    14 Problematic Celebrities That Need to Stay in 2016

    If we've learned anything in 2016, it's that celebrities (no matter how much we like them, and now matter how much we hate to admit it) are problematic as hell. While all of our faves have, at one point or another in their careers, done things that have left bad tastes in our mouths or made us look at them in a different light, these 14 celebs took it to a whole new level this past year.

    People like Scott Baio, Tomi whatever her name is, and other Neo-Nazi Trump-supporters won’t be on this list (because they are FAR beyond problematic), and the people who are included have been broken down into three different categories: 'Consistently Problematic,' 'Really Problematic,' and 'Criminally Problematic.' The 'Consistently Problematic' people are ones who we’ve given many chances to, but still don’t seem to want to change their ways. The 'Really Problematic' group consists of people who take from other cultures, people who cash in on social justice, and those whose ignorance encourages apathy, separation, and attacks on one group from another (ex: men v. women or white v. black). The last group, as their name suggests, are comprised of people who have been accused of, or actually committed, a very serious crime. And these distinctions are made because not all problematic actions are equal.

    Without further ado, here are the 14 problematic celebrities that need to be cancelled, immediately, and left behind.
