8 Insane Outbursts That Got Celebrities In Serious Trouble

1. Jonah Hill

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLUhG-Kz6Qc It's not like the Superbad and 21 Jump Street star to get involved in media controversies, due to his amiable and generally thoughtful persona, but the paparazzi just has a way of getting under even the best of people's skin like no-one else. In early June, just before 22 Jump Street was due for release, Hill was accosted by a paparazzo with a camera and respond by telling him to "suck my d**k, faggot." This is especially problematic, given that the film he was promoting has a scene in which Channing Tatum addresses the problematic use of exactly that f-word and why people shouldn't say it. Hill's directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller expressed disappointment at their star's outburst and said they knew he wasn't really like that. The actor made various apologies on live TV and said that he hoped people could learn from his mistakes and use him as the example of how not to act, which is about the best way he could have dealt with it. Apart from, you know, not saying the thing in the first place. What do you think? Are these some of the worst offenders, or do you think these are nothing compared to some even more notorious celebrities? Let us know in the comments!
