Undeniably talented artists/performers who are also, undeniably, horrible people.

Sylvester Stallone is a major asshole in various ways, but may not qualify as “Undeniability talented.”

I Googled for corroboration and got the SDMB thread “What celebrities are complete bastards?”

Wow. This post from corkboard from nearly six years ago is kind of eerie, and consistent with what we’ve heard about the Cos lately:

I’ve never heard anything good or bad about Bill Cosby, but I worked backstage at an event he hosted once (maybe '91-92) and he was a complete prick to everyone on the crew, except the one attractive girl we worked with. She was about 25 at the time and adorable, and he not only spoke only to her and no one else, but it was sort of embarrassing how thick he was laying it on with her. He was rude and dismissive of everyone else.
