Not To Be Upstaged By Mariah Carey, Rev. Jesse Jackson, David Blaine And Charlie Sheen Were ALSO All Accused Of Sexual Harassment Today
So many sexual assault allegations have come out in the past three hours that I figure the best way to tackle this in a blog is to list them out. That way I can add to it when other people come forward. Which they will. Francis is taking care of Mariah Carey so I’ll start with David Blaine. Two women have accused him thus far. The details of their stories are disgusting. The first is former model Natasha Prince who accused Blane of raping her in 2004 during a house party.
Source - Once in the apartment, Prince said she didn’t really talk to anyone else at the gathering as they were all in the midst of conversations. After some time she said Blaine disappeared into the kitchen and came back with a vodka soda. Roughly 20 minutes later he led her into an adjacent bedroom, told her to kiss him, and then told her to finish her drink, she claimed.
After that she says she doesn’t remember anything going forward, except for one moment during intercourse when she said things got so rough she was woken up.
‘At some point, I was on the bed, face-forward, and he was behind me. I think it woke me up a little bit, because I’d never had that [anal sex] done to me before,’ she said.
The next morning she had to wake up and do a shoot for New Look, a British clothing store, but said the whole day was blurry and confusing.
‘The next thing I remember, I was sitting in a makeup chair getting my makeup oone, and thinking ‘What did I do last night? Did I have sex with David Blaine? But I didn’t want to…’ she claimed.
The second was interviewing him in a Japanese restaurant in the Village when they decided to go to a nearby apartment due to the noise. When she got back to the living room he was allegedly beating-off with his pants around his ankles. Psycho stuff.
Source - ‘I think the first thing I said was, ‘You need to put that away right now’ and he asked something along the lines of, ‘Maybe you could give me a hand’ or ‘Don’t you want to give me a hand?’ To which I replied, ‘The guy in the next room thinks of me as family, and he’s packing. Are you insane?’ And the next thing out of his mouth was some version of ‘Just suck my d*** for a few seconds.
She also had to pay for his cab home. Yuck. I always thought of magicians like carnies. Not only do they have small hands and smell like cabbage, they’re big time creeps. Onto the Reverend Jesse Jackson!
My default impression of the ultra-religious is they are perverts. I know it’s wrong, but there’s just something about their level of sexual suppression that gives off a pervy vibe. I was allegedly spot on for Jesse Jackson.
Source - Danielle Young, writing for The Root, says that while she was working for a media company, Jackson delivered the keynote speech at the end of a meeting. After discussing the responsibilities of black journalists in his speech, according to Young, she and her colleagues lined up to have their picture taken with Jackson.
“I walked toward Jackson, smiling, and he smiled back at me,” Young wrote. As I walked within arm’s reach of him, Jackson reached out a hand and grabbed my thigh, saying, ‘I like all of that right there!’ and gave my thigh a tight squeeze.”
“‘I remember him being inappropriate with all the women,'” Young said her former co-worker said. “‘And I also remember you telling me that he did something more with you. And then we brushed the s–t off and chalked it up to him just being a dirty old man.'”
Dirty old man, allegedly yes. Scum bag, also allegedly yes. It’s like something straight out Mad Men. Only difference is Don Draper wouldn’t have been as brazen. My suggestion for Jesse is to pray for forgiveness.
Onto the next one- Charlie Sheen. Of all the stories, this one may be the most fucked up. He’s accused of raping a thirteen-year-old Corey Haim on set of the 1986 film Lucas.
Source - Former actor Dominick Brascia claims Haim disclosed to him what happened between he and Sheen. ‘Haim told me he had sex with Sheen when they filmed ‘Lucas,’ Brascia told the Enquirer. ‘He told me they smoked pot and had sex. He said they had anal sex. Haim said after it happened Sheen became very cold and rejected him. When Corey wanted to fool around again, Charlie was not interested.’
And on and on we go. Turns out one of the guys who Corey Feldman was trying to get ten-million dollars to out was Charlie Sheen. Unfortunately, Corey’s dead and that was over thirty years ago so I don’t think anything will happen but at least it’s out in the open.
The craziest part about all these stories is that they came out TODAY. I feel like Hollywood should undergo mandatory sexual harassment training. Not in a funny way like in The Office. In a serious way because people are getting raped all the time. It sucks that these are the stories dominating the internet but that’s where we are. I think I’m going to retire my sexual harassment coverage after this blog unless someone really big comes forward. It’s too much to keep up with. Take it away Michael.
