What were they thinking?! Celebrities who've made stupid decisions

Embarrassing celebrity moments

Being famous means your every move is scrutinised and those fashion faux pas, bad decisions and embarrassing moments are out there for everyone to see - for an eternity!

Take a look at some silly celebrities who've made dubious decisions, including Miley Cyrus smoking a bong, Tom Cruise 'jumping the couch', Rihanna's golden grill and Snoop Dogg's ridiculous name change.


Rihanna wears a gold grill on her teeth

Rihanna always likes to push the boundaries, style-wise, but her latest look gets a definite thumbs down from us. She's been sporting a metallic grill on her teeth and was photographed wearing the bling at a restaurant in Santa Monica. Surely it makes it difficult to eat?! What's more troubling is that her latest fashion statement comes just weeks after her violent ex Chris Brown wore a similar grill - a bit of non-verbal communication, RiRi?

But there's been plenty of public chit-chat between the ex-lovers too. Just hours before Chris was due in court for a probation hearing stemming from the assault, Rihanna tweeted him: 'I'm praying for u and wishing the best today!' Seems she's forgotten that this is the same guy who beat her black and blue in 2009!


Chris Brown's dubious tattoo

While we're on the subject of Chris Brown, he was criticised for a new tattoo on his neck of a 'sugar skull' from the Mexican Day of the Dead celebrations, which happened to resemble the face of a battered woman - the face of Rihanna after he assaulted her, to be exact. At best, it's an incredibly tactless and insensitive move by the R&B singer.


Snoop Dogg's name change

Snoop Dogg recently made the dubious decision to change his name to Snoop Lion. The revelation came, he said, after a trip to Jamaica where he experienced a rebirth. 'I have always said I was Bob Marley reincarnated. I have always been a Rastafari,' Snoop Dogg, er, Lion explained.


Tom Cruise jumping the couch

Tom Cruise went on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 2005 not long after he'd met Katie Holmes, and his cringeworthy declaration of love is the stuff of legend. The star's credibility plummeted as he literally jumped on the couch to exclaim his love for his new girlfriend - and poor Katie looked mortified when they called for her to come out from backstage to join the happy scene. The couple divorced in July.


Kanye West's stage invasion

It'll be years before Kanye West lives this down. He shocked fans and critics alike when he invaded the stage at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards just as Taylor Swift was accepting the award for Best Female Video, grabbed the microphone from her and declared that Beyonce should have won. Unbelievably, it wasn't the first time that he'd lost control and stormed a stage - Kanye did a similar thing at the MTV Europe Music Awards in 2006 when he took offence to Justice and Simian beating him to an award.


Miley Cyrus caught smoking a bong

Disney star Miley Cyrus celebrated turning 18 by smoking a bong at her party. She seemed happy to let a friend film the happy occasion and - you guessed it - the footage was leaked. Miley claimed to have been smoking a legal high, the plant Salvia, but even so, the ex-Hannah Montana star instantly alienated herself from her legion of young fans.


Miley Cyrus goes punk

Miley's rebellious streak means the shocks keep coming thick and fast - she got engaged in June aged just 19, then cut off her trademark long locks and debuted a punky new hairstyle at the MTV Awards in September. The good girl gone bad already has around 10 tattoos so we can't imagine what's next on her list!


Charlie Sheen's meltdown

Charlie Sheen had the mother of all meltdowns in 2011 - he went from being the highest paid actor on television to being unemployed when he was fired from Two And A Half Men for publicly berating the show's creator. To celebrate, he moved in with two 'goddesses', started a YouTube channel, and spouted quotes like 'I'm tired of pretending I'm not a total bitchin' rock star from Mars'. He eventually cleaned up his act and apologised, but it was fun while it lasted.


Lady Gaga's meat dress

We normally love Lady Gaga, but the meat dress she wore at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards was the first time fans and critics alike had been toally turned off by one of her scene-stealing outfits. It was made of strips of raw beef and it stunk. What was the point, exactly?


Lady Gaga's meat corset

Unfortunately Gaga is back wearing a carcass, this time as a corset, as part of her Born This Way Ball.


Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction

During Janet Jackson's Superbowl performance with Justin Timberlake in 2004, her right breast was exposed to a TV audience of millions. Some said it was intentional, as JT tore open her top as he sang the line 'Gonna have you naked by the end of this song' from his single Rock Your Body, but after being inundated with thousands with complaints, apologies were issued and the term 'wardrobe malfunction' was coined. The phrase is still used today whenever there's a garment-based incident and nearly a decade on, Janet is yet to live it down.


Angelina Jolie's 'Billy Bob' tattoo

Angelina Jolie was only married to Billy Bob Thornton for three years, but in that time she got his name branded on her shoulder. After their divorce, she had it removed and covered the area with a list of her children's birthplaces.


Johnny Depp's 'Winona Forever' tattoo

Of course, Angelina isn't the only smitten star to have a lover's name emblazoned on their body and lived to regret it. Johnny Depp is another one - he had 'Winona Forever' tattooed on his right arm when he dated Winona Ryder the early 90s; when they split he changed it to 'Wino Forever'.


Kim Kardashian's reality television romance

Kim Kardashian flaunted her relationship with basketball star Kris Humphries on chat shows, in magazines and, of course, on her TV series, including a two-part wedding special which was watched by millions. In total, the marriage lasted 72 days. Kim later said she regretted allowing cameras into their private moments. 'I wouldn't have another relationship shown on the show. That might be too personal, especially when you're just meeting someone,' she said.


Lindsay Lohan's bad behaviour

Where do we start? Lindsay Lohan has also made A LOT of dubious decisions in the past few years. The constant partying, the bad behaviour, driving while under the influence which resulted in jail time, a reputation in tatters and a once-promising movie career which never lived up to its potential.


Lindsay Lohan's ever-changing image

As for Lindsay's physical appearance, misguided changes to her hair colour and some rumoured nips and tucks have made her look much older than her 26 years.
