Was Seth MacFarlane Profiting From Other People's Pain?
The recent sexual harassment scandals that have plagued Hollywood have come not so much as a shock, but as a disappointment to many. It all began with the revelations about Harvey Weinstein, as a growing list of women came forward to tell their stories of the abuses they had suffered at his hands. Then came Star Trek: Discovery actor, Anthony Rapp, who revealed that Kevin Spacey had sexually harassed him when he was 14 years-old at a party. Spacey released a bizarre apology that ultimately ended up doing more harm than good to the actor's already shattered reputation, which sought to distract attention away from the story of his victim, and made it about his own sexuality. Now most recently come the stories about Director Brett Ratner, accused by a string of women of varying degrees of sexual harassment. Ratner denies the allegations outright, but all these people have one thing in common: their sexually predatory nature was joked about in different forms many years before the revelations have become public.

Why is Kevin Spacey More Condemned Than Others?
I am pissed at Kevin Spacey. It's true that I've never been a massive fan of his, though American Beauty stands up to the test of time. House of Cards helped launch Netflix into the original programming arena and earned him multiple Emmy nominations. Even the allegations that Anthony Rapp leveled at Spacey can take that away. That story that Rapp told about Spacey coming on to him is why I have such vehement anger at the Oscar winner. But a friend asked me a question that needs to be examined: Why is Kevin Spacey getting the wrong end of publicity surrounding sexual abuse and sexual harassment that has engulfed Hollywood over the last month?

What's Going On with Jim Carrey?
I don't know of many people who didn't instantly fall in love with Jim Carrey early on in his comedy career. He always presented himself as kind of the wacky friend everyone has. You know the one. The one who can't behave himself in public? But why would you want him to? He's freaking hilarious!

Men Like Kevin Hart Don't Need Fame
We're all up to speed about Mr. Hart's infidelity, or at least we should be. According to TMZ, Kevin Hart is reportedly being extorted by an alleged other woman for the release of a "sexually suggestive" video involving himself and a Puerto Rican Instagram model. This video has since been released. Back in July, there was video footage of himself and the woman talking to her from the backseat. The clip seemed as though there may have been some lip locking but was never confirmed. Kevin Hart and his pregnant wife barely responded to it and were shown together at events and posting videos dancing as if nothing ever happened, until now.
