Part of the reason I'm fine with it is because I can't see a major corporation firing a very public figure without really vetting the situation legally. There's no way he gets fired for something as little as he's kinky and likes BDSM. It just wouldn't happen. Which is why I can easily buy something darker being under the surface.
Alternatively, if these victims don't come forward The Star has just opened themselves up to legal case against them.

I'm still waiting for all of the facts, not just hearsay and rumours. I'll be the first to condemn Jian once there is actual proof against him, but right now there is none.
