8. Shaquille O’Neal
Legend and pro basketball player Shaquille O’Neal got himself into trouble? Unfortunately, yes, he did. The huge athlete was in hot water after he made a racist comment about another professional basketball player, Yao Ming, who is Asian. Apparently, Shaq had mocked Yao Ming (on camera) by trying to mimic the Chinese language. You can guess how that turned out. Not only did Shaq look uneducated and childish, but he received a lot of backlash from the gesture, both in the United States and abroad. He later apologized for his actions and racist behavior. Come on, Shaq, we thought you were better than that!
