Behind all the glitz and glamour, some celebrities sometimes forget they are celebrities and, like normal people, they do bad things.
They may seem all amazing and downright awesome with their glittering awards and the heroic roles that they play in movies, but what we don’t see is that some of them have their own dark side that changed their lives forever, and perhaps changed the way we see them forever too.
Or did you forget that ever happened?
Here are 10 of the celebrity scandals that we couldn’t get enough of at the time, but have forgotten about …well, until now.
1. Winona Ryder Shoplifting
Best known for her roles in Beetlejuice, Heathers and Reality Bites, actress Winona Ryder was arrested after shoplifting over $5000 worth of goods from the Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills Dec. 12, 2001. She was caught on security cameras stuffing socks and accessories into a hat. She was convicted and sentenced to 480 hours of community service, and required to pay a fine and restitution.
2. Jude Law and the Nanny
