Is Astrology the Reason These Celebrities Stumbled?

These celebrities had the misfortune of falling from their lofty pedestals as cameras caught every juicy moment. While their personal ruin was entertainment for many, it may have been less about bad celebrity choices and more about their place in the zodiac. Find out if these personalities were victims of fate or of their own misbehavior.

March 21 – April 19

Amanda Bynes, born April 3, 1986

After a slew of strange behavior beginning in 2012, including public intoxication, crashing her car and making strange accusations about her family, Bynes was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold and eventually disappeared from the spotlight. As an Aries, it's likely that Bynes' impulsive, reckless behavior was influenced by her star sign. Aries is unpredictable, which is worsened by drugs or alcohol. Thankfully, this sign is also motivated to succeed, and it appears Bynes, who has studied fashion for the past year, is doing just that.

Chris Brown, born May 5, 1989

In 2009, Brown was convicted and sentenced to five years of probation and 1,400 hours of community service for assaulting his then-girlfriend Rhianna. In 2016, Brown was again arrested, this time for an alleged assault against a woman in his Los Angeles home. As a Taurus, Brown is undoubtedly stubborn and unwilling to learn from his mistakes, but his acts of violence against others have little to do with his star sign. Typically peaceful, Taurus prefers harmony in the home and that means Brown's behavior stems from his personality, not the planets.

Shia LaBeouf, born June 11, 1986

LaBeouf's strange public behavior includes spitting on a cop, drunk driving, plagiarism, dissing his costars and directors, wearing a paper bag over his head and allowing fans to do anything they want to him in a public exhibit titled "I Am Sorry." Confusing, unpredictable behavior is actually typical of an over-stressed Gemini, known as the "two-face" of the zodiac. Due to Gemini's limited ability to self-reflect and need for approval, they often react from a place of ego instead of emotional stability. Adding intoxicants to this perfect storm only hastens its downpour.

June 21 – July 22

Lindsay Lohan, born July 2, 1986

Lohan was a tabloid regular, due to her repeated arrests for DUI, drug use, theft and assault. After multiple stints in rehab, Lohan disappeared from the spotlight. Since emotional Cancer struggles to open up about their true feelings, they may sink into addiction to help them cope with life. If a Cancer comes from a dysfunctional home, they often re-create childhood trauma as adults to work through their feelings of pain. Unfortunately for Lohan, that emotional work was done in public.

July 23 – August 22

Hope Solo, born July 30, 1981

In 2014, Solo was arrested on allegations that she assaulted her half-sister and nephew. Although the charges were later dismissed by a judge, prosecutors took the unusual step of filing an appeal believing they could get a conviction on the U.S. soccer star. Solo denies the accusations, claiming she was the victim, but conflicting reports have emerged damaging her credibility. Typical of a Leo, Solo admits no responsibility, and it is likely she believes she's telling the truth. Leo is immensely strong but suffers from their inability to accept their own fault in situations that go wrong.

LeAnn Rimes, born August 28, 1982

This country music star was caught cheating on her then-husband in 2008 with her married co-star, Eddie Cibrian. The pair later divorced their respective spouses and married each other, but the scandal left a lasting stain on their reputations. Cheating can be a common behavior for Virgo if they are emotionally unstable. This sign often derives their sense of worth through others, and is prone to low self-esteem and anxiety, leading them to fall into a cycle of infidelity that prevents them from finding lasting love.

September 23 – October 22

T.I., born September 25, 1980

This well-known rapper has an also well-known rap sheet that includes illegally purchasing firearms, possession of firearms, possession of drugs and more. Even while incarcerated, T.I. was punished for allowing his wife Tiny to pleasure him during visiting hours. As a Libra, it's no wonder T.I. is drawn to romantic bliss, but it's far more unusual that he would commit a crime. Libra is the justice-seeker of the zodiac and has a strong moral compass. For this rapper to behave the way he has, his internal sense of right and wrong must be severely damaged.

October 23 – November 22

Lamar Odom, born November 6, 1979

Drug and alcohol abuse have plagued this basketball star. In 2015, Odom was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel from an apparent drug overdose that nearly cost him his life. Conflict is known to cause emotional turmoil for Scorpio, and due to their limited ability to cope with stress, addiction can be possible. This stinging sign is known to say terrible things when they're pushed to the brink, but their bark is always worse than their bite. Fortunately for Odom, Scorpio is also incredibly resilient and able to bounce back from even the most difficult experiences.

November 23 – December 21

Britney Spears, born December 2, 1981

Few can forget the public meltdown that left this pop icon bald and seething in front of cameras. While Sagittarius is generally stronger than most signs, they can be pushed over the edge. Often, dysfunctional childhoods play a large part in how this adventure-loving sign forms relationships. Those relationships have a strong impact on how Sagittarius responds to the world. When this archer feels unable to trust the ones closest to them, they will likely engage in self-sabotage as a way to bring caring, nurturing individuals around them for safe keeping.

December 22 – January 19

Tiger Woods, born December 30, 1975

Considered one of the all-time golfing greats, Tiger Woods is also a notorious philanderer. When headlines erupted with news of his numerous affairs while married, his spotless reputation and endorsement deals crumbled. Capricorns are notoriously hard-working and tend to have tunnel vision while working toward their goals, making them disappointing partners. However, cheating is not a typical move for this goat sign. Capricorn is proud of doing things right the first time, making it highly unlikely his place on the zodiac contributed to his lusty pursuits.

January 20 – February 18

Paris Hilton, born February 17, 1981

This hotel heiress and socialite served jail time for driving under the influence and being in possession of cocaine. Aquarius is considered the most free-spirited, light-hearted sign in the zodiac, with a strong association of drug and alcohol use. Often uncommitted, Aquarius hates rules and likes defining life on their own terms, which can lead to poor decisions and a lack of understanding consequences. Add a privileged lifestyle to the mix and it's a recipe for trouble.

February 19 – March 20

Justin Bieber, born March 1, 1994

Numerous arrests for DUI, driving with an expired license, assault and more have firmly established this star as "troubled." After a meltdown on stage during an LA performance, fans worried he might be at his breaking point. As a Pisces, it is common to get overwhelmed and emotional at the slightest provocation. With the high-stress demands of being in the limelight, it's no wonder Beiber has acted out and become reckless. This deeply sensitive sign has to surround themselves with stable people to support them through their hardest times. If they don't, they're likely to go haywire and self-destruct.
