Cosby was hilarious. Pryor was hilarious. Michael Jackson was super talented. Ray Charles was amazing. Johnny Cash was amazing. They all made horrible life decisions, yet they have influenced most of our lives in a good way. Most of us normal folk can handle the good with the bad. Hell, all of my idles have been shitty people.
Live and let die.

In most cases, yes. In some, no.

As long as the person in question can separate their talent from their own opinions, yes. You can't be a bag of shite and tell me how to live just because you're talented.

I can but I don't idolize entertainers. They are just people and should face the same punishments as everyone else. Same with politicians and their family

Your life has been influenced by Bill Cosby and Michael Jackson?

Happy to say that none of these people have influenced my life.

Easily. Perfection doesn't exist.

There are only a few unforgiveable things, like raping children.

Lebron is a great basketball player. Tiger Woods is a great golfer. Both are pretty shitty people

Apparently I should idle my red wine consumption while discussing entertainment idols. So…..how about that Stapleton Super Bowl Anthem ?

Celeb worship is bizarre. I would take the Neil Peart approach and would loathe anyone who worshipped me.
