00:00I remember finding out about how bad everything was.

00:04Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're looking at the times celebrities couldn't think of anybody but themselves,

00:09with dire consequences for others.

00:11Because a lot of people say, well, why didn't you fight him off? Why didn't you run?

00:15A lot of people are also stupid.

00:17Sean Combs.

00:18So, who do you like?

00:21Blondie.

00:22Christina Aguilera.

00:23Who? No! Come on!

00:26What?

00:26You. Shortstop.

00:28Puff Daddy.

00:30Wrong.

00:30Sean Love Combs, born Sean John Combs, is a man who has put several spins on his name over the years.

00:36But whether the record producer and rapper chooses to call himself Diddy, Puff Daddy, or P. Diddy,

00:41there's dirt on all of these names following a series of controversies.

00:45Um, I'm not sure if you want to answer this, but what are your thoughts on everything going on with Diddy right now?

00:50Combs' former partner, Cassie, filed a lawsuit against the disgraced hip-hop mogul in November 2023,

00:56alleging that he physically and sexually assaulted her on multiple occasions.

01:00After quickly settling out of court, Diddy likely crossed his fingers and hoped that that was the end.

01:05But this lawsuit was simply the first domino to fall

01:08before a string of further sexual misconduct accusations were made against him,

01:12including an alleged incident involving a minor.

01:14With graphic video now backing up their claims,

01:17many of them hope Sean Combs will soon be trading his obscene lifestyle for a jail cell.

01:23Matthew Broderick.

01:24Life moves pretty fast.

01:27If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

01:30During a 1987 vacation in Ireland with then-girlfriend and Dirty Dancing star Jennifer Grey,

01:36the two celebs were involved in a car accident.

01:38Details on the incident remain cloudy, but it has been alleged Broderick was in the incorrect lane

01:43of the wet, slippery road when his rented BMW hit an oncoming vehicle.

01:47Broderick, you have excellent taste in automobiles.

01:50The crash resulted in the occupants of that vehicle,

01:53Margaret Doherty, and her daughter, Anna Gallagher, losing their lives.

01:56Broderick and Grey were lucky to escape with theirs.

01:59Grey sustained whiplash and other non-life-threatening injuries,

02:01and Broderick suffered a concussion, broken ribs, broken leg, and a collapsed lung.

02:06Broderick escaped with a minor charge of careless driving and a tiny fine,

02:10probably because of his celebrity status.

02:15Danny Masterson.

02:16For the victims of Danny Masterson, today was a day of reckoning.

02:20The former actor, and now convicted felon, brought to justice.

02:24Danny Masterson is famous for working with Ashton Kutcher on projects like That 70 Show.

02:29However, the actor's resurgence in popularity due to acting with Kutcher on their Netflix series,

02:33The Ranch, was short-lived.

02:35This is due to being at the end of a trio of sexual assault allegations,

02:39for incidents alleged to have taken place in 2001 and 2003.

02:42These are allegations that go back to 2002.

02:46Danny Masterson has always maintained his innocence.

02:49Following an investigation by the LAPD, criminal charges were brought against the actor in 2020.

02:54After pleading not guilty, Masterson went through two trials over the crimes,

02:57the first of which resulted in a hung jury.

03:00The second trial, however, saw him convicted for two of his three cases,

03:03resulting in a sentence of 30 years to life in prison.

03:06Masterson's two victims, who have not been publicly identified,

03:10termed Jane Doe 1 and 2, saw their attacker in court sentenced to 30 years to life.

03:24The film industry accolades that French-Polish director Roman Polanski has received

03:29are shocking, considering what he's been accused of.

03:31In 1977, Polanski was charged with inappropriate sexual contact with a minor,

03:36after which he accepted a plea deal and penalty by probation.

03:39Once the director realized he might still be imprisoned, he fled to his home country, France.

03:51Despite attempts that have been made to extradite Polanski, he remains free.

03:55He even won a Best Director Oscar in 2003,

03:58and we're still seriously side-eyeing all those who gave him a standing ovation at the time.

04:06On 7th Heaven, Stephen Collins endeared himself to viewers

04:19as loving father and helpful pastor Eric Camden.

04:22In hindsight, everything about the actor's wholesome image felt manipulative

04:26when appalling audio was released in 2014,

04:28where Collins confessed to acting inappropriately with minors.

04:36The recording came from a marriage counseling session two years earlier.

04:44The statute of limitations means that Collins saw no proper justice for his crimes,

04:48despite publicly acknowledging that they occurred between 1973 and 1994.

04:52If there's any silver lining, after decades of success,

04:55the reaction to these recordings meant his career was very much over.

04:59The first incident was in 1973. You were 25 years old. How old was the victim?

05:16In recent years, wrestler Hulk Hogan has been involved in controversy,

05:20including multiple lawsuits and racist rants caught on camera.

05:24It may be a case of like father like son when it comes to character,

05:27as Hogan's son, Nick, was driving under the influence in 2007

05:30when an accident took place that almost claimed his passenger's life.

05:36While the passenger, a friend named John Graziano, survived, he still wasn't lucky,

05:41sustaining severe brain injuries resulting in him needing full-time care for the remainder of his

05:45days. For his carelessness, Hogan was sentenced to only 8 months of jail time,

05:50and this would not be the last time he was caught driving drunk.

05:57Kanye West

06:08It's hard to believe that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West once seemed like one of show

06:12business' strongest power couples. However, very little in Ye's life seems to last forever.

06:17His ego, on the other hand? That never seems to fade.

06:20Following Kim and Ye's separation, the Kardashian moved on a few months later,

06:24starting a new relationship with SNL cast member Pete Davidson.

06:36Kanye did not approve of the couple, to say the least. The rapper and fashion designer even went

06:41as far as to release a video for his and the game's single, Easy, that depicted an animated

06:46Davidson getting buried alive. The comedian reportedly had to attend trauma therapy in

06:50response to West's online abuse. Bill Cosby

07:01A staggeringly high number of women, over 60, have accused comedian and actor Bill Cosby of

07:06sexual assault, with reports of incidents that date back 50 years. The open secret of Cosby's

07:11behavior had faded into the background until a comedy routine from Eric Andre's sidekick,

07:16Hannibal Buress, resurfaced the allegations in October 2014.

07:25The next year saw Cosby charged with three counts of indecent assault,

07:29stemming from events that occurred in 2004 at Cosby's home. He was found guilty in 2018,

07:34and sentenced to three to ten years of imprisonment. However, this was overturned

07:38in 2021 due to illegal technicality. To the dismay of many, Cosby is a free man.

07:46Harvey Weinstein

07:59Harvey Weinstein was once one of the most powerful and influential producers in Hollywood.

08:03As anybody familiar with the revelations that ignited the global Me Too movement know,

08:07he significantly abused this position. Weinstein used promises of advancing

08:11the careers of several women he worked with to sexually assault and harass them.

08:16Another cause of an open secret in Hollywood, the show Business Whispers became much louder in 2017,

08:30when an expose on the producer was published by the New York Times and The New Yorker.

08:34The report contained accounts from many women accusing him of sexual misconduct. In 2020,

08:39many were relieved as Weinstein was convicted of sexual assault and sentenced to 23 years of

08:44imprisonment. Before we continue, be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring the bell to

09:08R. Kelly

09:18Despite incidents in the accusations against the once R&B superstar dating back to the early 90s,

09:23R. Kelly avoided punishment for his crimes for years, simply being labeled a playboy.

09:27This all changed with the release of a documentary series in 2019.

09:39That Lifetime series, Surviving R. Kelly, detailed allegations of sexual misconduct

09:43against the singer from several women. The artist was arrested on multiple charges and in 2022,

09:49sentenced to 30 years in prison after being found guilty of nine counts of sex trafficking

09:53and racketeering. A later trial also found him guilty of six additional charges.

09:58It's estimated Kelly should be in jail at least through 2045.
