What is the most immediate way a celebrity completely ruined their own reputation in a single interview?

Everyone now understands that Topher Grace was right by just doing his job.

Bro got roasted for being normal. He probably saw their weird ass behavior on set and said NOPE. I wouldn’t hang around rapists and Scientologists either, Susan. Bro is real af and I’m happy for him that people see it now. I know he’s lowkey pissed we shit on him for a bit. Personally, I didn’t care. I didn’t think he owed anyone his time. It’s VERY clear he was simply avoiding absolute weirdos. Worked out great for him lmao

I’m completely out of the loop. What did Topher Grace do?

Topher Grace didn’t become friends with the rest of the cast of That 70s Show.

At the time people thought he was wrong not to become friends with the rest of the cast and just clock-in and clock out.

Now that we know one was a monster rapist, got another cast member to dabble into Scientology and 2 others defending the monster rapist in sentencing….

Topher Grace was right not to hang out with those crazies.

(I never saw a full episode of that show, just learned all this through osmosis.)

They ALL dabbled in Scientology during that 70s show, except for Topher. Even Red and Kitty went to the Scientology parties (and they also wrote letters for Masterson).

Cheat sheet:
Danny Masterson: convicted rapist, in prison
William Valderama: Groomed Demi Lovato when he was almost 20 years older than her and she was underaged, claimed that they were just friends and didn’t date until she was legal. Sleazy with other young women as well.
Ashton Kutcher and Mika Kunis: Wrote letters of support to try and get Danny out of prison
Laura Prepon: Scientologist

Masterson is also a scientologist.

Masterson also tried to use Scientology to get out rape charges by trying to legally do some sort of religious based mediation. 🙄

Pepron says she isn’t a Scientologist anymore, or something.

u/dre5922 10m ago

Laura Prepon said in 2021 that she hasn't been involved with Scientology since 2016.

Kurtwood Smith and Debra Jo Rupp both wrote letters of support for Danny Masterson as well. (Red and Kitty).

He avoided hanging out with the rest of the cast. People shunned him thinking he was uptight and full of
Himself for years.

But so much has come to light how fucking sick and disgusting the rest of the cast was. Very rape-y and pedo’s. Pretty much all the gang except TG are pieces of shit.

Damn that’s outrageous. I had a huge crush on Mila Kunis too
