Bertie

Rather unreasonable of you to have expected Bertie to perform in a different way than his spiritual leader Haughey.

There are a lot of allegations out there about Clinton being a creepy bastard at best and rapist at worst.

Morrissey becoming the far-right extremist that he spent the 90s denying he was.

Never ever in a million years would I expect that.

I remember when he married the model, Lara something, and thinking how completely weird a union it seemed. There's something "off" about him. It could be him hiding his sexuality. Obviously I am speculating here.

Honestly no one. I am cynical.

I had a friend who did teaching in a part of South Africa on a volunteer basis.

His attitude summed it up ' I am not a better person for having done this doing good things doesn't make you a good person but doing bad things does make you a bad one'.

Humans are mostly equally moral.

Oh this shocked me.

That in some studies not sponsored by condom companies there was a 14% breakage rate that wasn't explained by user error.

General Butt Naked.

Though he has totally redeemed himself.

Ryan Adams
Always knew he was a bit of a Kn#bhead.
But never really realised how bad he was.

I can't stop listening to his music though.

That dolphin in Doolin, I thought she'd be the last to attack anyone, I suppose if someone put their finger up my blowhole while swimming in the ocean I'd be very angry and lash out....

Ben Johnson - the euphoria at seeing one of the great human achievements, only for it to be overturned, was a huge let down.

Ah well, it was only sport!

He is most likely bi sexual.

Clearly nothing wrong with that but he has always appeared to me as someone who is concealing his true identity.

As an Arsenal fan - Thierry Henry's handball.

Lance Armstrong and Saville. I like Louis CK but he always struck me as sleazy and I agree about David Williams. I find him really creepy and wouldn't want to be alone with him!

The danger with these kind of posts is that my natural curiosity (or nosiness to be straight about it) is alerted and I want to know who you mean

Graham Dwyer - used to see him in a pub at the corner of Dublin's Bolton Street in his student days. Was a big fan of band Ned's Atomic Dustbin.

And therein lies a theme: celebrities are falliable and human.

In answer to the question, though - Kevin Spacey.

His public character isn't how he is off camera. Saw him at a book signing once. Seemed quiet, gentle and polite and not at all flamboyant and eccentric. I heard of two celebrities who he helped get their career off the ground and he's raised millions for charity. I know after Saville that doesn't mean he's not a pervert but I don't believe he is.

Whose transgressions shocked/disappointed you the most?
