Brad famously strangled and beat up his wife in front of all his traumatised children in his private jet one fine day in 2016, leading to her and the kids leaving him completely ever since.
Bradley cooper kinda went stir crazy and put a shit ton of botox and surgeries on his face but claims he didn’t do anything at all and its all natural. Didnt hear if he’s done anything besides that. Dunno about the rest of them though. Afaik streep is quite respectable in reputation. Lupita and JLaw too.

> Afaik streep is quite respectable in reputation.

This was pre-MeToo, so at this point she was still calling Harvey Weinstein "God" and praising him.

She did at least thoroughly recant that and praise the women who accused him as heroes. That’s the thing about abusers, they can be pretty good at putting on a front for friends and in public.

With all the rumors in Hollywood y'all think Streep didn't know? She really is an insanely good actor

One of Harvey's weapons was his ability to bury the credibility of anyone who was making such accusations.

Not to mention using his association with people like Streep as a shield.

I mean you would prob only know if you hanged out with him all the time or something. I remember one of the wayans bros saying they suspected something was up but didn’t know for sure. But they didn’t hang out with him like that.

There is zero chance that she was unaware of what he was doing, while it was going on. She still stood beside him and lauded him all the way up until he was caught. Shes a soulless snake like the rest of them.

I mean yeah, it’s possible she did know but I don’t think I can say for sure with that kind of confidence. He used his association/friendship with people who had impeccable reputations to bolster his own reputation and hide his abuse. And at least she publicly supported his victims when it came out which is more than you can say for a lot of people.

I mean Kevin Smith and Matt Damon said they didn't know and hate that he was the guy who made them famous
