“What’s your proudest moment? Damon: Seeing my daughter swim for the first time. Musically? Still hoping. I was very proud when the wind started during our set [The Good, The Bad & The Queen] at Coachella.”

My takes on the Graham's allegations:

"They were debunked": By who exactly? Did the police do an investigation? Or did you bullied and put social pressure in the victims until they did?

"If they were real they would have gone to the police": Between 85% and 95% women that suffer from rape or sexual abuse don't report to the police because of two main reasons: 1. The fear of not being believed, of being questioned, or of facing long and revictimizing legal processes. 2. Fear of retaliation from the aggressor or social stigmatization. That's exactly what you did: it was difficult for them to speak up and yet you accused them of liying without a second thought.

"They just wanna ruin his career": Just like Chris Brown or Cristiano Ronaldo carreer's were ruined? People defend abusers by saying this, but I don't know any case where a carreer was ruined by an assault acussation, yet I know cases where men found guilt of rape were released because "it would ruin their future". Women DO get their lives ruined when they get raped.

By this logic, they would try to ruin Damon's career. All that's left of Graham career is whatever independent album he wants to make. His fame with blur is over, so he basically doesn't have a career to get ruined in the first place.

You also like to ignore that he beat up his wife. For you who doesn't have an experience with alcoholics, you can never expect what they're gonna do, they're violent, they do pretty dark stuff when they're drunk. I dont have any doubt about this being true.

If they were untrue, I don't think Dave would have blocked people that wrote him about this, right?

Even if these relations were consensual, this is power abuse. It's creepy as fuck that a famous person chats with younger fans in the first place. And even if a barely 20 year old says yes to a famous 40/50 year old, and he takes advantage of It in the first time they meet. IT'S FUCKED UP.

This wasn't a single crazy person. They were various women who spoke up. So after what I have already said, you rather believe a single famous person? If you do, you're not only extremely parasocial, but you're also insensitive towards people that suffer from abuse (that are 1/3 of women btw). Stop thinking that an adult 50+ year old man and ex-alcoholic is an innocent cutie. Be realistic.
