Who beat up Melissa Benoist???

~~TommyT~~ · 11-28-2019, 05:30 PM

It sounds like maybe it was Blake Jenner, or Nick Vorderman.

Waiting for Cubed in 3..2..1..

*FredWolfLeonardo* · 11-28-2019, 06:33 PM

It was CyberCubed.

She should’ve been with Cubed. Cubed never would have done this.

*MikeandRaph87* · 11-28-2019, 07:52 PM

Can we give up teasing Cybercubed about his celebrity crush? This is a serious matter and I commend her for being able to understand what was happening, get out the relationship, become stronger for it and help others. Melissa is a true Supergirl!

I hope that she is now safe and secure. I wish her all the best.

May her abuser be brought to justice.

She would have needed to speak up years ago for anything like that to happen. Even if she came right out and revealed his name tomorrow, the fact that it happened so long ago means that he's beyond any kind of punishment. The worst that could ever happen is, she could name him, and then (rightfully) nobody would ever hire him again. I'm *assuming* it's a semi-famous person, but even if it wasn't, and he was just a "civilian", being outed as "the guy who almost blinded Melissa Benoist by throwing a phone at her" would ensure that he couldn't even get a job sweeping up hair at the barber shop.

However, interestingly enough, she refuses to reveal who it was, which is kind of infuriating. Also, enabling. Like, it literally helps him get away with it. What's the risk of revealing his identity now? She's rich, married, and most likely has security people. It's highly unlikely that he could get back at her now. Why not reveal who it was? Even though he can't be prosecuted, it's better off that he be revealed. Keeping it a secret only ensures that he'll go on to hurt other people.

Either she still carries a torch for him - which happens - or he's actually a famous guy and part of their split included some kind of paperwork she signed saying that she'd never talk about it, like the Depp/Heard situation.

It's definitely f*cked up that it happened to her, and sure, great for speaking out, but... between waiting so long and refusing to point the finger at the abuser, it doesn't accomplish much beyond making people feel sorry for her. Which is fine, she absolutely deserves the sympathy/empathy, but still... in order to actually "do good" you can't protect people who do these kinds of things in the first place. She definitely should just name the names, but again, she probably "can't". Which is frustrating.

I'm sure she'll read this!

No need to be sarcastic Powder. Just calling off the dogs going for Cubed when it is a serious matter.

Leo, I know very little about her, didn't even know that she remarried so quickly, but while she did not mention a name she said he was younger than her, her first husband this Jenner guy is an actor 3 years younger and would fit. I am sure that the video will get him to be questioned and kept from jobs.

She is a bit late on this particular train, yeah? Why even say anything at all now? To "bring awareness"? We've already been there and done that, bigtime.

*Prowler* · 11-29-2019, 12:19 PM

I don't want to make light of a serious situation like domestic violence by any means, but I'm disappointed that CyberCubed didn't make this thread. I fully expected him to be the OP.

I'm offended. I truly do, with all my heart, love and appreciate Cubed.

Well I don't think much will happen over this if it happen a while ago. Still what happen to Melissa Benoist was not right and should never happen to any woman.
