Top Ten: Disgraced Celebs
Behaving terribly and making a spectacle of yourself is all part and parcel of being a celebrity. Here's a rundown of the worst rogues and rascals to have appalled and delighted us.
10: Vinnie Jones
Britain's foremost hard man was severely ticked off in 2003 after slapping a fellow plane passenger and threatening to have the whole crew murdered. Tsk, tsk Vinnie.
9: Danniella Westbrook
She made her name in EastEnders but Danniella was soon known more for her drug habit than her acting skills. The publicity peaked when pictures of her now notorious nose were splashed across the tabloids.
8: Kelsey Grammar
It sounds unlikely, but the man who gave us the impeccable, gentlemanly Dr Frasier Crane almost destroyed himself with drink. Luckily, he checked into rehab in 1996 after smashing his car and being arrested for drink driving.
7: Christian Slater
One of Hollywood's most reliable renegades served a short jail term after going oddly berserk during a party in 1997. Not content to use his fists, Slater actually bit his victim on the belly during the scuffle. Down, boy!
6: Tonya Harding
Tonya Harding's figure skating career came crashing down when her ex-husband hired a thug to assault a skating rival in 1994. Implicated in the plot, Tonya was banned from the sport and has since become a boxer!
5: Angus Deayton
Hislop, Merton and the nation in general had a field day when Angus Deayton's drug-addled exploits with a call girl exploded into the news. Tut tut, Angus!
4: George Michael
In 1998 a pop icon went to the toilet and became a tabloid sensation. But George Michael made light of his conviction for lewd conduct by cavorting around in a cop uniform during an ultra-camp music video.
3: Winona Ryder
She claimed she was 'researching' for a film role, but the courts felt otherwise after Winona Ryder was caught stealing clothes from a department store in 2001. Honestly, it's not as if she can't afford it!
2: Robert Downey Jnr
Handsome, talented Robert Downey Jnr's infamous taste for drugs was summed up by his comment that: 'It's like I've got a gun in my mouth, with my finger on the trigger, and I like the taste of gun metal.'
1: Hugh Grant
The daddy of all celebrity scandals erupted in 1995 when the impeccable darling of British cinema went kerb-crawling on the streets of LA. The most famous police photo of all time was the shameful result!
