Celebrities Who Treat Their Fans Like Trash
For celebrities, it's not hard to lose sight of the little people. While it can't be easy to be the center of attention, stars have the choice to either be cool about their fans' overzealous adulation or to be a total celebri-jerk about it.

Love isn't easy, but it's a whole lot harder when your significant other treats you like utter trash. Though Hollywood relationships are notoriously short-lived (blame the pressures of fame and red carpet-worthy egos,) some stars are undeniably terrible partners. From Gwyneth Paltrow, who's totally willing to admit she's hard to date, to Chris Brown, who was put on probation for his disturbing crimes against Rihanna, the spectrum of inconsiderate partners is notably vast. There are hundreds of ways to hurt the one you love — and even more if you've got money.
