well it depends, I mean if it’s someone you haven’t seen in a really long time it’s really not weird if he’s not invited. It’s like someone you were friends with in 4 grade, like cool, it was someone you were close with but it’s been a long time and life goes on. you don’t owe them anything, especially 10 years after no contact. also Josh said it was a small wedding, so not lots of people were invited 🤷🏼‍♀️

I get there’s drake scandal and it’s probably best you don’t associate with that, but don’t lie. Tom welling and Michael Rosenbaum had nice things to say about Allison Mack even after she was convicted with the cult. They didn’t deny that they never hung out after the show. Also, there was much better ways of handling not inviting drake to his wedding, look at what Justin Timberlake did, he didn’t invite any NSYNC member and he told the public “I don’t want my wife’s wedding to be overshadowed with a NSYNC reunion, today is her special day”

[@HasufelyArod]

Brilliant way to handle it, actually.

[@joyce_ribeiro03]

not trying to defend anyone here, but reuniting once a year or occasionally a few times over the year is not equal as being friends. this is kinda reminding me of selena and demi’s situation. they used to be best friends when they were younger, even did a movie together, KZbin videos, etc.. however they’re not close nowadays. and they also used to drink coffee at each other’s houses those last years and take pictures together on red carpets but it was all occasionally. I really doubt that if one of them would get married today, that the other one would get invited to the wedding lmao

[@darasagan7479]

Josh is a really terrible person. It’s very obvious he was friends with Drake in the beginning. Drake wasn’t perfect as we all know, he was probably too emotionally damaged and bitter about what happened to him, and that for sure may have affected a lot his social relationships on various levels. But one thing seemed clear, he thought of Josh as a friend and he seemed very thankful towards him for being a source of joy and a great companion throughout his difficult times growing up. As for Josh, It looks like he gradually grew bitter towards Drake, in part for his own self esteem issues and the fact, that during the show he was almost always the butt of the joke, deepening his own complexes and becoming more aware of the comparisons the audience and media would make between them. Drake’s scandals over the years seemed the perfect opportunity to disassociate from him publicly without any “real” repercussions. In the previous years after the show ended and before Drake’s scandals, he remained “friends” for the public just to protect an image and to please the fandom. Once Drake was involved in major trouble he jumped immediately just to add more fuel to the fire. All in all, this behavior makes it clear how Josh would mostly move by convenience and is capable of holding grudges for the longest time even when the reason of his animosity stems from his own unresolved self esteem issues. It would have been more noble and upright to simply having been honest from the start, making it clear that they were in fact friends that gradually fell apart and that he didn’t have any knowledge about any kind of wrongdoing as they hadn’t been in contact for long. It’s not that he was expected to support Drake’s misconduct either, just not add more fuel to the fire or throw an ex friend under the bus for everyone to see how he is the “better one”.

[@alfredschnozzenstein1657]

I could be wrong, but growing up watching the show, my theory is that since Josh was the fat one that didn't have luck in a lot of things in life, and Drake was the "ladies man", Josh probably felt some type of way, and decided to make a change for himself; which is what we see today. You may be thinking "what the hell does that have to do anything???" Well, now that Josh (maybe not now, but when he lost weight) is the big man on campus and Drake's career at the time was pretty stagnant, Josh probably wanted to know what it's like being the main person in the spotlight, which (in a way) played with his mind as seeing Drake as the "enemy" (I'm using that loosely), and him as the victim. All in all, I think Josh, deep down inside, always felt some type of way with Drake getting all the attention, and thought that his time was long overdue; which is why Josh not inviting Drake to his wedding played a huge role. Let's not take into account what happened behind the scenes.

[@CodenameDk]

So Drake got upset because he thought the relationship between him and Josh were stronger than what met the eye. I feel Drake because I go thru the same thing til this day. Took me a while to realize people don’t view you the same way you view them 💯

[@carlosbasurto5564]

Considering their show is the only acclaimed work on joshes resume inviting drake was mandatory. I dont get people that act weird or even offended when theu run into a close friend haven't seen in ages.

[@AnxiouslyGaming]

Josh is a straight up liar.. He's just mad that Drake got all of the attention.. I feel bad for Drake though.. Dude has always been honest and down to earth guy and then he got caught up with that Stan and made things even worse.

Drake is literally a pedophile what is bro jealous of? Is this section full of people who base their opinions off a show? Dumb asl

[@JameseGray1991]

Drake didn’t rape her. She spammed his Instagram DMs until he noticed & answered. She gave him a sob story & he gave her some advice, as a way to uplift her spirits, then sent her a picture of herself & complimented it. She thanks him for the advice & tells him he doesn’t know just how much he helped her. He never said anything else to her after that. She then started to get obsessive & kept trying to reach out to him (she admits this in the sentencing video), but didn’t succeed. He announces his engagement to his longtime girlfriend of 4 years. After learning about this, she decides to confront him over it, which resulted in her getting blocked by him. She then proceeds to contact his fiancé, confronting her about her relationship with him & telling her that she should’ve been the one to be with Drake instead of her. She then started stalking her page, thus proceeding to blackmail her with the allegations, threatening to tell the world that Drake had raped her. All this happened in 2017. The next year, she files a false police report, accusing him of Sexual Assault, grooming, sending her nudes & sexual texts. Now, while she’s doing this, Janet (his wife) & Drake are completely unaware that their lives are about to be turned upside down by this stalkerish fan. Drake plans more concerts & she pops up at every one since filing the report. Drake & the accuser’s phones were seized by the authorities when she made the claims. The investigation went on for 2 years. The accuser claimed that Drake had groomed her since the age of 12, starting in 2014. This implies that she & Drake were engaging in an online relationship for 3 years. This was apparently going on since the start of he & Janet’s relationship, which began in 2014. The investigators caught her in many other lies besides this big one. More lies included Drake getting sexual with her when she reached age 15. He started calling her “hot” & had sent her pictures of his genitalia. She stated that after she revealed her age, he continued talking to her. The investigators found no proof of that. They also found no proof that he forced her to give him a BJ backstage, fingered her while they both rode in the back seat of her aunt’s car on the way to his show, sent her dick pics, or that she was ever left alone in his hotel room. She, her aunt, & her aunt’s friend were all invited to visit his hotel room after the 2nd show. When they arrived, he was blow drying his hair & when he finished, he gave them a tour, talked to them & they took the conversation out in the hallway. Her aunt told her & her friend to wait out in the hallway while she stayed behind to get her birthday card autographed by him. The accuser told the friend that she was planning on ruining his life because he rejected her advances on Instagram. When she heard this, she was furious & decided to confront the aunt. She then informed the accuser’s mother & they both accused her of lying, which resulted in her being disowned by the family. She had known the accuser & her family for over 20 years. She knew they were setting him up when she was later contacted by the authorities. Both she & Drake each told their side of what happened. She had stated that his life is ruined by this & expressed how hurt she was over being accused of lying. The investigators also discovered that the accuser had kept photos of Janet in her phone because she was using them to stalk & harass her over her relationship with Drake. She stated this in a video she made on Instagram earlier this year. I've never heard of a potential victim of Sexual Assault stalking & blackmailing a newly engaged woman because she believed that her fiance should've been with her. The accuser amped up the drama by claiming that Drake gave her nightmares, panic attacks (she pretended to have one right after saying this, which caused Drake to look at her ass as if she was crazy), was the reason that she was in therapy (she was in therapy way before she even met him) & has a lack of trust in men. She stated that had she not been on her period, she was sure that he would've raped her. She also doesn't hesitate to blame her aunt for "allowing" her to be assaulted & that is the reason why their relationship is so rocky, when the actual reason why their relationship is shaky is because she blatantly lied on her. She says that he doesn't have any remorse for the pain he caused her (getting engaged & not being dumb enough to choose a teenager over his girlfriend), that he was a coward for appearing on Zoom instead of in court in person, & doesn't shy away from dragging him over revealing that he was happily married & was a new father & says that he's trying to present himself to the world as a good man just because he had a child (which was his wife's idea to reveal their marital status to the world once everything blew over, as she stated in her video) & that she deserves better than to be used by his "sick desires" before signing off by stating that he is a pedophile & that was his legacy. Because of her, people now believe that he is a pedophile who was cheating with her behind his wife's back, when the girl was already blocked before they even got married. His wife is getting unfair backlash because she stood by him throughout this entire horrific ordeal & they're outright disgusted by his actions because they really believe the things she accused Drake of doing to her & are treating her as if she's an actual victim of abuse, when in reality she was nothing but a stalker who became unhealthily obsessed with Drake to the point of deluding herself into believing that she'd get to be with him the SECOND he acknowledged her. They never had a relationship. He never met her at the club. She showed up there, due to the fact that she’d found out that he was having a concert there because he’d announced it in a tweet to his fans. She’d kept attending his concerts, posing as an 18 year old until he grew suspicious & asked for her age. She confessed that she was 15 & as a result got blocked from his Instagram account. She made his life a living hell because she was pissed at him for blocking her once he learned her real age. He was charged with Child Endangerment, which had something to do with a meet & greet after the 2nd show. He was never charged with any sex crimes & had never plead to them. Her aunt was scheduling meet & greets. The family friend attended 2 out of 9 concerts, which were the concerts she claimed to be assaulted after. Drake Bell was accused by a former fan of sending her "inappropriate messages" when she was a minor. She filed a complaint with the Ohio police & Drake was investigated for 2 years. Electronic devices were siezed & the Instagram/Facebook message file was requested. During the investigation, they realized that Drake cut off communication with the girl when he found out her age. THEY NEVER FOUND INTIMATE IMAGES. There was also no sexual record in these messages. Drake is one of the few artists who really takes the time to respond to networks, open DMs & share. In her case, this ex-fan (& her family) wanted to take advantage of this. The girl's family continued to take her to Drake's shows in Ohio & were with her at all times, even getting Meet & Greet through contacts. She attended 9 shows in total following her accusations. This is mentioned in the trial. During the final hearing, after sentencing Drake for responding to the messages, the "victim" gave further statements WITHOUT PROOF, saying that Drake had abused her. The same lawyers denied it at that precise moment, since there were multiple witnesses. The girl was accusing Drake without evidence and lying in court, because at that time Drake began to make his relationship with Janet more public (when he announced his engagement). There is also evidence that the girl wrote things to Drake like "I miss you", after the accusations & that she kept photos of Drake's partner, even sending her messages & invading her privacy. Drake pleaded guilty for: 1. Exchanging messages WITHOUT KNOWING the age of the girl. This was the advice she seeked out from him on Instagram. 2. Having met her at a Meet & Greet, with other people present, since this for US law is "endangering" a minor. Drake never accepted charges for abusing anyone. Another thing that started as gossip in the United States is that Drake Bell had "escaped" to Mexico to evade his crimes, which is false. Drake likes to visit Mexico and has been coming for years. Your visits have absolutely nothing to do with your case. Drake Bell does NOT live in Mexico nor did he change his nationality and the nickname "Campana" was given to him by the same fans. Drake came this past weekend (May 22) to a festival in Orizaba and was invited to a club in Orizaba and Pachuca. We want to make it very clear that in the trial it is pointed out and highlighted that NONE of the charges that Drake faced have a record of sexual or abuse. So calling him “abuser”, “vi0lad0r”, “ped0phile”, etc. is DEFAMING Drake Bell. The law never found evidence for those accusations." - Taken from the FFDB Project (Fans For Drake Bell) Twitter Page.

drake got all the attention indeed after grooming a minor

[@Deleted11100]

What is it with Americans defending pedos. In the UK if there is even a whisper someone is a pedo, they best move towns and watch their back forever. In America, you have half the population actively defending and worshipping pedos. Trump for example, a man who said he’d fck his own daughter, is best friends with Rudi, the man caught red handed trying to abuse what he thought was an underage girl, and visited Epstiens island. Very odd bunch.

Frankly I dont believe it. I think they were close during the show but the show was all that they had in common. It's business. You do a thing, jobs over, you move on to more work. To keep yourself above. So losing touch is fine. I think fans who love the nostalgia want to know that their favorite people are still getting along but that's fantasy. I think if they ever reunited on the street their would be no issue but since fans wanted to know if they were cool it started this thing. But I definitely don't believe the cursing out over text messages. I need to see that. Josh is started to seem like he's never willing to give help when people need him.

Poor Drake…I know exactly the type of “friend” Josh is/ was. He’s the type to kinda talk shit behind your back because he’s a coward, while Drake thinks they’re cool. It’s happened to me and it hurts. Josh is the two faced “friend.” Trying to be cool with all these new big KZbinr douche bags…pretty messed up tbh…smh.

[@gloriaammerman61]

I guess there are better ways to say things. Yes everyone gets offended. But usually the bride picks who goes to the wedding not the groom. I have gone to 3 weddings where no one in the grooms side was there. It was all the brides choice since the her father paid for it. Drake should not be mad at Josh but rather the bride. Sometimes your future spouse doesn’t like the people that you hang out with and you end up choosing her family in order to keep the relationship. This is what is happening. I see it all the time.
