Louis C.K.

It's a new year.

But it's the same old Louis C.K.

Between Kevin Spacey's bizarre Frank Underwood video and Louis C.K.'s latest standup set, it looks as though Hollywood's most notorious creepsters are ending 2018 the same way they began it:

By causing the whole world to cringe itself into oblivion.

Sorry, Sarah Silverman, but...

... cum again?

Well, folks, it turns out there's more to Norm MacDonald than just live-tweeting play-by-play updates of whatever sporting event he happens to be watching at the moment.

It seems he also has other interests, such as pissing off the entirety of Twitter and torpedoing his own career.

In November of 2017, the #MeToo movement was still in its infancy, and many had yet to fully grasp the severity of the abuses of power that led so many women in Hollywood to band together.

These days, Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby -- both of whom had reputations for predatory behavior long before they were finally held responsible for their actions -- are both facing jail time, while perpetrators of less appalling misconduct are prematurely seeking a path to redemption.

After years of rumors followed the comedian, five women have come forward and accused Louis C.K. of sexual harassment.

Now that these rumors have become outspoken allegations, and now that he's getting slammed by comedians and fans alike, Louis C.K. is making a statement.

Louis C.K has made a living for years as a stand-up comic.

But the allegations made against the star this week by five women are the opposite of funny.

Earlier today, several media outlets reported that a premiere event for Louis C.K.'s controversial new film, I Love You Daddy, had been canceled due to forthcoming allegations against the comic.

Moments ago, The New York Times confirmed the story with a piece detailing accusations against C.K. from five female colleagues.

Last year, comedian Louis C.K. was accused of sexual assault by a young man identified only as "Jason," who claimed to have contacted the comic to request that he stop behaving inappropriately with female comedians.

In May of 2015, comedian Louis C.K. was the subject of some appalling accusations regarding his behavior toward young female comics.
