30 Of The Creepiest Things These Celebrities Ended Up Doing That Completely Shifted The Public’s Perception Of Them
It’s pretty typical for fans to put famous people on the pedestal. Whether it’s the lead vocalist of an all-time favorite band or an actress from the new popular series, they often become idolized. That’s why they might be viewed as those capable of no harm, which makes contrary cases somewhat shocking news.
So, it’s no surprise that when it comes to celebrity-related stories, their fans and critics likewise have something to say. That might be one of the reasons for the abundance of answers to the Reddit user ohwowsports6’s question. They asked the ‘Ask Reddit’ community about what famous people they consider to be creepy and the members didn’t shy away from making their opinions known. Scroll down to find their answers below.

Jared Fogle from Subway.
Started out with a mild cholesterol problem and ended up with a child molesterol problem.

Trump has been acussed of sexual harrassment and a*****t by at least 25 women since the 1970s.

And yet the dumb portion of my fellow Americans voted this shitsnack into office.
#3
Woody Allen was hiding in plain sight.
Waited until his stepdaughter was 18 (if you believe that part), then started banging her right away! While still with her mom! And married her!
#4
Kanye.
There is no excuse for his propagating of white supremacist slogans and classic antisemitism about Jewish power, especially with the platform he has.
#5
Gwyneth Paltrow.
She promotes wacky wellness trends and is obsessed with strange diets and procedures (like rectal ozone therapy). Even though she's a good actress, I find this obsession creepy.
#6
Mahatma Gandhi would test his 'purity' by sleeping with naked girls that were underage and related to him.
#7
Tom Cruise.
Scientology abuses people quite a lot, read more up on the survivors' accounts (non-famous people) and you'll see why he's creepy.
#8
Harvey Weinstein.
Over 80 women in the film industry have accused Weinstein of sexual abuse acts.
Enlee Jones 1 year ago
He r@ped Rose McGowan and Annabella Sciorra, and torpedoed the careers of Ashley Judd and Mira Sorvino because they refused his advances.
#9
Bill Cosby, accused by sixty women of r*pe, drug facilitated sexual a****lt, sexual battery, or other sexual misconduct.
You know at first I was skeptical. I thought that there's probably a lot of vultures in Hollywood just waiting for a lawsuit to get their pound of flesh in. But then I saw this clip from The Cosby Show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBDRwiSZSBg), and I immediately was put off. It's right there, he's grinning as he admits it to the world, but nobody knows but him — delighted that his secret is hidden in plain sight.
#11
Jimmy Savile. Sexually abused hundreds of people throughout his life.
The stories some of the nurses who worked in the children's wards he visited have some stories about him that would make your toes curl, to the point they told children to pretend to be asleep before he turned up so that he would avoid them. He was also known to spend time down in the morgue for 'reasons'.

Didn't the singer of the s*x pistols call him out on his abuse and no one cared?
#12
Dan Schneider, he took advantage of young cast members on his Nickelodeon shows, and had a feet fetish.
I remember seeing random episodes of his shows and always wondering, "Why the hell are feet involved in this? How did this pass the editing/writers room?" Numerous people have to sign off and give notes on television production and NO ONE ever thought, "hey, maybe we shouldn't have this weird, feet stuff on our kids show all the time..?"
#13
Jared Leto is a massive creep and cult leader.
He has been accused of sexual a*****t a few times, and there’s compelling evidence against him, but for some reason not enough to get him charged.
He'd been harassing other actors on set in the name of ‘method acting’. He has sent his co-stars used condoms, anal beads, and even a dead rat.
Barbra E. Nyberg 1 year ago (edited)
This guy triggered my creep alert even before this info started leaking.
#14
No one's mentioned Roman Polanski? Shocked quite a few people when his arrest/prosecution/flight from justice became news. He drugged and sexually a*****ted a 13-year-old girl.
When he won the Academy Award for best director, he got a standing ovation. Harrison Ford accepted the award on his behalf and made a special trip to Paris to hand deliver the award. Hollywood is full of p**o-loving scumbags.
#15
Jerry Lee Lewis didn’t just marry his 13-year-old cousin, he also had two wives who died under mysterious circumstances in the 1980s. Rolling Stone did a huge story that more or less said that he’d murdered one of them, but that as one of the richest people in that part of Mississippi the sheriffs etc. wouldn’t touch him.
#16
Danny Masterson.
I'll never forgive him for ruining That 70s Show for me. I was looking forward to introducing it to the kids at the right age (especially because there's a certain line from Hyde that I used to quote all the time) but now just thinking about watching his stupid smug serial r*pist face on screen makes my stomach turn.
#17
Phil Spector. Absolute musical genius, but a very deranged S**T excuse for a person who abused his wife (Ronnie Spector) and kids, and shot a woman to death (actress Lana Clarkson) for refusing his sexual advances toward her.
Enlee Jones 1 year ago
He destroyed his own legacy. When he died in 2021 it was barely a blip on the radar.
#18
Jerry Seinfeld dated a 17 year old when he was 38. That's very creepy.
By the way, and I had forgotten about this before, but does anyone remember the episode where they ogled a 15-year-old and Jerry defended it as being normal?

Never watched the show because it had too many creepy people.
#19
Met Jack Hanna once at a zoo charity. He had wandering hands when he took pictures with girls.
I know Jack through a family friend who used to buy animals from him. She bought them to save them from those canned hunt things.
Jack Hannah is a creepy animal abuser and it makes me so mad when people think he’s an American Steve Irwin. Because he’s actually Cruella Devil.

Nobody who hawks out baby animals for tv and film is a good person. Unless it is absolutely necessary to save the animal's life, no young animal should be hand-reared, especially if the reason for handrearing is for the purposes of making the animal "tame" and compliant.
#20
Marilyn Manson is a Nazi memorabilia collector and preys on very young women.
Phoenix(or nix)they/them 1 year ago
He do be looking like the wet paper towel for wiping paint brushes tho
#21
Hugh Hefner. The whole Playboy, sophisticated party guy image worked in the 60 s and 70 s, but didn’t last. When he was in his 80s still partying with 20 year old women it was beyond cringe and the whole Playboy mansion lifestyle turned creepy.
#22
James Franco.
He preyed on girls through Instagram and flew to places where the age of consent was lower to have sex with 16/17 year old.
#23
Ezra Miller. They've gotta have something wrong in the head, and the fact that they didn’t lose their acting job truly upsets me.
Hope that young child they [allegedly] groomed is far away from them and back home.
and_a_touch_of_the_’tism 1 year ago
Yeah. It’s people like them that perpetuate s**t about the LGBTQ+ community.
#24
Kevin Spacey.
He seemed a little off to me at the peak of his career. Always liked his characters. I guess he's a damn good actor. Now I just see this predator though.
I've tried to separate the art from the artist, then watching a movie or show and just keep thinking back to to the creepiness.
#25
Gary Glitter.
His name is barley spoken nowadays, for a reason. His career ended after he was imprisoned for downloading child pornography in 1999. He was also convicted of child sexual abuse in 2006 and a series of sexual offences (including attempted r**e) in 2015.
#26
Alfred Hitchcock was a weird one.
Basically stalked some actresses and tried to control their lives; told them what they could/couldn’t eat, where they could/couldn’t go. He sent Tippi Hedren inappropriate Valentines letters. She claims he threw himself atop her in a hotel room and kissed her — and in her biography accused him of sexual a*****t.
#27
I'm kind of shocked nobody has mentioned Armie Hammer yet.
He’s tried to convince women he’s dating to get a rib surgically removed so he can eat it.
What he wants, though, is to own those women. He wants them to submit to him- not because he’s paying them off, but because they want to. It’s a sexual thing for him (like it is with many serial killers). But the willing submission I think is a huge part of the appeal to him.
#28
Louis CK. He’d m*sturbated in front of female colleagues.
#29
Ian Watkins. Absolutely horrific crimes, including sexually abusing infant children (to put it mildly).
#30
Matt Lauer.
Matt was a much-loved NBC presenter until his reputation was tarnished by sexual a*****t allegations.
What do you think ?

Chris Brown is a woman-beating piece of sh*t. Sean Connery said it was okay to smack a woman if she was too uppity. John Wayne was an epic racist and homophobe.
