i have not seen a woody allen movie ever since he started a sexual relationship with his daughter. I just couldnt. but i havent discussed this before now, it was just a personal reaction.

for me, if i have a negative encounter with a musician or artist, their product becomes tainted and not as enjoyable.

i think it is easy sometimes to put great performers on a pedestal, and expect them to be fantastic people. sometimes, if you enjoy the music, its just better not to know.

when someone with a particular political profile does or says something that seems to betray the previous persona, people can get outraged. but i think we like to package people as a commodity - someone who safely reinforces what we want to hear. people are flexible and change, and have different views over different issues. we don't own them. but we can choose whether to listen to or watch their product.
