Thanks for taking pee wee herman. Wouldn't have come up with his real name in time.

Guess this is all before Bill Cosby

Had to add the Cosby scandal, which makes some of these other "scandals" seem pretty trivial.

Then there's OJ who basically decapitated his wife and killed her lover before nonchalantly hopping on a red eye flight to Chicago.

The quiz doesn't accept just "Cosby", you have to type the whole name.

Russell Crowe would also fit the phone clue: https://www.google.com/search?q=russell+crowe+phone+assault&oq=russell+crowe+phone+assault&aqs=chrome..69i57.5743j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8

He actually was on this quiz before the last update. But he only assaulted one person with a phone. Naomi Campbell is a serial offender.

"Scandal - an action or event regarded as morally or legally wrong and causing general public outrage." http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/us/definition/american_english/scandal

Which makes the Brad Pitt one all the more ridiculous (not a criticism of the quiz question but the idiotic public outrage when an adult chooses to end a relationship and start a new one).

Feel like Darren Sharper might also be an answer for the Cosby question. Arrested in 2014 for multiple counts of drugging and sexually assaulting women in several states.

Cosby is quite a bit more famous and NFL players assaulting women is hardly news.

Wow. For the last one, I actually read "sexually abusing a mirror". (The coffee is now brewing.)

Now, I wouldn't know, not having ever been to a porn theater (or having heard of them until now), but masturbating seems like a kind of strange thing for them to get upset about someone doing in there....I'm just saying. I guess public indecency and all, but given the circumstances--really? Oh well.

In Europe that's what everyone was doing in porn theatre .. (not so many of them since internet though)

I think the fact that he played a character for children's TV and movies made it a bit more scandalous than had he been an actor for more adult media

The fact that Cruise jumping on a couch was built up to what it was ranks as one of the stupidest things from the media. To call it a scandal is just ridiculous. Others have listed actual scandals that should rank before this overly-exuberant display.

What's with famous people endangering children

Probably the issue is that normal people also endanger their kids but when they do it there isn't typically a camera rolling or any media that wants to report about for peoples entertainment.

For that last clue, that's one way to say "raped a 13 year old."

Sinead O'Connor was just ahead of her time. If she'd torn up a photo of the pope in 2004, people probably would have yawned.

Tearing up a photo of the pope doesn't make someone ahead of their time if they did it back then.

Someone hating on Bill Cosby in the 1980s wouldn't be considered "ahead of their time".

Some of these "scandals" seem quaint. Sinead O'Connor's "scandal" was that she wanted to hold those in authority accountable. Kanye West's "scandal" was making a political argument that was actually on point - he has since gone off the deep end and things he's said in more recent history would better fit the bill of a scandal. Paul Reubens' "scandal" was not having the internet yet. Miley Cyrus' "scandal" was being a young person and doing a popular dance move.
