Pearl Jam-fan Danny Masterson accused of serial rape

A monthslong investigation into multiple allegations of rape against actor Danny Masterson has inexplicably stalled, despite the Los Angeles County district attorney having compelling evidence in the case, multiple sources told HuffPost. Four women have accused Masterson of raping them in the early 2000s.

    Why does it matter that he's a Pearl Jam fan? There are likely countless Pearl Jam fans who do bad things every single day.

    He's a well known and outspoken fan. Why not mention it on the Pearl Jam forums. Where people might know him as a well known and outspoken fan.

    Don't see a reason not to mention it (?)

    Agreed. It reminds me of headlines like: "teacher arrested for hurricane sandy insurance fraud".  What does being a teacher ha e to do with the charge?

    I guess. It just seems weird to me. I'm not saying you shouldn't have mentioned it. There are more and more of these allegations surfacing in the wake of Weinstein and they are all newsworthy. I just don't think these particular allegations are more newsworthy because he's a fan. But, maybe I'm wrong. It wouldn't be the first time.

    I don't care if it's mentioned or not, but just FWIW, I've never once heard that he's a Pearl Jam fan. I was, however, aware that he's a freaking Scientologist. I am always disappointed when I find that out about someone, lol.

    My wife and I just finished watching the series The Handmaid's Tale, it was fantastic. We were both disappointed to find out after that the lead actress, Elisabeth Moss, is a Scientologist. Especially given the subject matter of the show.

    If I started not watching, viewing or listening to art because I found I disagreed with the creator or they had done something terrible....there wouldn't be much left to enjoy.
  • Fuck him if he's guilty. I hope his prison cell is small and dark and be never gets to hear another note of pearl jam again.

    we will find a way, we will find our place

    Hehe. I remembering reading on here like 10 years ago about Masterson owning all the 2000 tour bootlegs. That stuck with me.

    (I also remember reading that Kevin Spacey in some interview had said he loved Pearl Jams' Benaroya Hall)

    Bet they both liked the Nirvana song Rape Me too.  Since they are celebrities they get away with this stuff. Ridiculous.

    Did anyone said that all Pearl Jam fans are saints? PJ fans are probably “in general” great people but there are always some bad apples...

    this is like saying "beatles fan accused of shooting john lennon".

    lennon was shot. that it was a beatles fan makes no difference.

    or "jody foster fan shoots the president". makes no difference.

    Why are you reading more into it than needed? Don't really see this argument of yours?

    This is the Pearl Jam board. Masterson is a known celebrity fan of the band. 

    If you were on the "Jodie Foster official message board". Yeah why not mention that in the thread title?

    You're derailing the thread with this obvious off topic/meta discussion.

    comment instead on how the Scientology-church can be able to influence an investigation in your beautiful country.
