The Pile: A Piling List

Looks like we can definitively add NDT to the list. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...sexual-misconduct-n954431?cid=sm_npd_nn_fb_ma

A high achievement to aim for, given that 2018 was the year Mariah Carey tried to remind the world that Mariah Carey still exists

That's not what it says.
It says Startalk is on hold.
Talking Dead pulled Chris Hardwick, but he got exonerated.

And if this happened shortly after the claims against NDT started getting traction, I'd agree with you. It's been months since the stories got notice. Remember what happened with Bryan Singer? There was the lawsuit that nobody paid attention to for a while, and then suddenly he got the ax from the movie he was working on? I'd say that the odds of something unpalatable surfacing on NDT in the near future are now pretty high.

They are double checking to make sure before they cancel the show and walk him to the nearest exit.

And given the amount of time and money they've poured into his show and the Cosmos show for them to suddenly put the Startalk on hold is a big deal. If there was nothing to these allegations the show would still be up and running.

I think Tuckerfan is right. Something else is going to come out about him. These guys, the guilty ones, never just have one or two women problems. It's a lot of different women. I bet there are new allegations that haven't gone public yet.

Well, now we wait for the other shoe to drop.

oh she still exists - if only in my naughty fantasies!

No one needs to be reminded Mariah Carey exists.
Mariah Carey draws her power from Christmas itself.

every year she sings that I (and I alone!) am "all she wants for Christmas" but she ends up being disappointed because I'm already spoken for.

The only "extra layer" is the fact that they say mean things about bigots and racists and they're pretty swift at cleaning up their own messes when they come out....at which point people like Zombie claim Hollywood and "liberal elites" are eating their own and too quick to pass judgement.

Add Ronaldo to the list.

Kinda funny, because I assumed all soccer (football) players were homosexual, given how gay the sport is.

the comments were very interesting! So many people ask (what are getting to be) the same questions:
why didn't she go to the authorities first? Why did you even associate with the guy if she already knew about his terrible reputation?

Chris Pratt, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, and Kendall Jenner?

Aw. I would rather hope that he's just not aware of the church's terrible history, and attends like other famous people do Joel Osteen's church, or back when Robert Schuller had his Crystal Cathedral. You know, celebrity type churches.

okay let me get this straight (no pun intended) about the anti-gay thing: the founder molested a 7 year old boy (which I guess is cool) but gay adult members are not cool?

Chris Pratt is well known as being a quite conservative Republican Christian, he definitely isn't Andy Dwyer.

Whaaaat? Next you’ll tell me Peter Quill isn’t real.

Well, I don’t generally keep tabs on celebrities outside of their roles. This was actually the first time I had ever heard of Chris Pratt’s religious views.

It's why I haven't added them to the OP yet.

Really! Any Catholic celebrity would be thrown on the pile!

Nah, they seem to be by and large unpiled

Chris Brown. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46957860

Which will come as a surprise to no one.

bear in mind he is a SUSPECT at this point. The only thing actually proven in his record is beating up Rihanna. I don't know him from Adam but he is innocent until proven guilty.

Indeed, and I didn't say he was guilty. I simply said it was a surprise to no one. It shouldn't surprise anyone that sexual assault allegations have been thrown at him, because of his record of domestic abuse with Rihanna, and his frequent arrests over assaulting other women. Rihanna wasn't the only time he decided a woman needed beating.

really? That fucker (and all women beaters) needs to eat a bullet. One reason I couldn't be a cop - it would be very hard to show restraint over & over and not snap at some point. I have a wife, a daughter, and two grand daughters - I will not stand for violence against them.

Yep. A long history.

The domestic abuse should have been enough to end his career years ago. Sad that it hasn't.
