Sometimes we all go a little crazy. The bad thing about being a celebrity is that when that happens, there is almost always a camera trained on your every movement. Who knows if these rants are really indicative of who each of these people really are, but they sure are fun to gossip about!

We all the heard the on set rant by Christian Bale spewed while he was filming the latest installment in the Terminator franchise where he screamed at a lighting tech for moving a light during a particularly emotional scene.

During a radio interview in 2000 John Rocker gave his thoughts about playing baseball in New York with the following quote. I'd retire first. “It's the most hectic, nerve-racking city. Imagine having to take the 7 Train to the ballpark looking like you're riding through Beirut next to some kid with purple hair, next to some queer with AIDS, right next to some dude who just got out of jail for the fourth time, right next to some 20-year-old mom with four kids. It's depressing... The biggest thing I don't like about New York are the foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?” No wonder his carrer ended shortly after… Career Killer Factor: 8 out of 10

2005 was not a good year for Tom Cruise. He started by criticizing Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants following a bout of post partum depression citing that chemical imbalances weren’t real, and that psychiatry is pseudoscience.

Celebrities are people just like us, capable of throwing fits and then regretting them all the same, however unfortunately for them, when they do it, it usually winds up on national television. Can you think of a celeb moment that tops any one of these?
