Celebrities Who Are Actually Insufferable Behind the Scenes

As it turns out, celebrities are not just like us. In fact, they're so, so much worse, as evidenced by these less-than-flattering experiences documented by fans over the years. While some stars may be known for their arrogance, others often fly under the radar. Buckle up, because this is going to be one wild ride down memory lane...

Guy Fieri

Guy Fieri stirred up some serious drama on his famous series Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. According to David Page, the show's producer on the Food Network, Fieri is homophobic, among a litany of other offenses. Page alleged that he once received a phone call from Fieri, who had just stormed out of a restaurant because he found out the owners were a gay couple.

Un-Fun Fieri

Fieri may seem like the kind of guy you'd love to hang out with on set, but apparently, his cheerful demeanor is all an act. Fieri "had ridiculous requests at all hours of the day," demanding his employees work late into the night and refusing to accept plane tickets with airlines he disliked. He would even rearrange shoots to make sure that his hair was properly bleached and coiffed. According to a former staffer on the series, "I don't think anyone actually liked him."

Charlize Theron

This South African actress clearly moved across the world to make it big, not to make friends. In 2014, Theron was in the same SoulCycle spin class as actress Tia Mowry, who approached her afterward to say hello. Theron rolled her eyes and said, "Oh my God."

A Tough Cookie

Theron has long been rumored as a difficult person to get along with, both personally and professionally. The Monster actress has been involved in celebrity beef with both Tobey McGuire and Tom Hardy, neither of whom enjoyed working alongside her. "Tobey and I had a bit of a rough time, yeah," she recalled during an interview with V Magazine.

Charlie Sheen

It's no secret that Charlie Sheen is terrible news. Once the highest-paid actor on television, Sheen's reputation was damaged by a number of public outbursts. Sheen was fired from Two and a Half Men after calling the producer a "turd" and wishing him "nothing but pain."

Too Difficult

Sheen claims that Hollywood blacklisted him after his ongoing downward spiral, which has resulted in a serious financial crisis for the actor, who was once making $1.8 million per episode. It is reported that Sheen has a debt of nearly $5 million in unpaid taxes.

Zooey Deschanel

Doe-eyed Zooey Deschanel is known for her portrayal of Jess Day on the long-running series New Girl—but now Hollywood won't touch the actress with a ten-foot pole. Deschanel may seem bright and bubbly, but fans and extras have reported some less-than-likable behavior.

Too Cool for Her Fans

Deschanel has consistently brushed off fans or ignored them entirely, and former co-stars have told the press that she will throw a full-blown tantrum over the slightest inconveniences. Obviously, everyone deserves to have boundaries, but it's important to maintain a healthy relationship with your fanbase and coworkers!

Naomi Campbell

Naomi Campbell isn't only one of the most famous supermodels in the world—she is also among the biggest divas. Her most notorious tantrum occurred in 1998 when she threw her phone at a personal assistant, but that wasn't Campbell's only offense. She has been convicted of assault on four separate occasions since then.

Too Many Outbursts

The runway queen's numerous violent outbursts were nearly all directed at her former employees, including a housekeeper who needed four stitches after Campbell threw a BlackBerry phone at her head. Aside from the people who worked for her, Campbell also beat two police officers as she was ejected from a British Airways flight, causing the airline to permanently ban her.

Gwyneth Paltrow

This Oscar-winning actress has made recent headlines for her work with Goop, a lifestyle brand that has come under fire for marketing scientifically unfounded health products at sky-high price points. Some of these items and treatments have not only been deemed medically unbeneficial but even actively harmful, such as a potentially fatal coffee enema that the brand promoted in 2017.

High-Maintenance

A particularly telling anecdote involving Paltrow: The actress-turned-lifestyle guru sat down at a Michelin-starred restaurant in London, and upon glancing at the menu, she loudly proclaimed, "I can't eat this stuff. Let's just go up to my suite and order room service." It has also been said that Paltrow demands her shower at the gym be washed and dried before she enters.

Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise's unhinged outbursts and controlling demeanor are no secret. Cruise has been at the center of plenty of media criticism. In 2005, he received backlash after calling Brooke Shields "irresponsible" for taking prescription medication to help alleviate some of her debilitating postpartum depression, going so far as to say that the medication was responsible for Shields' failing career.

Questionable Opinions

Cruise, a Scientologist, has also claimed that "psychiatry should be outlawed." Cruise's stance on the matter caused a rift between him and Steven Spielberg. Spielberg once mentioned the name of a doctor who prescribed psychiatric medication while in Cruise's presence; the doctor's office was later picketed by Scientologists, which infuriated the director.

Jennifer Lopez

While J-Lo is one of the biggest names in Hollywood, especially after the recent Bennifer revival, "Jenny from the block" can have quite the attitude. According to a variety of sources, Lopez often refuses to speak to service industry workers—including one flight attendant who had a particularly nasty experience with the actress.

Above All

The flight attendant allegedly asked Lopez what she wanted to drink during a flight, but the singer ignored him, turned to her assistant, and said, "Please tell him I'd like a Diet Coke and lime." Was such a simple and brief interaction really beneath her? Come on, J-Lo.

Jennifer Lawrence

For a while, J-Law was the sweetheart of the silver screen. Everyone was obsessed with her girl-next-door shtick, but Lawrence clearly didn't feel the same about her fans. According to fans who have seen the star out and about, she is allegedly quite rude to anyone who says hello and asks guards to keep them away from her.

Tough Outer Shell

Lawrence has claimed that her rudeness is an attempt to protect herself, saying that she acts impolitely as a defense mechanism. "I just, generally, once I enter a public place, I become incredibly rude," she said. "That's kind of like my only way of defending myself." Okay, Jennifer... there has to be a better way!

Kate Winslet

This Titanic star has a loving fanbase who has supported her at every step of the way throughout her lengthy and prolific career. When she was filming parts of Labor Day in the state of Massachusetts, her fans flocked to meet her, hoping to snap a picture to commemorate the day. They were seriously disappointed...

No Love for Her Fans

One day, while she was on set for filming, Winslet's fans eagerly awaited her arrival outside. It was rainy and cold, but they didn't care as long as they caught a glimpse of the actress. Finally, hours after they showed up, Winslet got out of her car to enter the secluded filming area without so much as glancing in their direction. What a letdown!

Ellen Degeneres

For decades, America idolized this famous talk show host. DeGeneres was loved for her silly dance breaks, generous gift-giving, and informative interviews with celebrities and regular people alike. Despite how fun it was to be Ellen's guest, being her staffer was a much more sour experience.

The Fame Got to Her Head

In 2020, a former employee came forward about what it was like to work for Ellen. They claimed that the daytime host treated those who worked beneath her like scum. The confession inspired others to come out with their own stories about Ellen's abusiveness. She is now set to step away from her talk show in 2022 after 19 seasons.

Cameron Diaz

Cameron Diaz's career has spanned decades. Her oeuvre includes The Mask, Charlie's Angels, and even Shrek as the voice of Princess Fiona. Many people adore her, but that seems to be an issue for this beloved starlet, who apparently loves nothing more than to explain to her fans why she doesn't want to give her an autograph.

Dismissing Fans

Even though Diaz might love to be in the limelight, she won't reciprocate her fans' affection, refusing both photos and autographs. On one occasion, Diaz told a fan, "If I did it for you, I'd have to do it for everyone." Her reasoning might make sense, but without her fans, Diaz would never be where she is today. She should show them a little gratitude.

Jon Hamm

With a face like that and acting skills to match, who wouldn't love Jon Hamm? Well, apparently Kathy Griffin! The comedian has landed herself in hot water on several occasions, but that doesn't mean she can't call out other celebs for their own issues.

Unkind

Apparently, Hamm and Griffin met at a party one night in Hollywood. When the two crossed paths, Hamm had asked Griffin why she was even at the event. He also reportedly told Griffin that her Emmy "isn't a real Emmy." Later, he stopped a conversation with her and Jack Nicholson to call her "too old." Rude!

Amy Schumer

Being a person in the public eye has its pitfalls. One misconception that people seem to harbor about their favorite stars is that they're always down for a laugh, but that is simply inaccurate. Comedian Amy Schumer had something to say after a rather strange encounter with a fan...

She Had A Moment

While in Greenville, South Carolina, a fan came up on Schumer. They were holding out a camera that was recording the encounter without Schumer's permission. Schumer was not happy to have been filmed without consent and blasted the fan on her Instagram for acting in such a way, even after she politely asked the man to stop recording her. "No more photos," she said.

Will Ferrell

Will Ferrell is known for his hilarious antics and quick-witted humor in films like Elf and Step Brothers. The Funny Or Die co-founder is all fun and games while in front of the camera, but is he the same behind the scenes?

No Off Button

According to insiders, Ferrell's sense of humor doesn't have an off button, no matter the audience. Some fans have said that Ferrell made some pretty aggressive jokes toward their mannerisms or appearance after asking for a quick hello. If you're a fan of Ferrell and plan to meet him in real life, you better toughen up first...

James Corden

Though he might seem plucky and lovable when performing on his late-night show, James Corden doesn't have a great reputation in the industry. Corden is known among his peers for being exceedingly arrogant. Once, when his order came out wrong, Corden exclaimed, "Don't you know who I am? I could buy you!" Not as jolly as he seems...

Shaun White

Shaun White is one of the most famous snowboarders in the world, and that's not just because of his talent. White has been accused of acting rude and entitled, having shut down entire snowboarding parks to be the only one there. A particularly nasty story about White is when he ditched sick kids from the Make-A-Wish Foundation that wanted to snowboard with him. Not only did he bail on the children, but he did it specifically to ride the half-pipe alone!

Johnny Depp

Johnny Depp has been in the headlines for some deeply disturbing reasons, as of late. In a not-so-surprising turn of events, Depp was revealed to be volatile and explosive with quite an extreme substance abuse problem. The actor's bodyguards have even filed several lawsuits against the actor for unpaid wages and a dysfunctional work environment. Depp was also sued by the location manager on City of Lies after punching him in the face... twice.

Kristen Stewart

K-Stew is by no means known for her cheeriness, but that's only because she's the kind of celebrity who doesn't seem to love being in the spotlight. During her time in the Twilight franchise, Stewart earned a reputation for being cold and unapproachable, which was only worsened after she was caught cheating on Robert Pattinson with the married director of Snow White and the Huntsman. Fortunately, Stewart has since matured, and seems to be doing quite well for herself!

Jonah Hill

Jonah Hill may look like a loveable teddy bear, but this funny guy is ice cold in interviews. In a 2013 interview, the interviewer accidentally called him Seth Rogen, and Hill responded, "That's a great way to start." For the remainder of the interview, Hill belittled the interviewer, calling their questions dumb and of little relevance. Years later, Ornella Fleury sat down with Hill and cracked a few jokes about his latest film, to which he replied, "I'm glad I came on this show to get ridiculed by your local weather girl."

DJ Khaled

DJ Khaled is one of the most famous producers in the world. Unfortunately, some witnesses say that his table manners are nowhere near as good as his beats. One fan recalled an anecdote from when he dined at a hotel restaurant: "DJ Khaled stayed at a hotel I was working at," said the fan, "He went to one of the restaurants in the hotel and I was told by one of the servers who served him that he was a huge d*** and complained about everything." Yeesh! We don't need "another one" with an attitude like that.

M. Night Shyamalan

Director M. Night Shyamalan has never had a great reputation in Hollywood; he is notoriously difficult to work with. "I was an extra in one of his movies, and he made a huge show of walking around and chatting up all the women," one actress said. "Couldn't be bothered to look the men in the eyes." It has also been said that Shyamalan is both a nightmare to serve at restaurants and a bad tipper. Yikes.

Tobey Maguire

Just because he's portrayed a superhero, it doesn't mean that Tobey Maguire is actually a good person. The actor made headlines in 2014 when a poker hostess called him out for his rudeness at the table. She described Spider-Man as the "worst tipper" and a "sore loser." He even asked the hostess to "bark like a seal who wants a fish" in exchange for a thousand-dollar chip. Gross behavior!

Spike Lee

Spike Lee may be an incredible director, but he hasn't exactly earned the best reputation among his supporters. Fans have said that he's visited their college to lecture, only to offer boring, unenthused speeches about his craft. One fan even disclosed that Lee called the audience "rednecks and racists." Another claimed that Lee cut his speech an hour short and was rude to anyone who asked questions.

Ben Stiller

Known for playing hilarious yet neurotic characters, Ben Stiller is completely different in real life. Apparently, Stiller doesn't have a funny bone in his body. He is also said to be egotistical and unreasonable. On the set of Meet the Fockers, Stiller earned himself the nickname "Little Focker," since he wasn't content unless he was being attended to constantly. He even threw tantrums until he got his way.

Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts is quite an icon from the rom-com genre. Despite this, the actress has made a few bad impressions. Some people criticized the star after she supposedly stopped guests from worshipping in a temple so she could shoot Eat Pray Love on her own time. In recent years, Roberts has definitely ditched the "America's sweetheart" title.

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon may be everyone's favorite good girl, but in 2013, the Legally Blonde actress went viral over her arrest in 2013. "Do you know my name?" she asked the traffic cop who pulled her over. "You're about to find out who I am. You're about to be on national news." Sources say that Witherspoon wears sunglasses to prevent her staff from making direct eye contact with her.

Gordon Ramsay

It may not come as much of a surprise that Gordon Ramsay likes to berate people off-screen, too. His foul-mouthed persona isn't as much of an act as one might believe. The former assistant manager at Ramsay's London-based restaurant Maze explained that she once heard Ramsay chew out his assistant over the phone over chairs that had been ordered for a Christmas Eve dinner. "They're so terrible I wouldn’t throw them on a... bonfire!" he screamed.

Elisabeth Moss

Elisabeth Moss rose to fame for her role in The Handmaid's Tale. You'd think that after all these years, the actress has been humbled, right? Wrong. One fan recalled their uncomfortable interaction at a party: "I was just making quick small talk whilst waiting for my friend when one of her friends walked past mid-sentence and she reached out to her and said quite loudly, 'Ugh, take me with you, I'm so bored,'" the fan stated. "It was so unbelievably rude and I haven’t shaken my dislike for her since then!"

Pierce Brosnan

According to James Corden, Pierce Brosnan's smile is the only nice thing about him. The talk show host recounted an experience he had with the actor to Khloe Kardashian on The Late Late Show. In 2017, Corden and Brosnan were both guests at a U2 concert. Corden admitted that he was a bit starstruck at first, but Brosnan pushed past him in the crowd without a second glance. Yikes! They warn that you should never meet your heroes...

Orlando Bloom

Orlando Bloom has always been perceived as a laid-back, pleasant guy. Fans were shocked to see a strange outburst from him in 2018. Bloom was performing in a play when he stopped the performance to scold an audience member who was holding an electronic tablet in her hands. He assumed that she was recording his work and screamed at her to put the tablet away. When she refused, he stormed off the stage. According to the fan and those around her, she had been using the tablet to block an air duct that was blowing cold air on her. 

Liv Tyler

Liv Tyler, the daughter of Steven Tyler, thinks that having a famous father makes her better than other people. "I saw Liv Tyler walk into an art exhibit at the MOMA that was one person at a time," said a fan. "The wait was literally 4 to 5 hours to get in and people would show up hours before the gallery opened to see it. When Liv Tyler walked in she cut in front of everyone and told the guard that she was next." Ultimately, he denied her, and she threw a huge fit.

Kevin James

Even Paul Blart Mall Cop has an attitude. Goofball Kevin James has made audiences laugh for years, but behind the scenes, rumor has it this funny guy is not all laughs. One unlucky server discovered this while on the job. "Buddy of mine was a waiter for him and [he] asked him if he wanted anything to drink," said one commenter on Reddit. "Kevin responds, 'You were told not to speak to me.' Apparently, his guards tell all the waiters to stay a distance from him."

Steven Seagal

It's no secret that Steven Seagal doesn't have the best reputation on set. However, this one goes way far beyond few wayward comments. Seagal reportedly sent a stuntman to the hospital for surgery due to his recklessness. Instead of throwing the stuntman to his prepared mark, the actor "drove the guy's top teeth through a portion that wasn't prepared to break. This broke the stuntman's maxilla (upper jaw) and knocked out most of his teeth." Since then, the stuntman has gone through multiple surgeries to repair his jaw.

Eric Roberts

Apparently, Julia Roberts isn't the only member of the Roberts family whose head has gotten bigger after being churned through Tinsel Town. Despite being so well off that he's basically set for life, Roberts still expects his fans to pay for his time and attention, charging $50 for a photograph or autograph. We would be surprised if he's made a dime...

Iggy Azalea

The Aussie star is known for having thick skin and quick wit to match. She's had a lot of hate in her time on the stage and a lot of beef with other famous artists. She's also known for participating in social media fights among random non-celebrities. A lot of people seem to have issues with her... Nowadays, she's further off the radar, mainly because she butts heads with almost everyone on social media, fans and other celebrities alike. She's had fights with stars like Zayn Milk, RuPaul, and Azealia Banks (which isn't hard to do, really).

William Shatner

Anyone who has met William Shatner in real life can attest that Captain Kirk is not as pleasant as one might think. Over the years, dozens have reported being disappointed by their hero. "I once saw William Shatner charge a kid $100 for an autograph because he was asking outside of the fan expo he was attending," recalled one former fan, "and then I heard a rumor he was charging $100 inside anyways." Clearly, Shatner does not care about the people who support him.

Hilary Duff

Lizzie McGuire fans grew up with Hilary Duff and her unforgettable life lessons. The Disney show helped create her entire career, including a popular music stint with some seriously infectious hits. But she wasn't always perfect... Apparently, Duff is known for having a bit of a sharp tongue. She's always armed with some serious gossip, having had problems in the past with celebs like Chris Brown, Karrueche Tran, and Faye Dunaway because of her big mouth! She basically called Faye Dunaway old-looking after the actress made a comment on Duff's acting ability. That's a low blow for actors... 

Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock's talent knows no limits, having starred in blockbuster hits like Miss Congeniality, The Blind Side, and Bird Box. Bullock is usually depicted as a down-to-earth person, but that's not always the case. Bullock is known for denying her fans autographs and even covering up her face when fans try to snap a photo together. Once, she even rejected a fan who was confined to a wheelchair, and the media had a total field day.

Mike Myers

From Austin Powers to Wayne's World, Mike Meyers' older work is still being talked about to this day—but this actor's goofy demeanor didn't translate off-screen. People who worked alongside Meyers recalled him to be quite the diva. He had a list of daily demands to make sure that his time was being used efficiently. Some employees said that Meyers even made them put a tent over his trailer so that no one could tell when he was entering or leaving. What a weirdo!

Michael Jordan

This basketball legend has been a hero to millions throughout his career. Even people who don't consider themselves fans of the sport know his name. As it turns out, not even other celebs get special treatment with Michael Jordan. When rapper Chamillionaire ended up meeting his idol one night, he wanted a photo to remember the moment, but Jordan said he would only take one for a cool $15,000. Ouch.

John Cusack

John Cusack isn't a very nice guy—in fact, the Sixteen Candles actor is actually hated by the entire city of Chicago. Cusack has an entire subreddit thread dedicated to interactions with him, and almost all of them are negative. He's often spotted riding his motorcycle around town, and sometimes flipping off those who recognize him. "Cusack annoys me to no end," one Redditor wrote. "I work at a Lube 'n Tire shop near River North. Sometimes John brings his cars in to get tuned up. He is far and beyond the typical annoying customer who wants to hover near you or stare while you do your work."

Mandy Moore

This beloved actress might surprise you with her prickly side. Moore accidentally bumped into someone while grocery shopping one day, causing him to spill his groceries all over the floor. Instead of helping the man to pick them up, she stood there and complained that he was wasting her time. Well, Mandy, if you'd helped to clean up the mess, it would have gone faster!

Dan Akyroyd

Saturday Night Live and Ghostbusters star Dan Akyroyd has been in the public eye for long enough to know that safety is a number one priority for famous celebrities. For this purpose, Akyroyd makes sure to bring his bodyguards with him wherever he goes, and apparently, they're quite intimidating! Others have said that the actor can be rude to service industry workers.

Rachael Ray

Rachael Ray is one of the most well-known daytime talk show hosts out there. She can whip up some incredible dishes in the kitchen and make hilarious banter with her celebrity guests. Despite this, Ray can get harsh with her staff members, fans, and even guests. At one point, she apparently told a member of her staff, "I need stupid people to not talk to me." That's not the sweet celebrity chef that we met on television!

Chevy Chase

Chevy Chase is notoriously hard to work with, and his alcohol problem makes things even worse. Many of Chase's costars on Community despised him, who would purposefully ruin everyone's day on set by belittling the rest of the cast. He would try to pick out their flaws and mock their appearances. There's a reason you haven't seen much of him, recently...

Jerry Seinfeld

In the 1990s, Seinfeld defined the future of the sitcom comedy genre. Naturally, the fame went to Jerry Seinfeld's head over the years. According to a handful of witnesses, Jerry was caught in an awkward exchange between himself and pop sensation Kesha. When the singer tried to approach the comedian for a hug, he replied, "No, thanks," and put his hand between them. Seinfeld thought he was too good for her!

Jamie Foxx

This Django star is usually composed while in front of the lens, but sometimes the facade cracks. Apparently, Foxx stormed out of an interview after someone wanted to discuss his relationship with actress Katie Holmes. Even though it's unprofessional to walk out on an interviewer, we can't entirely blame him for that one... what an invasive question!

Adam Levine

A lot of music fans have mixed feelings about this Maroon 5 frontman. Levine was one of the main judges for The Voice and his friendship with Blake Shelton was both hilarious and adorable, but looks can be deceiving. Levine has confessed that his desire for attention has burned some bridges. Apparently, the singer will refuse to give out his autograph to anyone he doesn't consider attractive. That's a little shallow...

Topher Grace

Topher Grace is best known for playing Eric Foreman on That '70s Show, but his reputation certainly precedes him. After abruptly leaving the show before it was finished, the actor's co-stars called him rude and arrogant. Surprisingly, their words made an impact. Over the years, Grace has tried to turn things around, and he's slowly succeeding. These days, fans call him "a stand-up guy" and his co-stars only have nice things to say about him. Other celebs should learn from his behavior!

Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood is best known for winning American Idol back in 2005, which jump-started her career as a country superstar. Unfortunately, her sweetness might just be for show... Underwood has admitted that she can be quite selfish from time to time. She sometimes finds herself regretting not thanking people, or feeling bad about telling presenters not to goof up her entrance on television. At least she's aware of it, but the next step is actually improving as a person.

Ashton Kutcher

That 70s Show star and philanthropist Ashton Kutcher has made an excellent example out of his career. He's not one for flaunting the luxuries of celeb life and dedicates a lot of his time to helping children in need. Still, Kathy Griffin had a bit of a problem with him when they were working on a project together. According to the comedian, she and Ashton were hosting an event, but Kutcher wasn't keen on listening to her. He jumped at the chance to snub Griffin, even interrupting an important conversation between her and P. Diddy!

Neil deGrasse Tyson

Neil deGrasse Tyson built up a dedicated fanbase across the globe and managed to get kids interested in science and space. Although Tyson is grateful for his fans, a club appearance for the astrophysicist costs upwards of $85,000, and that's only for a few hours. Many of the venues have agreed to pay his fee so he can talk about time and space for a little while, but a lot of fans see that as selling out.

Rihanna

Everybody loves Rihanna, and why wouldn't they? Her music, her makeup brand, her looks... it's the whole package. Back in the day, Rihanna was known for her snarky comebacks and silly attitude on social media. Things took a turn for the worse when she made fun of a fan who tried to recreate one of her iconic looks for a prom photo. The 16-year-old was definitely not expecting her idol to make fun of her, and Rih's fans were disappointed with her actions.

Mariah Carey

Everyone knows that Mariah Carey can be a bit of a diva when it comes to her performances. She's built her entire career on being a drama queen! During a showcase on Good Morning America, Carey snarkily told a backup singer to stop "covering up" her lines. Many people said that it was because she didn't want anyone else to take her spotlight...

Christian Bale

Christian Bale's roles in films like Batman and American Psycho have definitely painted him as a tightly wound guy. In 2009, a video surfaced in which Bale went on an explicit rant at Terminator Salvation director of photography Shane Hurlbut when the latter walked into Bale's eyeline during a take. After this incident, the actor was required to apologize profusely. Later, Bale allegedly yelled at young adoring fans and made them cry tears of disappointment. His career tanked quite a bit after this PR nightmare...

Ariana Grande

This Nickelodeon star-turned-pop sensation has had her fair share of issues in the limelight. Remember when she licked a donut then put it back? Yeah, not the best impression. Many fans might recall Grande's disastrous contest-winning meet and greet session in 2013. The singer only spent around 20 seconds with the contest winners before going back into her dressing room. Her team cited it as a "safety hazard" but the fans involved said that she just didn't want to speak to her followers.

Christina Aguilera

Xtina is best known for her unforgettable voice. She's been in the limelight since she was a teenager, but sometimes, she acts like she hasn't matured at all. Aguilera once made an entire store close down for an entire day just so she could shop there, which is sadly normal for very famous celebs like her. Even worse, she also made the staff on the clock stay out of the store while she looked so that she wouldn't be "bothered" by the masses.

Justin Bieber

This Canadian pop star is no stranger to negative media coverage. When J-Biebs was younger, he had a memorable rebellious streak that did some serious damage to his public image. Bieber used to be the talk of the town until he decided to spend his time spitting off balconies, spitting on fans, peeing in restaurant buckets, and yelling at audience members who wouldn't be silent during his shows. These days, the married man seems to have calmed down quite a bit.

Catherine Zeta-Jones

Honestly, Catherine Zeta-Jones doesn't really have much of a personality when she's off-screen, confining most public knowledge about her to what she shares in interviews. However, according to some eyewitnesses, she once told an 8-year-old fan who wanted to be an actress that she was "pretty enough, I suppose" for the job. It's not all about looks, but Zeta-Jones apparently needed to remind her young fan that appearances are what matter in this industry.
