Hollywood Biggest Celebrity Scandal

Tim Allen arrested for dealing cocaine, 1978 Before he became everyone’s favorite Santa Clause (or the handy tool man, or Buzz Lightyear), Tim Allen was caught dealing drugs—specifically cocaine. He was arrested for possession of nearly a pound-and-a-half of cocaine at the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International airport in Michigan in 1978. He spent 28 months in a federal prison, as opposed to a life sentence, for giving up the names of other drug offenders.

Marvin Gaye murdered by his father, 1984 The soul singer of the 80s, known as the Prince of Motown, was shot and killed by his father, Rev. Marvin Gay Sr. after an altercation. (Note: The "e" was added to the singer's stage name.) Gaye's brother Frankie, reportedly held him in his final moments. In his memoir, Frankie wrote that his brother's last words were, "I got what I wanted…I couldn’t do it myself, so I made him do it."

Rob Lowe made a sex tape with a 16-year-old, 1988 A video of the then-24-year-old Parks and Rec star having sex with two women was reportedly recorded the night before the 1988 Democratic National Convention in Atlanta. (Side note: Lowe was largely into politics before his acting career took off.) When it surfaced, it was discovered that one of the girls was only 16 years old. Her mother slapped him with a civil lawsuit, and he ended up settling, paying her a large sum of money and doing 20 hours of community service.

Michael Jackson accused of sexual assault, 1993 In 1993, Michael Jackson was accused of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old boy named Jordan Chandler. After the accusations went public, Jackson cancelled his tour due to health issues from the scandal. He later settled the case, paying the Chandlers $23,000.

O.J. Simpson arrested for the murder of his wife, 1994 Football star O.J. Simpson was arrested for the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ronald Goldman, following a now-iconic car chase through Los Angeles. After 15 months in jail, Simpson was famously acquitted of both counts, thanks in part to his lawyer's "if the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit" line. In 2008, 13 years later, Simpson was convicted of robbery and kidnapping for a separate incident.

Hugh Grant caught with a prostitute, 1995 In 1995, Hugh Grant paid a sex worker to give him a blow job on the Sunset Strip but the two were found by police and the Four Weddings and a Funeral actor was arrested for "lewd conduct" in a public place. At the time of his arrest, he was with his longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley, who tried to work through the incident. She ended up leaving Grant five years later.

Prince Charles and Princess Diana divorce, 1996 After years of marital strain and four years of separation, Prince Charles and Princess Diana formally divorced in August of 1996. Their marriage was tainted by controversy, especially at the end, with both sides cheating—Charles most famously with long-time love and now-wife, Camilla Parker Bowels. As the future King of England, Charles' status as a divorcee is particularly scandalous.

Princess Diana killed in a car accident, 1997 Less than a year after she and Prince Charles got divorced, Princess Diana was killed in a car accident in Paris after being chased by paparazzi—and it was rumored that the future king planned her death. Later a letter from the princess to her former butler was discovered. In it she wrote that she felt Charles was setting up an incident so he could marry Tiggy, the former nanny of Princes William and Harry, but many believe the note was forged and an inquest concluded in 2008 found no wrongdoing on the part of the royal family.

Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky made public, 1998 In 1995, former President Bill Clinton began having an affair with a then-21-year-old Monica Lewinsky, who was an unpaid White House intern. The huge scandal was made public in 1998, and Clinton denied that he had "sexual relations" with Lewinsky. He later admitted that he did have an affair with her, which contributed to his impeachment in 1999.

Marilyn Manson's music blamed for the Columbine shooting, 1999 After one of the deadliest schools shootings—in which two seniors murdered 12 students and one teacher at Columbine High School—people pointed the finger at musician Marilyn Manson. It was thought that the two students loved Manson and his music, and it was said that the singer's songs inspired them to carry out the tragic act. The rumor was proven false, but Manson's reputation was hurt badly from the reports.

Winona Ryder arrested for shoplifting, 2001 In 2001, the Stranger Things actress was caught stealing over $5,560 worth of merchandise from a Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills, California. She reportedly ripped tags off of clothing items and stashed them in her bag. Ryder later spun the incident positively, telling Daily Mail, "In a weird way, it was almost like the best thing that could have happened, because I’d never asked myself the question before of, Is it okay if I’m not going to act? Is there anything else? because that was all that I really knew."

R. Kelly arrested for child pornography, 2002 R. Kelly was indicted on 21 counts of child pornography after a tape showing him having sex with and urinating on an underage woman was sent to the Chicago Sun Times. He plead not guilty to all charges. Since, dozens of women have claimed to have been held in a sex cult by the singer. The hashtag #MuteRKelly started spreading recently, and Spotify was the first company to actually take action.

Madonna and Britney Spears kissed on stage, 2003 During a 2003 MTV Video Music Award performance, Britney Spears and Madonna shocked everyone when they kissed on stage. Christina Aguilera was performing with them, too, and got a smooch from Madonna, but the cameras switched shots and their kiss wasn't televised. Videographers instead cut to a shot of Justin Timberlake's shocked face.

Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston announced their divorce, 2005 In January 2005, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston made a shocking joint statement that revealed they were breaking up. "We would like to announce that after seven years together we have decided to formally separate. For those who follow these sorts of things, we would like to explain that our separation is not the result of any of the speculation reported by the tabloid media," they said in the statement. "This decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration," the statement continued. "We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another. We ask in advance for your kindness and sensitivity in the coming months." It was thought that their divorce was the result of the scandalous affair Pitt had with Angelina Jolie while filming the movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

Britney Spears shaved her head, 2007 Also in 2007: Britney Spears shaved off all her hair. The "Oops I Did It Again" singer hit rock bottom, beating up a photographer's car with an umbrella just days after going at her head with a buzz cutter. That year was a rough year for Spears, and it started the famous meme: "If Britney Spears can make it through 2007, then I can make it through today."

Kim Kardashian's sex tape made public, 2007 Before she was married to Kanye West, Kim Kardashian was in a serious relationship with another singer: Willie "Ray J" Norwood. The couple reportedly filmed a sex tape back in 2002 during a trip to Cabo, Mexico, and it was released to the public five years later when Kim began getting more media attention for being friends with Paris Hilton (who also has a sex tape). Kim sued in an attempt to prevent the 41-minute film from being accessible, but it still found its way to the internet.

Heath Ledger found dead, 2008 In 2008, the 10 Things I Hate About You actor was found dead in his bed in New York city. The NYC Medical Examiner's Office later determined that the cause of death was an accidental overdose of prescription painkillers, including anti-anxiety meds and sleeping pills. The Dark Knight, starring Ledger as the Joker, was released that summer in theaters, and his performance won him a posthumous Oscar.

Chris Brown assaulted Rihanna, 2009 Back in 2009, Chris Brown beat up then-girlfriend Rihanna after she discovered a text message from one of Brown's former flames. The "Forever" singer reportedly punched her in the face, repeatedly bit her, and choked her, but not to the point of unconsciousness. In a 20/20 interview, Rihanna opened up about the incident. "It was ugly," she said. "I fended him off with my feet…but it was not like, it was not like a fight with each other. I just…I really just wanted it to stop."

Michael Jackson killed, 2009 Michael Jackson was found dead on June 25, 2009. The cause? Surgical anesthetic Propofol, which was given to him by his personal doctor, Conrad Murray. Murray claimed to be injecting the King of Pop with the drug as a treatment for his insomnia. Jackson's death was ruled a homicide, and Murray blamed for negligent monitoring. He spent two years in jail for involuntary manslaughter.

Whitney Houston found dead in a bathtub, 2012 The world was shocked when Whitney Houston was found dead in a bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in 2012. An autopsy revealed that the singer died from accidental drowning. Her body was found with numerous drugs in it, including cocaine, marijuana, Xanax, and Benadryl. Houston had heart disease, so it is thought that the disease mixed with cocaine contributed to her death.

Solange Knowles gets into elevator fight with Jay Z, 2014 Following the 2014 Met Gala, leaked surveillance video captured Solange Knowles physically fighting her brother-in-law Jay Z in an elevator at the Standard Hotel in New York City. Although there was no shortage of speculation on the internet, the Carter-Knowles family gave little information as to what actually went down. “They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family,” they said in a statement given to the Associated Press. Although the family has remained incredibly mum’s the word on the situation, Jay Z broke his silence in 2017 to share that he and Solange truly have moved on. "We had one disagreement ever. Before and after, we've been cool. She's like my sister. I will protect her. That's my sister, not my sister-in-law. My sister. Period,” he said during an appearance on Rap Radar.

30 Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, and Taylor Swift feud over "Famous" lyrics, 2016 Kanye’s infamous “I’mma let you finish” at the 2008 Video Music Awards turned out to only be the beginning of his beef with Taylor Swift. In 2016, Kanye released the song “Famous” on his The Life of Pablo album, which explicitly mentions Swift in the opening: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why? I made that bitch famous/Goddamn, I made that bitch famous.” Although Swift claimed she didn’t know about the song, Kim Kardashian decided to interject on her husband’s behalf. In a series of Snapchats, Kardashian leaked a recorded phone call between Kanye and Swift—Kanye shares a clip of the song for Swift’s approval, and the singer is heard saying, “Yeah, I mean, what's dope about the line is it's very tongue in cheek either way. And I really appreciate you telling me about it, that's really nice.” Swift’s response to the Snapchats? The singer claimed Kanye never shared the most offensive part of the lyrics with her. “Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that bitch’ in his song? It doesn’t exist because it never happened. You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called ‘that bitch’ in front of the entire world,” she wrote on Instagram. To this day, the feud still remains a case of he-said-she-said.

Harvey Weinstein accused of sexual assault, 2017 On October 5, 2017, Ashley Judd accused longtime movie mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment—a bombshell accusation that led to the historical Time's Up and #MeToo movements. Since the first allegations, a number of other actresses have come forward with their stories of being sexually harassed or assaulted by Weinstein. After eight months, he finally turned himself in to police in New York City.

20-year-old Kylie Jenner quietly gives birth to first child, 2018 After months of speculation, an uncharacteristically quiet Kylie Jenner took to Instagram to share that she had given birth to a baby girl on February 1. Although news of her reported pregnancy with boyfriend Travis Scott leaked in September 2017, the reality star chose to stay quiet through all nine months, never confirming the news. “I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark through all the assumptions. I understand you’re used to me bringing you along on all my journeys. My pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world,” she wrote in an Instagram post announcing the news. The 20-year-old also released a home video, “To Our Daughter,” that gave fans a peek at her hidden pregnancy.

Princess Diana's phone calls with her lover, James Gilbey, released, 1992 In 1992 The Sun leaked a transcript of Princess Diana's secret phone calls with her lover, James Gilbey. Diana was still married to Prince Charles at the time, who was also reportedly having an affair of his own with now-wife Camila Parker-Bowles. Read the full article

When it comes to playing the role of an idiot, Donald Trump, Jr. is certainly no Prince Myshkin. He doesn’t even rise to the level of Faulkner’s Benjy Compson. Still, it may be possible to squeeze out a little bit of empathy for the man-child of Park Avenue.

Yes, I know, in most respects Micro-Donald is an utterly unappetizing specimen of humanity, who flies around the planet slaughtering rare species (such as this endangered leopard) for bloody selfies. But the boy is the progeny of Donald Trump and who among us would want to endure the torments of that brand of child-rearing? By all accounts, Trump’s parenting skills were stern, cold and brutal. There were no games of catch in Central Park, no camping trips to the Adirondacks, no help with homework.

“When I spent time with my father it wasn’t playing ball in the backyard,” Donnie told the New York Times in 2010. “I came to his office and listened to him do business or sat in on meetings.”

For most of Donnie’s childhood, he rarely saw his father or mother. He was nurtured by Irish nannies and Ivana’s mother and then shipped off to The Hill, a boarding school for the children of elites in Potsdown, Pennsylvania.

Don’s sister Ivanka, whom Trump seems smitten by, described what it was like when Daddy decided to play his satyr-like pranks with the kids, often on the ski slopes in Aspen. “We were sort of bred to be competitive,” Ivanka recalled. “Dad encourages it. I remember skiing with him and we were racing. I was ahead, and he reached his ski pole out and pulled me back.” But for the grace of Odin, Ivanka, Eric and Don could have ended up as slopekill like that other wayward scion Michael Kennedy.

When Micro-Donald was twelve, he had to endure the tabloid spectacle of his father excoriating his mother, Ivana, in the press, while squiring the Georgia beauty queen Marla Maples. Later, he learned that his mother had accused his father of sexually assaulting her (an accusation later withdrawn as part of a legal settlement.) For years afterwards, the son kept himself at a chilly distance from his despotic father. Many children raised in similarly frigid circumstances development so-called “attachment disorders” and end up torturing animals. Donald Jr. started killing them.

Then when young Donald followed his father’s footsteps to the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, a thawing in relations ensued. Sadly, this familial warming proved more of a short-term heat spell rather than a true change in climate. According to an account from Micro-Donald’s dorm-mate, a man called Scott Melker, there came a time when word spread through the dorm that Donald Trump himself would be visiting to take his son to a Yankees game. Many of the dorm’s residents crowded together near young Donald’s room to catch a glimpse of the tycoon.

Daddy Trump cut his way through the crowd of students and knocked on Micro-Donald’s door. Donnie answered with a smile, proudly wearing his Yankee jersey. This fashion crime enraged Trump, who slapped Donnie so hard in the face that his son crumpled to the floor. The father looked down on his fallen son and, according to Melker, sneered: “Put on a suit and meet me outside.”

His friends noticed a change in Donnie after that brutal interaction with good old dad. He started drowning his shame with booze and fed his gnawing rage by blasting away at ungulates and predators. After graduation, Micro-Donald drifted away from Manhattan to Colorado, where he worked for some time as a bartender. In 20o1, he was busted for public drunkenness in New Orleans.

But like many neglected and abused children, Micro-Donald soon headed back east, seeking approval and affection from his icy and tyrannical father. “To be fairly candid,” Donnie told New Yorkmagazine in 2004. “I used to drink a lot and party pretty hard, and it wasn’t something that I was particularly good at. I mean, I was good at it, but I couldn’t do it in moderation. About two years ago, I quit drinking entirely. I have too much of an opportunity to make something of myself, be successful in my own right. Why blow it?”

For the next few years, Micro-Donald toiled in the anterooms of Trump Tower working on minor real estate deals, making occasional appearances on “The Apprentice,” trying to please Daddy by playing golf more than fishing, and learning how to dress for success. It was during this training period that father introduced son to the woman who would become Donnie’s wife, the blonde model and beauty contestant Vanessa Kay Haydon. The Made-for-Reality-TV couple was married in 2005 at Mar-a-Lago.

Now rehabilitated, Junior was sent forth into the world to stamp the Trump brand on golf courses, casinos, and gaudy towers from Dubai to Panama City. Along the way, the tycoon-in-training often let slip family secrets, such as his boastful statement in 2008 about the Trump Organization’s business dealings in Russia. “We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia,” Donnie said. “There’s indeed a lot of money coming for new-builds and resale reflecting a trend in the Russian economy and, of course, the weak dollar versus the ruble.”

By that time, Micro-Donald had made at least six trips to Russia, negotiating deals ranging from the promotion of Trump Super Premium Vodka to a failed Russian reality show starring a mixed martial arts fighter. Quality stuff. He made his first expedition to Russia in 2006, where he was introduced to Russian oligarchs by Felix Sater, a Russian-born real estate magnate and Trump business associate. Among the Russian bigwigs Junior met on that maiden trip was Aras Agalarov, the Moscow construction kingpin and father of pop star Emin Agalarov, represented by the rotund impresario Rod Goldstone.

All of this is by way of saying that Don Jr. had much more experience in Russia than his father. He knows the lay of the land, the players and the politics. It was Don Jr. who arranged the Miss Universe contest in Moscow in 2013 and tried to negotiated a deal to build a new Trump tower in the Russian capital, alas another doomed venture. In other words, Little Donny might be an idiot, but he is not a naive idiot. Not about deal-making in Russia, anyway.

So what was going through Micro-Don’s mind when he saw the subject heading in Rod Goldstone’s email: “Russia – Clinton – private and confidential.” Was there a flash of excitement? Did he say to himself? Now I might have something that will really impress him, something that might elevate me in his esteem above that nosy Jared, his sibling-in-law rival? Or as he read deeper into the message, and absorbed the explicit, almost too explicit, offer from an emissary of the Russian Government of “documents and information that would incriminate Hillary,” did some other notion begin to form in his subconscious?

When Don Jr. agreed to the fateful meeting in Trump Tower with a Moscow lawyer with tenuous ties to the Kremlin and a former Russian military intelligence officer bearing gifts and decided to rope Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner into it, did he think he had finally found the ticket to an improbable victory for his father? Or did some other motive begin to percolate in the Oedipal depths of his psyche, tempting him with the idea that in one wild stroke he could sow the seeds for the future fall of the house of Trump?

As attractive as that notion is in a literary sense, such a revenge play authored by Jr. is also improbable. The hubris of the Trump family is surpassed only by their stupidity. As a brood, they are too dumb for Greek tragedy.

Becoming Real: Do Me The Honor

In this installment of Becoming Real, Michael asks Diana a very important question. ;) @coveofmemories @the-slytherin-ice-queen @cosmicjennifer @mxolh @ultrarebelheart @remember-me-forever-silent-angel @tinyplanet-explorers @burnbrightdoll

----

Do you remember our first date? Even though we separated before returning to each other, I think I knew then that we’d end up together.

Diana stared down at the little piece of paper. She and Michael had been together for over two years now. She was off for the next few weeks before starting another internship, and Michael decided to take a couple days off so they could spend some time together, but apparently he’d had some things in mind that he hadn’t shared with her. As she looked down at the paper, she continued to read the note.

...end up together. I want you to go there. There will be a man there named Lucas. He’ll have another note for you.

Oh yay! A scavenger hunt. Before she got ready to leave, she answered a group text from her dads, who were wondering what she was up to today. “Michael has a scavenger hunt for me! I’m on my way to the first place now!” Granted she was 21, but she felt like a two-year-old with how excited she was for this scavenger hunt right now. They both told her to have fun and drive safe, adding that they’d see her later. Dinner had been planned for tonight a couple weeks back.

As she pulled into the lot of the museum where she and Michael had their first date, she couldn’t help but blast showtunes, specifically Hamilton at the moment. Without a care in the world, she ran passed children and adults alike, singing at the top of her lungs as she searched around for the mysterious Lucas, but he found her. “You must be Diana,” he said, extending his hand.

“That’s me!” She laughed. “You have something for me?”

“That I do.” Lucas pulled a piece of paper out of his back pocket and handed it to her. With excitedly shaky hands, she opened it and read the note to herself.

So you found note number 2! Forgive me, I’m not creative. I suck at this, but I thought it would be fun. One of my best memories of the two of us was that egg hunt we had at your house as kids. Your next note will be there. I know what you’re thinking...I’m making you drive back and forth, you were just home, but I have plans and I need you occupied, so go! And you should grab some ice cream on the way and eat it for me because now I’m craving that brownie ice cream from the place down the street.

Oh, that sounded amazing. She couldn’t help but laugh at his notes. They basically just told her where to go and what he was thinking, but they were just as sweet. Having clues and riddles wouldn’t have been very Michael. This was perfect as it was.

Her dads were out on a date. They’d realized that after nearly three decades together, both married and not, they hadn’t been on a date in quite a while, so the house was free for today. As she drove back, switching to singing Wicked instead of Hamilton, she grabbed an ice cream cone and ran into her backyard. A little tear came to her eye when she saw the note near the spot where Roxy’s ashes were buried. It had become her favorite spot to just sit and think over the past couple of years.

Reading aloud, she dripped ice cream on the note accidentally, cursing as she did so. “Fuck! Okay...”

You’re eating ice cream now, right? If you aren’t, we need to grab some later because I really want ice cream. Another memory that stands out in my mind, probably because of how fucking embarrassed I was, was one my caught us having sex...not like she didn’t know...but weird. She and dad are out today, but you know where the key to the house is and you know the code, so go up to my old room, which mom weirdly still hasn’t touched, and you’ll find the note in a special place. I’m sure you can figure out where. ;)

Immediately, she knew where it would be. After nearly getting caught by her dads, who were home more often than JJ and Will, she and Michael had decided to switch sexy times over to his place. In his closet, in the corner, underneath a floorboard, was a little box with all of the things Michael hadn’t wanted his mother to see - the dirty magazines, a dried flower that Diana had given him when they were little, apparently he’d kept it, anything private he kept there. That’s where the next note would be.

Diana cleaned herself up and ran out the door, tempted to grab a pint of brownie ice cream for Michael along the way, but she decided against it; who knew how long this little game was going to last. The drive to his parents’ place was quick and she’d barely parked the car before running up to the door and grabbing the hidden key.

As the alarm went off she entered the numbers and ran upstairs, peeling up the floorboard and grabbing the note he’d left.

Final note! Again, my creativity is waning. Please forgive me. Technically, our first date was at the museum, but the moment I realized I’d always love you was at our official first date, the bowling alley. It was then that I knew I could watch you disgustingly eat cheese fries forevermore and I would be completely and totally happy. That’s where I’ll be...can you bring ice cream? I really want ice cream. I’ve bought us a couple games and I already picked up your shoes, so just meet me at lane 38 when you get here. <3

She couldn’t help but laugh. He was really in the mood for ice cream. After fixing the floorboards in his room again, she got up and walked out, remembering to hide the key again before heading to pick up ice cream, which she’d drop off at their apartment for later.

Then she sped to bowling alley, wishing she could abuse her dads’ power and use a siren, but alas she didn’t have one. “Hey!” she called out, the smile spreading across her face as she jumped into his arms. “That was so much fun!”

“I’m glad. Since we like bowling so much and we go all the time, I decided to get us custom ones.” He pulled a bag out from behind him and allowed her to open it. Inside were a red ball and a blue ball, but when she turned them over, they bore the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw crests (Michael was Gryffindor and she was a Ravenclaw, just like her daddy).

Diana looked up at him and jumped back, clapping excitedly. “And they have our names on them too, oh my god!” Michael gathered her close and pressed his lips to hers.

“I’m so glad you like them.”

“I love them! Are you insane!? Yes! Let’s play!”

After one game, where Michael was even worse than he normally was, he started to look like he was getting sick. “Baby, you okay?” she asked, placing her hand on his head. “We can go home if you’re not feeling well. I’ve had so much fun already.”

He swallowed hard and shook his head. “No that’s okay.” Suddenly, a bowling ball she didn’t recognize popped up by their lane as if someone had just put it there. When she went over to grab her new ball, she absentmindedly turned the new one over. Etched in the side was “Will You Marry Me?”

She spun around on her heels, expecting to see Michael head on, but he was on one knee with a box in his hand. “Oh my god,” she cried. She wasn’t a crier, but she was legitimately about to explode. “This is...you’re...”

Michael sucked in his lip and grabbed her hand. “Now, just let me get this all out before I throw up. I know we’re still young. I know you have to finish med school and I’m always away on cases, so I’m fine with waiting, but I want to wait knowing that I’m going to marry the woman I’ve been in love with since I was little. We’ve grown up together. No matter what, you’ve always been there. When I’m gone, I don’t breath the same because I don't know when, or if I’m going to get back to you. But Diana Alvez-Reid, I want you for the rest of my life. I want us to conquer the fucking world together, save lives, have all the babies and live happily ever after. It’s gonna be hard. It’s gonna be work. But you’re the one I want to work with for rest of my life. Will you do me the honor of being my wife?”

Now a complete mess, Diana brought her free hand up to her face and wiped away the tears. “Yes!”

Michael popped up and grabbed her face in his hands to a round of applause to the people that had gathered around him. When she looked up, she saw both sets of parents, clapping way with tears in their eyes.

“We’re gonna be in-laws,” Spencer said, grabbing JJ and kissing the top of her head. “We used to joke about that.”

“Not anymore.”

“I know right, this is so good. Awesome stake since well ever” Dean says looking to you.

“No not that, I mean yeah the food is awesome but I just realized something” You look up from your plate of food right in front of you to look at both of your brothers with an expression that they couldnt even read.

“Ok whats wrong?” Dean asks with a mouth full of food.

“Gross dude finish eating all of your food geez” Sam says looking to Dean with a grossed out look on his face.

“Michael” Is all that you could say while trying to explain more but couldnt go on with the feeling you have within the pit of your stomach.

“What about him?” He says after finally swallowing his food. Again nothing comes out of your mouth once you are about to say something nothing comes out, Sam looks to you with a smile spread across his face.

“What? Y/n by all means some time this year” Dean says already getting impatient with what you have to say.

“Dude cant you tell?” Sam asks Dean looking away from you.

“No I cant tell Sammy so please tell me what I dont understand” Dean says looking to Sam.

“I think y/n has found her mate not just any mate but her true mate” Sam says with a dopey smile on his face still having his gaze on Dean while he just whips his head from you than to Sam and back to you again while his eyes pop right out of his sockets.

Dean didnt have anything to say at all when Sam realized that you had found your true mate and to be fairly honest you didnt even think that is true to begin with. You thought it was some made up stories that belonged in the fairy tales that your mom once read to you, than Dean started reading them to you after she passed away.

Sam on the other hand couldnt believe that you would be the first person to find a true mate out of three of you siblings. You just left Dean to take in all of this information while he sits there across from you at the table while Sam on the other hand is looking to you with a smile spread across his face.

“Ok Sam you are kind of creeping me out here” You say to him while taking a sip from your beer.

“Im not trying to creep you out, Im just simply surprised you even found a mate is all” He says while he sits there struggling to form his sentences.

You look to Dean with a hopeful expression across your face for him to say something at least.

“I am just as surprised as you are” You tell him while trying to take another bite of your stake but Michael has officially crept into your head.

Dean again still has nothing to say, he just sits there looking away from you and more focusing on his half eaten food.

“Im just going to bed and finish the rest of the unpacking tomorrow. I still need to unpack my office and get some supplies that I would need.” You tell your brothers as you get your plate and put them into the garbage.

“Your not going to stick around for desert?” Sam asks while you go to the sink to place the utensils in the sink for the wash tomorrow.

“Wait” Finally Dean says something after being silent for so long, you stop in your tracks out of the kitchen, you turn slowly towards your brothers that are still seated at the table.

“If he is your true mate, what does he smell like to you?” Dean asks as his voice shakes near the end of his question.

“Uh he smells like earthy tones um like fresh rain fall on the first day of Summer, fresh mint sprouting into the air and if I concentrate close enough his scent smells like cool crisp air that comes on the first day of Fall” You stand there and tell your brothers what his scent smells like and how his scent just gives you comfort and you didnt realize you are smiling as you describe his scent.

Your brothers sit there and listen to you with such grace as you talk about Michaels scent, thats when you opened your eyes and see Sam smiling like an idiot and Dean well you cant tell what the hell he is thinking.

“Uh Im going to bed, night guys and um thanks for this evening love you guys” You say and walk up the stairs to your room, they say their good nights in unison.

“Well than I think that is very surprising considering she never believed in the whole true mate thing and how she said she will never be that typical Omega” Sam says to break the silence in the kitchen.

“Are you kidding me, she isnt the typical Omega. We raised her to have her own voice and do whatever the hell she wants whenever she wants.” Dean says looking to Sam with a fond smile on his face thinking back to all those years ago while the three of you were growing up and as you presented Omega your brothers never treated you like one.

They treated you with such respect in allowing you to do whatever you wanted but always made sure you were safe, you didnt mind if they were protective of you because knowing terrible things happen to Omega's and that they are treated like sex objects.

“Thats what Im happy for really, the one thing I am really happy is about you never letting her go to one of those Omega Private schools then we would never see her again” Sam says with a shaky voice at the end of his thought and looking to Dean.

“I had to fight for her basically but they backed off after I told them that they would be the ones to fuck her up even more if I let her go to those schools and I brought some of the stuff from the news and they just left us alone after that” Dean says looking to Sam after taking a sip from his beer.

“When was that? And where was I when all of this happened? How come you never told me?” Sam asks in a panic knowing this is the first time he has ever heard about this.

“It was the time when you were in Stanford, after dad passed and soon after that she presented as Omega also the time she didnt want to go on the suppressants because she knew the medical records will get to the government and would come snooping around. They did anyways stupid nosey neighbours saw me carrying a bag that had the toy she needed and called it in right away that stupid bitch. Maybe a week after thats when they came knocking on the door. Reason why I never told you that while you were in school is because I knew that you would come back home but I couldnt let you though because you were in law school and knowing sometime down the road we would need you to fight for Omega rights” Dean says with a fond smile on his face and looks to his little brother who sits there with a fond smile at the distant memory.

“Im happy you fought for her man, really I am but you still should have told me than I would have a reason to practise the legal laws for Omega's because California already has given all rights to Omega's there” Sam says as he talks to his older brother about the legal rights for Omega's, thats what he went to school for and did that for you. He knew it would come a long way to practise law in Omega Rights.

“I had to fight for her because I didnt want her to go through all of that crap and later have her being sold to a suitable “mate” and never have her find her true mate like she did tonight” Thats when everything hit hard for Dean, his baby sister finding her true mate and having to let her go once that time comes along for the mate to take her away and live together. Dean gets up from the table and paces around the kitchen.

“Hey whats wrong?” Sam asks looking to his older brother.

“Its just uh y/n found her mate and guess what that means?” He answers his little brother from the kitchen sink.

“Dean, that wont happen until she is ready to have anyone come near her but in the mean time lets just have these moments with her” Sam says as he gets up to clean the table.

“I cant let her go, I mean I still see her as a baby man. I feel like dad when she decided to go on her first date when she was fourteen” He says while he has his head down looking into the sink.

“Oh with that Aiden kid, I remember that dad pulled off his fake heart attack thing” He chuckles at the memory and looks to Dean again who is about to have a some what panic attack.

“Dean calm down, its not going to be tomorrow. You will be ready to let her go once you get to know the guy. I mean he seems like a good guy well from what I can tell at the restaurant” He says while throwing the food into the garbage and walks to the fridge to put the pies away.

As you get ready for bed, you begin to look out the window to make sure that no one was out there lurking around the yard. You close the curtains and began to change into your pyjama's, throw in your day clothes into the laundry hamper and get into your comfortable bed.

You get into the fetal position in the middle and try to drift off to sleep, you couldnt get comfortable in your own skin after what had happened at the restaurant, you drift into a deep sleep. You are taken back to the restaurant everything is the way it was as you follow your brothers to the table. You feel someone grab you and its the same person as he gets up in slow motion to repeat what he had said earlier that night but this time both of you are alone.

You and “Roman” are in an ally, no one around, he tries to rip the clothing off from your body as you struggle to loosen the grip he has on you. You try to scream for help but no one shows, he looks into your eyes as you look into his and all you see is recklessness, malice, and perversion. He managed to get your jeans off within a split second, covered your mouth as he bent you over the crates that were left out in the ally way.

When he gets himself out of his pants to line himself up into your channel

“You want my knot and you cant deny me. Im going to fill you up real good” He says against your ear.

You feel as he pushes slowly inside of you, you try to say out loud no no no no but it is all muffled by his hand covering your mouth. He jerks you multiple times to keep you from moving under him but he fails as you keep moving.

Dean and Sam come running into your room while you scream, thrash against your bed and yell repeatedly no for several minutes. Sam shakes you very roughly and your eyes shot open so wide you begin to panic again, you stare at your brothers in fear not really knowing what is real or not when you quickly back away from them.

“Please, no more. I said no once already” You whisper as you sit yourself up against the corner of the wall and have your knees to your chest while your head is leaned against your knees.

Dean is the one who slowly approaches you with hands to his sides

“Im not going to hurt you ok. I dont want to hurt you, I would feel horrible if I ever did ok. You had a bad dream and I dont know about what but you scared Sam and I so we came rushing in here” He says as he settles himself in front of you but you dont meet his eyes, you sit there rocking yourself back and forth trying to get rid of the shakes you have going through your body.

“Y/n” Is all that Sam could say as he tries to get closer to you but you push yourself away from him

“LEAVE ME ALONE!!!” You yell to your brother without even looking at him.

Monday Night Raw #120

July 17, 1995 (June 26, 1995) Danville High School Danville, PA Announcers: Vince McMahon & Jerry Lawler

1) Owen Hart & Yokozuna defeats Gus Kantarakis & Jim Dimitri when Hart submits Dimitri with the Sharpshooter at 2:54

Scott: So the Tag Team Champions are facing the babyface Greek warriors? It’s been a while since we’ve seen the Tag Team Champions in action. We are a week away from IYH so all the big players will likely be on this week. Before the open we had promos from Shawn Michaels & IRS, who will face each other later in the show. This one is a pretty quick squash because we have a lot to do this week. Grade: DUD

JT: Welcome to this week’s edition of Raw where things may be feeling a tad stale as we are still holed up in Danville, PA. Of course, the crowd has held up well to date so we will see. IYH is less than a week away and the hype machine is in high gear. Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler welcome us to the show and we head right down to the ring where Owen Hart and Yokozuna head to the ring to battle a pair of Greek underdogs. Vince reminds us that the champs are battling the Allied Powers in Nashville as Jim Cornette says that the names of these jobbers sound like a law firm. We get more Isaac Yankem talk, of course, as the match gets under way. Vince also tells us that Yoko is checking in at 641 pounds these days and King says he weighs more than the Blu Brothers combined. Owen and Yoko dominate the action and pick up the win as they head into looking to continue their dominance on Sunday. Grade: DUD

*** Todd Pettengill is here with our final In Your House report. The show is this Sunday and here is the card:

Diesel vs. Sid – WWF Title Lumberjack Match Shawn Michaels vs. Jeff Jarrett – WWF Intercontinental Title Match 1-2-3 Kid vs. Roadie Allied Powers vs. Owen Hart & Yokozuna – WWF Tag Team Title Match Razor Ramon & Savio Vega vs. Men on a Mission Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Henry Godwinn

Also, Shawn Michaels will be performing “With My Baby, Tonight”. Call your cable company right now… don’t be left behind! See you Sunday! ***

2) Jean-Pierre Lafitte defeats Dave Thornberg with the cannonball at 2:32

Scott: We just had our final IYH report with Todd, and now the French-Canadian Pirate is in action. Vince is talking about the retirement (kayfabe, he was fired in real life) of Jack Tunney as WWF President, and the rumors are rampant as to who the new on-air boss will be. Other than that this match isn’t much. We need more of the big players on this episode to do the final hard sell for Sunday and not the random guys that won’t be on Sunday. Grade: DUD

JT: Back down to the ring, Jean-Pierre Lafitte is heading to the ring to battle Dave Thornberg. Vince says Jean-Pierre is a descendent of the legendary pirate Jean Lafitte and Thornberg is related to former Attorney General Dick Thornberg. We also get some talking about Queen Elizabeth and then Vince talks about the retirement of Jack Tunney as WWF President. The search is on for his official replacement. Vince tells us things have gone missing from the locker room lately, hinting that the pirate is the reason why. Lafitte easily finishes off Thornberg with the cannonball. He has looked really good in these squashes, airing it all out without caution. We will see him Sunday at ringside as he is one of Sid’s lumberjacks. Grade: DUD

*** We visit Sunnyvale, CA where former Headshrinker Fatu is visiting his hometown and talking about where and how he grew up. Now that he is a big star, he wants to make a difference just like his mom told him to do when he was younger. ***

*** We get one last look at Jeff Jarrett’s “With My Baby, Tonight” video before he performs live in Nashville this Sunday. ***

3) Shawn Michaels defeats IRS with the Superkick at 8:33

Fun Fact: Tonight we say goodbye to IRS (Mike Rotunda) on Raw. He will participate at In Your House #2 as one of the lumberjacks in the main event before leaving the WWF. Rotunda would return to WCW in September as V.K. Wallstreet.

Scott: Now this is what I mean. Shawn Michaels is in one of the most high profile matches on Sunday’s PPV, so he needs to be on this show having a great warm up match. Indeed he faces one of the most solid, dependable workers in the company right now. Before this match we saw a Fatu vignette, as the Headshrinkers are apparently gone and he’s now “making a difference”. Whatever that means. We also watched, AGAIN, the “With my Baby Tonight” video. With Sunday’s show in Nashville it is apparent that Jeff Jarrett is the one with the big push going into this show. He’s the Intercontinental Champion and he’s “performing” live at the show. This has been a fun match so far as IRS knows how to sell Shawn’s high octane offense while wearing his alternate blue button down shirt. IRS takes control with power strikes and a shot with the steel steps. Vince said that both Sid and Diesel are visible at the entrance in the back of the aisle but we don’t see them. The match is really hard hitting and is Shawn’s best match since WrestleMania, not that he’s wrestled many of them. IRS ducked the Superkick a couple times before he finally walked into one. Shawn gets the victory and is ready for Sunday in Nashville. The more Shawn Michaels matches on Raw, the better the grades are. Grade: **1/2

JT: It time for our marquee match of the evening as Shawn Michaels has one last tune up before his big title match with Jeff Jarrett on Sunday. Here he faces IRS, the old stalwart of the Million Dollar Corporation. Irwin is decked out in his blue dress shirt this week, mixing things up after four years in the white. Sadly it is also the last time we will see IRS on Raw before he leaves the company. Michaels toys with Irwin a bit to start, messing with him in the ring and then smacking him around on the floor. Shawn heats up a bit an unloads a flurry of offense on Irwin, drilling him with a dropkick and then grabbing a side headlock. IRS dodged a charge and Shawn careening to the floor where IRS followed and slung him into the steps. The crowd fires up an “Irwin” chant as Vince and King note that Sid and Diesel are both looking on from the backstage area. Back in the ring, we get one last Raw IRS abdominal stretch as Ted DiBiase cheers his charge on. Shawn breaks the hold but Irwin maintains control, gets a near fall and then hooks a chinlock. Irwin maintains the hold through a break but Shawn would eventually power out of the hold and start to batter Irwin with a barrage of offense. Irwin was able to dodge the Superkick and land in a clothesline but eventually his time ran out and Michaels leveled him with the kick for the win. This was a solid TV match and a perfect way for Irwin to go out. He was the big workhorse on Raw for well over a year and always gave us a solid outing each time. He wasn’t the most engrossing wrestler or character but he was definitely a fabric of the show as it got going. Farewell, Irwin. We will see Shawn Michaels on Sunday as he tries to take away the IC title from the clutches of Double J. Grade: **

*** We head to the aisle for a visit with Barry Didinsky, who is offering up Shawn Michaels shirts and glasses as an exclusive deal tonight. Shawn pops in and plants a kiss on a young lady modeling a Razor Ramon shirt as Didinsky finishes his pitch. ***

*** Back to the dentist office we go where Jerry Lawler is watching Isaac Yankem torture some poor child. Lawler talks shit to Bret Hart and says he will see the pain Yankem can bring in the ring soon. And afterwards, Bret and Stu Hart can gum their food together since neither will have teeth. ***

4) Kama defeats Billy Mack with an uppercut at 2:02

Scott: Billy Mack is from Connecticut! Another on the list of…2. Him and Hunter Hearst-Helmsley. Kama is carrying around the chain made from Undertaker’s urn. Speaking of the Deadman, where is he? We haven’t seen him since the go-home Raw before KOTR, and he hasn’t been seen since. Once again, Vince isn’t spreading the wealth on the superstars for both Raw and the syndies. Since Raw launched two and a half years ago we’ve seen Undertaker, maybe ten times? Sure he was out from January-August 1994, but even since then he’s been on Raw, maybe five times? Kama wins this easily but if there’s a feud with Taker going on, we need to see some of that. Grade: DUD

JT: It is back to the ring for our final match of the evening as Kama jobs out with Ted DiBiase to battle Billy Mack. DiBiase is all over the place on these Raws, it feels like he shows up at least two or three times a show at this point. Kama is still wearing the chain that was melded from Undertaker’s urn as their rivalry continues on. Of course, at KOTR, Kama cost Undertaker his first round match with Mabel, furthering the issue. Vince tells that this Sunday will be the first time the WWF Title is defended in a Lumberjack Match on PPV. He also ponders if Isaac Yankem will show up on Raw next week. Vince pushes IYH hard again as Kama wrecks Mack and finishes him with an uppercut for the win. Now he awaits the Deadman. Grade: DUD

*** Vince McMahon heads to the ring to chat with WWF Champion Diesel. Vince asks Diesel if his title reign will come to an end on Sunday and Diesel calls Psycho Sid a big chicken. He says Ted DiBiase bought a bunch of friends to stand around the ring at In Your House but Diesel says you can’t buy friends. He says Sid will eat a Jackknife and see his career end on Sunday and then invites his lumberjack friends to the ring: Bam Bam Bigelow, Smoking Gunns, Bob Holly, 1-2-3 Kid, Tekkno Team 2000, Adam Bomb, Savio Vega, Duke Droese, Fatu, Man Mountain Rock & Shawn Michaels. Diesel role-plays as Sid and shows what will happen Sunday if he tries to run away. Sid then shows up and walks down the aisle and jaws with Diesel. After a break, Sid’s lumberjacks also showed up and surrounded the ring. McMahon told Sid to get in the ring and go eye-to-eye and after teasing he would do so, he backed down and let ringside. ***

Final Analysis

Scott: This episode is roughly like last week’s episode, with some throwaway matches and one good match. Shawn Michaels is getting into a groove since returning from injury. This is the stretch where he establishes himself as the #2 worker in the company behind Bret Hart. Two different workers but Bret obviously was the alpha dog right now. The other highlight for me was finding the second jobber ever from my home state of Connecticut. Billy Mack wrestles about as well as Jerry Allen. Oh and the sad follow up on the announcement of Jack Tunney’s retirement. There will never be another Jack Tunney. Final Grade: C

JT: We wrap up the build to In Your House with a solid edition of Raw. Again, things were very focused and formatted and they made every moment count and did a nice job hyping up the PPV, which they are clearly putting stock in to help the company bounce back from the disastrous King of the Ring. And the card they have put together does have some nice potential. We are still spending a lot of time on characters that are probably headed nowhere instead of really showcasing the top stars but there is no urgency to do so with a lack of serious television competition. I liked the final interview too and the parallels to last week’s version with Sid. The final image of all the lumberjacks was a good one. I am not too crazy about how they have portrayed Sid as a pussy but the stipulation certainly fits the character design. The shrewd move would be for him to show up as a bad ass in Nashville and wreck house. We will see I guess. Until next week… Final Grade: C

Hollywood Biggest Celebrity Scandal

Tim Allen arrested for dealing cocaine, 1978

Before he became everyone’s favorite Santa Clause (or the handy tool man, or Buzz Lightyear), Tim Allen was caught dealing drugs—specifically cocaine. He was arrested for possession of nearly a pound-and-a-half of cocaine at the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International airport in Michigan in 1978. He spent 28 months in a federal prison, as opposed to a life sentence, for giving up the names of other drug offenders.

Marvin Gaye murdered by his father, 1984

The soul singer of the 80s, known as the Prince of Motown, was shot and killed by his father, Rev. Marvin Gay Sr. after an altercation. (Note: The “e” was added to the singer’s stage name.) Gaye’s brother Frankie, reportedly held him in his final moments. In his memoir, Frankie wrote that his brother’s last words were, “I got what I wanted…I couldn’t do it myself, so I made him do it.”

Rob Lowe made a sex tape with a 16-year-old, 1988

A video of the then-24-year-old Parks and Rec star having sex with two women was reportedly recorded the night before the 1988 Democratic National Convention in Atlanta. (Side note: Lowe was largely into politics before his acting career took off.) When it surfaced, it was discovered that one of the girls was only 16 years old. Her mother slapped him with a civil lawsuit, and he ended up settling, paying her a large sum of money and doing 20 hours of community service.

Michael Jackson accused of sexual assault, 1993

In 1993, Michael Jackson was accused of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old boy named Jordan Chandler. After the accusations went public, Jackson cancelled his tour due to health issues from the scandal. He later settled the case, paying the Chandlers $23,000.

O.J. Simpson arrested for the murder of his wife, 1994

Football star O.J. Simpson was arrested for the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ronald Goldman, following a now-iconic car chase through Los Angeles. After 15 months in jail, Simpson was famously acquitted of both counts, thanks in part to his lawyer’s “if the glove doesn’t fit, you must acquit” line. In 2008, 13 years later, Simpson was convicted of robbery and kidnapping for a separate incident.

Hugh Grant caught with a prostitute, 1995

In 1995, Hugh Grant paid a sex worker to give him a blow job on the Sunset Strip but the two were found by police and the Four Weddings and a Funeral actor was arrested for “lewd conduct” in a public place. At the time of his arrest, he was with his longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley, who tried to work through the incident. She ended up leaving Grant five years later.

Prince Charles and Princess Diana divorce, 1996

After years of marital strain and four years of separation, Prince Charles and Princess Diana formally divorced in August of 1996. Their marriage was tainted by controversy, especially at the end, with both sides cheating—Charles most famously with long-time love and now-wife, Camilla Parker Bowels. As the future King of England, Charles’ status as a divorcee is particularly scandalous.

Princess Diana killed in a car accident, 1997

Less than a year after she and Prince Charles got divorced, Princess Diana was killed in a car accident in Paris after being chased by paparazzi—and it was rumored that the future king planned her death. Later a letter from the princess to her former butler was discovered. In it she wrote that she felt Charles was setting up an incident so he could marry Tiggy, the former nanny of Princes William and Harry, but many believe the note was forged and an inquest concluded in 2008 found no wrongdoing on the part of the royal family.

Bill Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky made public, 1998

In 1995, former President Bill Clinton began having an affair with a then-21-year-old Monica Lewinsky, who was an unpaid White House intern. The huge scandal was made public in 1998, and Clinton denied that he had “sexual relations” with Lewinsky. He later admitted that he did have an affair with her, which contributed to his impeachment in 1999.

Marilyn Manson’s music blamed for the Columbine shooting, 1999

After one of the deadliest schools shootings—in which two seniors murdered 12 students and one teacher at Columbine High School—people pointed the finger at musician Marilyn Manson. It was thought that the two students loved Manson and his music, and it was said that the singer’s songs inspired them to carry out the tragic act. The rumor was proven false, but Manson’s reputation was hurt badly from the reports.

Winona Ryder arrested for shoplifting, 2001

In 2001, the Stranger Things actress was caught stealing over $5,560 worth of merchandise from a Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills, California. She reportedly ripped tags off of clothing items and stashed them in her bag. Ryder later spun the incident positively, telling Daily Mail, “In a weird way, it was almost like the best thing that could have happened, because I’d never asked myself the question before of, Is it okay if I’m not going to act? Is there anything else? because that was all that I really knew.”

R. Kelly arrested for child pornography, 2002

R. Kelly was indicted on 21 counts of child pornography after a tape showing him having sex with and urinating on an underage woman was sent to the Chicago Sun Times. He plead not guilty to all charges. Since, dozens of women have claimed to have been held in a sex cult by the singer. The hashtag #MuteRKelly started spreading recently, and Spotify was the first company to actually take action.

Madonna and Britney Spears kissed on stage, 2003

During a 2003 MTV Video Music Award performance, Britney Spears and Madonna shocked everyone when they kissed on stage. Christina Aguilera was performing with them, too, and got a smooch from Madonna, but the cameras switched shots and their kiss wasn’t televised. Videographers instead cut to a shot of Justin Timberlake’s shocked face.

Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston announced their divorce, 2005

In January 2005, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston made a shocking joint statement that revealed they were breaking up. “We would like to announce that after seven years together we have decided to formally separate. For those who follow these sorts of things, we would like to explain that our separation is not the result of any of the speculation reported by the tabloid media,” they said in the statement.

“This decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration,” the statement continued. “We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another. We ask in advance for your kindness and sensitivity in the coming months.” It was thought that their divorce was the result of the scandalous affair Pitt had with Angelina Jolie while filming the movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

Britney Spears shaved her head, 2007

Also in 2007: Britney Spears shaved off all her hair. The “Oops I Did It Again” singer hit rock bottom, beating up a photographer’s car with an umbrella just days after going at her head with a buzz cutter. That year was a rough year for Spears, and it started the famous meme: “If Britney Spears can make it through 2007, then I can make it through today.”

Kim Kardashian’s sex tape made public, 2007

Before she was married to Kanye West, Kim Kardashian was in a serious relationship with another singer: Willie “Ray J” Norwood. The couple reportedly filmed a sex tape back in 2002 during a trip to Cabo, Mexico, and it was released to the public five years later when Kim began getting more media attention for being friends with Paris Hilton (who also has a sex tape). Kim sued in an attempt to prevent the 41-minute film from being accessible, but it still found its way to the internet.

Heath Ledger found dead, 2008

In 2008, the 10 Things I Hate About You actor was found dead in his bed in New York city. The NYC Medical Examiner’s Office later determined that the cause of death was an accidental overdose of prescription painkillers, including anti-anxiety meds and sleeping pills. The Dark Knight, starring Ledger as the Joker, was released that summer in theaters, and his performance won him a posthumous Oscar.

Chris Brown assaulted Rihanna, 2009

Back in 2009, Chris Brown beat up then-girlfriend Rihanna after she discovered a text message from one of Brown’s former flames. The “Forever” singer reportedly punched her in the face, repeatedly bit her, and choked her, but not to the point of unconsciousness.

In a 20/20 interview, Rihanna opened up about the incident. “It was ugly,” she said. “I fended him off with my feet…but it was not like, it was not like a fight with each other. I just…I really just wanted it to stop.”

Michael Jackson killed, 2009

Michael Jackson was found dead on June 25, 2009. The cause? Surgical anesthetic Propofol, which was given to him by his personal doctor, Conrad Murray. Murray claimed to be injecting the King of Pop with the drug as a treatment for his insomnia. Jackson’s death was ruled a homicide, and Murray blamed for negligent monitoring. He spent two years in jail for involuntary manslaughter.

Whitney Houston found dead in a bathtub, 2012

The world was shocked when Whitney Houston was found dead in a bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in 2012. An autopsy revealed that the singer died from accidental drowning. Her body was found with numerous drugs in it, including cocaine, marijuana, Xanax, and Benadryl. Houston had heart disease, so it is thought that the disease mixed with cocaine contributed to her death.

Solange Knowles gets into elevator fight with Jay Z, 2014

Following the 2014 Met Gala, leaked surveillance video captured Solange Knowles physically fighting her brother-in-law Jay Z in an elevator at the Standard Hotel in New York City. Although there was no shortage of speculation on the internet, the Carter-Knowles family gave little information as to what actually went down. “They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family,” they said in a statement given to the Associated Press.

Although the family has remained incredibly mum’s the word on the situation, Jay Z broke his silence in 2017 to share that he and Solange truly have moved on. “We had one disagreement ever. Before and after, we’ve been cool. She’s like my sister. I will protect her. That’s my sister, not my sister-in-law. My sister. Period,” he said during an appearance on Rap Radar.

30 Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, and Taylor Swift feud over “Famous” lyrics, 2016

Kanye’s infamous “I’mma let you finish” at the 2008 Video Music Awards turned out to only be the beginning of his beef with Taylor Swift. In 2016, Kanye released the song “Famous” on his The Life of Pablo album, which explicitly mentions Swift in the opening: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why? I made that bitch famous/Goddamn, I made that bitch famous.” Although Swift claimed she didn’t know about the song, Kim Kardashian decided to interject on her husband’s behalf. In a series of Snapchats, Kardashian leaked a recorded phone call between Kanye and Swift—Kanye shares a clip of the song for Swift’s approval, and the singer is heard saying, “Yeah, I mean, what’s dope about the line is it’s very tongue in cheek either way. And I really appreciate you telling me about it, that’s really nice.”

Swift’s response to the Snapchats? The singer claimed Kanye never shared the most offensive part of the lyrics with her. “Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that bitch’ in his song? It doesn’t exist because it never happened. You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called ‘that bitch’ in front of the entire world,” she wrote on Instagram. To this day, the feud still remains a case of he-said-she-said.

Harvey Weinstein accused of sexual assault, 2017

On October 5, 2017, Ashley Judd accused longtime movie mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment—a bombshell accusation that led to the historical Time’s Up and #MeToo movements. Since the first allegations, a number of other actresses have come forward with their stories of being sexually harassed or assaulted by Weinstein. After eight months, he finally turned himself in to police in New York City.

20-year-old Kylie Jenner quietly gives birth to first child, 2018

After months of speculation, an uncharacteristically quiet Kylie Jenner took to Instagram to share that she had given birth to a baby girl on February 1. Although news of her reported pregnancy with boyfriend Travis Scott leaked in September 2017, the reality star chose to stay quiet through all nine months, never confirming the news. “I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark through all the assumptions. I understand you’re used to me bringing you along on all my journeys. My pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world,” she wrote in an Instagram post announcing the news.
