Top 10 Celebrities Who Were Juvenile Delinquents


they may be celebrities but they had to
grow up like the rest of us and
sometimes that means making tough
choices
it goes back to an early comparable
experience I like that you guys aren’t
familiar with the story of what happened
it’s amazing
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
celebrities who are juvenile delinquents
this train requires a high school
diploma I swear to god I heard miss
penny like I told you I told you you
need a human in prison you need a high
school diploma before we begin we

to subscribe for more great content for
this list we’re taking a look at those
entertainers who had rocky childhoods in
the certain decisions they made while
growing up led to serious consequences
which the performers may or may not have
come to regret in their adult life he
told me that you stole a TV dog from BT
you know what this was around of time
with BT wasn’t playing my videos and
they were number 10
Dwayne the rock Johnson what you do at
times huh up north it’s impossible not
to love the rock from his wrestling days
to his movie days he’s always been
charming but it took a lot of work to
get to where he is now being arrested
multiple times before the age of 17 sure
sounds like a tough thing to get over
today it’s hard to picture an off-road
teenage Dwayne Johnson as it is to
picture him being involved in a theft
ring yet both happened in Hawaii I used
to get in trouble a lot do a lot of
things I should have been doing arrested
multiple times evicted from his
apartment at age 14 while living in
Hawaii he would target tourists stealing
upmarket clothing and jewelry and
shoplifting Snickers bars number nine
Stephen Fry day how dare you create a
world in which there is such misery that
is not awful a fascinating man as
intellectual as he is charismatic even
for I’ve worked to get where he is but
was a troubled youth nonetheless
expelled from school at 15 fries darkest
teen days came at age 17 arrested for
credit card fraud young Stephen spent
three months in prison after being found
in possession of a stolen card
it’s hard to believe yes but how he got
caught is suitably Stephen Fry he was
arrested in a four star hotel room after
buying classy shoes and an Ingersoll
watch mind you it also didn’t help that
the hotel he chose was directly across
the street from the police station
number eight Mike Tyson this is one
person you definitely do not want to get
physical with before he was the youngest
heavyweight champion of all time Mike
Tyson had his fair share of run-ins with
the law snatching a purse at the age of
twelve was only part of history during
which he was arrested multiple times
before the age of 13 young Tyson’s life
of crime however led to his eventual
break as it was a detention center
counselor who first saw his potential as
a boxer and introduced him to custom
auto who not only helped him become the
heavyweight champion but also became his
legal guardian
number seven drew barrymore and that’s a
hard lesson but it was a very good
lesson for me Drew Barrymore’s adult
life has had its bolder moments but they
pale in comparison to her childhood a
star at seven thanks to a role in ET the
extra-terrestrial she became a smoker by
age nine added booze to the mix at 11
pot at 12 and cocaine at 13 either you
make it out of you down in it it’s very
scary a studio 54 regular even as a
child
Barrymore entered rehab at 14 and after
a suicide attempt eventually lived with
David Crosby for a few months who was
himself known for substance abuse issues
in an effort to remain sober number six
Snoop Dogg but I know some people that
know some people that robbed some people
selling weed while in high school is one
thing but Snoop took it to a whole other
level and that level involved cocaine
trafficking that’s not to say he didn’t
also sell weed Cameron Diaz can attest
to that but I remember him he was very
tall and skinny were lots of ponytails
in his head and I’m pretty sure I bought
weed from him during his post high
school years he was in and out of prison
continuing with his criminal actions
traveling with a gang
and possessing illegal drugs and even
firearms although snoop has regular drug
related brushes with the law his arrest
in 1993 was for something much more
serious murder detained in connection
with a killing conducted by his
bodyguard
noop was cleared of all charges soon
after drop it like it’s hot please try
to get at you
pockets like his hot pocket like a child
number 5 mm but I’m sorry mama for
cleaning up my closet it’s just time I
was angry right let me maybe so never
miss Dex heart attack you know growing
up without knowing his father and always
moving from town to town was not an easy
life remin ‘m especially when he
constantly fought with his mother will
lead to the point where his mom filed a
suit against his school mm eventually
dropped out at age 17
due to poor grades and poor attendance
marshall mathers troubled youth also
introduced him to his two-time spouse
Kim and set up his mother’s infamous 10
million dollar lawsuit for slander
[Music]
number four Merle Haggard while I can
steer biggest thrill of all it’s hard to
picture country icon Merle Haggard
beating someone during a burglary
attempt but that was when he was barely
a teen it safe to say Merle turned his
life around but when he was young he was
sent to a juvenile detention center
multiple times for larceny and truancy
and even escaped going to prison however
is what turned things around for him he
earned a high school equivalency diploma
and played in the prison band Haggard’s
post jailhouse success even earned him a
pardon from then California Governor
Ronald Reagan running
[Music]
number three danny trejo
i went to do it all so many times I
thought Mexicans were supposed to go an
actor with over 300 film credits sure
has a lot of stories to tell and not
just fictional ones either beginning as
a petty criminal alongside his uncle and
shady mentor Trejo eventually earned
jail time for stabbing a man with a
broken bottle additionally his early
life was also littered with drug use
from marijuana to whatever he could get
his hands on Trey hos drug life
eventually led him to be arrested in
1965 for selling drugs to an undercover
police officer later completing an in
prison 12-step program Franco became a
drug counselor and worked to help others
struggling with addiction number two
city sent way Modena hey oh how did you
do young baby usually when someone’s
been shot nine times they die but not
city sent it takes a special kind of
person to be able to survive that and
his past no doubt hardened him to the
pains and struggles of adulthood being
born to a cocaine dealer is not the best
start to a childhood and city became a
drug dealer himself at age 12 his life
is a pusher however went downhill when a
school’s metal detectors indicated he
was carrying a gun following a pair of
arrests in 1994 city was sent to a
juvenile detention center and decided to
turn his life around
ultimately adopting his fitty cent
moniker but good night where were you
shot where like it’s none of my
grandmother’s house but where are their
fathers before we unveil our number one
pick here are some honorable mentions
it’s disappointing to me I wouldn’t have
done this job if the president said
everything is on the table
I respect the president if summit
president asked me to do something I
would do it
[Music]
another sense is about some people
refusing to give second chances
regardless of how earnest or how honest
or how sincere a person is when they’re
trying to get their life back together
number one Mark Wahlberg that’s my one
hack that you give me a second chance
and allow me to go free today blinding
someone is a hard thing to live with and
it’s something Mark Wahlberg has lived
with his entire adult life when he was
16 he beat a Vietnamese man which
resulted in the victim supposedly going
blind in one eye it was only much later
in life that the victim revealed he’d
actually lost the eye during the Vietnam
War
before that though Wahlberg was addicted
to cocaine at only 13 years old and
dropped out of school entirely well
unfortunately a lot of my friends are
the better in jail thankfully a parish
priest helped him get back on track and
his reflection behind bars prompted him
to make a change one that appears to
have stuck because I’ve been here for
chasing you away do you agree with our
picks check out these other great clips
