Magician David Copperfield is facing serious allegations of sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior from 16 women, as revealed in an investigation by the
Jesus he’s still alive?!
Somehow, Jesus returned.
My first reaction too.
His career is dead, which is basically the same for celebrities.
Career dead? No way. That dude’s Vegas act is still running. He’s working full time, almost every day, last I heard.
He’s also got a supermodel wife, but also pulls this shit? What a fucking moron.
Apparently this shit happened in the 80s and early 90s and the accusations are coming out now
I think he’s always been kinda like this. The magician community has known for many years.

Wonder if he can make this disappear too.
Ok, you got a pig snort outta me on that one!
More like David Cop-a-feel?
It’s an illusion, Gob. A trick is something a whore does for money.
I don’t care for Gob.
Or cocaine!
I have a feeling Copperfield is no stranger to making cocaine disappear.

He’s David Fucking Copperfield, nobody at all is surprised, his entire being just oozes creep energy and entitled douchiness.
Ta-dah!
Hm, his statement in response to the Guardian is very unusual for someone accused of sexual misconduct. Either he feels very safe that he can hide this, or he really didnt do it and somehow is the target of a campaign.
Edit: The Guardian article literally has names and photos of the women who accuse him. That’s enough to convince me that they indeed were violated by him.
It would be really odd for there to be some shadowy targeted campaign against him considering he’s mostly irrelevant as a celebrity these days. Why would anyone go through the trouble and what could possibly be gained? He’s probably got some money but he’s not Oprah rich.
“Got some money”? He owns a bunch of islands in the Bahamas, with prices for 1 week stay starting at over $1M (probably much more these days since I’ve red about it a decade ago). That’s where people who are recognised everywhere in the world are going for their holidays, weddings, whatever.
I am curious – why does the article including the names and photos of his accusers make this more credible to you?
Because for one, it means the Guardian actually spoke to multiple people and didnt just hear something via three other people. And it means those people are actually willing to have their names and faces known publically. Making false allegations under your real name would be quite stupid.
Just wait he could exonerate himself by exposing that the crimes were actually perpetrated by a secret identical twin brother or by opening up a warehouse full of dead clones and claiming that one of them did it.
For my next trick, I’ll make this pickle disappear!
This isn’t the first time Copperfield has faced allegations of sexual impropriety. Back in 2018, he vehemently denied similar accusations, stating on Twitter that he has endured years of false news stories about fabricated acts and emphasized his innocence.
Sigh… I dunno, man.
endured years of false news
Why would there be so many false stories about one celeb and not others? It’s not proof and he should get a fair trial. It’s just odd that the same story would be falsely accused so many times. It certainly doesn’t look good.
I don’t know about this instance, but in the general, it could be that the person is a complete fucking douche, and people are trying to stick it to them however they can. That might mean lying, blowing things out of proportion, or just slightly twisting the truth.
And once sharks smell blood, they swarm. One allegation will lead to another.
Again, I don’t know the situation here and refuse to pick a side. Guilt is for the courts to decide. But there’s plenty of people who will lie, cheat, and steal for money or fame.
The cynic in me is like, what if these lawyers are strategizing like that? They know that if many people make the same claim it builds a stronger case.
But the logical part of my brain says HMMM…, how plausible is that, really.
“And now, I’ll make these allegations disappear!”
I legitimately thought David Copperfield was dead. Didn’t he die during an escape stunt?
Or was that someone else?
I remember him dying in a South Afrikan prison in the 1980s
Eaten by a family of domesticated bears, while distracted by a Fruit of the Loom logo.
Maybe you’re thinking of David Blaine who almost died from his stunts multiple times?
David Blaine who almost died…
Yaaaaa I seriously doubt that, his PR team worked overtime to promote that nonsense
You’re probably right and I don’t really keep up to date with magicians but I believe he literally took a bullet to his throat when his bullet catching trick failed. I’d say that’s pretty close to dying.

I’m going to adopt that as head-canon and spread it as facts.
He was making the sausage dissapear…
in before he comes out as a conservative and goes on a grifting world tour
in before the right wing loons nominate him for president
Here we go again, oh boy!
David Cop-a-feel
Damn it was true all along.
