Famous Historical Playboys Who Were Actually Scumbags

- For centuries, society has cheered on men who rack up the greatest number of “conquests” - conquests of women, that is. In some circles, sleeping with thousands of women is ostensibly a badge of accomplishment. Even several popes have bragged about their illicit encounters. Unsurprisingly, many of the biggest playboys in history are also some of the most infamous figures.

Fun little tidbit, Edward VII had over 50 mistresses. He was so obsessed with sex, that, when he had gained considerable weight, he had a chair specially made so that he could continue to have sex without the risk of crushing the woman.
Funny how he also was owned karmically later on
I think there's a video about that on this channel lol
Every lady's crush lol
Heard about that.
Gross
I’d say a quote from Firefly applies here:
“It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of sumbitch or another.”
The hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne! 🎶
Browncoats unite!
That is a perfect saying. I've never thought about it but it's probably true
Nobody is perfect. And nobody is liked by everybody. But I think that George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were pretty decent guys.
You win the internet for citing Firefly. Thank you !
men in love with themselves, more than anything else
Is that a Sex Pistols reference? Lol
You hit the Bullseye
In love with themselves and just using women for their needs
Nothing wrong with being in love with yourself
@@dyskelia I mean it goes both ways
By his own account, Casanova fathered a child with his own daughter. The man was disgusting.
They call males "great lovers" but women they call nymphomaniacs.
Which was a normal thing back then. Want proof? Well, ask the Habsburg family. They have a 200 year long history of being... very close connected
@@MonkeyDToniProductions Hapsburgs married *cousins*, not their own children.
@@SafetySpooon You get the point though
I'm not clear on the details, but I've heard that Casanova might have lied about that in his book to make it more outlandish. Some accounts say that Casanova *almost* slept with his daughter but fortunately found out who she was and backed out before it was too late.
Anyone, man or woman, who can't be faithful to one partner and abuses said partner, obviously has a personality disorder.
Try "playboys who were not actually scumbags" ..Much harder to find.
I’d love to watch that 😂
Oof. Now that's a challenge.
Not a thing
Lol
That is a lot more difficult, but I assure you that we do exist. 😏🥂
"Today's Playboy is not Hugh Hefner's Playboy"...I'd like to think Hugh haunts that mansion
They say you can smell pipe smoke by the grotto when the moon is full...
Instead of terrified screams you just hear constant moans of senior citizen orgasms
Hugh was an evil sumvahbitch make no mistake
@@ArcherSuh4721 and taste quaaludes in the tap water every time theres a blood moon..
That place is a Superfund site
I once read that when Camilla first met Charles way back when they were teen-agers, her first words to him were, "I'm so very happy to meet you. My great-grandmother was your great-grandfather's mistress." I guess the rest is history!
Not teenagers, but young adults.
Hold up man, you might need to make this a series. There’s a lot of people that you left out of this list
No woman ever thought that a playboy was anything but a scumbag😅
😅😅
Absolute BS. Many women love them.
@@rodycaz8984 They may think they're charming for obvious reasons but certainly no woman in her right mind would think that they're trustworthy men that's for sure..
No woman? Most women are attracted to what is perceived as the top 10% of men in the eyes of other women. A playboy by definition gets a lot of action.
@@geraldfriend256 be careful using logic in CZcams comments. Channels are the new fanboi sounding boards.
At what point in history has the word “playboy” not been synonymous with “scumbag” ?
I suppose the magazine? But even then, I am not sure on that front either
Could you do a video on the history of Louisiana, cajuns, mardi gras, etc. Maybe even the weird history of different states!?
That would be fun! Create a playlist or a separate channel?? 😮😅
I remember when Prince Charles got caught cheating on Princess Diana with Camilla Parker Bowles.
Most embarrassingly, it was revealed that he had written to her, "I want to be your tampon."
On the tampon thing with Prince Charles - total yuck! Can't stand those people anyway.
Ugh yuck!
...smooth....real smooth....
Well, at least he’s a man with a positive attitude toward menstruation.
Silver lining (?)
Probably the most disgusting "love" comment ever.
It gives that Levert song Casanova a whole new meaning for me.
I always thought it was a song about him being gae tor Casanova
I'm surprised the other notable lethario, the Marques de Saad, wasn't mentioned.
Uhh isn't he more know for being a child predator than "playboy"?
@@Harleyxjokerforever I'm not entirely sure, but they did coin the term "sadist" because of him. He was a pretty depraved person, whether he dealt with minors or adults.
He was no playboy he was plain douche....
Damn Fidel...how did you have the energy for all that revolutioning ?
You should make a video about Richard Wagner and his antics, and how he was just horrible to his first wife Minna Planner. He did not even go to her funeral.
He was also a raging anti-semite.
@@jordanwaskelis4913
Yes, I've heard of that. One of Wagner's biggest fans was Adolf Hitler, who considered the 19th Century composer the creator of the purest Aryan German music. Hitler even had a friendly exchange with some of Wagner's descendants.
Of course, Wagner was not *known* as a "playboy". He was known as a self-aggrandizing composer.
Missed opportunity to talk about Porfirio Rubirosa, Dominican playboy and rumored inspiration to the James Bond character.
Lol he was supposed to be a scumbag though. It’s part of his legacy. These men here are kings, politicians, artists. Rubi was just a dude with a huge schlong that preyed on women. It was his life and everyone knew
With his dick resembling the overlong pepper mills…
The Playboy docu about the abuse of playmates was so twisted
Twisted to a Blue Pilled narrative
And by abuse we mean "girls who sell themselves for money in a mansion where men go to have sex for money with girls who receive money in exchange for sex".... yeap
@@mikatu Yeah, odd how the male gender has somehow become responsible for any full grown women who seek to be prostitutes and who remain in full control of their lives while doing so.
A couple years back I was in Cuba for a week. Alot of people there thought I was "one of Fidels bastards." Sounds negative but a couple of shopkeepers gave me 20 percent off of their trinkets (yes there was actual price tags on the items) and they were extremely friendly towards me. It was quite nice.
But Justin Trudeau may very well be one of them.
Video: *Talks about Fidel Castro
Conservative retards: jUsTiN tRuDeAu!
@@miguelbayonrivera2467 oh, Trudeau is talking about his father?
@@thehair1474 Trudeau was born in '71, ten months after his parents married. They didn't meet Castro until '76. Stop irritating the f*ck out of all us Canadians.
@@oliviamartini9700 I know all that. It's FUN to irritate the f-ck out of you Canadians. My first ex was Canadian. He was not only a clueless idiot, but was horrifically jealous of the United States, although he HAD become an American citizen, lol.
Isn't the whole idea that a 'playboy' is a monogamy-breaker, thereby automatically rendering him a moral villain in every circumstance?
@@dae6736 Found the degenerate.
From a religious point of view, certainly. But objectively, most men would consider such a person a winner, a dude that has great seduction skills and someone they wish they could be like. The inner predatory animal is showing up , no matter if they realize it or not. Marriage was invented to tame that predatory animal, mind you. 🤔
Yes traditionally.
But welcome to 2023, where 21 year old prudes with rainbow boyish haircuts are scouring the interwebs to cancel any historical icon of another era so they can earn social media cred and hopefully become beacons of morality while sitting alone in a dark room suffering from mental health issues wondering why they are so lonely.
Zoomers have become ultra conservative prudes and have ushered in a new era of hyper digital moral panic..and the sad thing is they are too busy being stupified by the tiktok "for you" algorithm to even release.
@@ConceptualMadness i blame their parents :)
My generation (b. 1975) were the ones with abandonment issues from our parents, and a lot of my peers went overboard with the 'parental protection', thereby raising a large group of trepidatious ninnies with no life skills. But the morally conservative streak they've embraced has legit surprised me too.
Give 'em time... we were their age once.
We just had WAY more fun doing it. ;)
@@KFCuser That's what i'd normally have thought too, but I've seen enough true crime to know that even people who aren't religious are just possessive af about their romantic partners. IDK if that's more of a Western/American thing but it feels more pervasive than that.
Casual lovin' gets a bad rap even from the heathens! :)
The more things change the more they stay the same.
I like this
@@Trendsetter5420 what human beings do every day in their lives defines them in the afterlife.
Disappointed I didn't make the list. Must try harder...
The fact that they are playboys shows that they love themselves more than they could ever love any one else. They are narcissists by definition
Are they? Or maybe they're just very good at being attractive? In the end it seems like society wants to hate on slut shaming women, but when a guy sleeps around he must be a monster?🤔Doesn't seem fair to me
In the end most people are out to get the best deal for themselves, every individual is an egotist in their way. Women use men for various things and men use women for various things.
In most cultures throughout time it's been common for men to have multiple partners, it's only generally the Judaeo Christian model that believes in monogamy. These guys just seem to be doing what works for them, people in general only seem to get mad due to insecurity and envy. Women because they can't keep these dudes for themselves, and dudes because they want to be like them (even if both parties won't admit it)
I mean it's completely natural for a man to want to sleep with as many women as possible it's evolution but I agree it's pretty shitty to do if you're married
Oh my goodness I just love this channel. Awesome and interesting vid, as usual ❤️
Lol nice name
I’m surprised that Henry the 8th wasn’t mentioned. Wasn’t he known to be quite a “playboy” during his time? 🤔
I'm surprised they didn't mention Cassanova bought a 12 year old for... stuff.
Our family watches White Christmas (1954) every year featuring Bing Crosby, and I remember the day my mom told me that out of context of the movie he was awful to women and hit his wife often. It’s hard to continue to enjoy the film without thinking about how filming could’ve possibly been for the women- Even Danny Kaye.
Missed opportunity to release this for Valentine's Day 😎
What's love got to do with it?
@@susanprendergast7384 Ha. Exactly. What's love got to do with Valentine's?
Because its sooo romantic??? 😆
A+ video!
LOVE IT! Such a unique topic, hardly every talked about!
@2:44 Picasso - He also used to go to Cuba to go see is other side family he had with an Afro-Cuban woman, which the European/white Picasso's do not acknowledge. He impregnated her many times, and never took care of the children. She never got any kind of support. Some of the children have shown an artistic inclination in the way of painting.
Great narration !
Thank god this narrator hits everytime
Thank you
Always interesting and informative
Peace 💕🇺🇲
It’s almost as if the traits that make you a “playboy” actually make you a horrible person, which is what women have been saying especially with regards to the “pick up artists”
Surprised Errol Flynn didn't get a mention.
I never will look at Crosby or Sinatra the same way again.
Can you do a video on the founding of Quebec the first french Canadian settlers ? My girlfriend is french Canadian and it would be super cool to hear about it
"Breakfast IS the most important meal of the day"
I’ll always be in love with Weird History!
The loverboy method is still used to this day. One of the more famous cases is happening in Romania
It’ll be hilarious when Hugh Hefner has been completely scrubbed from Playboy
What a wholesome vid for a Sunday. Good morning!
How about people who were actually nice in real life? Shorter list?
MUCH shorter, I suspect. 😕
@@KAT-dg6el you’re definitely bitter
Casa - house/home ~ nova - No go
That sounds about right. He went to women in broken homes
Hemingway. Well, that's pretty much it. Good day. I said GOOD DAY, SIR!
Love the title!
Mia Farrow REALLY knows out to pick them!
One correction: in the segment on Edward VII, it was not "Jennie Spencer Jerome", her name was "Jennie Jerome Churchill" . Jerome was her maiden name and she was married to Sir Randolph Churchill.
She had the affair with Edward VII before she married Lord Churchill
@@a.o.5695 Interesting . . . I thought I had read that Edward VII only got involved with married women so that if there was a pregnancy, it would be assumed that it was the husband's.
😎😎 hi friend
@@stephaniecowans3646 🤣🤣🤣😃😆😆😆😆😆
@@stephaniecowans3646 that does sound like something he would do.
Great !!!
On predators and preys. Nothing said about the preys, especially on reasons for them becoming preys.
Fleming was writing about his pal Christopher Lee. Or so the rumor goes
please do a video on daniel phillips upham!!!
This channel is more valuable than you can imagine, yes, it's funny and informative. Discussing the notorious lives of "famous" people was needed to peel away the veneer of their "nice" personalities (sorry for the quotes, but hey...). I grew up thinking Crosby was a nice guy but as I grew older and people got fed up with his abuse, I learned that Mr. Christmas was a phony as Santa Claus.
Please do the battle of Athens TN
Go vols
Damn now Cowboy Casanova by Carrie Underwood is gonna be stuck in my head for a few days
Is that Mr Roper in the picture?
Omg, haven't even gotten past the title and I'm already entertained lol.
PLEASE DO FAMOUS FEMME FATALES NEXT ❤
Ian Fleming's dismissal of women is rooted in the same one that Bond's is. The two women he actually genuinely loved he shows in both _Casino Royal_ and _On Her Majesty's Secret Service_ . One was a traitor and spy who set him up. The other was murdered. Fleming's own real life was reflected in the original Bond Novels.
so the two women he loved could not be his, he decided to treat all others poorly? yeah that makes it better
Don't take it too hard, he doesn't care about you so stop being a living stereotype
@@layna-heyhey It's interesting that we consider men sleeping with multiple women as 'treating them poorly' but it's slut shaming to attack women for the same?
I find this double standard a little sad tbh, in the end each of these women made a choice to be with bond, if he didn't stay with them perhaps it reflects as much on them as him?
It seems to me this is really no different to when men complain about women who won't sleep with them. The only difference is that society blames one and defends the other.
@@AeneasGemini Picasso would not allow his wife to divorce him and kept her to him even though he was running around on her made her a horse in his painting.
Casanova was probably passing around some sort of sexually transmitted disease.
Hugh Hefner was being abusive to the women around him and also had a wife on the same property as the Playboy mansion.
A woman having sex with a whole bunch of men is a w**** a man having sex with a whole bunch of women is somehow a stud there is a double standard but it seems to be in favor of men because it's a man driven world.
People should be treated with respect regardless but the world is not that. Sadly
@@layna-heyhey , the fact you don't get the point shows you are a stereotype. See.. in one case, the woman betrayed everyone for another man.. including a man who also loved her. In the other, she was murdered. In the world of spies (real life) people are fungible and pawns in the first place.
hello guys, first a big hug from a Brazilian who owns a blind dog, and he is barfing to nothing rigth now as he lunches, xD
As a big fan of your work, i scroll'd all the videos to the start of this channel, and took look to what i found, the video about braveheart was one of the first videos of this narrator that we have today
and how it changed the channel!! without this new aproach, you guys would never be soo big and unique, as you are
thx for teaching, entertaining and just being friendly towards knolegde
sry for the english, you know, its quite hard to find proper education around the middle of nothing (Anapolis - Goias - Brasil)
Reallly enjoy your content
Valeu ai pessoal do historia esquisita, voces são exelentes
Yay! New upload 😍
Deus benedicat tibi🙏🏻
I had no idea about the scandals surrounding Hefner. I collect old playboys but I feel bad now....
Justin truedo bears a striking resemblance to fidel castro
Yeah, I was blown away that didn't get mentioned. True or not, it's a very well-known rumor. Even Joe Rogan talked about it while showing side-by-side photos.
11:15 The film White Christmas is being re-released on December 15th, the day I received my Associates degrees.
Watching that last year on Christmas Eve with my mother and it snowed on Christmas!
4:22 Watched The Patriot (per a spotlight from Weird History) last night for Memorial Day.
The first time Benjamin Martin and Harry Burwell met was in Charles Town, which was named after Charles II.
It was changed to Charleston and I lived there in 2004-2005.
Where is Caligula?
the lemp family owned the limp brewery and the lemp mansion in st. louis mo very famous family the mansion was built in 1890.. it would be awesome to see a weird history video about it and something historic in my city
Casanova was a librarian!
Glad to hear somebody else had the same reaction to James Bond I did.
What makes my skin crawl is the fact that the likes of Crosby & Sinartra are still revered in Hollywood today as though ignoring their appalling behaviour is perfectly acceptable. WTH?
Presley too
@@donnadanielsen9411 Yes. Loved his music but he was no angel either.
But not the levels of Bing or sinatra at least he treated family better then Bing and sinatra public bullying behavior especially when drinking.
Who is? But like the church sex scandal and boy scout sex scandals there are more important people to keep a eye on including media,police,military,medicine etc don't worry about entertainers fan or not they don't impact our lives.
@@toshiojohnston3732 Valid point but, they do however have some influence over people who aspire to emulate them no matter their behaviour. Look at that Andrew Tate & the influence he has over his followers. And don't even get me started on the churches & the people who abuse their positions of power. Personally, while I may admire people's body of work or the good that they do, I refuse to idolize anyone & remind myself that no-one is beyond reproach.
Female POV: All playboys are scumbags, but not all scumbags are playboys.
Maybe they're just 'scumbags' because they didn't like you enough to stay? 🤔
I find women that complain who about playboys are similar to men who complain about women that won't sleep with them. Only difference is that society blames the dudes but absolves the women of responsibility.
In the end, women do keep going for them and skipping out on the other guys 🤷♂ So maybe women need to up their game to keep these dudes or they need to start looking for different guys?
@@AeneasGemini It would help if women quit fawning over these dudes, yes. Though I can't say there isn't a fair share of them just out for what they can get out of these guys, too. And there's plenty of females that do the same thing as well.
I figured out early not to date these guys. My high school had plenty of 'em, and they were pretty upfront with me about how they are, and never took "No," as a personal insult, because there was always someone else who was willing. I had no problem being friends with them or hanging out at school. The ones that I knew weren't going to force themselves on anyone, either - but they would warn me about the guys to be wary of. To this day I still don't trust anyone that comes off as too charming (regardless of gender).
So yes, whether a playboy (or playgirl) is a scumbag depends on POV as well as what he's done outside the normal playboy routine. I hadn't thought about most of those guys in years, so thank you for pointing that out and refreshing my memory.
LOL Even THAT'S not true at all. There are playboys who are still good people entirely, both man AND woman entirely. You have a backwards POV on this.
Very Interesting
My Great grandfather was friends with Bing Crosby
Should have mentioned Bob Hope, Warren Beatty, and of course Jack Nicholson.
One good woman is enough for any man. Any man who wants more than one woman does not deserve a good woman!
How do you handle more then one mother in law?
The only one that surprised me was Bing. But lots of interesting info in here!
And then there was the way he treated his sons, two of whom ended up killing themselves.
Thirteen? A child!! What the heck!
First yes also great video
Man, this is something.
11:30 "Fank" Sinatra 🤣
The last two hurt. I grew up with my grandna & was pretty familiar with Sinatra & Crosby films & songs.
Didn't know Sinatra married The Last Unicorn though.
Mia's son is spitting image of Frank and looks nothing like those Woodsie Allen genes, yet people blame Woodsie Allen for everything. Imagine that happens to you as a would-be father that can be divorce graped.
With that title..I clicked immediately
"Who were Actually Scumbugs"
Me: That wasn't your 1st assumption 😟?
as consort to king charles iii, camilla is queen, not duchess of cornwall any longer. that title now belongs to catherine, princes of wales.
History does tend to repeat itself
Best part about Frank Sinatra and Mia Farrow, she was on the set in the middle of shooting Rosema,ry's baby when he called her and told her to walk off because she was leaving the production to co-star in his next contribution to historic Cinema, "Tony Rome". After a brief series of exchanges where she tried to nicely explain she just couldn't do that,, he told her they were through hung up on her and divorced her.
In a memoir, eldest son Gary Crosby said Bing beat and verbally abused him and his brothers and that he cheated on their mother.
Formerly famous now INFAMOUS
8:32 In the film House Bunny, Hugh Hefner plays himself at the Playboy Mansion.
It has Anna Faris, great film!
Suddenly, the values of paintings of Picasso started to drop very very very significantly because of what he did to his wife.
purportedly did
nobody buying picasso paintings would care about that. im sure they've done much worse themselves
You’re a fool to confuse the art with the artist.
"Spit incredible GAME"- Amazing WEIRD HISTORY 🏆☺️
:10. So you just thought you'd drag a picture of Joe DiMaggio though the mud??? DiMaggio was know for being a gentleman.
What’s the first song that plays in the background?
I believe it's Mozart, however I can't find this piece anywhere so your guess is as good as mine. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
weird history pls do a 2010s timeline
Anyone know the guitar song's name or where I can find it when it plays during Castro's segment? It sounded so good!
Big fan of ol Fank Sinatra lol
You should have mentioned Jerry Lee Lewis
Now do one about famous femme fatales
Anyone knows which is the song playing during Casanova explanation?
