From Hollywood legends to modern-day stars, these tales reveal shocking secrets, controversies, and unforgettable moments.
Jeremy Bieber
Jeremy Bieber is the father of pop superstar Justin Bieber. However, he reportedly wasn’t around much during Justin’s childhood and only reappeared once Justin became successful.

Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love
In 1992, Vanity Fair claimed that Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love used substances while Courtney was pregnant with Frances Bean. The article led to Child Services briefly removing their daughter from their home.
Kurt took his own life two years later, with Courtney blaming the article. She denies ever using anything while pregnant.

To make matters worse, Kris allegedly helped sell Kim’s private tape for publicity.
Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson faced criticism for his parenting when he dangled his baby, Blanket, over a balcony in Berlin. The incident shocked fans worldwide.

Kit Culkin
Macaulay Culkin, the child star of Home Alone, had a tough relationship with his father, Kit Culkin. Macaulay grew up in a cramped home with his mom, dad, and seven siblings. When his career took off, Kit’s jealousy reportedly made his behavior worse.
