I'll bet he's a pervert, disturbed, and "encouraged" plenty of questionable activities. Many in his position do, just part of the dynamics.
That said, I still find it all questionable. He's shot hundred's of celebrities, probably thousands of women, and there are a handful of models (that are not famous, perhaps bitter) that are making accusations...years after the incidents....without any reports filed with the police (none that I have heard about).
That article just posted from NY Magazine is a good read. Unbiased and gives his entire history (I don't like his work, but every time I read a piece of his bio I get more respect for him).
I am just hesitant to jump on Jezebel's self promotion (the amount of times I've seen their "articles" reposted on TR is amazing, the traffic they must be getting...) and condemn someone w/o an ounce of proof. They guys a creep, crazy pervert, but so are many 'artists' (I recall looking through Jeff Koon's book at the Guggenheim...with my folks and sisters....and it being him having anal sex in a billion positions...talk about perverted ego!).
Also, being super famous and making $64 million a year you'd think there would be plenty of "models" offering blow jobs. I know photogs that have sex w/ their models and they make $30k!
[I am not trying to defend him, just not convict based off of a few letters from girls that no one knows who/what they are - they got their 15 minutes and we all know what people will do for that.
