• 

  (#1) Ariana Grande

  • 25

  Likely on a stop somewhere on a TMZ tour bus, Ariana Grande has been banned from returning to Wolfee Donuts in Lake Elsinore, California. Dubbed Donutgate, the pop star was caught on camera licking the doughnuts on display and uttering "I hate America." America quickly hated Grande back after the footage was released to the media. Wolfee Donuts issued a statement saying that they would be pressing charges against the singer.

  (#2) Charlie Sheen

  • 53

  Tiger-blood-infused goat's milk treatment advocate Charlie Sheen was ejected from New York City's Plaza Hotel after he trashed his suite. Naked and on more drugs than you can imagine, Sheen tore the place to shreds while his porn star friend hid in the bathroom. Police were called to handle the situation and Sheen was asked never to stay at the hotel again.

  (#3) Azealia Banks

  • 27

  Azealia Banks was banned from Twitter following a cyber rant that included an endless list of racial and homophobic slurs. Nothing new for Banks - the Twitter troll and underperforming rapper has been known to dish out incomprehensible hate at anyone and anything willing to challenge her in the Internet realm. Her most recent tirade found her locked out of Twitter after she personally targeted former One Direction member Zayn Malik and 14-year old Disney Channel star Skai Jackson. The new low has only resulted in Banks's outrage being transferred to Instagram.

  Banks is now being investigated by UK officials, a move that could potentially result in her being banned from performing in the country. She has already been taken off the lineup for the London Born & Bred Festival.

  (#4) Madonna

  • 60

  During a screening of 12 Years a Slave, Madonna decided she'd break the most simple rule of movie theater etiquette and text up a storm throughout the viewing. When fellow movie-goers told Madge to cut it out, she reportedly lashed out and was being difficult. Too busy to stop texting on her Blackberry (people still use those?), Madonna was asked to leave the screening at the Texas Alamo Drafthouse and barred from any future attendance.
• 

  (#5) Lindsay Lohan

  • 32

  Lohan has famously been barred from the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood for an exorbitant amount of unpaid bills. Lilo claims she has settled the dispute, but she previously owed $46,350.04 to the hotel. Whether or not Lohan paying back the charges lifted the ban is unknown, but the socialite and actress hasn't tended to party around there in recent years.

  (#6) Miley Cyrus

  • 26

  Miley Cyrus was most recently banned from the Dominican Republic after they deemed her overtly sexual Bangerz World Tour performance as inappropriate. Although that comes as no surprise, Cyrus was also banned from China in 2009 after she shared a photograph of her and her friends mocking the Asian community. In the picture, Cyrus and her friends are pulling back their eyes to make them appear "slanted." Despite Miley's apology and assertions that she was just making a "goofy face," China had "no interest in further polluting [their] children's minds with her American ignorance."

  (#7) Kathy Griffin

  • 58

  Kathy Griffin is racking up a long list of talk shows that refuse to have her as a guest spot. Inappropriate cussing, crude comments towards hosts, and unexpected stripping are a few of the reasons Griffin is no longer welcome on a growing list of talk shows. So far, Griffin has been banned from appearing on The View, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Today, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and The Late Show with David Letterman, all due to her outlandish behavior. Griffin consistently butts heads with industry power players for her outspoken attitude.
• 

  (#8) Stewart Rahr

  • 73

  Billionaire entrepreneur and designated douchebag Stewart Rahr was banned from Nobu, a popular New York restaurant, after he berated a manager and attempted to pay off diners for their table. Rahr became visibly aggravated when he couldn't get a table at the pricy and busy restaurant. After the fireworks, Rahr was informed he was banned from the establishment. He proceeded to write an angry, ALL CAPS email verbally assaulting the manager. The email included carbon copies to famous celebrities such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Donald Trump for reasons we will likely never uncover.
• 

  (#9) Chris Brown

  • 29

  Set to perform a series of concerts throughout Australia, Chris Brown was denied entry into the country shortly before he was supposed to depart. Australian immigrant officials rejected Brown's visa due to his history of domestic violence, mostly in reference to his assault on then-girlfriend Rihanna. While there are plenty of reasons to ban Brown from any country, Australia decided to force Brown into cancelling his string of tour stops there as well as in New Zealand.
• 

  (#10) Paris Hilton

  • 38

  Socialite and recreational cocaine user Paris Hilton found herself in hot waters at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas, as well. The heiress was caught with some white powder in her purse after being pulled over at the hotel. The Wynn banned Hilton from returning following the drug charges.

  Hilton has also been banned from entering Japan as a result of the Wynn Hotel incident. After flying all the way to Tokyo for a press tour, Hilton was denied entry by immigration officers for her criminal record. The personality was forced to turn her private jet around and go home.
• 

  (#11) John Travolta

  • 65

  Known Scientologist and rumored closet case John Travolta was scandalously banned from a luxurious New York spa after worker complaints. Apparently, male staffers reported to management that Travolta had made lewd comments and advances towards them during private massages. Allegedly, Travolta's bizarre, sexual antics caused the male masseuses he requested to refuse to take him as a client. The spa ultimately banned Travolta from the premises for 3 years. Travolta and his wife adamantly deny these accusations, asserting he was never banned from the spa, despite never going back.
• 

  (#12) Hugh Grant

  • 58

  Jon Stewart famously ripped Hugh Grant a new one while on a live tour with Stephen Colbert. When asked about the incident with Grant, Stewart said that he was the worst guest he's ever hosted on The Daily Show and that he would never be invited back. Aside from acting rude and claiming he had better places to be, Grant supposedly also complained about a clip the show used for the movie he was promoting. Stewart informed the audience that the clip was provided by Grant's publicist and concluded by adding, "Well, then make a better f*cking movie" if Grant hated it that much.

  (#13) Ozzy Osbourne

  • 70

  The oddball frontman of Black Sabbath was banned from the entire San Antonio, Texas, county after he was arrested for urinating on a relic. After drunkenly pissing on the Alamo Cenotaph, a monument dedicated to the Alamo, Osbourne was picked up by police. The city barred Osbourne from performing in San Antonio ever again, but the ban was ultimately lifted after he donated $10,000 to a charity that maintains the property. He ultimately revisited San Antonio and tensions were eased. 
• 

  (#14) Amy Winehouse

  • Dec. at 28 (1983-2011)

  Late singer Amy Winehouse struggled with the bottle all her life. Winehouse had many run-ins due to her unruly behavior, which resulted in one hotel banning her from drinking at their establishment. While on vacation in the Caribbean, Winehouse alienated guests at a hotel pool for her crude and drunken behavior. Winehouse was asked to stop drinking or leave the premises. The singer chose the latter and left for her villa next door.
• 

  (#15) Lil Wayne

  • 36

  Lil Wayne was banned from the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas before he even arrived. Hot off his sentence for possession of a weapon, Wayne was in town for a scheduled performance. The hotel decided to preemptively bar Wayne from staying there in order to avoid trouble.

  Lil Wayne later found himself "banned" from any and all NBA events (at least that's what he told his fans). Wayne took to Twitter to trash talk the NBA for disinviting him to all of their scheduled games and events. He claimed the decision was a result of a request from the Miami Heat, although representatives have claimed that his statements are inaccurate.
• 

  (#16) Alec Baldwin

  • 60

  Alec Baldwin, never sure when to stop talking, dolled out some jokes about buying mail order brides while on appearing on David Letterman. Philippine officials weren't too happy with the derogatory comments and followed up with a swift immigration ban. Though his remarks were mildly tame in comparison to Baldwin's long history of offensive commentary, Philippine officials didn't hesitate to take the opportunity to block Baldwin from entering the country. Baldwin issued an apology, calling the statement a misguided joke. Unfortunately for him, it has become increasingly difficult to discern what is and is not a joke to Baldwin.

  (#17) Britney Spears

  • 37

  Following the steps of her fellow Unholy Trinity gal pal, Britney Spears was also asked to never return to the Chateau Marmont. In the midst of her infamous 2007 break, Spears decided to dine at the Marmont. After covering her face in the gourmet meal in front of her, guests were visibly disturbed and complained about her "strange" behavior. The staff didn't hesitate to ask Spears to leave the premises "now and forever."
• 

  (#18) Blake Lively

  • 31

  Luckily the Disney council has forgiven her now, but actress Blake Lively used to be banned from the Happiest Place on Earth. As a teen, Lively was caught trying to sneak into Disneyland for free, but was quickly caught. She received a one year banishment from the theme park. The actress has paid her dues and is now welcome back into Mickey's arms.
• 

  (#19) Nicki Minaj

  • 36

  Nicki Minaj was swiftly kicked out and banned from returning to the Dorchester Hotel in London after an incident with her fans turned riotous. Minaj was swarmed by a rampant group of her fans after arriving at the hotel. Unhappy with her fans' aggressive and unruly behavior, the hotel decided to boot Minaj from the premises, hoping her loyal "Barbz" would follow. After staff reported that one of her fans graffitied inside one of the lifts, management had had just about enough. Minaj's London chaos didn't stop there. The singer was also forced to cancel a performance at a nightclub following a fight that broke out. 
• 

  (#20) Akon

  • 45

  Akon was banned from coming to Sri Lanka after his music video for "Sexy B*tch" with David Guetta displayed a Buddha statue in the background. Sri Lanka officials were offended that Akon's video featured the statue in a setting filled with inappropriate gyrating and bikini-clad women. Akoin was scheduled for a performance when protesters stormed the Maharaja television network and erupted in violence. Officials had no choice but to bar Akon's entry. Akon responded with an apology stating he understood the circumstances and why people were offended, although he had no clue the statue was even there.
• 

  (#21) Brad Pitt

  • 55

  Brad Pitt was banned from ever entering China after he starred in the film Seven Years in Tibet, in a role which portrayed him as an ally of the Dalai Lama's. Years after his being barred, Pitt was welcomed back into Shanghai while accompanying his wife and children on a press tour for Angelina Jolie's film Maleficent. His visit in Shanghai was Pitt's first steps into China since the unspoken ban, and it appeared as though tensions between the country and the actor have subsided.
• 

  (#22) Selena Gomez

  • 26

  China's new public enemy number one, pop star Selena Gomez was barred from performing or visiting the country after she posted a picture with the Dalai Lama. Her scheduled performances in Shanghai and Guangzhou for her Revival tour were subsequently cancelled. It appears as though Gomez's Instagrammable snapshot with the Dalai Lama was enough for China to take away any traveling plans the singer may have had.
