10. Olga Korbut
It has got to be hard being a professional athlete, especially at such a young age. You get so famous and successful and the human body just can’t last that long at a sport. So what happens after the athletic career is over? Well, do not ask Olga Korbut. The gymnast from Belarus was nabbed for shoplifting. The total value of the theft? Less than $20. She allegedly stole $19.35 worth of groceries from a grocery store in Atlanta, Georgia. Was she starving? The contents were pretty high class for that: figs, seasonings, tea, and cheese. All we can say is: yum.

9. Bai Ling
Although Bai Ling usually looks pretty and fresh-faced, her mug shot after an alleged shoplifting arrest was anything but flattering. The actress was fined $700 for stealing from a shop at LAX, items which totaled just $16.22. She was stealing magazines and some batteries and was also guilty of disturbing the peace. She pleaded guilty and issued a public apology shortly thereafter. She said that she had no intention of stealing the items…sure. This case just left us scratching our heads. Seriously, why would a celeb need to steal such petty items? They really do not have $20 lying around?
