[quote=Anonymous]This is a spin-off from the thread re: Jerry Lee Lewis’ death. Background: JLL married his 13 year old cousin in 1950s Mississippi (completely legal at the time FTR). He was however still married to another woman at the time. A poster doesn’t understand why anyone would separate the music from the musician, but I can easily do that. In short: I like the music, and couldn’t care less about the musician—just the music. Similarly, I can recognize that The Cosby Show was a terrific series that made a big impact by showcasing a successful black family on network tv at a time when that wasn’t “a thing.” I can agree that Michael Jackson was a talented child performer whose lifetime catalogue of music was fantastic. Liking art/music/whatever doesn’t mean I like the person or condone whatever awful thing they did. I never put celebrities on pedestals; I don’t idolize celebs. Agree or disagree? Other examples?
