Magician David Copperfield is facing allegations of drugging women before sexual encounters, groping women during live performances, and behaving inappropriately with women who were significantly younger than him — including under 18 — in a new investigative piece in The Guardian.
The story contains allegations from 16 women, spanning four decades, from the 1980s to 2014. Over half of those women said they were under 18 at the time of the alleged incidents, with the two youngest victims claiming they were 15 at the time (though there was no evidence to suggest Copperfield was aware of their ages when they met).
One of those 15-year-olds, identified as Carla (not her real name), said Copperfield “groomed” her for more than two years after he gave her his phone number following a 1991 show. The magician allegedly called her at home often and sent her cards and gifts, including one, which Carla received when she was 16, that said: “In 2 years I will be back.”
David Cop-a-feel
The joke writes itself
And for my next trick, you’re gonna fall asleep
The thumbnail looked like somebody super aged Andrew Garfield
Or just mildly aged Jesse Waters
Don’t they know this man is literally unjailable?
Allakhazam! You’re pregnant!
I honestly don’t know who that is
Edit: I’m 33 you plebs I never watched this crap because I knew how fake it was.
I’m 33 as well and I know who he is, despite never seeing any of his performance.
But you know, you could open the article where presumably it gives the context. It’s better than a comment that only serves to make you look like an idiot.
Even if you didn’t watch his stuff, his name is such a part of the lexicon that it’s like saying “who the hell is oj?”
This is… An exaggeration
It really isn’t.
OJ Simpson was a famous football player and then was constantly on television news for years because he murdered two people and then ran from police. I wouldn’t even say Copperfield got 2% as much air time and I’m not sure why you’re arguing he did.
No joke before I posted this I went back and double-checked I was right about his name, a mistake I would’ve never made with OJ Simpson.
He was huge in the 80’s and 90’s amd did some big scale acts like disappearing a whole bridge and stuff like that.
He’s a magician, one who used to be famous 😁
He made your memory disappear!
