15 Hollywood stars with shocking criminal records (With Pictures)

6. Jay Z

Another rapper who is deserving of his on-stage persona is Jay Z. Strangely, given his more mainstream position in the music industry, you’d think that he of all rappers would be the one with the clean rap sheet. But it’s not the case. Actually, he once stabbed a record executive in the stomach in a nightclub. We’ll allow that sentence to sink in for a second. Amazingly, stabbing someone apparently wasn’t enough to get you put in jail back in 1999. Instead, he was given three years of probation. It’s a little terrifying to think that someone could walk free after almost committing a murder.
