Met Bill Pullman at an after-premiere party at more or less the height of his fame (my wife worked at the studio for the movie we had just seen). People always talked to me at these things until they found out I worked in the lowly service industry, and then would immediately terminate the conversation and get the hell out of there (since I could be of no use to them). Bill Pullman was the opposite. He actually got excited that I was not one of these "phony a******s," but instead a real person, and talked to me for a good while, just shooting the s**t about whatever, asking me about what my work was like. You would not believe the stories I have about people my wife worked with, former classmates, etc, behaving like I may as well be rolling in a sewer to be working a regular job and doing my art on the side, instead of climbing a ladder somewhere. It was nice to have someone way more successful than any of them coming from the opposite direction, and I always thought I would give him public props if I ever got the chance, so hopefully this doesn't get too buried.

I was a child when the Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton thing happened. I remembered how everyone seemed mad at her, so I just never questioned it.

She did a TED talk about that intense, public scrutiny, and how she eventually learned from it.

That level of continuous strength is so inspiring to me. It definitely reshaped the image I had of her as a child.

Every actor or director who signed a petition to have Roman Polanski forgiven for drugging and violently raping and sodomizing a teenager. Unfortunately there are quite a few of them and they’re all disgusting.

JJ Watt. When the city of Houston was devastated by Hurricane Harvey, he started a fund to help the people affected by it. He hoped to raise $200,000, but instead raised $40,000,000. He made absolutely sure that every cent went directly to relief efforts. There was a celebrity telethon that didn't raise nearly as much. Never really thought about him either way, but after that I have an immense amount of respect for the man.

I’ll never forget watching the oscars and seeing all the people give that standing ovation for Roman Polanski, knowing damn well what he did. Forever disgusted. And Whoopi Goldberg saying it wasn’t “rape rape.” And Quentin Tarantino excusing it because she was a “party girl.” I know he has since apologized for that but it’s hard for me to forget. I don’t know how an apology makes up for a grown man who should know better saying something like that in a public forum. The story is too close to home for me.

Robert Pattinson.

For years, the only thing I knew him as was the sh*ttiest vampire ever in one of the lamest movie series ever. I thought he was bland, flat, and generally just a bad actor.

But then I saw "The Lighthouse" cause Willem Dafoe is one of my favorite actors, and the reviews were great, so I figured he likely carried Pattinson.

However, Pattinson was great! His performance was so surprisingly good it elevated the movie even further for me!

I caught a few interviews of him on YouTube afterwards and found out he at one point went out on a date with a girl who was stalking him and just b**ched about how no one even knew him and just loved the sparkly vampire, and she got so bored she left and stopped stalking him, and that was his plan!

Like, that alone made me feel so bad for writing him off, and though that story is amazing and kind of wrinkle brained as f**k, it is also quite sad, cause I know I wasn't anywhere near the only person to write him off or idolize him for that one s****y role. So now I'm a huge fan, and because of this I no longer judge an actor on a single role, I always reserve judgement of them overall until I see them multiple times (though I won't hesitate to say a specific role wasn't good lol).

It not only changed my view of Pattinson but actors overall.

He also said some not okay (sexual) things about Emma Stone when she was a young actress.

He made the following quote about Elin Nordegren, "No wife is blind enough to miss that much infidelity. Elin had 2 b a willing participant on the ride 4 whatever reason. kids/lifestyle..."

In general, he is really problematic when it comes to women.

He changed my tire! Weirdly ended up being at the same place at the sane time a couple years ago. Had a flat tire, and this guy walks up to ask if I need help. I stand up & turn around to say "Thank you but not necessary, my dad made sure I learned how" and it turned into "Holy c**p are you Corey Taylor?" Sometimes my mouth & brain don't sync lol Very nice guy insisted on being a gentleman since it was dark out and indeed help change my tire.

Will add that March last year when Slipknot was here in Australia headlining Knotfest that he stopped the show mid song and shut the lights down to tell some douche to get off the tower and ensured security could get there safely.

there's only so much bands can see from the stage down to the lights, but there are so many examples of bands stopping a song and telling everyone to back up for the wellbeing of someone at risk down the front. I always respect that a lot, because I know how easily things can go wrong in the crush.

Kanye West's entire public persona. I like (most of) his music, but fame can cause people to lose sight of themselves and I think that's what happened. The *jeen-yuhs* documentary reveals that he used to be a lot more grounded. He was always arrogant, but the fame made him think he's a god, and anyone who says or does something he doesn't like is cut off (see: Kid Cudi beef).
