I mean, there are definitely men in the entertainment industry who are sexually assaulted by their superiors, and it's probably even harder for them to speak out because they're straight and it would "ruin their image" if people knew they were victimized by other men.

Yes. Some actor sued Bryan Singer claiming that he and his Hollywood friends used to throw parties where they would invite young up and coming actors and singers and entertainers in order to have sex with them in exchange for better opportunities in the entertainment industry. Taylor Lautner was exposed/outed during the court case, along with some other men in Hollywood. Expose included things like various big-wig directors in attendance, they weren't allowed to wear clothes in certain parts of the house and by the pool area, etc.
Sexual assault against males is also a problem in Hollywood, but you'll never catch anyone in the industry speaking up about it or defending the victims the way Ariana and everyone else are for Kesha. It's sad, really.
