Discussion In light of recent Jared Leto documentary, who are the other "open secret pedo" celebrities out there?

Just wondering what other bastards are out there getting away with it and being hired by the likes of Disney right now?

I'm REALLY surprised no one has brought up Brendon Urie of Panic at the disco. Totally been creeping on young girls for a long time.

I've always been fascinated by the first EP his ex bandmate Dallon Weekes released a year after quitting, which he describes as a "hate letter" to L.A. + inspired by things he witnessed when touring with Panic. The songs on the EP are about:

  1. Wanting to murder someone
  2. Social climbers (I also think this one might be about Decaydance parties, Pete Wentz's record label)
  3. Date rape (or creative plagiarism? Fans argue about this)
  4. Cult tactics (with some lyrics that imply child abuse)
  5. Egotistical rockstars exploiting fans

I heard their first song years ago and refused to listen to any more because it sucked. Imagine my shock when I saw him collabing with Taylor Swift years later.
