I….I don't know.

I always try to separate someone's personal life from their professional life. I still listen to R Kelly (on occasion) and I still listen to Lostprophets (lead singer is a pedophile). As for movies, I never pay attention to who directed it. I only know who Woody Allen is because he goes to a lot of Knick games.
But majority of people on this site love MJ and have nothing but good things to say about him, but they absolutely hate people R Kelly.
