I have seen something on Twitter in regards to a woman (apparently his sister) mentioning that he molested her. I have no idea if it is true or not, or if the Tweets are real, or if it is even his sister. These were apparently from years ago before he became as known as he is today.

I won't like though it's the first thing that popped into my mind when I heard the news.



I thought he was gay? I don’t know if I’ve heard of gay men sexually molesting little girls before. Not saying it’s never happened, just that it seems kind of rare and unexpected.


Molestation is about power and opportunity, the gender of the victim is often inconsequential. You'll find plenty of straight pedophiles who abused victims of either gender, and the same with gay offenders.


Good info, thanks for correcting my misconception.


No problem, it's a common misconception. Annie also touched upon that contradiction, essentially saying something to him akin to "you're welcome for my help in figuring your sexuality out".
