    I thought about it, but I also realize that most people know she's been deeply unwell for a while so it's not as harsh of shock in a way
     
  3. Are you sure? I'm seeing peeps and even some nasty media publications suggesting she should go back under a conservatorship for it. I'd say that's a worse response than the "this is going to ruin the world tour" jokes thrown at him

    Maybe it's just my algorithm, but it felt worse for JT at the time.

    I agree. There were some chronically online folks who were outright celebrating his “downfall” and that always felt corny to me. Obviously driving drunk is always bad no matter who it is, but the people who saw him as a villain long before the incident were way too excited.

    I agree, but you just know TMZ was chomping at the bit for the video to come out or for them to get ahold of it in some way. I don’t think it needed to come out.

    not defending his actions. he shouldnt have been behind the wheel.

    but the judge and courts agreed to keep this sealed. he’s prob got a big lawsuit win on his hands lol.

    also why is this coming out two years later?

  11. According to that article, he came to an agreement with the PD to release a redacted version of the video.

    The spiciest meme

    Honestly outside of the obvious "he clearly was driving while drunk which is indefensible" he really didn't do anything notable to have such a hype surrounding the video. And unfortunately I think if he hadn't been as adamant in it not being released and just taken the base embarrassment of having a DWI bodycam, people wouldn't be as rabid for wanting to see it. He sort of made it worse for himself in the end, like yea people getting rabid at all for wanting to see it is a base level of gross but again, he kinda brought more attention on to it than there needed to be.

    That stylist lady or whoever with him was worse, I almost feel like she'd want to be protected from the fallout of that footage more than him lol
