While being rich and famous might sound appealing on paper, there is one major downside to being a celebrity that isn’t often considered, and that is the fact that their embarrassing moments will live on for eternity on the internet.

So, without further ado — and with my sincerest apologies to all of the names involved — here are some celebrity moments that genuinely make me want to curl up from second-hand embarrassment. Enjoy!
