What I’m suggesting is a plan that could transform the entertainment industry as we know it and perhaps even dismantle some of its worst practices. There are legal protections in place to ensure animals are treated ethically on film sets; I believe similar protections should be established for human actors, especially young and vulnerable ones.

Corey Feldman, a former child star and advocate for young actors, has spent years speaking out about alleged misconduct within Hollywood. Feldman has highlighted the disturbing experiences he and other young actors endured, and he points to powerful figures he claims continue to exploit young talent. One name often mentioned in these discussions is that of music mogul P. Diddy.

Recently, allegations against Diddy have intensified, with Feldman hinting at his involvement in an elite network of influential Hollywood figures who wield power and wealth, allegedly at the expense of others.

Feldman describes how young actors are often unprepared for the dark realities they encounter in Hollywood. “The number one problem in Hollywood has always been, and always will be, pedophilia,” Feldman says. He explains that such exploitation was widespread, yet rarely spoken about. As a prominent actor in the 1980s with roles in films like The GooniesStand by Me, and The Lost Boys, Feldman became famous, but his struggles with the darker side of Hollywood were rarely known until he began speaking out.

Feldman has publicly claimed that a group of influential Hollywood figures has engaged in systemic exploitation, particularly of young actors, and has worked to cover up their actions to protect their reputations. “Some of the richest, most powerful people in this business are involved, and they do not want me saying what I’m saying right now,” Feldman asserts.

Feldman has also commented on recent allegations against Diddy, who faces serious charges, including trafficking, kidnapping, and racketeering. Feldman expressed relief that the charges are finally being brought forward, calling the allegations “disgusting” and reinforcing his stance that more must be done to protect young actors.

These accusations led to Diddy’s detention in September 2024, and his trial is scheduled for May 2025. If found guilty, he could face a long prison sentence. Diddy, who has pled not guilty, was denied bail, despite his lawyers offering his $48 million Miami Beach mansion and private jets as collateral. He is currently held in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, a facility notorious for its poor living conditions, violence, and overcrowding.
