32 Of The Biggest Falls From Grace In Hollywood, According To This Viral Thread

ADVERTISEMENT

The show business is brutal. One day you're a star, the next you're struggling to find a gig and desperately trying to stay relevant. And there are so many examples of the industry chewing up its talents!

To refresh their memory, Reddit user Conjobbed recently made a post on the platform, asking others, "Which actor [and] actress had the most depressing fall from grace?" People immediately started listing names.

Some of the mentioned celebrities lost their battles with addiction. Others committed despicable acts and have only themselves to blame. What's clear, though, is that there are plenty of ways for a career to end in Hollywood.

32 Of The Biggest Falls From Grace In Hollywood, According To This Viral Thread I don't think people growing up today realize how much of a father-figure Bill Cosby was to a huge number of us. He was nothing but wholesome in his presentation of himself.

For him to commit such ugly and awful things feels like a personal betrayal to all of us who grew up regarding him so highly.

What an a*****e.

The Star Wars fandom is as awesome as it is toxic. They did the same thing to Hayden Christensen, to the point where he quit acting for years. They treated him as if it was his fault that George Lucas can't write dialogs worth a damn. And then it happened again to the actors of the new movies. These people will never be satisfied.

32 Of The Biggest Falls From Grace In Hollywood, According To This Viral Thread O.J. Simpson. He wasn't primarily an actor certainly, but he did act (most notably in the Naked Gun movies and Roots). It's genuinely hard to explain to people who weren't alive at the height of his fame what a huge deal O.J. Simpson was, and how beloved he was, and how absolutely shocking it was when Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were murdered and then he went on the lam in the Bronco. It was wild to live through it. The older I get, the more I realize just how young Nicole and Ron were, and how much life they had left to live.

The OJ Simpson murder trial was muddied severely by the systemic, blatant racism in the LAPD. At the time a lot of people defended him just out of response to that - which is understandable - despite the evidence. 30 years later, it's pretty damn certain that he did it. Even though he didn't go to jail for murder, though, it's a stretch to say that OJ "got away with it".

32 Of The Biggest Falls From Grace In Hollywood, According To This Viral Thread Jussie Smollet - He was a rising star. I mean even people who didn't watch Empire kind of had an idea who he was (I have not watched Empire but their promos always featured him in flashy clothes and singing his heart out and I keep thinking man, this guy is a treat). Then he faked a hate crime and it was his downfall. It apparently cost him the show, endorsements backed out, etc. I'm still confused why he did it.

Jimmy Saville - Beloved by kids and grans all over the greater UK. He genuinely seemed like a great guy that takes care of sick people (like a caring uncle or something like that). And then he turned out to be a total monster who preyed on the sick children and teens who were in the hospitals he worked in. What's even more horrible is that this was kept from the public til he died.

It was shown in court that his accuser lied. He won. In the eye of the law, he was never an abuser. Sadly it is easy and so fast to accuse someone today and cancel without any proof

Binky Melnik 1 year ago (edited)

In the eye of the law, the prosecution didn’t present evidence to sway a jury, nor did it decide “he wasn’t an abuser.” That’s not in the jury’s purview. Doesn’t mean he’s innocent. His bad behavior was well-known in Hollywood a couple decades before the public heard about it. And think about all the people who don’t come forward because sexual assault is REALLY hard in the accuser (their entire dating history is brought up, just to name one really daunting aspect). I sat on a jury for three months in an embezzlement case. The two on trial were CLEARLY guilty to every single one of us. It was also clear the prosecution didn’t prove their case, so we let them go. Over drinks afterwards, the prosecutor told me he wasn’t allowed to present his best evidence. Sometimes, juries hafta let guilty people go. 😰

The stereotypical shy, innocent, modest, and well-mannered Midwestern boy from a loving home by all counts. Fame ripped him apart.

It's disgusting, and when you hear Dave Chappelle talk about how Hollywood corrupts and ruins good people.... it makes a lot of sense.

32 Of The Biggest Falls From Grace In Hollywood, According To This Viral Thread Charlie Chaplin. Greatest Actor of his time. The question of power is what you do when you have it. Chaplin choose to get political, to spread a message to the people. Those in power didn't like that. FBI got called in and he was forced into exile for being too political after being branded a communist at the height of the red scare. Hollywood let it happen and did nothing to defend him.

He received an honorary award at the Oscars in 1972, but it was to quiet Hollywood's guilt, instead of celebrate his art. All Entertainers exist to placate the masses. Bread and Circuses has been known since ancient Rome. If they go too far off script, the industry will disown them.

"Fall from grace" is not an accurate description for many of the people on this list. Tragedy is a more appropriate term for anyone whose demons get the better of them and their lives end with an overdose or suicide. These were talented, beautiful people who were very much loved when they passed and are still. There are several on the list who publicly went through personal hells but that also not a "fall from grace " Calling it that seems like an attempt to shame them and they don't deserve that.

"Fall from grace" is not an accurate description for many of the people on this list. Tragedy is a more appropriate term for anyone whose demons get the better of them and their lives end with an overdose or suicide. These were talented, beautiful people who were very much loved when they passed and are still. There are several on the list who publicly went through personal hells but that also not a "fall from grace " Calling it that seems like an attempt to shame them and they don't deserve that.

(1) Victims do not "fall from grace". (2) BP needs to provide more context. We shouldn't have to google who these people are. You're writing the article; stop slacking.

What always confuses me about these threads is that I don't know whether to upvote or downvote the Bill Cosby thing, for example...if I upvote, does that mean that this orifice was justly punished? And if I downvote, does that mean Bill Cosby is innocent? How do you see it, my fellow pandas?

This is TWO lists - one of terrible people who fell from grace, and one of people who suffered terribly. How can Brendan Frasier possibly be on the same list as Alison Mack?

More context would be great. First of all I dont even know most of those people (so I guess I am not TV-addicted enough, lucky me) and so I dont know the stories. I cant even tell who was a victim and who did a crime on that list.
