    Everything You DON'T Know About The James Franco Allegations

    VIDEO VERSION: https://youtu.be/c1164gKeuQY James Franco was not only an A list Hollywood star for the last 20 years, but a celebrity that was loved by the general public, behind the scenes however, James Franco’s reputation couldn’t have been more different. Through the 2000’s & the 2010’s, it was truly unbelievable how many projects James Franco was apart of, but unfortunately it wasn’t just acting happening on the sets of James Franco’s productions. From his earliest work in Hollywood on the set of the cult TV show Freaks & Geeks, accusations swirled about James Franco, at one point even exploding & physically lashing out at his co-star Busy Philipps. As JF’s celebrity star rose, James Franco’s behaviour & the stories from his sets became even darker. For years when women would come forward about James Franco’s behaviour & levy allegations against him, there would be enormous coordinations to keep the accusations hidden & out of the media. But in 2018, at the absolute height of his career, everything changed & James Franco’s horrendous unforgivable behaviour was finally exposed. And the spark that began the fire that torched James Franco’s career, was James Franco’s own enormous ego. So that’s what we’ll be discussing today, James Franco & the avalanche of allegations against him from many women & teenage girls. And James Franco’s appalling behaviour wasn’t just reserved to sets, with Franco even having to settle a lawsuit for millions of dollars with his former college students. We’ll also covering the repercussions of James Franco’s behaviour and how it effected his friendship and decade long collaborator, Seth Rogen. Franco & Rogen were a beloved duo, but James Franco’s expulsion from Hollywood has resulted in Rogen allegedly cutting James Franco off personally & professionally, with some people praising Seth Rogen for making and following through with a difficult decision, while others are criticising Seth Rogen for abandoning his & questioning just how much Seth Rogen knew about his former friend.

    JAMES CORDEN VIDEO VERSION: https://youtu.be/61CGZ-LJkqM James Corden is one of the most disliked people in Hollywood, & while some distain for James Corden comes from people believing he is given many roles and opportunities that he doesn’t deserve, the vast majority of people detest James Corden because of his rudeness,  poor behaviour on set, & his  arrogance. Over the years, James Corden has been caught many times being openly rude on camera & there are many infamous stories from the sets of his shows and films that paint a picture of someone who thinks the world revolves around him and who seems to take pleasure in treating other people poorly, especially the cast & crew he works with. Along with his  treatment of cast & crew, James Corden has also been exposed for his rudeness towards fans, the general public & service worker, with an avalanche of terrible stories appearing online year after year about James Corden. And on top of all these stories, what many people might not know is that James Corden has also been caught in hidden camera moments showing how really behaves & what he’s truly like behind the scenes. So that’s what we’ll be discussing today, James Corden’s behaviour behind the scenes, how despite having it all, he choses to act in appalling ways. We’ll also go over James Corden’s career, how he got where he is & why today it seems as though his horrendous behaviour may have truly finally caught up with him.

    Everything You Don't Know About The Cast of Home Improvement (Arrests, Predators, Scams & Disappearances)

    HOME IMPROVEMENT VIDEO VERSION: https://youtu.be/fB3ZGasBXDM Home Improvement was a massive hit for ABC, starring Tim Allen & also one of the 1990’s the arguably biggest tv teen idols, Jonathan Taylor Thomas as Randy Taylor, also known as JTT. While Home Improvement was a half an hour family friendly comedy where everything could be resolved in a 22 min episode, unfortunately behind the scenes, & after the show ended, things were anything but family friendly. The star of Home Improvement, Tim Allen has faced many controversies over the years, ranging from loud legal troubles including multiple arrests & prison time to not so talked about stories from the sets of Tim Allen’s movies and shows where he allegedly made life very difficult for everyone he's worked with. One of the biggest behind the scenes stories from the Home Improvement set was Allen’s treatment of Jonathan Taylor Thomas, when he decided to exit the show. But Tim Allen wasn’t the only adult on Home Improvement reported to treat other cast and crew poorly.  Recently one of the Home Improvement child actors, Zachery Ty Bryan who played Brad Taylor, has faced a string of arrests & legal troubles while also striking it huge with crypto thanks to advise from another former child star Brock Pierce, & Brock Pierce is someone else who post acting life has featured some shocking headlines, including those about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein & the infamous company DEN, which on the surface was a brilliant idea, but some of the people involved were committing the most unforgivable of crimes. While one Home Improvement child stars has been entangled in non stop legal issues, the other two, Jonathan Taylor Thomas & Taran Noah Smith, have vanished from Hollywood, but their exits from the spotlight were also surrounded in controversy. So that’s what we’re talking about today, what happened behind the scenes of one of the most successful shows of 1990’s, the controversies, drama, chaos & what happened to the stars of Home Improvement.
