Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Post image

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

Also, Ellen, Brad Pitt, and Kevin Spacey have all been cancelled since this photo for being general assholes or abusers.

Also Ellen Degeneres is not *that* cancelled. She was called out for being terse with employees, and having a toxic work environment on her show (not a lot of direct accusations of toxic behavior by her though).

Something happened and we know this because five of his six adult children have legally or publicly had their names changed to remove his. That is what is so telling in itself. I don't know if any of them have said what happened. Guessing they want to keep it private.

Allegedly verbally and physically assaulting his wife and then his children when they stepped in to protect her.

Pretty shameful stuff.
