The Truth About What Happened To Aziz Ansari

Following a successful run on Parks and Recreation, Aziz Ansari really hit it big when he created and starred in the hit Netflix series, Master of None. The critically-acclaimed show, which brought the actor-writer numerous accolades, had undeniable parallels with many of Ansari’s interests and experiences. It centered around food and romance for a single comedian in New York, which sounds pretty similar to Ansari’s own life and career.

However, Ansari’s career trajectory -- and his role on Master of None -- came to a halt in January 2018, when a woman accused the star of sexual misconduct. Soon after the report came out, Ansari publicly apologized, but he’s since pretty much disappeared from the spotlight.

What other comedians should we feature next?

[wolfdad]

I'd like to see the evidence before you destroy anyone's career.

Let's all stop calling Aziz a "bad date". She was the bad date.

[CalixLuv]

It bothers me how his career was affected by this. Hope he bounces back

[pergenuine]

You guys did no real research on this. The girl wasn’t pressured, she had a bad sexual experience. She wasn’t mature enough to say I’m just not into you. And had sex with someone she wasn’t attracted to. And showed her immaturity even more claiming he pressured her. Why not show all the people who slammed this immature female for ruining this mans career. It was not a me too situation what so ever.

One thing must be very clear... a bad date and bad sex has nothing to do with any form of sexual misconduct... period!
She consented... they made out. She withdrew consent, he stopped. He even got her a taxi (eventhough he just could have kicked her out).
He should be praised for his responsible behaviour and for the respect he gave that woman. Instead that woman chose to abuse the MeToo movement, abuse the suffering of women to viciously and maliciously attack a champion for women's rights.
He should have sued the woman for every penny for defamation and he shold have sued every publication that made him out to be a sexual predator. And the proponenst of the MeToo mvement should have joined to disown all those who abuse the memory of victims for their own sick purpose.

I don't put aziz in the same category as these other people. He was a bad date. That's all. He shouldn't need a come back because he should never have left. Come back Aziz

Be careful of crazy women, plenty of them around in the city.

I think it is dangerous to normalize her behavior in this shocking ordeal.

[frankmoolah]

Aziz we got your back bro, everybody knows you were setup

[YourDadYoda]

I miss Aziz. He’s one of the celebrities where you can be completely 100% certain he’s a genuinely great guy. I support Aziz. And I can’t wait for more Master of None

I think the worst part is that everyone sees pressure differently. I had a girlfriend that accused me of pressuring her into eating take out..

I asked her "Do you want anything", she said "Nah". I asked again "Are you sure? I'm not sharing".

She said "Fine!" and got some food..

Months later she left me and used this example as one of the times she felt pressured to eat take out when she really didnt want to.

Apparently me not wanting to share my food pressured her into ordering her own food..

[kevinoverholtzer]

an anonymous lady accused him on social media sounds like weak sauce to me.

[Integrity.is.everything]

*You're nobody until somebody accuses you of sexual misconduct*

[adorableonyourvanity]

I don’t think that situation is me too. It’s Iike the girl didn’t feel respected but at the same time chose not to walk away?

[chrisreyes]

Just watched him in San Diego! Aziz was amazing!

[jordonjohnson]

James Franco can do this as many times as he wants, and only gets cast in even more movies
But one bullshit lie about Aziz without any evidence and he is done ....
I hate this world

[Ravathiel]

not a good time for a comeback? literally sold out seats in every gig he went to.
I guess everyone who bought a ticket are just insane.

[christinhilliard]

None of this explained "what" happened.

[gardengirl]

“Pressuring her into intimacy?” Well damn, lets put all men in jail! 🙄
