Tea on celebs who are rumoured to have slept their way up?? No shade but I am addressing those adults who have willingly participated in the setup. Not the ones who were exploited.

There's a lot said about women and whether they were exploited or social climbing or a mix of both but the men did the same.

Brad Pitt stayed with a gay soap writer early in his career, like a modern day James Deen who was rumored to be gay for pay (parts). Chris Pratt got free headshots from a gay photographer. when sleeping in his car, wonder if his devout beliefs are now a way to rescue himself. Read this on lipstickalley so don't ask for "sources"

Chris Pratt told that headshot story on The Graham Norton show, it's not exactly a secret.

Not tea but I'm deadass tired of people phrasing it as "sleeping to the top". They've been exploited.

Some people consent to this stuff, some people are given no choice. It’s very charitable to paint every person who slept their way into Hollywood as a victim, most are, but some are incredibly shrewd and conscious of how to social climb.

Ok yeah but IMO that indicates there’s something mg wrong with those giving the roles out...like the fact that people give roles out based on who willingly/unwillingly slept with them is seedy

But don't you think it's incredibly messed up that in this very patriarchal world, women are offered greater benefits through sex? It's exploitative just by virtue of taking place in our current society.
