Celebrity scandals are so widespread that it’s easy to lose track of everything that has made headlines over the years.
We’ve rounded up the most outrageous behavior in Hollywood that goes way further back than the Jordyn Woods-Tristan Thompson drama or James Charles-Tati Westbrook feud, which you couldn’t have avoided on a desert island or digital detox. Could there be more to this celebrity scandal gossip than meets the eye?
While you may still have those shocking photos of Kristen Stewart cheating on her Twilight co-star and real-life boyfriend Robert Pattinson burned in your memory, even some of the loyalist Twi-Hards have forgotten the details of how their relationship came crashing down.
So what triggered our blast to the past? Twitter user @Hunty_dumpty_ asked their followers about their fave forgotten celebrity controversies. As expected, the results were hilarious and made us nostalgic AF for the days Amanda Bynes tweeted her every thought or when our favorite Disney stars got caught with cannabis for the first time.
It’s not like we take pleasure in these celebs mistakes, we’re all human, but it’s insane how these moments we thought we’d remember forever have just blown over.
It just goes to show, at the end of the day, most scandals have a very short shelf life.

The “No Brainer” singer is no stranger to igniting public outrage, and the day he visited the Anne Frank Museum caused quite a stir. Before leaving, Justin wrote in guestbook that he hoped if she not died a teenager in a Nazi concentration camp in 1945, she’d be a fan.
His exact entry reads: “Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber.”
The wave of internet backlash was brutal, calling him out for being “narcissistic and self-serving,” according to Rolling Stone. Naturally, Twitter lit up.

Don’t recall when Biebs did this? Maybe you recall him hitting a paparazzo, driving under the influence, his infamous egg-throwing incident, or when his pet monkey was taken by custom officials in Germany? The man’s been involved in his fair share of controversy.

The scandal was the center of attention and every headline, as every detail of the actress’s affair with her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders unfolded.
How could this be any worse? Rupert was married to her Snow White co-star, model Liberty Ross. Talk about awkward. Oh, and you may recall, freaking Donald Trump stepped in to blast his thoughts on Twitter.

This was all too much for our middle school minds to comprehend and I still have PTSD.

During a live TV fundraiser for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, Kanye ditched the lines prepared for him and went very off-script, announcing, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people.”
Immediately, the show’s producer cut him off and abruptly moved to the next presenter. Even funnyman Mike Meyers, who stood right next to Kanye as he made the comment, had no witty quip to ease the tension. The statement deeply affected the former president, who has said the moment was one of the worst moments in his presidency.

The beloved on-screen dad of Selena Gomez and David Henrie became a victim of a hacking, which exposed private photos of the actor. While there’s nothing more disturbing than having alleged nude pics circulating online, his fanbase lept to his defense.
Most Twitter users were upset and warned others to respect Russo’s privacy. Another reacted by saying, “Stop being mean to jerry russo he was a father figure to hundreds.”

Looks like David DeLuise’s Wizards Of Waverly Place costar David Henrie also got wrapped in an unexpected scandal. David was charged with three counts after TSA agents found a loaded handgun in his carry-on bag during the screening process.
He was super embarrassed about the incident and issued an apology. He claims to have unintentionally brought the weapon. David, what were you thinking?!

While we’re uncertain on the type of rocks Jennifer Lawrence claims to have rubbed her butt on, certain stones are considered sacred in Hawaiian culture for many reasons, and they often serve as a physical reminders of the spiritual world.
This was super disrespectful and not something she should have bragged about on The Graham Norton Show. Like, look how uncomfortable Chris Pratt looks while she tells her offensive tale. Keep in mind he lived in Hawaii and has spoken about how much he respects the culture there.
[fm_twitter url=”https://twitter.com/destroyvegas/status/806719332176654336″]
J-Law apologized and wrote on Facebook, “I meant absolutely no disrespect to the Hawaiian people. I really thought that I was being self-deprecating about the fact that I was “the curse,” but I understand the way it was perceived was not funny and I apologize if I offended anyone.”

You’ve seen the surveillance video, which showed a heated argument between Jay-Z and his sister-in-law following a 2014 Met Gala afterparty. The footage showed Beyoncé’s sis yelling and hitting the rapper before a security guard stepped in to try and restrain her. To this day, people are still unsure why Solange unleashed on Jay. Was it because he was allegedly cheating? Or something else?

Apparently the film was loosely based off the two reality stars, Paris and Nicole, who were made even more famous on their reality show The Simple Life.
One thing that’s still unclear — why were Hilary and Haylie feuding with Paris and Nicole? The Duff sisters repeatedly denied any bad blood between the two parties. Also, some eagle-eyed Twitter users think the bigger controversy is all the unnecessary Photoshop on Hilary’s face.

While the actor has since apologized for going ballistic on set with a four-minute, F-word-laced tirade after a crew member walked behind him, the leaked tape shocked fans.
“Why are you trashing my scene?” and threatening the man’s job were just a few of the things he screamed on the Terminator set.

The star livestreamed herself following and harassing a homeless family who she assumed were Syrian refugees, before accusing the couple of trafficking their own children.
She posted the bizarre saga to Instagram, and can be seen offering to take the wife and the couple’s son with her for the night, according to Vulture.

These are the words that America’s Sweetheart said after her husband, Jim Toth, was pulled over and arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence.
Obviously, we forgive her, and we’ve had all had one too many to drink (but haven’t been behind the wheel!). Plus she owned up on Good Morning America to say she “made a mistake” and it “will absolutely never happen again.” No recollection of this? You’re not alone.

Before she married her ex-husband Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie was wild.
Many remember when she kissed her brother James Haven on the lips after winning an Oscar for her role in Girl, Interrupted. That same night she said she was “so in love” with her brother during her acceptance speech.

Naturally, fans — or rather, parents of One Direction’s then-young fanbase — were upset that the boys were not being solid role models. But what became the bigger question was if the video was accidentally leaked, or if it was a planned attempt to escape their clean cut image. After all, it was Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson filming themselves smoking a “cannabis cigarette” in a car.

According to The New York Times, the actress walked away with thousands of dollars worth of designer goods from a Beverly Hills department store. She was found guilty of two felonies.
As for what she stole, the newspaper reported, “officers said they found $5,560 worth of stolen merchandise, including a cashmere Marc Jacobs sweater worth $760, various Frederic Fekkai hair adornments worth about $600, and several pairs of socks, including a cashmere pair from Donna Karan worth $80, inside two shopping bags and a garment bag.”
Peter Berlin, who runs a rehabilitation-based program for shoplifters, explained to TIME, “For most shoplifters, getting something for nothing is like giving themselves a reward that they feel they deserve.”

In an iconic interview, Mariah Carey was asked on her thoughts about J. Lo. Her response? “I don’t know her.”
Both divas have been repeatedly asked about the incident since, and Mariah just can’t stop throwing shade. Eventually Jen explained to Wendy Williams in 2016, “She’s forgetful I guess. We’ve met many times! I don’t know her that well.” We’re still confused by this.
