49 Celebrities Who Sabotaged Their Own Fame in Shocking Ways
We’re all aware of Charlie Sheen. Although still a legend, topped the cake of ruining it all within a brief moment.. He couldn’t keep his d**k in his pants, and his a*******n spiraled QUICK.
Lena Dunham.
And she dragged quite a bit of Girls cast down with her (d***s, hard time getting other gigs, etc). Girl basically had a career funded and served to her on a silver platter, and couldn’t keep her mouth shut, be self-aware for two seconds at a time, or stay away from d***s.
She’s Hannah Horvac in real life. She literally wrote and played herself – I don’t think she anticipated people thinking it was parody or cringe-humor. I think she just went along with it and slowly it ate away at her.
Mara Wilson, although, to be fair, she didn’t tank her own career. She was a cute kid and a very successful child actress, but she grew up looking like an average person, instead of someone who could be cast as a s*x symbol… and just stopped getting work.
So she got a college degree at NYU and I think she does smaller stuff – voice overs, podcasts like Nightvale. Had a small part on “Broad City.” She writes, basically. And she wrote a great piece about child stardom and what chaos it is. Not just on her behalf, but looking at people like Amanda Bynes.
She tweets, she’s written great pieces about child stardom, and she’s just an awesome person
She wrote an autobiography I have yet to read but it’s amazing to hear a child star write so candidly about having to give up on film, not because of “bad choices” or self-indulgence, but because they got tired of being cast as the “fat ugly friend”. It’s sobering stuff.
T.I. when he decided to take to the news and say that he has his daughter’s gynecologist perform a virginity test, or assure him of her virginity, each time he takes her there. This was when his daughter was 18.
Roseanne Barr. She managed to live through her anthem fiasco only to have her reboot cancelled and replaced due to some racist tweets.
I haven’t heard much about the replacement show, but I feel like that means it isn’t or wasn’t doing so hot.
David Icke in 1991. He was a household name, ex-Coventry goalkeeper, BBC sports commentator. An the Terry Wogan show, in full view of the nation, believes he is the son of God and that the world will soon be obliterated by earthquakes and tsunami. Taken in by a Russian forgery, “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” (itself no more than a criticism of Napoleon III with the names clumsily altered to refer to “The Jews” instead of “Napoleon III”), he believed that a secret group of alien reptilian humanoids called the Babylonian Brotherhood created and controls humanity, and that many prominent figures are reptilian, including George W. Bush, Queen Elizabeth II, Kris Kristofferson, and Boxcar Willie.
In recent years he has degenerated into little more than an anti-semitic neo-N**i.
Paula Deen…..Her deposition said enough.
EDIT: Didn’t asnwer the second question the first time.
Lance Armstrong, the cyclist.
He cheated for all of his Tour de France titles.
He is now enlisted as a cheater.
Nuff said.
Steve Rannazzisi. Lied about being in the world trade center on 9/11.
Also, Jan-Michael Vincent. Was a super good looking actor in the 80s that got a little too into d***s.
I dont know if he thanked his career or not but Fankie Muniz kinda disappeared after Malcom in the middle.
Ezra Miller was gaining popularity recently, but then he got in a physical fight with a fan and now I can’t say I see him being able to do much in Hollywood after that.
Ari Shaffer made fun of Kobe Bryant after he died and now people like Joe Rogan and Tom Segura are keeping distance.
Justin Lee Collins.
For those who don’t know he was a comedian in the UK, he was known for doing The Friday Night Project with Alan Carr, and presented an Americas home videos type show, Oops TV.
In 2011 his wife came out about him ab**ing her. She also had some audio of him accusing her of looking at other men. He pleaded guilty and hasn’t done any big things since. Last I heard he’s doing video shout outs for £25.
I don’t know if he’s a celebrity. I thought of Roman Polanski. He can’t work or live in the U.S. due to a s*x a***e case. He can’t direct movies in the U.S. He was married to the actress Sharon Tate. RIP Sharon.
Alexander Hamilton. He was a d**n genius and a respected and honest lawyer and politician, until he had an affair with another woman who was not his wife and made it public in a pamphlet called ‘The Reynolds Pamphlet’, ruining his political career forever.
Aaron Hernandez: k****d someone while playing for the New England Patriots, died in prison
Chris Benoit: k****d his wife, son, then himself, had his entire wrestling legacy ruined
