Jesus he’s still alive?!
Somehow, Jesus returned.
My first reaction too.

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 was in Epstein's little black book. Not exactly surprising.
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!
"And now, I'll make these allegations 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.
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.
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
David Cop-a-feel
Damn it was true all along.
Here we go again, oh boy!
Again?
Minors?... No mercy.
OK if no one else will say it.. David Cop-a-feel?
When people of note, long since past their prime,
Find out that the charges, are for serious crime,
The gop wiggles and wriggles and screams,
Because a new friend, has now joined their team!
Finally!
My David cop-a-feel jokes will TAKE OFF
Edit; I am not as creative as I thought
He has a track record of standing up for women’s rights
Yeah, dead giveaway. I hate to say it, but I have never once met or even heard of a man that was staunchly and loudly feminist that wasn't compensating for their abusive sexual proclivities or just trying to gaslight women into sex. To me its a giant red flag. Most good men believe in equal rights and treat people equally, but don't really go out of their way to convince the people around them that they're trustworthy, unless they want you to trust them so they can take advantage of you. Hardcore feminist men are nine times out of ten total fucking creeps, unfortunately.
Hmm, the psychology behind this claim is... Interesting.
Not surprised to see this coming from a conservative honestly
The first name.that came.to my mind for someone like that was Hugo Schwyzer (I'm probably spelling that wrong) - he was very much a very outspoken feminist who made a point of drawing attention to how feminist he was at every opportunity. He was also a women's studies professor.
Honestly, some of his writing gave me the vibe of what it would sound like if you were a recovering addict and chose feminism as the higher power in your 12 step program.
Eventually it comes out that he nearly decided to murder-suicide an ex, and that he was a women's studies professor because it gave him access to an ever rotating stable of young, impressionable women to hook up with.
When he admitted to all that the wording again reminded me of 12 step program talk, like he was taking steps 5-7 publicly online because online feminism was the God he believed in for the program. It...didn't get the response I think he hoped for. Less absolution and more ostracism and banishment.
What makes you think I'm a conservative? I'm probably the farthest thing from a conservative you've ever spoken to on the internet. I must've hit a nerve here, seems like there are a lot of creeps masquerading as feminists hoping to get some puss out of it, can't have people putting their strategy out there.
but don’t really go out of their way to convince the people around them that they’re trustworthy, unless they want you to trust them so they can take advantage of you.
You just described the job of a stage magician.
That's an impressively cynical take, even for the internet. Think I've had enough for tonight, yeesh.
I'll bite. Give me 9 "hardcore feminist men" then.
don't really go out of their way to convince the people around them that they're trustworthy, unless they want you to trust them so they can take advantage of you.
You just described Trump, every televangelist, and anyone in business.
I don't disagree with your assessment.
Standing up for women's rights doesn't necessarily equal creep - that's what men should be doing. But you're not wrong that men who are overly vocal about saying they're a feminist are often creeps. It's kind of like the Nice Guy thing in my experience - if you have to tell me (ad nauseum) how nice you are, I'm definitely suspicious. Men who are actually feminists don't usually feel the need to say it 30 times in their dating profile, they're just out there living it and it'll be obvious to anyone paying attention.
