“Age ain’t nothing but a number,” sang Aaliyah when she was just 14. At the time, her producer, R. Kelly would have agreed. But those lyrics didn’t age well for him. Kelly married the R&B singer shortly after the song was recorded. Aaliyah was 15 while he was 27. Her parents found out and had the marriage annulled. It had illegally listed Aaliyah's age as 18.
Aaliyah died in a plane crash a few years later. But for the next two decades, Kelly was accused of preying on teenage girls in the entertainment industry. The predator was finally pinned down, found guilty of a range of sickening crimes. And sent to jail for thirty years.
But Kelly isn’t the only famous person who got away with disgusting behavior for far too long. As Redditor u/Pranav_p_n found out when they asked people to name creepy celebs who have hidden behind their fame.

Are you implying that sending teens to terrible facilities that abuse them is a bad thing? Or was it the inappropriate relationship he had with a patient? Or his first wife alleging physical abuse? For me it's the exploiting people in their most vulnerable states for tv ratings and feeding their addiction for better content.

Gandhi. He was a very racist dude who forced his grand-niece to sleep in bed with him, naked, to reenforce his celibacy.

Well idk if this counts but at one point Jimmy Savile was basically the UKs favourite TV presenter at the time, oh if only people had known of the stuff he did *before* he died peacefully of old age...

What do Charlie Chaplin and Charles Dickens have in common? It’s a lot more sinister than just their first names. Or their classic celebrity status. Both adult men were in relationships with very young girls. Both got them pregnant before they turned 16. It was a primitive “practice” that wasn’t always frowned upon back in the day.

But in the age of #MeToo and modern times, there are somehow still grown ass men who are not only “dating" minors. They're marrying them too. It might sound sick. And it is. But in many countries and some U.S. states, it’s actually legal. Countless organizations are working to end child marriage.

Hugh Hefner.

medurevengea
"Struggling gravely in her early life, Marilyn Monroe was desperate and had nude photos taken. She was so embarassed by what she needed to do for money she signed the forms with a fake name. She asked the photographer to promise he would take the photos in a way no one would recognize her. She was paid $50.

Years later, Hugh Hefner obtained her nudes without her consent. For $500 he bought her nudes and plastered them on the first ever issue of Playboy Magazine. He sold 50,000 copies. Marilyn was not paid a cent, as Hefner knew she did not consent to this.

Decades before his death, Hefner paid $75,000 to have his dead body buried in a grave next to Marilyn’s.

Afterall, the success of Playboy was due to the sex crimes Hugh Hefner committed against this woman he sexually exploited and violated."

Steven Tyler.

Nothing says love like getting a groupie teen girl's parents to sign over guardianship of her to you so you can f**k her. When you are a 25 year old adult man and she's 16 just barely. And then getting her knocked up at 17. I mean if that isn't grooming... I mean "love" what is?
Seriously though Steven Tyler is f**king gross.

UNICEF estimates that around “650 million girls and women alive today were married before their 18th birthday.” South Asia is home to almost half of them, with 285 million child brides. And sub-Saharan Africa has 115 million women or girls who walked down the aisle as minors. Child marriage is on the decline, but not enough is being done to eradicate it completely. In 2016, the United Nations revealed that if current trends continue, we could see a billion child brides by 2030. Scary.

Paul Walker. When he was 36 years old his 16 year old girlfriend moved in with him. When he was 28 he had another 16 year old girlfriend living with him. He's very lucky he died before #metoo blew his s**t up. He should be remembered as a p***phile and not an actor.

Jerry Seinfeld had a teen gf when he was like 35. And now all he does is whine about cancel culture because people don't laugh at his jokes anymore. His comedy is just really dated, its not the cancel culture.

Also pretty much every cool rock star from the 70s were statutory r**ists. I love a lot of those bands but ick.

If you think the problem is isolated to Asia and Africa, you’re wrong. Child marriage was legal in all 50 U.S. states right up until 2017. And was only outlawed in Washington, Virginia and New Hampshire this year. Men are still allowed to marry minors in 37 states. Almost 300 thousand young girls got married between 2000 and 2018. Some were as young as 10. Most married adult men. Those are some sick statistics from Unchained At Last. An organization working to end child marriages.

Unchained partnered with Quest Research & Investigations, Kroll, Quantitative Analysis, and McGill University to investigate how many child brides there are in America. The researchers got hold of marriage-certificate data from various U.S. states. And checked the ages of everyone that tied the knot between 2000 and 2018. They published this study in the Journal Of Adolescent Health. And revealed some disturbing facts that many might not even be aware of.

I don't know how, in this day and age that Michael Jackson is still worshipped. Anyone else with his track record would be cancelled to oblivion (i know he is dead but posthumously). It is really strange to me.

Nevada tops the list with 17,403 girls married as minors between 2000 and 2018. The researchers said “Minors—even highly mature 17-year-olds—have limited legal rights and therefore can easily be forced into marriage or forced to stay in an unwanted marriage.” They added that the impacts were devastating. 

“Girls in the U.S. who marry in their teens are more likely to drop out of high school, never graduate from college, and end up living in poverty, and they are at greater risk of psychiatric disorders,” noted the study.

Machine Gun Kelly is kind of out there honestly. im expecting to be destroyed for it.

He has an old tweet wishing 13-15 year old girls weren’t hot and he didn’t feel like a creep for looking at them. Just major creeper vibe

There’s also a video where he justifies openly sexualizing a 16 year old Kendall Jenner by saying how rock stars slept with teenage girls, therefore he’s just being a real rock star!

Unchained At Last says child marriage is like giving predators a “get out of jail free card”. Most states have laws against statutory rape. But in many cases, sex with a minor becomes legal within marriage. The organization said, “At least 34,943–40,224 marriages since 2000 occurred at an age or with a spousal age difference that should have constituted a sex crime under the relevant state's law.” In about 80% of those marriages, sex between the parties became legal once a marriage license was issued.

Its the Pope Francisco. I am from Argentina and he is so loved by a lot of people when the old turd is such a p**o creep shielder and at the same time gave continous support to the worse corrupt goverment the country had (Kirchnerism) wich doomed our generations and our future in so many ways.

Ironically if someone deserves at least a small vacation through hell its that s**t stain and his whole stupid castle.

Edit: oh teah now i remembered he also blamed NATO for provoking Russia defending their actions, hijo de puta.

In it’s closing statement, the study notes “The world cannot keep its promise to end child marriage by year 2030 if we continue to ignore the hundreds of thousands of children marrying in the U.S. Every U.S. state and territory must pass legislation to do what we demand from the rest of the world: End child marriage.”
