Coulda been a bitch like Drake and hid it.

[-] billwashere@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

That’s very true

That’s like some kid in the 90s discovering their dad was Dean Martin or someone. If any of their peers know who Dave Grohl is they’d just know that that’s some old rocker their parents liked.

foo fighters, the classic rock band?

[-] moon@lemmy.ml 12 points 5 months ago

The '90s was 30 years ago. In the '90s the '60s were 30 years ago, so I think the analogy holds up

[-] Snailpope@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

How dare you make me feel my age!

[-] billwashere@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

As a gen-x’er… fuck off 🤣

He cheated on his wife and had a kid

[-] cheddar@programming.dev 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I suppose it's in time like these his wife has to learn to live, give, give, and love again.

[-] obinice@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Gasp

This would be big news if he were King! Imagine the court intrigue and machinations that would follow!

[-] hesusingthespiritbomb@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

You know it's kinda weird that nobody gave a shit when Arnold did this. I guess because Arnold didn't make a brand around being wholesome, except when it comes to the gym?

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 8 points 5 months ago

Nobody gave a shit? It was huge news. The gossip rags milked it for months

[-] hesusingthespiritbomb@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

The gossip rags will milk a wooden cow for months though. Dude didn't get cancelled or anything.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

Has anyone been cancelled for cheating? Dave grohl sure hasn't, the worst repurcuasions I've seen for him so far are a bunch of memes and presumably a very angry wife

[-] TopRamenBinLaden@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

I would argue that Arnold kind of has a brand around being wholesome nowadays.

I think it's more the fact that all male celebrities got away with this kind of behavior and worse in the past, but more recently people have started to look back on it with a critical lens. The nature of social media amplifies that critical lens.

[-] hesusingthespiritbomb@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

A few years ago I would agree with you, but honestly I think female celebs also get away with this stuff, they just didn't feel as empowered before.

Like nobody outside extremely niche Twitter spaces cared when Taylor Swift dated a 17 year old or when the owner of the Seahawks sexually harassed her bodyguards.

[-] EnderMB@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Dave Grohl got a lot of shit for playing a private show for Amazon leadership after they had laid off thousands of employees earlier this year.

Now, I guess it kinda makes sense why. It's not just that he's morally bankrupt, but he probably needed some extra cash to fund the incoming divorce and raising a new child.

With all that said, I kinda feel for the child. It's gonna suck to have this scrutiny on your shoulders, and to have weird parts of the Grohl cult of personality hate you for existing. Would it actually be that good having him as your dad when his other kids apparently want nothing to do with him now?

[-] frigidaphelion@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

As far as finding out bad things about celebrities in the news goes, this barely even rates. Infidelity is nothing compared to the bar that has been set.

[-] zante@lemmy.wtf 0 points 5 months ago

The only meme that matters this morning.
