Derailed by MeToo, comedian Louis C.K. announces comeback tour

The former star of TV comedy "Louie" announced dates on his website starting in mid-August in New York City and running through to December. He will also perform in Ukraine, Germany, Denmark and Romania in early 2022.

The Emmy-winning comedian, 53, has adopted a low profile since November 2017 when he admitted allegations detailed by five women, including masturbating in front of some of them. His TV shows, a comedy special and a movie were dropped as Hollywood distanced itself at the height of the #MeToo movement that calls out inappropriate behavior by powerful men.

C.K. did a handful of small gigs in New York comedy clubs in late 2018 but was met with protests and walk-outs by women. Some other celebrities, including Dave Chapelle and Chris Rock, supported his right to a second chance.Reporting by Jill Serjeant; Editing by David GregorioSubscribe for our daily curated newsletter to receive the latest exclusive Reuters coverage delivered to your inbox.

What the hell ? Way to blame the victims.

Derailed *by his own behavior*. If not for that pesky MeToo movement, he would still be exposing himself to women. Poor thing.

This is the worst headline I've read in a LONG time, and that's saying something. Louis C.K. was not 'derailed by MeToo.' He ruined his own career by being a creep & making women uncomfortable. Then tried a 'comeback,' by insulting kids who watched their friends get murdered.

His last special was so so. I wish him all the best. And if hollywood was smart they would remake The Jerk starring C.K

🍆

Nope.

This caption is false. The true story is that his career was derailed by his own actions and he is the only person responsible for his actions. Millions and millions of women have had their careers derailed by men who act like that -

Lol

I wonder who he'll trap in a room and jerk off at this time

Yes !! 👏

Derailed by unwanted public sexual contact and assault.

That’s good

Fuck that

this is terrible news

*derailed by sexual assault he did

Mike Parson announced Tuesday that he made good on his promise to pardon a couple who gained notoriety for pointing guns at social justice demonstrators as they marched past the couple's home in a luxury St. It's really sad that this doesn't surprise me. 🤮 So defending your property is now racist 🤔? And getting a pardon means you are a white supremacy person ? But looting and burning down businesses is okay ? And if the people defending their property were non white it would have been okay ? I'm trying to understand twitter logic
