"In 2017, CK admitted that multiple sexual misconduct allegations against him were true. The allegations came at the height of the MeToo and TimesUp movements where numerous prominent men, mostly from Hollywood, were called out for sexual misconduct. CK admitted that allegations he had masturbated in front of women, many of the women working below him, without consent. The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly, CK admitted at the time."
"CK said he felt an odd sense of freedom when the allegations came out and he needed to cop to his behavior. The comedian said: You're trying to piece together that broken mirror and cutting your fingers, that's beautiful. It's true, and when life fucks it up for you, when it gets torn up, it's a relief. That's why I felt free, you know?"
