With so many celebrity scandals happening, most of them don't stay in the spotlight for more than a few days until the next one comes along. And as it turns out, some of us can't live without all that drama. To indulge in this emotional rollercoaster of celebrities constantly messing up big time, twitter user @Hunty_dumpty_ came up with a thread idea. They asked people, "What's your favorite forgotten celebrity controversy?" and the thread was quickly filled with some of the juiciest controversies that glued many of us to the screen at the time they went public. Want to refresh your memory? Scroll down below and share the ones they missed in the comments!

I am kind of glad people forgot about this because I didn't want him profiting off of that book. Can we talk about how people forgot that Mike Tyson was convicted of rape and served less than three years.
I hate that man and I am so disappointed that he is back on top.
Load More Replies...I actually always remember this because it's like... the greatest f*****g dark comedy. It might as well be called "LOL Double Jeopardy".
not that much really - he added in a "helper" but still lied and lied
Load More Replies...If the initial officers hadn't have screwed up...I think, but don't quote me, one of them may have been racist which may have swayed the jury to the defense. But I don't know all the facts of the whole thing. But I think Oj sometimes acts like someone who literally got away with murder. And I watch way too much true crime.
I'd like to talk about how damn near every famous person seems to get 10 chances while I could mess up just once and get crucified.
I've read it - the book was bought by the families of the victims and the money goes to them, and apart from the chapters he wrote (which are appallingly self-serving) the other chapters are about the crime and his guilt, so it's actually worth it in some ways. Oh and the cover... the 'IF' part is faded out almost illegibly. There is no doubt in reading this that he did it.
First edition the words "I did it" were in red right lol and he had to fix or sum
LOL, Freddie is the best! "Simon Ferocious" sounds like a name for a pet ferret :)
I mean, it's just weed and nudity. Also, it sounds like something he'd do, so I feel like it just kind of "made sense" for him, so it didn't stand out?
Money doesn't buy class but it can buy donuts. Ariana may have money but without class and donuts she is utterly worthless.
Last I checked, she just converted to Islam. Bashing one sect in favour of another is not my idea of being a free-thinker !
Didn't even know about this. Now that's when a joke went too far and became stupid. Expected more from her..
Was it scandalous? I thought it was more like "hilarious incompetence".
What bothers me with this one is that no one ever mentiones that "married man", like it was all her fault. She was very young, almost a child, and thou in relationship, she wasn't married (no one ever believed that her relationship was real anyway), but no one ever blames married man who was clearly adult, and I feel iike woman has to take all the blame in these cases no matter what.
I think that was forgotten because so few people care about that kind of personal relationship drama.
Well, clearly it's because we only know the guy as "High School Musical cello guy". I have no idea who he is!
they made up so might as well forget it, real problems are happening that aren't this petty bs
Amanda has great talent. I hope that she is able to use her creativity in life, as she properly manages her mental health.

The other one that stands out to me is Sean Connery stating quite openly and casually that women need a good slapping once in a while, because they just get over emotional and it needs to be done. Can't stand the man after reading that.
How weird that celebrities are fallible as us. It's almost like they are humans. I red an article once that explained that celebrities are celebrated as semi god because humanity is used to have them for millenia. Think as Britney Spears (im not up-to-date) as aphrodite. Peoples looae their s**t when she shaved her hair. She had to do public excuses for that. Every time I come here i feel that this theory is quite on the nose. Peoples need to worship champions and they dont like being disappointed by them.
It's human nature I guess. To look for alphas, role models, whether we do it consciously or subconsciously. But something twisted over the last century for celebrities. We used to worship them from afar, and now they have to live in compounds for their own safety, get papped, and can't even get married without helicopters and zoom lenses.
Load More Replies...What about the Hoff eating his burger drunk as a skunk. And I seem to remember a celebrity left really mean voicemails on his daughters phone but I can't remember who that was XD
Alec Baldwin - I think he called her an ungrateful little pig. Nice.
Load More Replies...I'm both glad and kinda embarrassed for not knowing many of the names in this list...
Some persons are worth remembering, some persons are world famous locally and some persons should be forgotten and never mentioned again.
Load More Replies...Milli Vanilli It was confirmed that they never sang on their own records.
How about Tom Selleck stealing truckfuls of water from a hydrant during the water shortage?
Mark Wahlberg but that was before we was famous- chased the black children down the street, hurling rocks and racial epithets, including “Kill the n-----s!”-during a field trip in Boston in 1986 and attack in 1988. But that was long time ago- just disappointed I ever learnt he did it.
My favourite one is when Ross said "I take thee Rachel" rather than Emily :)

Cheryl cole (then tweedy) racially attacking a black toilet attendant in a nightclub in Guildford (can't remember what it was called at the time. it was called Harpers when I was a teenager) and the media treat her like the nations sweetheart. I will always remember her as scrapping in nightclub toilets
The main difference (aside from the riches) between celebrities and non-celebrities is their overexposure. We can all be susceptible to their behavior but almost everything they do becomes public knowledge. If you worship any human or expect them to be perfect, you're in for a disappointment. Animals on the other hand...
Thank GOD no one mentioned Melanie Martinez. Timothy Heller is a compulsive liar.
Milli Vanilli confallegations that they never sang on their own records.
This article sucked. People make mistakes and they make amends. Don't drag up old c**p. Unnecessary.
