10. Joshua Jackson

You’ve probably seen this guy in movies such as Scream 2, Urban Legend and Cruel Intentions. If not, you might at least have seen him in Dawson’s Creek. He was arrested in 2002 for assaulting a security guard at a hockey game, but he was released after paying $1.000 bail.

9. Mischa Barton

This beauty, well known from the TV serie O.C. was charged with four misdemeanors in early 2008. She had been driving under influence of alcohol, driving without a valid driver license and possessing marijuana.

8. Woody Harrelson

This terrific actor has won the American Emmy Award and the Academy Award. He’s been acting in movies such as Natural Born Killers and The People vs. Larry Flynt. In 1982 he was arrested for disorderly conduct when he was dancing in the middle of a street. He was charged for resisting arrest as well since he tried to escape from the police.

7. Nicole Ritchie

Nicole is the well known daughter of the singer Lionel Ritchie, and she’s also good friend of Paris Hilton. She also had one of the lead roles in the reality show Simple Life. In 2006 she was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. Ritchie recently became mother of a little girl, so let’s all hope that this was the last time she was in trouble with the law.

6. Hugh Grant

This man has been playing the leading part in plenty of the best movies the last two decades. You might remember him from Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Bridget Jones’s Diary or Love Actually, just to remind you of a few. In 1995 he was arrested for buying oral sex from a prostitute. He had to pay a $1,180 fine and he was also sentenced two years probation.

5. Kiefer Sutherland

He’s not the first and propably not the last celebrity to get arrested for driving drunk. The Golden Globe winning actor Sutherland did this twice and that made him end up in prison for 48 days. He was released in January 2008 after spending christmas as well as his birthday in jail.

4. Keanu Reeves

Have you seen Speed and The Matrix movies? If so I’m sure you enjoyed watching this handsome guy, who received his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2005. Just as so many other celebrities he’s done the mistake to drive under influence of alcohol though. He was arrested for it in 1993.

3. Matthew McConaughey

We’ve all been charmed by him in films such as How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and The Wedding Planner. I’m not sure that the police was as charmed in 1999 when they arrested him in his home for possession of marijuana and violating the noise ordinance though. The drug charge was dropped but he pled guilty of violating noise ordinance and was sentenced to pay a $50 fine.

2. Lindsay Lohan

This girl started her career early and she’s been acting in Freaky Friday, Just my Luck, Herbie: Fully Loaded and Mean Girls for example. Unfortunately she’s been having problems with drugs and in 2007 she was arrested and charged for cocaine possession. Just a few months later she was arrested again for possessing of cocaine, transporting narcotics and driving under influence of drugs. She was convicted and the sentence was one day in jail, 10 days of community service, three years on probation and she was ordered to complete an 18-month alcohol education program.

1. Paris Hilton

Except from being the oldest of the kids in the Hilton (as in Hilton Hotels) family, she is also well known for her role in the reality show Simple Life. When it has been a big event in Hollywood you can be sure that you’ll se Paris in the pictures afterwards. She’s everywhere, or so it seems. In 2006 she was arrested for driving under influence of alcohol. Her driving license was suspended and she got a probation period for 36 months plus a fine. In the beginning of 2007 she was arrested twice for driving without a license and that gave her a sentence to serve 45 days in jail of which she had to serve 22.

Now you know who is a law-breaker and who is not. Who will be the next celebrity to get arrested? I’m fairly sure that we’ll have the answer soon. Keep your eyes open to see who it will be.
