Let’s get two things clear off the bat. First, celebrities aren’t saints; they’re humans, riddled with the same flaws we wrestle with day-in-day-out. Second, allegations are just that. ALLEGATIONS. Without proof, they border on character assassination.
Before pointing fingers and composing tributes to fallen heroes, we’ve got to abandon the court of public opinion. This is neither a Roman gladiator ring, nor a medieval witch trial. Allegations need to be followed by investigations – scrutinized by fair trials.
Suddenly, a bevy of accusations springing five, ten, fifteen years after the supposed incident is questionable, to say the least. One could infer that such delayed accusations might be spurred by something other than justice – money, fifteen seconds of fame, maybe revenge? I’m not insinuating the accused is innocent, but neither am I crowning the accuser a victim. Not yet.
Yes, we’re in the #MeToo era, but playing judge, jury, and executioner on X won’t solve a thing. Real justice is served off social media in courtrooms, slogged out in lengthy legal battles, not with 280 characters or less.
Definitely, our society needs to be safer for women. We need to foster an environment where women aren’t preyed upon. By the same token, we shouldn’t breed a culture where men – SLAYLEBRITIES or not – are easy targets for potential defamatory allegations.
Jamie Foxx, like any other human, deserves the presumption of innocence till proven guilty. It’s fundamental. And let’s Be real “women would pay to sleep with Jamie Foxx” that’s the status privilege you get when you arrive at Slaylebrity status.
So instead of prematurely vilifying Foxx, let’s wait for the law to take its course. To claim otherwise without evidence is a mockery of justice. Let’s get real. Every story has two sides, and everyone deserves to have theirs heard. Let the truth come to light, and may justice prevail.
