Had it all, including the respect of most Americans regardless of politics.
Then decided he was enough of a somebody to get away with doxxing and defaming a couple of nobodies. Miscalculated that- he wasn’t enough of a somebody, and they turned out not to be nobodies.
It’s hard for me to look at Brad Pitt the same after that private jet story came out and seeing how his kids can’t stand him. Hollywood has conveniently ignored it all though.
Ellen Degeneres. Absolute cunt who tried to get a server fired because her nail polish was slightly chipped. Acted like she was an amazing nice person and always told people to be nice when she treated her workers like shit.
No one’s going to beat the fall of Jimmy Saville. He was considered a national treasure.
I watched Jim’ll fix it, a show where he’d bring on kids to grant wishes. At the time it was heartwarming, every British kid would have loved to be on that show and would have worn their distinctive medal with pride.
The moment he died it all came out and my entire generation saw a memory of childhood nostalgia turned into filth. How fucking sinister it all seems now
Joss Whedon. I loved his shows. Was a huge Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan. Then I heard about what an ass he was to the female cast, to the point that he wasn’t allowed to be in the same room with one of the actresses because he harassed her so badly and he called another actress fat when he knew she was pregnant.
The other one that broke my heart was Nathan Fillion. The way he bullied Stana Katic.
I tried to watch 136 Hours recently because I had listened to a podcast about the actual story, but it was WAY too much time alone with James Franco. Fuck James Franco.
Whew—there’ve been plenty, right? But one that really shook people? Russell Brand. Used to be this wild, funny, lovable weirdo. Bit of a sex maniac, sure, but people chalked it up to his “rock star” persona. Then the stories started dropping—serious ones. Allegations of sexual assault, manipulation, all kinds of messed-up stuff. Went from “crazy comedian” to “hold up, this dude’s a problem” real fast.
Another one? Armie Hammer. Hollywood golden boy, looked like the All-American type. Then bam—texts leaked, stories came out about disturbing stuff involving cannibal fantasies and abuse. Whole thing spiraled.
When people show you their highlight reel for years, it hits different when the behind-the-scenes comes out and it’s pure garbage.
Justin Sane the lead singer of Anti-Flag, a political punk band, really disappointed the hell out of me when it came out that he was regularly predating on his fans, including underage girls. He turned out to be the opposite of everything they sung about. They were one of my favorite bands but now I can’t listen to them.
Elon Musk was beloved on the internet and thought of as a real-life Tony Stark. Then he fired his PR team and started showing his true colors. People also found out about his family’s backstory. And, y’know, all the facism and bigotry.
He was on the cusp of breaking into hollywood, and already had an established niche in standup and podcast career (i.e. he mainly appealed to women).
There was always something a bit off about him though. Turned out he was doing some Drake type shit (i.e. hitting up underage women on social media, aiming to hook up with them when they were legal).
Nothing about what he did appears to be illegal, but it is sketchy and ruined any appeal he had with his primary audience.
Now he comes across as very mentally unstable (i.e. breaking down crying during his last standup special, being forced to do podcasts with Brendan Schaub etc.) and was dropped by all of his former unfunny “comedy” bros (Rogan etc.).

Sean combs aka Diddy

It’s not all that recent but Bill Cosby. People forget just how popular he was.
Kevin Spacey
Kanye West
Lance Armstrong

Ezra Miller
We seem to all agree on the definition of incredibly despicable but not at all on what is relatively recent. 😂
Alice Munro (author).
She didn’t stop her husband from abusing her daughter (his stepdaughter).
Neil Gaiman
Amanda Palmer
Ghandi was great on public social issues. He was a despicable human being in his private life.

Just assume all celebrities are pieces of shit and some are just better at hiding it and you’ll never be disappointed.

Gaiman. Fuck Neil Gaiman.
for those who watch Korean dramas, the actor Kim Soohyun
There are a lot of these. Either kill your idols or separate art and person.
But Neil Gaiman, how sad.
Remember Kony 2012?
Wayne Gretzky.

Not despicable, but Will Smith went from smiley friendly Hollywood nice guy to just another thin-skinned narcissistic celebrity with just one slap.

In Canada , maybe Buffy Sainte – Marie
Dan Price. (Assaulted me and raped several other women; still hasn’t served jailtime yet)
Ned from the Try Guys.
Imagine branding yourself as “the wife guy” for years and then getting caught cheating on your wife…
with an employee.
Bro wasn’t just a disappointment —
he speedran the full arc from “relatable nerd” to “HR violation in khakis.”
