Holy crap, what happened to Dan Schneider?

It's pretty much an "open secret" that he's a pedophile who abused a number of the female stars of Nickelodeon shows.

This is a vine from one of his former stars. I don't see any way to interpret that except as a cry for help with the thinnest fucking veneer of hiding behind comedy.

Beyond that, of what I understand to be the openly verifiable stuff, he's openly a sex pest with a foot fetish as he has had a number of incredibly out of place scenes involving shots of underage female stars feet in the shows he has overseen, and he also tried to start a trend of getting (mostly underage) fans of his shows to write messages on their feet and post the pictures to twitter. I think it was "supposed" to be some sort of campaign to bring a show back?

Man is at absolute best a disgusting fucking creep preying on the underage for his foot fetish. Tons of circumstantial evidence that he's much much worse than that.

No, I know all that, I was referring to the picture. He's looking rough.

I mean he’s been fat most of his life and he’s pushing 60. But yeah his lips look weird with that beard
