Dont trust anyone with a private island!
Except Johnny Depp.
Epstein had an island and these two were buds.
Does that include Leonardo DeCaprio?
Was it his island or one he disappeared
🏝 Except Richard Branson.
That's one way to end the gay rumors.
LOL... bro..
😂😂😂😂😂
Still a weido with No magic.😂😵💫🤡🤠
u would think he would use his magic to turn himself straight
😂😂😂 and them itches wonder why they buying their own bottles and food nowadays
David Cop-a-feel . The real magician is whoever made his hairpiece.
I remember when we use to say that in kindergarten. 😂😂 but that’s funny af
Ahh you beat me to it 😩
Omg that is halarious.
Lol that’s what we used to say like 15 years ago too😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'd be scared to say anything against him, too. He can make people disappear.
😂😂 girl stop.
@@p.a.marlow9348 lol I couldn't help myself! 😅
😂😂😂😂😂
@@AllIDoIsNguyenTX i mean, whole buildings right? lots of people inside on of those..... shrug lmao.
🤣
He always came off as a creep.
Yes a creepy magician..never find him.attractive or anything imo he was just creepy .
How about stop saying “grooming” and say what it really is
🤣
Maybe they needed a labial shave.
It's a "woke" word!
He was always a creep 🤮
Am I the only one that doesn't own an ISLAND!?
Um...yeah...you are....sorry...
Lol lol matw, imagine saying "oh u should come to my island on the weekebd,yeah i own a private island,it's great ... youd have to feel like a bloody wanker hey?
I find that professional magicians tend to be odd. Once when I was a kid, I mentioned to my mom that I might want a magicians kit as a birthday gift. She shut that sh*t down right then and there, and now I understand.
No charges? I can tell you why. It's called money! Always thought there was something not quite right about him.
No, he made the charges disappear
Beware of millionaires with private islands.
2024 the year of exposing idols
Its NOT just women.
It’s very easy to imagine this guy being an absolute creep. He does not conjure pleasant vibes.
Conjure!!! Baha
"Underage accusors" - also known as child victims?
I was at his show in Vegas and he ABSOLUTELY 1000% was a creep to the group of women I was with... My one friend was so uncomfortable with his constant eye contact that she literally left once he called her to the stage. Not shocking at all.. He gave off the weirdest vibes
why would her Grandmother agree to let a young girl go off with a much older man?
I assume you've never heard of Neverland Ranch.
In Grandma's day, it was normal to be married at 15 to someone who was 25. My grandmother was 14 when she was married, maybe 13. She doesn't remember. Her first husband was almost 30! This was normal in 1930s Kentucky.
What's up with these rich creeps having private islands?
He saw what his friend Jeffrey Epstein was getting away with and Copperfield said, "me too!"
Criminal jurisdiction is different and no police so they have much more control and are less likely to be charged and convicted of crimes. Women going to an island like that should really understand what these men are actually interested in.
Well if I had money I would buy and island🤷♀️
@@QueenofKings-mh7zn me too.
Nothing new! It's been going on for a loooooooong time.
Even in ancient Roman history!
He will make the charges disappear. Don't go to his private island either, he will make your underwear disappear also.
Yup saw him in a LIVE show once and he made woman’s underwear literally disappear even though she had pants on.
😂😂😂
If he is actually a magician, he should be able to make all these complaints go away like his sexual abuses never even happened..
He's an illusionist, not a Jedi. 😂
Doesn't surprise me everybody in Hollywood is going down
They'll start turning on each other soon.
Hollywierdos ... Why do think they support this administration........ Where's all the children of the unaccounted illegals .....!!!!!!
Half the men in show business and the music industry are predators like this. Is anyone surprised?
It's not just the entertainment industry. They just get press because they are famous. For every David Copperfield, there's a Midwestern CEO or car sales baron who has done this same thing to female employees, customers or dates because they could.
He's been doing this since last century. My son's friend is a model who
was 'approached' by him. He's a predator.
That’s why he was ALWAYS asking me to see his magic 🪄 wand and call him “Cop-a-feel” instead of Copperfield. 😂
I swear this was a Law and Order SVU episode 😬
Another private island?
He was friends with J Epstein
Wow look at all the “disappear” jokes in the comments. Everyone is so funny and creative
They’re so lame lol. All jokes as if this isn’t a serious issue
Demonic Copperfield
True!
What Island Is He Talking About
something creepy has been going on!! There having been whispers, rumours and accusations for years about him. Hope they uncover the truth. & let the cat (or rabbit) out of the bag finally.
How come no one else is talking about this? How did they bury this?
oh, if i got a penny every and each time this comes out. lol
He’s going to wish he had Houdinis skills soon
He performed his show on our college campus in Fall 1986. In the late evening he arrived in front of our local Irish Pub with a limousine and his entourage. He only stayed at the bar for a short time because the mostly student bar crowd was not in awe of his showman style entrance and stance. Was he looking for young lady students? Not cool.
And here I was thinking he liked the Pork Sword
Like the old saying goes - Never trust a dentist with blood in his hair.
I’m so tired of journalists sayin “sexual misconduct”. What in the f does that even mean? Drugged and raping teenagers isn’t “misconduct”. Misconduct is cheating on your spouse.
More like David Copped-A-Feel
What about the story of an encounter with DC’s muscle suit he wears under his clothes during performances? 😂😂😂😂😂
We know what went on in the 80's. Drugs sex and Atlantic city/Las Vegas shenanigans.
We are well aware, times are changing.
Love to Jesse on here❤
Time for a disappearing act?
POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY.
Now you see me, now you don't.
No one knows what “grooming” is. It’s like when leftists call Trump a “fascist.” Quoting the Inigo Montoya from The Princess Bride, “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means”
Grooming, to them, includes any action where you are actively trying to date a woman. The other stuff is a big deal, if he really did all that.
Exactly
Trump is an alien
We know what the word 'Fascist' mean, and you pretending like you don't means you don't care.
Yup, they should just stick with narcissistic, grifting, draft dodger.
Some time in the 90s
I met a young woman in a Atlantic City Casino 🎰 Hotel and she had told me she had a encounter with
David Copperfield Didn't give me details but
She only Said he's was a CREEPER !!!
I mean look at the guy, he's so creepy looking. I don't know why MGM keeps his show going when it absolutely sucks and the reviews a awful.
Gross.
He’s a creep!!!!!
I had no idea. He has been out of the limelight forever. The last time I heard he was with a woman was when he was with Claudia Schiffer
Careful, when this magician pulls out a handkerchief, it's drenched in chloroform.
Thank you both for your reporting of both Guardian and K... articles. Love it when a sex pest is outed. They are the worst of us. If they can do these crimes, what else are they capable of?
He tried to date adult women. OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He gives me the creeps. I think the accusations are valid.
Here we go again. Why are these so called people outed these people now
I don't know if it happened or not. But people waiting decades to accuse somebody of something. Something similar just recently happened to Steven Tyler.
It's the imbalance of power. Victims not only feel shame, they also feel powerless against someone with such wealth and fame. Weinstein, Trump, etc.
Often it takes one person brave enough to step forward, for the rest to feel like they'll be believed. My only issue is, by remaining quiet, it allows them to victimize more people.
True, many accusations are made for either revenge or as a cash-grab, but these things do happen. I don't know if Copperfield is guilty, but that's a lot of accusations.
He was on evil island he's disgusting
Diddy Drake and David Wonder 🤔 who's next
Vince mchamon, Dj akademiks etc
If there hasn't been a conviction let alone a lawsuit as far as I'm concerned that means nothing happened.
Cool story bro
He is of juice nation. Copperfield isn't his real name.
"Wanna watch this disappear in you?"
"David Cop-a-feel" - George Bush, Sr.
There was a period of time where he was devilishly handsome. No pun intended.
Not surprised at all
The old Cosby trick …oldest trick in the book
Danny matherson
Criss Angel, Mind Freak. And apparently David Copperfield, Body Freak.
The guy has so much money and yet NOBODY tried to sue him for a big payday?
So true!
Me too ran it’s course.
He can the accusations DISSAPPEAR
I worked with this girl years ago and she said he did something to her not as serious but I don’t remember what it was but it wasn’t kosher.
I was a magician's assistant. For some reason, i haven't ever been a fan of DC. Probably because i got tired of his corny illusions. He "makes huge objects magically disappear". What i found disappointing, is that he takes too long, and you can still see every step of the trick. It's aggravating for me. Not entertaining. I also thought that some of the shows seemed like he's into bondage, sadism, and extreme kink.
Everybody's Got the Fire down below
Can he perform magic to get his arse out of hot water?
I’m sure he’ll make this disappear.
I worked with a woman he slept with. She said he disappeared
I'm sure David Copperfield would love to make this story disappear right about now. 👀🤔
Also with the mossad? Or just Jeff?
Law and Order SVU will probably based an episode off of David Copperfield in the next season 26 I think.
I really thought he was gay.
This proves that he's not a real magician. If he was, he would make all these accusations DISAPPEAR!
Back in the 1990s, I arrived in Las Vegas at 2 in the morning and was checking into the MGM Grand. David Copperfield was in the lobby with two very young-looking women - teenagers likely - that were dressed up in mini dresses and heels. Someone had been filming this, and Copperfield's bodyguards had taken the tape and were destroying it.
He was friends with J Epstein
Dam!
I bet david copperfield can't make this disappear
Ottfried Fischer ...
come on Dave....We know...we all know....spill it babe!
Ooooooo it's magic 🧝♂️
It’s call the disappearing nightstick. He’s a magician
I always thought he was creepy. Lock the monster up!! Just like Cosby!
Careful, he can LITERALLY make you disappear.
Zzzzzzzz
I saw him live and he has a creepy vibe
David C went on Oprah to sanitize his reputation
You can't groom an adult this is ridiculous
Do you think that when you turn 18 you are suddenly ungroomable?
All these scholars in the comments who have never read a single book on abuse thinking they know what grooming is 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Yeah hindsight is 2020. Yeah you all knew. Please
I had a similar experience back in the 60s
This skinny dopey looking guy tried to convince me to go with him to his island. Think his name was Gilligan
Yes, he's been rumored to be Gay for Decades
David Copperfield a mix between Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein.
these people have so much of money and everything else any girl they want and yet still R*pe WHY??
Mr Copperfield, show us the magic Gerbil.🧛♂️🦫🦫
jeez I always thought he was gay when i was a kid.
Hiding the rabbit?
He had a trick where he asked the victims if they wanted to play hide and seek the pee pee
He is a billionaire and he walks on the dark side. Magic arts are not of God.
