Celebrities Who Suck
So, you might be asking yourself, who am I to place judgement upon other people and their past transgressions? To that, the answer is simple. I'm an enormous s. head myself, by many people's standards, so I think that fully qualifies me to come up with my own assessments. The list is ranked in order of suckage. I'm trying my best not to make this list too political, though in a society as divided as ours, that's going to be hard.

Harvey Weinstein was born on March 19, 1952, in Flushing, Queens, New York City, New York, USA, the first of two boys born to Max and Miriam Weinstein. He is a film producer, known for Pulp Fiction (1994), Shakespeare in Love (1998), and Gangs of New York (2002). He has been married and divorced twice; most recently from Georgina Chapman and previously from Eve Chilton.At first I was going to make Amber Heard the star of this list, if for nothing more than timeliness and social expediency, but no, to do so is to trivialize worse things. The truth is, this forced me to do a double take on gender relations as a whole. Not all abusers are men, but when men choose to be such, they're certainly more prolific, and he called himself a feminist... Hateable. What I personally hate the most about him is the lack of self-awareness, the borderline autistic sense of entitlement, He was a beta through and through who had an alpha position in life, and took advantage of it: zero finesse; zero charm; no tact; he had no idea what he looked like; he had no idea what was. I'm not sure if he deserves to die in prison. In a way he's served as the industry's scapegoat. Either way, his fall from grace was certainly deserved.- Music Artist

Christopher Maurice Brown is an American singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor. According to Billboard, Brown is one of the most successful R&B singers of his generation, having often been referred to by many contemporaries as the "King of R&B". His musical style has been defined as polyhedral, with his R&B being characterized by several influences from other genres, mainly hip hop and pop music. His lyrics develop predominantly over themes of sex, romance, fast life, desire, regret, and emotional conflict. Brown has gained a cult following, and wide comparisons to Michael Jackson for his stage presence.Known for being a woman beater, and I guess some people know him for his music too. What you might not know is he also had an hours long standoff with police which could have easily ended in bloodshed. Just an emotional baby, with a self-absorbed attitude, the type that clearly sucks the life out of those around him. I won't say he doesn't deserve to have a career, but if you would actually choose to give this guy your money, then there's something wrong with you.- Actress

Her other early film credits include: Syrup (2013), Drive Angry (2011) 3D, The Joneses (2009), Never Back Down (2008), Alpha Dog (2006) and Friday Night Lights (2004).

She also starred in the suspense thriller, The Stepfather (2009), with Sela Ward, Dylan Walsh and Penn Badgley. In 2008, she garnered attention for her role in the comedic hit, Pineapple Express (2008), with Seth Rogen and James Franco. Heard received a 2008 Young Hollywood Award for her breakthrough performance in "Pineapple Express".

Heard resides in Los Angeles, where she is actively involved with Amnesty International. In 2015, she married actor Johnny Depp, and the two divorced in 2017.Such a horrible person, not just down to the fact that she very probably completely fabricated an abuse story to ruin a man's life, out of revenge; she lied about donating money to a children's hospital for a public round of applause, and she doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong about that. It's like faking that you have cancer. The fact that she can't even bring herself to spin it in the most obvious way, by saying "I can see how people thought I meant that. I'm sorry that I claimed to donate the money when I hadn't in fact donated it yet." Nothing is EVER her fault, even by marginal degrees, and that's why she lost her court case, the ONLY reason why. Let this forever serve as a case in point to the casual observer, on what true narcissism means. She was just asking people to believe too much without conceding her part in it. This is what happens when you get caught up in a web of lies. Going through life with zero give and take, will be the downfall to anybody.- Actor

Klaus Kinski was born as Klaus Günter Karl Nakszynski in Zoppot, Free City of Danzig (now Sopot, Poland), to Susanne (Lutze), a nurse, and Bruno Nakszynski, a pharmacist. He grew up in Berlin, was drafted into the German army in 1944 and captured by British forces in Holland. After the war he began acting on the stage, quickly gaining a reputation for a ferocious talent and an equally ferocious temper. He started acting in films shortly afterward, showing an utter disregard for the quality of the productions he appeared in and churning out so many that a complete filmography is almost impossible to assemble.
However, he did turn out memorable work for director Werner Herzog, a similarly driven and obsessive character. Herzog and Kinski pushed each other to extremes over a 15-year working relationship, which finally ended after filming Cobra Verde (1987), a production plagued by volcanic clashes between the star and director, involving--among other things--violent physical altercations and mutual death threats. He subsequently directed and starred in the notorious Paganini (1989), his only film as director and which was marked by (again) clashes between Kinski and his producers, who accused him of turning their movie into a pornographic film and sued him in court. His autobiography, "All I Need is Love", a vicious attack on the film industry, was withdrawn for legal reasons and subsequently re-released as "Kinski Uncut" in the US & UK, "Ich brauche Liebe" in Germany, and in various other languages.Raping your own flesh and blood, is arguably antisocial behavior, not to mention the fact that he was horribly abusive to just about everyone who knew him on a less than superficial basis. An almost caricatural real life example of narcissism. I think the guy literally viewed himself as a living God.- Director

Roman Polanski is a Polish film director, producer, writer and actor. Having made films in Poland, Britain, France and the USA, he is considered one of the few truly international filmmakers. Roman Polanski was born in Paris in 1933.
His parents returned to Poland from France in 1936, three years before World War II began. On Germany's invasion in 1939, as a family of mostly Jewish heritage, they were all sent to the Krakow ghetto. His parents were then captured and sent to two different concentration camps: His father to Mauthausen-Gusen in Austria, where he survived the war, and his mother to Auschwitz where she was murdered. Roman witnessed his father's capture and then, at only 7, managed to escape the ghetto and survive the war, at first wandering through the Polish countryside and pretending to be a Roman-Catholic kid visiting his relatives. Although this saved his life, he was severely mistreated suffering nearly fatal beating which left him with a fractured skull.
Local people usually ignored the cinemas where German films were shown, but Polanski seemed little concerned by the propaganda and often went to the movies. As the war progressed, Poland became increasingly war-torn and he lived his life as a tramp, hiding in barns and forests, eating whatever he could steal or find. Still under 12 years old, he encountered some Nazi soldiers who forced him to hold targets while they shot at them. At the war's end in 1945, he reunited with his father who sent him to a technical school, but young Polanski seemed to have already chosen another career. In the 1950s, he took up acting, appearing in Andrzej Wajda's A Generation (1955) before studying at the Lodz Film School. His early shorts such as Two Men and a Wardrobe (1958), Le gros et le maigre (1961) and Mammals (1962), showed his taste for black humor and interest in bizarre human relationships. His feature debut, Knife in the Water (1962), was one of the first Polish post-war films not associated with the war theme. It was also the first movie from Poland to get an Oscar nomination for best foreign film. Though already a major Polish filmmaker, Polanski chose to leave the country and headed to France. While down-and-out in Paris, he befriended young scriptwriter, Gérard Brach, who eventually became his long-time collaborator. The next two films, Repulsion (1965) and Cul-de-sac (1966), made in England and co-written by Brach, won respectively Silver and then Golden Bear awards at the Berlin International Film Festival. In 1968, Polanski went to Hollywood, where he made the psychological thriller, Rosemary's Baby (1968). However, after the brutal murder of his wife, Sharon Tate, by the Manson Family in 1969, the director decided to return to Europe. In 1974, he again made a US release - it was Chinatown (1974).
It seemed the beginning of a promising Hollywood career, but after his conviction for the sodomy of a 13-year old girl, Polanski fled from he USA to avoid prison. After Tess (1979), which was awarded several Oscars and Cesars, his works in 1980s and 1990s became intermittent and rarely approached the caliber of his earlier films. It wasn't until The Pianist (2002) that Polanski came back to full form. For that movie, he won nearly all the most important film awards, including the Oscar for Best Director, Cannes Film Festival's Palme d'Or, the BAFTA and Cesar Award.
He still likes to act in the films of other directors, sometimes with interesting results, as in A Pure Formality (1994).Not just the fact that she was underage... He shoved it up her butt... and he had to drug her to do it. The most loathesome type of predator is one one who's a through and through beta. Ultimately, this is why pedophiles are reviled in prison, above all else. They're not a part of the same world. They live deep among acceptable society, they often have very little direct experience with violence, and quite often, they were only able to commit their crimes by abusing a position of authority, or a class or privilege. They're almost always establishment individuals who don't understand the criminal world. The weak preying on the weak, evokes such a visceral reaction to so many people. Mind you, I'm not saying he shouldn't be allowed to make movies. I'm just saying it's something we should ask him about, every single time he shows his face in public.- Writer

Born in Martinez, California, 20 miles outside San Francisco, Victor Salva had written and directed over 20 short and feature-length films before graduating from high school. In the mid-'80s his 37-minute short Something in the Basement (1986) took first place in the fiction category at the Sony/AFI Home Video Competition. A horror allegory about a young boy awaiting his brother's return from a bloody war, this highly acclaimed short went on to win several national awards (including a Bronze Plaque at the Chicago International Film festival) and brought Salva to the attention of Francis Ford Coppola. Coppola then produced Salva's first theatrical feature, Clownhouse (1989), which Salva again wrote and directed. Using the talented cast of his award-winning short, Salva called the film "a campfire story." However, his early career was derailed by the revelations of sexual misconduct with one of the film's underage stars. He was tried, convicted and spent a year in state prison. He described it as "a dark time in my confused young life, but also a time when I took responsibility for my own arrested development and the ramifications of growing up in a deeply dysfunctional family."
His next film brought him to Los Angeles. Based on characters he met in prison, The Nature of the Beast (1995), which Salva wrote and directed, starred Lance Henriksen and Eric Roberts and quickly became New Line Cinema's biggest direct-to-video title of that year. Salva next made his first big-studio picture, Powder (1995), a strange tale about an albino boy with special powers that ironically make him an outcast. "Powder" received much critical acclaim and made several top-ten lists for the year.
He next made Rites of Passage (1999), a coming-of-age thriller starring Jason Behr (Roswell (1999)), Dean Stockwell and James Remar which dealt with a homophobic father who unwittingly pushes his gay son into the arms of a psychotic killer. In 2001 Salva wrote and directed Jeepers Creepers (2001), which was one of the year's breakout hits and set a world record for largest Labor Day box-office in history, up until that time. Salva followed this up with his sixth feature film, Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003), breaking his old record and setting another Labor Day milestone, as of 2003. His next film, Peaceful Warrior (2006), an adaptation of Dan Millman's best-seller "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior", was very significant to him because of the year he spent in prison. The film starred Nick Nolte and Amy Smart.What's with people in the film industry who love to put up children's butts? Of all the sexual abusers, Victor Salva is one of the worst. On the set of his very first film, he raped the star kid of the movie. That being said, and this is something people have to never ever forget when judging and condemning people like this. He did the crime, and this case, he also did the time. He was prosecuted and convicted, and then he went back to making movies after being released. You can say the sentencing was too lenient; you can push for reforms in the legal system, but you can't ever forget the fact that every free man in a free society has the right to earn an income. He was making movies all the way up until 2017, but with the changing political climate, he may never do so again. When you stifle or destroy art in this way, you're destroying something so big, that it can't even be conceptualized. You're stealing from the core essence of our humanity itself, the good mixed in with the bad. We have to be able to look at the works of people like Victor Salva, so we can observe them for what they are, and understand where they come from.
