Thought this was bumped for Chris Brown

Fake news, apparently - and not the first time to happen to him too.
She said she was there, Chris Brown did nothing and the man who hit her had no relation to Chris Brown either.
Surely the only "fake news" is the fact this specific women was involved? And she's not named in the Guardian article above. I don't even think she was named in the article that broke the story in France.
There's another piece of her instagram story missing from the tweet, she says she's not the one who filed for rape but she was there and nothing happened. The man who hit her had no relation to Chris Brown.
So we will have to wait and see what happens.
Sure. We have to let justice take its course. Which involves not getting caught up in hearsay. The story linked above isn’t “fake news” though. Throwing round accusations of “fake news” just because we don’t like what we’re reading is kind of Trumpy.
I'm a little bit hesitant to believe this considering that the Twitter account that is posting all of this is clearly some kind of Chris Brown fan site. And at the end of the day he was arrested by French police. I think we'll have to wait and see before we know for sure, but it's definitely too early to call anything fake news.
It's just screenshots from the girls instagram story, she definitely said those things, we just have to wait and see where it goes from here.
Of course, I was more pointing out that no high profile personnality accused of sexual crimes in France ever get in real trouble. Charges almost always dropped, no conviction if by any chance there's still a trial and if the proof is really overwhelming just a slap on the wrist.
You know Nuttin!
Bryan Singer being Bryan Singer.
Would only be his 15th offense or something like that with no jail time.
Big Ryan Adams story in the NYT including an alleged online relationship with a 15 year old girl.
Ugh what a creep
I'm seeing 'A Star is Born' in a totally new light after reading that.
His response, just your typical non-apology.
Was Adams accused of something before? Because for some reason I already had it in my head that he was a creep.
Yeah it does hold much weight when you issue it after being caught.
It's well documented that he's a complete and utter cnut. First I've heard of sexual assault though.
Already been accused multipe times. Still gets to make his shite.
What a feck up. Hope they find it.
I'm not sure who Max Landis is but it appears he's quite the scumbag.
Son of John Landis, who made Blues Brothers, Trading Places, Coming to America, etc. Quite the arsehole himself apparently. Max Landis wrote Chronicle and Bright. Bright should tell you everything you need to know about him.
I keep reading it as Canadian sensation Bryan Adams
Perverted old men and young girls willing to give anything to get rich and famous. What could go wrong.
Call me old fashioned but if I'm a young girl and some sleazy director asks me up to his bedroom to go over lines or whatever. I know I'm not going up there to read lines.
Don't get me wrong. This is an abuse of power. However what the feck were these girls thinking?
I'm not putting the blame on the girls but they surely knew what was expected of them.
Maybe I am too a degree. They put their career and millions of dollars above their principals. Maybe their parents told them to do it that way.

The thing is though, imagine if a career in entertainment is your passion. It's genuinely all you want and love and enjoy doing.
Should a young girl give up on all that? Some will choose to grind it out and do these "little favors" here and there, but they never should have been in that dilemma in the first place. No girl should be expected to do these things to get a career.
And it's tough to walk away from your passion if you've given up other career roads.
I'm agreeing with you. Maybe I said it wrong.
I think it's the same person but the previous case was a civil one.
What does everyone make of all this?
Doesn't matter in the court of public opinion
Is he on the hook for any other allegations or was it just this one?
Hes still being investigated in a couple of places, and I think theres a federal charge against him for something. Its all far from being over for spacey.
He’s obviously a total creep, he has loads of accusers and this kind of behaviour has been documented on the quiet for a long time. Beating one rap won’t save his reputation.
