<a rel="attachment wp-att-13448" href="http://www.pinstripemag.com/?attachment_id=13448"></a><a title="A Few Celebrities That Have Been Killed by the Internet" href="http://www.pinstripemag.com/2011/06/celebrities-killed-internet.html" target="_self">Celebrities</a> are just like everyone else. They too have their moments where they say dumb things. However, when they go off page they get criticized for a very long time after that. Here are a few top celebrity outbursts that they wish they could take back.

1) <strong>Michael Richards</strong>, most famously known for his role as Kramer in TV series’ “Seinfeld”, was severely criticized for his not so funny stand up comedy show in a LA comedy club back in November 2006 when he started blurting out racial comments at a few people in the audience. The incident was caught on camera, and was all over the news as fast as lightning. He later responded by saying that he was not a racist and that he was deeply sorry for everything he said.

2) <strong>John Mayer </strong>was considered a profoundly liberal person for someone of his age until he proved for sure that he really wasn’t. In an interview with playboy magazine, he compared his former girlfriend Jessica Simpson to sexual napalm, used the “N” word reflexively and said that his orientation was being dictated by a white supremacist. He later apologized for it by saying that he was just being arrogant and was on a quest to be clever.

3) During an event which included Hollywood’s elite in support of the Katrina catastrophe back in 2005. <strong><a title="Kanye West" href="http://www.pinstripemag.com/2011/06/kanye-west-my-beautiful-dark-twisted-fantasy-review.html" target="_self">Kanye West</a></strong> was asked to show his support for all the refugees, but instead he came and said that then President George Bush didn’t support black people. Four years after this, he again landed up in the tabloids for his infamous “intermission” scene on the VMA’s where he interrupted Taylor Swift.

4) <strong><a title="Charlie Sheen" href="http://www.pinstripemag.com/2011/06/jon-cryer-charlie-sheen-healthy-stay-sober.html" target="_self">Charlie Sheen</a></strong> on The Alex Jones’ Show expressed his dislike for Alcoholics Anonymous calling them a cult organization and a bunch of losers. Best part was that unlike the rest on this list, he didn’t apologize.

5) Last but not the least would have to be <strong>Mel Gibson</strong>. From all the threats he made to his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva to the sexist and anti Semitic remarks he made to a few cops when he was pulled over for drunken driving. He later apologized by calling his rants those of a drunkard. Four months later he told his girlfriend that she would be raped by a group of black men because of the clothes she wore, while using the “N” word.

At the end of the day, I still do feel that <a title="celebrities" href="http://www.pinstripemag.com/2011/06/celebrities-killed-internet.html" target="_self">celebrities</a> might let their eccentricities get in the way of the things they say, but honestly though, they are the ones who decided to live their lives in front of the media and that’s what they have to deal with.
