Why is Woody Allen still praised and revered as a genius despite his numerous rape accusations while R. Kelly lost his career/reputation? It seems like people just ignore Woody's accusations which are just as bad as Kelly's(he molested his own daughter) and condemn R Kelly worse.
I actually agree with OP.. woddy is still consideret movie genious, while R kelly is ignored... tbh Woody should be ignored too, since he is as gross as R Kelly, for the love of God he has married his stepdoughter
Are we really pretending that R Kelly has lost his career and reputation? People cared more about the whole pee thing than they did about the accusations.
The only difference is R Kelly went through a court case where he blatantly lied (getting away with it anyway on a technicality). Many people don't even know or care about that.
Maybe because there is more evidence that shows that R Kelly is a pervert. The marriage to Aaliyah and that sex tape show he's a pervert. With Woody Allen, there are only accusations from what I know. I d't think there is much evidence. Also, like many here have stated, the fact that Woody Allen is white kind of helps him get a pass.

Discuss.
because accusations are nothing without evidence. In both cases.
Why would you discredit their work just because of what they might or might not have done in their private lives, especially if the work is really good?
How? He just had a relatively successful comeback and very few people even brought up the issue. In fact Gaga got more crap for working with him than he did for you know being him.
He has. Most people still respect him for his music though.
Some even dispute the accusations and support him...
It was damaged but not lost and as i said it seems like the whole "he has a piss fetish" thing did more damage than the fact that he was sleeping with underage girls.

It wasn't. Everyone did. That's... the point? Of course you're gonna get scalped for working with bottom feeding scum. You all don't have the DWUW video for a reason and that reason is him.

If thats the case where is the DWUW video & why did we have a remix/performance with Christina... if everything was fine we wouldn't be debating about if he is still respected or not.
