11. Bill Cosby
Once thought of as one of the greatest standup comedians of all time and beloved television father, Bill Cosby was the pinochle of family-friendly fun throughout the ’80s and ’90s. Women sought out to find their Heathcliff Huxtable that would be the perfect husband and father, not knowing all the seedy details that occurred behind closed doors. When the first sexual allegations came forward, many people thought of it as a money-seeking woman trying to defame a beloved celebrity. However, when more and more women started coming forward with the same horrifying details of being drugged and sexually assaulted, it became harder to deny the type of man he truly was. The Cosby Show has since been canceled from reruns on television, and public perception of this “Pudding Pop” celebrity has turned to disgust and disbelief.
