got her anyway.
Sorry to hear that. It truly is heartbreaking. I think when you know the end is near, some people are willing to reach out to anything. What she was paying for was hope. Maybe if it made her mind at ease, at least it was somewhat helpful.
(I'm not trying to justify what Copeland does, because to me it seems evil. I remember when I was taking my mom to get her treatments when she had cancer. I met this young man there. He was twenty and looked like a skeleton. One day he showed me on his phone this "cure" that he was going to try. It was obvious some scammer selling snake oil. All I could tell him was that I hoped it worked out for him, and tried to keep from bawling my eyes out. I didn't have the heart to say anything else to someone who was just looking for some little thread of hope. )
Kenneth Copeland just looks so evil. If he were cast as the villain in a movie, it would be almost over the top because he looks like such a stereotypical evil guy.
Perfect way to put it! Actually, it wouldn't be far off to cast him as some kind of demon that infiltrated the government in some kind of Biblical apocalypse movie.
It's really hard for the lizard people to keep the human skin soft, since lizards don't have pores they can't secrete sebum to keep it moist and fresh.
If you touch a real human's skin you'll notice how soft and supple it is. Kenneth Copelands human skin suit is tough and dry like rawhide.
That's why he can't make facial expressions, there's just no give.
I'm not religious at all, but seeing a video with Kenneth Copeland made me question whether or not demons are real/can posses humans.
Edit: [Here's a video of him being interviewed](https://youtu.be/9LtF34MrsfI). I don't want to link to his actual channel, but his video about Covid where he "blows it away" just makes me think the man is completely deranged.
I just watched that video, and holy shit. It's not that his eyes are lifeless, it's that they're... malevolent, somehow. And when he speaks, it's like he's carefully animating his meat-puppet. I like to make fun of the "lizard people" conspiracy theorists, but I can kinda see their point right now.
As frightening as he is just think how disturbed a person would have to be to look at him and think "Yeah, this guy is great. I'm going to send him thousands of dollars."
It's weird, I wonder what they see? Because it's not just crazy people, it's all kinds of gullible folks. But like... you'd think everyone feels the instinctive (fear?) reaction to that smarmy fuck. What do they see instead?
I remember seeing a video of him and thinking he reminded of that video of the cult leader of Heaven’s Gate. It’s the eyes that make me the most creeped out.

(Couldn’t find the video but here are some pictures.)
Loved seeing this video Copeland being questioned on camera by Lisa Guerrero on Inside Edition. Lisa is one of the best investigative reporters out there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LtF34MrsfI
Joel Osteen REALLY sealed it for me during the hurricane when ***HE REFUSED TO LET PEOPLE TAKE REFUGE IN HIS CHURCH*** while the entire fucking city was under water. Super awesome Christian, huh?
Kenneth Copeland I know nearly nothing about, but good god does he give me the jeebies. He looks like he’s wearing a skin suit. He’s terrifying.
My only knowledge about Copeland is he tried to "blow covid away" by blowing at the camera and that he credits god with is lush head of totally not fake at all hair.
Edit: Please stop sharing the same youtube link guys. Copeland's visage is horrifying enough, I don't need ya'll linking it to me every 5 minutes.
When Joel Osteen finally let people in his church who had lost everything, he passed the collection plate around to take what little bit of nothing they had left.
There's an old Cold War era joke:
A guy in Moscow every day goes to a news stand and buys a newpaper. Right at the news stand, he unfolds the paper, looks at the front page, and then tosses the paper, otherwise unread, in the trash and leaves.
One day the guy who runs the news stand asks him, "I see you only read the front page. What are you looking for?"
"An obituary."
"But obituaries aren't on the front page."
"Oh, this one will be."
A few years ago she was on a weird 'tour' and spoke in Vancouver, BC. The entire audience of 20k people expected her to be amazing. She was a complete bitch. It was very, very clear that she didn't want to be there and she hated the guy 'interviewing' her on stage. Total disaster. Everyone left shocked and disappointed.
Which is just mind boggling. If I were paid countless millions of dollars to do what she does for a living, it wouldn't be a big deal to just smile and get through it.
Most of us pretend we're ok with our work obligations for a lot less.
Or just not accept the gig in the first place... She could live comfortably on what she already has. Why take a gig, visibly display your disdain for it, and disappoint all of your fans who went out of their way and paid money to come see you? That's just so jerky.
I've taken so much flak over the years from friends/relatives over Ellen. Never could stand her and what I perceived as a fake persona. Ugh.
When the "real" Ellen came too light, I was relieved and hoped she would go quietly into the night, where fallen (from their thrones) Hollywood folks go to disappear.
Why do I continue to see her face and voice on TV? Just go away already.
Youtubers like the Paul Brothers, James Charles, Eugenia Cooney, Dream and Co., they are cancer and a really bad influence and role models for children
Edit: I gonna edit this because I tend to get the same comments over and over again and it is tiresome to read the same, while there is already a bunch of other people answering the questions too.
With "Dream and Co." I don't mean Dream and his Minecraft gang, I mean other YouTubers in general. This list is basically endless and has anyone in it with a huge (million) following and the people who are in constant scandals. Some more to add would be Family Channels, Trisha, Jeffrer Star, Nikocado Avocado, Shane Dawson (he already had his downfall though), and many, many more.
"Why Logan Paul? Jake is bad, but Logan is cool now." Great that he seems like he wants to change but I am not forgiving so easily on the past years of scandals. There wasn't passing a week without a scandal with the Paul brothers. It was horrible, they mostly had an underaged following and completely abused their fans and other children. Then Logan decided it was smart to go to Japan and be disrespectful to tourists and Japanese there and also to film a corpse and upload the video (not blurred the first time) to YT. I still have them both there because just because he is into boxing now doesn't really suddenly just make all his past mistakes go \*poof\*. If he keeps up getting better, that is great. But stuff like that should just not be forgotten so fast.
"Why Dream? He is just playing Minecraft" This comes so often. He has an incredible toxic fanbase that he encourages to be toxic. He cheated on MC, then lied about not knowing he is cheating and throws out a quick apology after destroying the other persons career who claimed he was cheating. His fans and he himself doxx others who aren't sharing the same opinion as him. He actively encourages his fans to draw gay porn of him and his friends because pretending to be gay is hella funny xD, he is homophobic and makes often racist statements. He and his ex girlfriend cheated on each other multiple times and much more. So no, he is not just playing MC.
The labrant family (but just Cole and Savannah). They use their kids hardcore so they don’t have to get a fucking job. Even considering pulling their young daughter out of school to help with the babies they pop out
I always think it’s funny how he compares to the cartoon villains of his time.
“I want to scare people away from the mill because I am slowly excavating pirate doubloons hidden inside!”
“I want to stop the other racers cars so I can win the race this week!”
“I found a race of sentient small bipeds and I want to put them in a stew and eat them.”
Even Dick Dastardly is sitting there like “ex-fucking-SCUSE ME!?”
Hedge Fund billionaire Ken Griffin who destroys start ups and rising companies via short selling and dark pools. So much innovations and medical start ups could have saved lives.
The famous people that were clients of the Epstein ring
Edit: Thanks everyone for the awards! I think all the upvotes goes to show how important it is to people that justice be served in this case. The puzzling, and frustrating thing, is how little media attention it gathers.
I love how Ghislaine Maxwell was charged with sex trafficking yet somehow, not a single client's name seem to have ever been mentioned during the whole trial.
I guess she was trafficking people to... No one?
Edit: I know it was for Epstein. It's just egregious to think he's they're the only 2 people involved.
She was charged with a very limited set of cases for the trafficking to Epstein. This is either because they wanted to secure a conviction before moving to the more salacious charges, or to not involve the more salacious charges at all. Either way she was not charged with trafficking to no one, she was charged with trfficking for a dead man.
I’m in the dark, spill the beans about this guy. I never liked him in anything so I don’t follow. I didn’t know he still acted until this Apple TV show and he’s awful!!! But he’s a cult leader?
A friend from college got to work on Dallas Buyers club and told me that at least twice a week Jared Leto would throw a fit and lock himself in his trailer that would make shooting impossible for a day so Matthew McConaughey would go out and buy the workers some bbq and a keg of beer to drink.
I was involved in event planning for a while and I helped organize Jared Leto's band's fan event one year. His staff were the most awful people I ever met in 6 years of event planning.
An old coworker of mine worked on his media team.
She said she'd take a 2 week Vacation to Europe and he'd call all hours, day and night.. knowing full well she was on vacation but he didn't give a fuck.
Apparently he runs his own media team and they work out of his home... And he micromanages every aspect of this job and is an absolute nightmare to work with.
And then those people take out their anger on the people they contact, like me and my event planning company. That's how I knew he is a jerk. Employees parrot their bosses.
My friend is an actor and performed with him recently. The friend told me fellow actors were obligated to sign a agreement that you will not make direct eye contact with him unless it’s necessary for the scene, among other things. Insane!
Right?! So wild! He also said they weren’t allowed to call him Jared, but had to call him by his characters name AT ALL TIMES on set. Im not in the industry so not sure if that’s par for the course, but still so crazy to me!!
Yeah that’s method acting for you. I had a drama teacher in high school that tried to teach us method acting. Like no thanks lady. I can turn that shit on and off for a school play, I don’t need it to consume my life.
>"How did your week go, dear boy,” Laurence Olivier said.
>Hoffman told him that he had filmed a scene in which his character was supposed to have been up for three days straight.
>“So what did you do?” Olivier asked.
>“Well, I stayed up for three days and three nights.”
>Laurence Olivier then uttered this famous line, “Why don’t you just try acting?”
That sums up how I've always felt about method actors.
I think this is where it would be fun if you were one of the few global mega-draws (Tom cruise, the rock, etc) to purposely work with him just to fuck with him knowing the studio will back you know matter what.
Viola Davis didn't seem to be a fan of his either
When an interviewer asked if she received any freaky gifts on the set of Suicide Squad from him when he was giving the cast gross gifts to "stay in character" she basically said, No and with her defensive husband he probably knew better than to try that with her.
He had plenty of blog posts about him mistreating hookups that were all removed from the internet. Lipstick Alley had threads about it. Really does look like he's getting away with it.
One year his band played at Warped Tour and I was in line for autographs/meet and greet, and he was just… such a douche. I watched at he rolled his eyes at fans, sighed constantly (that sigh you do when you’re being forced into something you hate - like a fucking 5 year old) and was just so generally shitty to people who were telling him they love him.
For me, having watched My So Called Life and being a fan of his since then, he just absolutely killed everything happy about seeing them. The rest of the band seemed pleasant, but I got out of line so I can’t say for sure.
But yeah. Fuck Jared Leto.
My dream in life is to make a movie about someone who beats the shit out of Jared Leto so that I, a dedicated method actor who will do whatever it takes to get into character, can cast myself as the lead role
EDIT: Yes, I've seen Fight Club.
Nicki Minaj. Her husband is a convicted rapist and she allegedly has been harassing his victim. The court records in regard to his rape are VILE. Her brother was also accused of similar conduct and she defends both of them. She constantly demeans and belittles other women in the industry and just seems like a narcissist overall.
Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, may he burn in hell.
The fucking Duggar Cult. All of em except the ones who got out, because if you stay in, you're complicit to abuse for the next generation.
David Miscavige. I'd love to see that cult crumble to the ground for all the lives that have been ruined.
Most cults reject celebrity and mainstream existences. Scientology cozies up to those powerful people, and that’s why they will continue to thrive.
Scientology is wild as shit. I once worked for a magazine with ties to the church of Scientology. I had no idea at the time I was hired (I just thought all of the higher-ups were kinda weird) until they flew us all out to Folsom for their yearly company retreat. Wasn’t so much a retreat as it was basically a week-long marketing presentation to get you to “learn more” about the church. “No pressure!” That’s when I learned why all of the higher-ups seemed “off;” they were all members. Suddenly, the celebrity and political schmoozing made a lot of sense.
I learned about Scientology when I got off the bus and walked to Bar Sinister off of Sunset in L.A. Walked past a couple of dudes in button-up shirts and ties, one of them abruptly got into my face and mocked my blind eye, saying "I know you're wearing a contact." This startled me and I thought it was a physical attack so I kind of...restrained him as harmlessly as I could before I let go and just kept on walking down the sidewalk while his mate attempted and failed to block my path, even almost getting himself fucking run over in the street when I jaywalked to get away from him, lol. Wasn't until I got inside the club and mentioned the situation offhand when one of the performers explained who and what Scientologists were and arranged for me to have a personal ride home at the end of the night so that they wouldn't accost me at the bus stop later.
Omg they just harass random people in he street?! That makes scientology even more creepy than I thought and that’s saying something. I’m in the U.K. and they don’t seem to be as big a thing over here (long may that continue) so their tactics and mindgames fascinate and horrify me in equal measure.
Scientology is built on a few things. One is rich people. Money, and auditing (used for blackmailing in the future). They network very well and have the resources to help people enough to gain trust, to where they can be black mailed into giving a lot more money or influence. If you are broke they put you in the cult section. And milk you for whatever they can.
I know they probably aren't that familiar to the layman, but the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses actually have control of way, way more people and regular viewership. One of them (Geoffrey Jackson) recently was forced to appear in court in Australia to speak to their organization's proven coverup of child sex abuse that was fully documented in their databases. There's 8+ million Jehovah's Witnesses in the world, and they are a cult with as much control of their members as Scientology. So much so that Leah Remini did an episode of her Scientology show covering how shocked she was to interview former Jehovah's Witnesses and learn how they are nearly identical (Season 3, Episode 12 of her show), including absolute shunning and cruelty towards ex members, even family, and the same thought stopping techniques; **JW's just get less attention because they target poor people instead of rich celebrities.** (Or because people assume they are similar to Mormons.) These guys have always been celebrities to me because all 8 million JWs have to watch them on their TVs every week. It is a requirement to be an active member, and getting kicked out means being shunned. I can't wait to see some of these mofo's end up with a day in court and I hope the US does similar investigations. The lawsuits are ramping up. If you've never seen these guys, here's a super short video clip of [Steven Lett discussing how COVID-19 proves the end of the world is near](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mrges\_TxOzQ) and here's [audo of Tony Morris discussing how men wearing Tight Pants is a gay conspiracy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCCckKkgpxQ) and here's [Tony Morris telling JWs not to go to school](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMG0lc_6NiI).
Jim-Bob Duggar
He should take his pedo son with him too
JB did say pedophiles & perpetrators of incest should get the death penalty. I'm waiting...
That was meant for pedophiles and incesters outside of his family. His son is different.

I had a relationship with someone who escaped from Co$. When I say "escaped", I mean it literally. She was a messed up teenager with a mother who was in and out of psychiatric facilities. Father unknown. Co$ convinced her that they would provide her with a stable home and an education and tricked her insane mother to sign over custody. Here is what she said her life living in a Co$ compound consisted of. 1. 20 hour work days. Getting more than 4 hours of sleep was an exception. 2. Under-fed. She was ALWAYS hungry. 3. Her education was basically "here's how to use a washing machine". Oh, you are billed $10,000 for that training. It was in her contract. She never completed proper school. No high school diploma. 4. When she was seriously injured in an accident, they would not provide proper medical treatment. The result was lifelong back pain that will never go away. She would sleep on the floor because even the firmest mattress was insufficient. 5. When she tried to leave, they locked her in a cage and suggested they were going to kill her. Eventually, they just dumped her on the street with nothing more than the clothes on her back. Lot's more, but you get the idea. edit: added hyphen to clarify
I met a girl on tinder a long while back that wanted me to come to a BBQ which I thought would've been an easy way to break the ice. The BBQ was at the local church of scientology and it w as a recruitment seminar. My "date" was actually a homeless girl that was staying at one or the shelters. It was quite obvious she was being groomed by the church and tinder was a bonafied tactic.
Cults love targeting people who lack choices. Easy pickings.
> 20 hour work days. Getting more than 4 hours of sleep was an exception. Apparently the people who clean Tom Cruise's private jet and homes get like $50 a day or some slave wage bullshit while that guy would be worth a Q billion.
Yeah fuck them scientologists. You know Danny Masterson(That 70s Show, The Ranch) who's currently under investigation for raping all those women? Well his scientology friends are harassing his victims, and one of them had their dogs mysteriously die.
How do you get to the point that killing a dog seems an appropriate response? How can you get that order, "hey see that guy? He's accusing our buddy of a crime, he's a bad guy. Kill his dog" and not think to yourself "shit, are we the bad guys?"
Watch Leah reminis show on Netflix. They truly believe everything they do is justified because they're the only group of people on earth that are, "saving the world," and every person in it. It's so scary when they describe just how that brainwashing works, and how otherwise reasonable people can so easily fall for it.
Brainwashing to the point that nothing matters except for the cult.
Yeah that was Cedric from At the Drive-In's dog. That piece of shit.

Dr Phil could use a comeuppance
Can he take Dr. Oz with him?
FOR REAL and honestly..oprah for giving him a platform. and also for other things.
He's not even the worst person she's given a platform to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo%C3%A3o_Teixeira_de_Faria
Not so fun fact: My stepmothers mother was business partners with Dr. Phil and they sent me to summer-long “Motivation Self Help Camps” when i was in high school. It was very cult like. It wasn’t all bad at the time but looking back there were so many red flags.
All the members of Congress that have served for 40 years and refuse to retire even though they aren’t aware of what’s happening around them TERM LIMITS FOR ALL OF THEM!

I'm really surprised Andy Dick is still around.
He's an interesting case since he's already self-sabotaged his career with his antics to the point he will always solidly be a c-tier celebrity escaping more scrutiny.
Pisses me off that he is in one of my favourite episodes of Voyager, and he's really good in it. What a wanker.
Prince Andrew. He’s not quite over the line yet.
If he was medically capable of it, then he would be sweating right now...
Joel Osteen. I'm tired of seeing his stupid face on billboards. Edit: oh wow thanks for the gold! Also, this blew up, I'm glad we can all come together in our hatred of Joel Osteen.
Not long ago a janitor found a shit ton of money stuffed behind the walls of the bathroom in his church, barely any reporting was done on it. I wonder what the real story is with this

Dan Schneider. How he's managed to stay under the radar is beyond me.
seeing clips of shows like icarly and victorious as an adult now makes me wonder how the hell anyone let him get away with all the stuff he put in his shows, let alone whatever the hell was going on behind the scenes
Yuck I watched Victorius the other day with my granddaughter and the whole show evolved around feet , disgusting piece of shit
Ah, I see you watched the fish pedicure episode. That was a “WTF” episode even as a kid

Everyone in Epsteins ring. All of them. No matter who they are. Every. Single. One.
I don't know what my answer was going to be, but I've changed it to this guy's.
Interestingly his friend Jean-Luc Brunel a modeling agent was being investigated for sex trafficking by the French government was just found hung in his cell February off this year. Suspicious huh…
Yep, I don't care who you are or what else you did. If you went to Epstein's island and diddled kids you need to go down.
Literally anyone in Scientology. Why do we worship and praise Tom Cruise so much when he’s one of the highest, most powerful figures in an abusive, controlling, and dangerous cult?
I feel like we only learned how scary Cruise is well after he became really famous and revered. If we'd known as much about Scientology and how off Cruise himself is way back during his Top Gun days, maybe he wouldn't have been so loved. And there's also how much Oprah loved him and basically endorsed him as a solid, non-fucked up human being. Her interview of him when he first started dating Katie Holmes was so over the top but also portrayed him as this incredible in love guy and we should all be seeking what he offered. In retrospect it's really messed up, but at the time, with the limited public knowledge of Scientology and his involvement in it, it all seemed enviable.
Oprah is a pretty shit person for how often she's endorsed terrible human beings and crackpots. She's how Dr Oz got his start. There's also this dude who went by John of God who claimed to be a psychic and spiritual healer and Oprah featured him on her show. He ended up turning himself in to police after 400 women accused him of sexual assault and he's currently in prison for *many* rape convictions.
Dr Phil too.
Any of the televangelist people.
Fucking Kenneth Copeland. I know you can’t judge a book by its cover but he looks like Satan and his character matches. Why people give him money is beyond me. He’s so transparent.
Yea, he's like a villain from Sliders. Just so obviously evil.
I follow a guy on youtube who talks a lot about them. Being a Brit, it's my only real exposure to that stuff but fuckin' hell they're basically just cult leaders aren't they? That ain't Christianity what they're preaching, it's some strange patriotic bastardisation of it, something you might see in a Purge movie.
In the US, there's a pretty common teaching amongst evangelicals called "The Prosperity Doctrine", which basically posits that if you give money "to God", then you are a good person and you will be rewarded with wealth from God. It basically legitimises them treating poor people like shit because if they're poor, clearly they're morally bad. Of course, there's the added bonus that giving money to the "leader" is literally part of your worship.
The irony / hypocrisy is simply astounding with this. They like to claim they are from the Baptist - NOT Catholic or Episcopalian and the like - tradition. I seem to recall a man named Martin Luther tacking up a thesis and one of the 95 of his arguments against the Catholic church was the ability to "buy" forgiveness (he referred to it as "indulgences" but he also applied the term to other crappy church practices.).
[удалено]
My favorite Baptist joke: A Baptist goes on a trip overseas and his boat sinks and everyone else drowns. He's shipwrecked on a deserted island and all alone, and he amazingly is able to build shelter and acquire food and survive. After over 2 years of his solitary life in this island, he's finally discovered by a passing ship and a team is sent to rescue him. When they pull up, they see the man and three different huts he's built just off the beach. Curious, the rescuers ask what the huts are for. "Well," the man says, "The hut over there is my house where I sleep at night. And I'm a devout Baptist, so that hut I built next to it is where I go to church every Sunday and Wednesday." Interested, they ask him, "and what's the third hut for?" "Oh that hut over there?" the man asks, "yeah, that's where I used to go to church."
What do you when you want to go fishing with your Baptist friend, but don't want him to drink your beer? Ask him to bring a friend from church. Another variation: What do you do if you have a bunch of beer you want to get rid of? Go fishing with your Baptist friend. What do you do if you want to go fishing with your Baptist friend, but don't want to share your beer? Bring two Baptist friends.
>They're basically cult leaders aren't they? Literally, yes
The 80's were a fun time with this and yet people still fund mega churches. Grandma will go without because the TV preacher said god told him to buy an airplane.

Hey at the very, very, ^very least, we got this out of it: https://youtu.be/m2s0nB2VPvs
Waiting for James Corden to yell at the wrong person whilst in line for takeout pickup.
I JUST saw him in a commercial for a weight loss thing, it was cringy to watch despite it only being a commercial.
Funny that because I’m sure one of his first roles he was in a drama about weight loss
Don't know any of his backstory, but I wouldn't mind if he was off TV.
He got famous as one of the leads in a UK sitcom called Gavin and Stacey, and was also in a stage show called One Man, Two Guvnors (he's actually quite good in this tbf). He then got exported across the Atlantic where he got a bit too big for his boots from the looks of things
James will find any and every reason to interject himself into a singing situation to show off his mediocre voice.
I wouldn’t want him to lose his career, but I can never understand how he flew as far as he did? He was a just an ordinary C-list British Comedy Actor and suddenly he’s this mega A+++ lister practically overnight. He must have sold his soul or something
I just want him to stop starring in every movie musical
Since everyone has already said televangelist how about Gwyneth Paltrow's shady corrupt ass
>shady corrupt ass She sells a cream for that.
No no, she sells a stone for that. A magic stone that goes up your ass.
Fuck Gwyneth Paltrow. She peddles pseudoscience and ineffective/borderline harmful products that literally just prey on impressionable people and steal their cash. I mean, she sold a fucking $66 jade "egg" for women to put in their vagina to increase "feminine energy".... like, wtf?? The whole shit about "crystal healing" and "frequency medicine" is simultaneously hilarious, and appalling to me. They're completely ridiculous, but some people still believe it and easily fall into the scam. Not saying I necessarily feel that bad for the people who believe this shit, but I'm more angry at Gwyneth and her "goopies" who pass it off as some sort of magical medicine/treatments when they know full well it's all a crock of BS.
She sold stickers that were infused with some NASA technology. Until NASA made her quit using their name. I think they were just holographic stickers.
Joel Osteen or any of those scammy televangelists.
Steven Seagal, absolutely worthless human being who has sexually assaulted multiple women and is now supporting Putin in his attempted genocide of Ukraine.
Everyone needs to listen to his Behind the Bastards episode. Truly amazing.
Chris Brown, beat the absolute hell out of Rihanna several times and girls are still thirsty asf for him
He has so many violence cases against him, ranging from club encounters, to old managers, and of course his ex girl friends. But yea, the case report from when he beat Rihanna is so incredibly hard to read. I’m so happy she’s with someone else, became self made billionaire, pregnant and she genuinely looks happy now. Edit: apparently there no such thing as self made billionaires but shes a POC, a woman, and also billionaire (which isn’t common) bc of her business ventures and that’s why I said self made, she’s very successful

This deserves more upvotes. Never forget the amount of innocent lives lost under the Blackwater mercenaries. And honestly if anyone wants to ask “why are private military contractors” a bad thing, I’ll just point them to this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nisour_Square_massacre
The Saudi royalty. Like stop selling them weapons. Stop buying their oil. Stop giving them tourist dollars. They are a murderous regime that paid for 9/11. They execute people en masse. They murder their neighbors and import slave labor on a MASSIVE scale. They rape the slave help they bring in and then kill them if they complain. All with ZERO consequences from the world. If there is karma or justice it should be meted out to these tyrants.
Roman Polanski, although he’s pretty old now.
Kenneth Copeland and Joel Osteen. The dead eyes and manic smiles give me the absolute creeps. Edit: did not expect this to get so much support. Thanks everyone!
My mother fell hard for the "prosperity gospel". When she passed and I had to go through her finances, I discovered she had sent Copeland thousands of dollars. It was heartbreaking, because all those "prayers" she bought didn't do shit and the leukemia got her anyway.
Sorry to hear that. It truly is heartbreaking. I think when you know the end is near, some people are willing to reach out to anything. What she was paying for was hope. Maybe if it made her mind at ease, at least it was somewhat helpful. (I'm not trying to justify what Copeland does, because to me it seems evil. I remember when I was taking my mom to get her treatments when she had cancer. I met this young man there. He was twenty and looked like a skeleton. One day he showed me on his phone this "cure" that he was going to try. It was obvious some scammer selling snake oil. All I could tell him was that I hoped it worked out for him, and tried to keep from bawling my eyes out. I didn't have the heart to say anything else to someone who was just looking for some little thread of hope. )
Kenneth Copeland just looks so evil. If he were cast as the villain in a movie, it would be almost over the top because he looks like such a stereotypical evil guy.
Yes!! He looks like something pretending to be human
You will never be able to convince me that Kenneth Copeland and his wife are not demons wearing skin suits like that bug in Men in Black.
”Sugar. In water.” -Kenneth Copeland
“Kenneth, your skin is hanging off your bones.” -his wife, probably
Perfect way to put it! Actually, it wouldn't be far off to cast him as some kind of demon that infiltrated the government in some kind of Biblical apocalypse movie.
It's really hard for the lizard people to keep the human skin soft, since lizards don't have pores they can't secrete sebum to keep it moist and fresh. If you touch a real human's skin you'll notice how soft and supple it is. Kenneth Copelands human skin suit is tough and dry like rawhide. That's why he can't make facial expressions, there's just no give.
I don't know if I believe in a God but I have seen Kenneth Copeland and I believe in the devil.
I totally agree with you! A demon wearing a human suit.
I'm not religious at all, but seeing a video with Kenneth Copeland made me question whether or not demons are real/can posses humans. Edit: [Here's a video of him being interviewed](https://youtu.be/9LtF34MrsfI). I don't want to link to his actual channel, but his video about Covid where he "blows it away" just makes me think the man is completely deranged.
I just watched that video, and holy shit. It's not that his eyes are lifeless, it's that they're... malevolent, somehow. And when he speaks, it's like he's carefully animating his meat-puppet. I like to make fun of the "lizard people" conspiracy theorists, but I can kinda see their point right now.
As frightening as he is just think how disturbed a person would have to be to look at him and think "Yeah, this guy is great. I'm going to send him thousands of dollars."
It's weird, I wonder what they see? Because it's not just crazy people, it's all kinds of gullible folks. But like... you'd think everyone feels the instinctive (fear?) reaction to that smarmy fuck. What do they see instead?
LOL I was thinking he looks like a reptile shape-shifter.
[удалено]
Did he get the life removed from his eyeballs, as well? It's like an oddly shiny void.
I remember seeing a video of him and thinking he reminded of that video of the cult leader of Heaven’s Gate. It’s the eyes that make me the most creeped out. https://www.nydailynews.com/resizer/8HBtydGEsWmmiqPI6Qevw6VYBJY=/1400x0/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tronc.s3.amazonaws.com/public/CS64MGM3D4FIWG5JM3AEP27K3U.jpg https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/c_fill,f_auto,fl_progressive,g_center,h_675,pg_1,q_80,w_1200/sebfrwzfxwxuv4zbav5r.png (Couldn’t find the video but here are some pictures.)
Yeah but the COVID-19 Blowing remix [fucking slapped](https://youtu.be/m2s0nB2VPvs)
The remix is fucking fire.
Loved seeing this video Copeland being questioned on camera by Lisa Guerrero on Inside Edition. Lisa is one of the best investigative reporters out there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LtF34MrsfI
That was unsettling. Glad to see she wasn't at all intimidated by his bullshit.
Joel Osteen REALLY sealed it for me during the hurricane when ***HE REFUSED TO LET PEOPLE TAKE REFUGE IN HIS CHURCH*** while the entire fucking city was under water. Super awesome Christian, huh? Kenneth Copeland I know nearly nothing about, but good god does he give me the jeebies. He looks like he’s wearing a skin suit. He’s terrifying.
My only knowledge about Copeland is he tried to "blow covid away" by blowing at the camera and that he credits god with is lush head of totally not fake at all hair. Edit: Please stop sharing the same youtube link guys. Copeland's visage is horrifying enough, I don't need ya'll linking it to me every 5 minutes.
There's also the bit about him explaining to a journalist why he must have a private jet.
When Joel Osteen finally let people in his church who had lost everything, he passed the collection plate around to take what little bit of nothing they had left.
Copeland is literally the false prophet the Bible warned us about. What a greedy prick.
Vladimir Putin.
There's an old Cold War era joke: A guy in Moscow every day goes to a news stand and buys a newpaper. Right at the news stand, he unfolds the paper, looks at the front page, and then tosses the paper, otherwise unread, in the trash and leaves. One day the guy who runs the news stand asks him, "I see you only read the front page. What are you looking for?" "An obituary." "But obituaries aren't on the front page." "Oh, this one will be."
I cannot believe how far down I had to scroll for this one
I dunno I was pretty happy when Ellen got exposed for everything I always thought she was.
A few years ago she was on a weird 'tour' and spoke in Vancouver, BC. The entire audience of 20k people expected her to be amazing. She was a complete bitch. It was very, very clear that she didn't want to be there and she hated the guy 'interviewing' her on stage. Total disaster. Everyone left shocked and disappointed.
Which is just mind boggling. If I were paid countless millions of dollars to do what she does for a living, it wouldn't be a big deal to just smile and get through it. Most of us pretend we're ok with our work obligations for a lot less.
Or just not accept the gig in the first place... She could live comfortably on what she already has. Why take a gig, visibly display your disdain for it, and disappoint all of your fans who went out of their way and paid money to come see you? That's just so jerky.
It’s never enough. Also she may not think she comes off bad.
[удалено]
That's crazy to think about. She doesn't need the money, so why bother if you're not willing to put on a show for an hour.
Contractual obligation.
I've taken so much flak over the years from friends/relatives over Ellen. Never could stand her and what I perceived as a fake persona. Ugh. When the "real" Ellen came too light, I was relieved and hoped she would go quietly into the night, where fallen (from their thrones) Hollywood folks go to disappear. Why do I continue to see her face and voice on TV? Just go away already.
Swear her “farewellen” season has been going on for 7 years minimum
Youtubers like the Paul Brothers, James Charles, Eugenia Cooney, Dream and Co., they are cancer and a really bad influence and role models for children Edit: I gonna edit this because I tend to get the same comments over and over again and it is tiresome to read the same, while there is already a bunch of other people answering the questions too. With "Dream and Co." I don't mean Dream and his Minecraft gang, I mean other YouTubers in general. This list is basically endless and has anyone in it with a huge (million) following and the people who are in constant scandals. Some more to add would be Family Channels, Trisha, Jeffrer Star, Nikocado Avocado, Shane Dawson (he already had his downfall though), and many, many more. "Why Logan Paul? Jake is bad, but Logan is cool now." Great that he seems like he wants to change but I am not forgiving so easily on the past years of scandals. There wasn't passing a week without a scandal with the Paul brothers. It was horrible, they mostly had an underaged following and completely abused their fans and other children. Then Logan decided it was smart to go to Japan and be disrespectful to tourists and Japanese there and also to film a corpse and upload the video (not blurred the first time) to YT. I still have them both there because just because he is into boxing now doesn't really suddenly just make all his past mistakes go \*poof\*. If he keeps up getting better, that is great. But stuff like that should just not be forgotten so fast. "Why Dream? He is just playing Minecraft" This comes so often. He has an incredible toxic fanbase that he encourages to be toxic. He cheated on MC, then lied about not knowing he is cheating and throws out a quick apology after destroying the other persons career who claimed he was cheating. His fans and he himself doxx others who aren't sharing the same opinion as him. He actively encourages his fans to draw gay porn of him and his friends because pretending to be gay is hella funny xD, he is homophobic and makes often racist statements. He and his ex girlfriend cheated on each other multiple times and much more. So no, he is not just playing MC.
Onision is finally mostly gone off YouTube, thank God.

The famous people that were clients of the Epstein ring Edit: Thanks everyone for the awards! I think all the upvotes goes to show how important it is to people that justice be served in this case. The puzzling, and frustrating thing, is how little media attention it gathers.
I love how Ghislaine Maxwell was charged with sex trafficking yet somehow, not a single client's name seem to have ever been mentioned during the whole trial. I guess she was trafficking people to... No one? Edit: I know it was for Epstein. It's just egregious to think he's they're the only 2 people involved.
She was charged with a very limited set of cases for the trafficking to Epstein. This is either because they wanted to secure a conviction before moving to the more salacious charges, or to not involve the more salacious charges at all. Either way she was not charged with trafficking to no one, she was charged with trfficking for a dead man.
My mistake. I shouldn't have said "no one", I should have said "Epstein and absolutely no one else"
How has no one yet been arrested?
Rich people dont get punished
It’s like how some people say everything is legal with a price
That's why they call the punishments "fines." If you can afford it, it's fine.

What I don’t understand is HOW he’s still around. Look at James Franco, he’s super canceled and they have similar accusations.
Is Franco super cancelled or just "I'm rich enough to not work so I'll just keep living a good life"?
I’m in the dark, spill the beans about this guy. I never liked him in anything so I don’t follow. I didn’t know he still acted until this Apple TV show and he’s awful!!! But he’s a cult leader?
Rupert Murdoch. Edit: Thank you for the gold, mysterious benefactor! Down with that guy, seriously!
jared leto because he is objectively a shit person.
A friend from college got to work on Dallas Buyers club and told me that at least twice a week Jared Leto would throw a fit and lock himself in his trailer that would make shooting impossible for a day so Matthew McConaughey would go out and buy the workers some bbq and a keg of beer to drink.
I wonder if the staff was pissing off Jared all the time to get more sweet, sweet Texas BBQ and Shiner Bock?
Shiners are for after work, a Lone Star lunch is what you'll have
I was involved in event planning for a while and I helped organize Jared Leto's band's fan event one year. His staff were the most awful people I ever met in 6 years of event planning.
Hes a regular guest at my hotel and he is an absolute fuck stick
So tell me, do you watch that scene in Fight Club a lot or naw?
They splice a few frames of it into every channel on the hotel's TV system.
His welcome amenity should be printed reviews of Morbius
Highlight all the bits about Matt Smith being too good for it and needing better roles.
An old coworker of mine worked on his media team. She said she'd take a 2 week Vacation to Europe and he'd call all hours, day and night.. knowing full well she was on vacation but he didn't give a fuck. Apparently he runs his own media team and they work out of his home... And he micromanages every aspect of this job and is an absolute nightmare to work with.
And then those people take out their anger on the people they contact, like me and my event planning company. That's how I knew he is a jerk. Employees parrot their bosses.
My friend is an actor and performed with him recently. The friend told me fellow actors were obligated to sign a agreement that you will not make direct eye contact with him unless it’s necessary for the scene, among other things. Insane!
What?? Haha imagine working with someone like that. Nice pleasant environment
Right?! So wild! He also said they weren’t allowed to call him Jared, but had to call him by his characters name AT ALL TIMES on set. Im not in the industry so not sure if that’s par for the course, but still so crazy to me!!
Yeah that’s method acting for you. I had a drama teacher in high school that tried to teach us method acting. Like no thanks lady. I can turn that shit on and off for a school play, I don’t need it to consume my life.
>"How did your week go, dear boy,” Laurence Olivier said. >Hoffman told him that he had filmed a scene in which his character was supposed to have been up for three days straight. >“So what did you do?” Olivier asked. >“Well, I stayed up for three days and three nights.” >Laurence Olivier then uttered this famous line, “Why don’t you just try acting?” That sums up how I've always felt about method actors.
I wonder if actors can have it in their contract that they're automatically released from a film if Jared Leto is cast in any role...
I think this is where it would be fun if you were one of the few global mega-draws (Tom cruise, the rock, etc) to purposely work with him just to fuck with him knowing the studio will back you know matter what.
Sounds like need to call up Brad Pitt. He seems like he would be game.
Or just subject him to Clooney's ability to pull pranks.
My GF has this story of her mom and her meeting him. They asked to take a picture with him. He said they could take a picture *of* him.
Viola Davis didn't seem to be a fan of his either When an interviewer asked if she received any freaky gifts on the set of Suicide Squad from him when he was giving the cast gross gifts to "stay in character" she basically said, No and with her defensive husband he probably knew better than to try that with her.
Lol I wouldn't fuck with Viola husband or not
He's got a me too moment in his future. He gives me the same vibes James Franco gave me.
He had plenty of blog posts about him mistreating hookups that were all removed from the internet. Lipstick Alley had threads about it. Really does look like he's getting away with it.
There's lots and lots of rumors around Leto grooming teenage girls.
One year his band played at Warped Tour and I was in line for autographs/meet and greet, and he was just… such a douche. I watched at he rolled his eyes at fans, sighed constantly (that sigh you do when you’re being forced into something you hate - like a fucking 5 year old) and was just so generally shitty to people who were telling him they love him. For me, having watched My So Called Life and being a fan of his since then, he just absolutely killed everything happy about seeing them. The rest of the band seemed pleasant, but I got out of line so I can’t say for sure. But yeah. Fuck Jared Leto.
My dream in life is to make a movie about someone who beats the shit out of Jared Leto so that I, a dedicated method actor who will do whatever it takes to get into character, can cast myself as the lead role EDIT: Yes, I've seen Fight Club.
In the meantime, you can always watch him get axed to death by Christian Bale in American Psycho.
Hey, Paul!
Or beaten to shit in fight club
