Blind Items Revealed #5
December 19, 2017
This foreign born north of the border B list musician who is out solo now after being in a group for quite some time owns several apartments in his hometown. Many of the apartments are in very low income areas. He is known for trading rent for sex. He is also known for forcing women to have sex if they can't pay their rent on time. They are afraid to call the police because he is rich and they are not. Many times these women are single mothers who have only recently emigrated. He takes advantage of this and has been known to beat women who refuse him. He is an awful human being.

Seems as if whoever this guy is was arrested for sexual assault yesterday.

ReplyDeletePerfect time for the reveal.
ReplyDeleteDrumstixx is the only one who got it!

He looks hot. Wonder what demons he has to make him beat people.
ReplyDelete@Jon, he doesnt have any demons, he just made a choice to be a really bad human being!

ReplyDeleteUgh just listened to Hedley, they f*ckin' suck. If we just locked up sh!tty musicians as a general rule this all could have been avoided.
ReplyDelete@Jon, really? he's got rape face. Looks like he was born with it too.
Looks like a giant gaping asshole to me
ReplyDeleteOh that's interesting. At least they won't have to deal with him soon enough.
ReplyDeleteHe was a runner up on the first Canadian Idol, I think. I don't have time now, but try looking up Jacob Hoggard Canadian Idol on youtube and hopefully you'll see him in that electric blue lycra or spandex full-body leotard. It sadly shows what he isn't packing.
Wow. I have never heard of this band or him. Didn't think I was that far removed from the sad state of music, but I guess I am.
ReplyDeleteYou Americans wont know much about Hedley but here in Canada their shitty music was always on the radio for YEARS.
ReplyDelete@shakey LOL. your comment has me dying, especially after looking up the picture
ReplyDeleteCanadians, what is the American equivalent, in terms or talent/ fame? Just so we know how shitty this guy is. Please and thank you.
ReplyDeleteFirst people to come to mind is G-Eazy and Pete Wentz. Jacob is a slimeball and no longer relevant in Canada anymore except for their die hard fans.
Delete@Sara Something close to Canada's Maroon 5
ReplyDeleteALL AND I REPEAT ALL BRITISH COLUMBIANS ARE AWFUL HUMAN BEINGS ALL OF THEM THEY ARE ALL SCUM.
ReplyDeleteThanks😂
DeleteHahah Jacob only WISHES he was the Canadian equivalent of Adam Levine. I can't even think of a good alternative, because I hate Hedley so much. I was once subjected to their concert 10 years ago (I never say no to free concert tickets, regardless how shitty the music is). Jacob competed on the second Canadian idol. The young girls LOVED him, so creating a band was a no brainer. And then he preyed on said young girls, as young as 13 according to some accounts.
ReplyDeleteThe thing you have to realize with us Canadians, is that we are FORCED to hear Canadian music on our radios. They literally have a quota - they must play so much Canadian content in order to continue operating. So a band like Hedley who has(had) a decent following is Canadian radio gold, and they are played over and over again. A band like Hedley may seem popular, but they really aren't, its just that the radio stations play them like they are. I never expected them to break through into the US, and they definitely didn't.
I have heard NOTHING but bad things about Jacob through the years. From friends, acquaintances and coworkers, first-hand and second-hand stories about meeting him and him being absolutely disgusting. So when the allegations surfaced earlier this year, I had no doubt that they were true.
There's a radio host in my city who came out publicly about her experience with him, and then the whole thing hit the fan and got even more coverage. Enty actually talks to this radio station a couple of times a month, and knowing the radio hosts experiences, referenced this particular blind a couple of months back.
But, Sara, to answer your question, if a Canadian band/artist is really that great, they will break through into the American market, move to the US and never look back. There is only one band that didn't do this and is still considered to be a Canadian treasure, and that is the Tragically Hip. But look at the rest of them - Bieber, Drake, the Weeknd. All Canadian, but do they still live in Canada, tour the country regularly, and call it their home? No, because the money to be made here is pennies in comparison to that of the US. So a band such as Hedley is known by most Canadians (we only have so many that can still be considered Canadian) in terms of fame, but that does not reflect on their talent
This feels like Enty/Enterns are trying to make a fake blind they posted fit into a real news story.
ReplyDelete@Ali Sorry to hear that.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like Ian Watkins, gross pedo vibe
ReplyDelete@Bill
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I don't know this band but it seems like the lead singer is not out "solo" now but that the band just imploded earlier in the year with the assault allegations.
Color me surprised - no rape aplogists in the comments on this one.
ReplyDeleteSee what I mean, it's rape face.
ReplyDeleteEww, didn't know Canada rationed its music.
30% Canadian content 🤮. I used to live across the border from Detroit. It was nice to have the option to listen to American music stations, and get to watch Super Bowl commercials
DeleteI didn't mind their stuff. It was a nice break from the back to back Drake/Weeknd all effen day.
ReplyDeleteThough, even when he was on CI, it was clear he was a dick, so I am not surprised.
No clue who he is but he looks like that American Idol gay that wears make up.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, good thing the perv has been arrested.
Sara he may be equivalent to Daughtry, I don't listen to his music but the careers seem to be about the same. And complete crap from Daughtrys side.
ReplyDelete@moonagedaydream6 - The Tragically Hip have a BIG cult following in the U.S. - we know what's up! ;-)
ReplyDeleteAnd you forgot the Barenaked Ladies!
@deadzo I was born in B.C. Fuck you.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea who this guy is, but I do like Hedley. I also like that we "have to" hear Canadian content; it means that we get exposed to a whole lot more stuff on radio than the average American does.
But I fucking hate The Tragically Hip.
Never heard of him/them so I searched on YouTube and the first song that came up was “Kiss you inside out”. Icky title but I clicked to hear the song anyway. Some lyrics:
ReplyDelete“I’ll feel every inch of your skin and you know I can rock your world...”
“Turn off the lights, take off your clothes, give up the fight, I’m in control...”
This guy has all the finesse of a sledge hammer.
SCTV was told they needed to include more "Canadian content" in their show. "But everyone who writes and performs on the show is Canadian" they said. "What do you want, guys in parkas drinking beer and eating back bacon?" Yes, they were told.
ReplyDeleteAnd so, Bob and Doug McKenzie were created.
moonagedaydream6, I don't know which stations you listen to. I listen to the only rock station in our area (lots and lots of classic rock). The only time I've heard a Hedley song is whenever he used to visit family - the morning dj either had him in the studio or on the phone. He blew smoke up his ass every time and those were the few times I heard a Hedley song.
ReplyDeleteAlso, as a side note, my nephew met them a while ago. They were at the local movie theatre. He said they were all really nice guys. So there's one person who had a good experience with them (even if he's male).
I disagree with what you said about Canadian bands being great only if they break into the U.S. The Canadian music industry has a history of being awful to its own. Gowan never made it big on his own, which is a real damn shame (yes, he sings for Styx now but that's besides the point). April Wine, Honeymoon Suite, Blue Rodeo, Matthew Good, Platinum Blonde, Sloan. Right now there's The Franklin Electric, Half-Moon Run, The Damn Truth (really check them out, the lead singer has an incredible rock voice). All this is off the top of my head. I know I'm missing a ton of other artists (no not Nickleback). Canadian music is not bad.
If you want to hear a good band that should have been picked up and promoted - Chalk Circle. Great rendition of 20th Century Boy. (This is going back to the '80s.)
