15 Lovable celebs who ruined their own careers (With Pictures)

7. Mel Gibson

Fans loved Mel Gibson the man as much as his movies. Mad Max was fun. Gibson’s directing and Oscar win for Braveheartwas the pinnacle of an already successful career that had elevated him within the elite of Hollywood, then it happened. A series of Gibson’s racist conversations were leaked, exposing him as the bigot and sexist man he really is. He has also been connected to involvement in protests via Twitter and Facebook which just begs the question: WHY? Anyway, fans of the Lethal Weapon movies can rest assured they if they got hit by a bus today they would not be missing another installment. In fact, unless financed with his own money, don’t bet on Gibson starring in any major movie ever again.
