when she was 11 her dad’s leaked
voicemail calling her a rude thoughtless
little pig made headlines these families
prove that fame and fortune does not in
fact bring happiness welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten
dysfunctional celebrity families and
also the anniversary of so launched on
JC’s elevator ride to pay for this list
we’re looking at those families that
have amassed fandom and wealth through
their celebrity status yet have proved
some form of dysfunction through their
actions do you think you are or were
addicted to chaos I think so we’re
mainly focusing on families with a film
or television background so we’re
excluding political families like the
Kennedys number 10 the Barrymore’s
drugs can really destroy families can’t
they no I tried it for like a year and
then I was like never again can I ever
touch this stuff and I haven’t but you
dance naked see that’s what we want to
know this famous Hollywood family was
plagued with drug and alcohol problems
beginning with John Barrymore’s lifelong
addictions
his mental health
eventually deteriorated and he passed
his troubles down to his son John Drew
who also suffered from drug and alcohol
addiction eventually became a recluse
and lived out his final days in
isolation you sure that sterile
you’ve been perhaps more famous is his
daughter Drew Barrymore’s addictions
as she was smoking pot and snorting
cocaine before she even became a
teenager
luckily drew story is a happier one as
she is now drug-free and a Hollywood
a-lister it’s the first time in my life
that my age has met up with where my
life is and it’s perfect I would love
being for it that’s fantastic that’s how
you see number 9 the Hogan’s
the Hogan’s perhaps most famous for
patriarch Hulk Hogan and his successful
wrestling career have seen their fair
share of catastrophes over the years
come on who wouldn’t want to be the
younger guys great after 24 years of
marriage the same guy oh you come here
gals out there will know so wake up
after Linda Hogan filed for divorce from
the Hulkster she dated a 19-year old you
had an affair with Brookes friend who’s
more her age than your age
but perhaps even more gross was when the
Hulk himself came under scrutiny for
dating someone who looked eerily like
his daughter Brooke drawing incestuous
comments his ex-wife was arrested for
driving under the influence in 2012 and
his son was even imprisoned for reckless
driving when he almost killed himself
and his passenger in a collision the car
was was just completely out of control
it was it was beyond anything that I
could do to recover it here’s a tip stay
off the roads when the Hogan’s are
driving telling no reckless eyeballin
what kind of driver is this guy a very
good driver are you Adam yeah hi what I
cry don’t be a comedian either number 8
the O’Neal’s right crazy the O’Neal’s
are quite the dysfunctional bunch as
everyone seems to have had run-ins with
somebody or something what bothers me
the most is that there was turmoil
during my love affair with Farah
a lot of it caused by my family by my
kids actress Tatum O’Neal was arrested
for drug possession and also claims that
she was abused by her father Ryan O’Neal
growing up which stemmed from his own
addictions my friend Vivian Kubrick
Stanley’s daughter said that my dad
punched me in the face when I got
nominated but that’s about it not only
that she claims that her heroin use
negatively impacted her relationship
with her children
Ryan’s son Tatum’s brother Redmond was
arrested on suspicion of possessing meth
officials say Redmond O’Neal is back in
jail after a drug-related probation
violation while another O’Neal Griffin
was arrested for driving under the
influence proving once again that drug
use is never a good thing Ryan didn’t
want me in I got him I call him Ryan now
I because you know I’ve had to let go of
him as being my dad not that he was ever
really a dad number seven the Phillips
brokenhearted I’m so sad yeah Mackenzie
Phillips perhaps best known for her role
as rebellious teenager Julie on one day
at a time
damit shrimp this is my crisis alleges
that she had a rough childhood okay I
didn’t expect the venom I didn’t expect
the hatred I didn’t expect people to
make fun of something that to me was
personally devastating before becoming
addicted to cocaine and being fired from
her show she claims that her father
injected her with drugs at a very young
age and began an incestuous relationship
with her that lasted over ten years and
if that’s not the definition of
dysfunction we don’t know what is the
book was basically already written and
that she was going to be writing about
the incestuous relationship between she
and my father
however as John Phillips had passed away
years before Mackenzie came forward with
her story the accusations reliability
has been called into question your mom
other people said we don’t know your mom
said I have every reason to believe this
did not happen
number six the Gosselin’s I think
sometimes we just focus in on the stress
and forget what we have the Gosselin’s
are known for their hit reality show Jon
and Kate Plus eight which chronicles the
lives of the pair as they try to raise
their twins and sextuplets I’m not
talking about this is good forget Peapod
it’s great okay you need a panting no
you need to stop yelling a difficult
task in and of itself it would soon
prove to be much harder as the
Gosselin’s went through a difficult
public divorce severe money issues and
Jon’s eventual departure yeah okay and I
have decided to separate as if taking
care of eight children wasn’t hard
enough doing it as a single mother made
it all the more strenuous our bank
account that had had two hundred and
thirty-one thousand dollars in it now
had one thousand three hundred forty six
dollars however that didn’t stop Kate
from starring in many different reality
shows including the revised Kate Plus
eight here’s the deal
it’s Spring Break we have fun things
planned if you don’t know okay goodbye
that’s it that was as easy as that
number five the Thompsons can we start
now you know the Thompsons as the honey
booboo family stars of the controversial
reality show here comes honey boo boo
the family is infamous for their
behavior both on and off camera
just your feet smell dis is better call
my dog who smells worse with many of
their hijinks making it into the show
including mama June’s controversial
go-go juice that she feeds Alana
however possibly the worst of it occurs
off screen mama June and the child
molester the story was shocking I mean
honey Boo Boo’s mother reunited with the
man who did prison time for molesting
her oldest daughter chickadee in 2014
it came to light that June was in a
relationship with Mark Anthony McDaniel
a registered sex offender who had
molested Jun’s own daughter when she was
younger
hey the time molester mama he did this
to me why would you let him come around
the girls knowing what he did and
reportedly done it to another girl
frankly it’s no wonder TLC canceled the
show
I told Ana that not to bring up the past
again number for the Lohan’s are you an
addict yeah it really is a shame what
happened to Lindsay Lohan’s if you like
really pretty thank you so you agree
what you think you’re really pretty oh I
don’t know the cute actress was once an
up-and-coming star starring in Mean
Girls and other box office successes
before succumbing to the lavish
lifestyle and becoming addicted to drugs
and alcohol 30 days in jail on the
reckless driving case 30 days in jail on
the first DUI case consecutive and 30
days in jail on the second DUI case
consecutive that’s 90 days in jail she
has since been in and out of rehab
countless times and has been served
numerous hours of community service more
legal trouble for the Lohan family this
time no it’s not Lindsay instead it’s
her father he wound up in handcuffs
after yet another domestic dispute her
father Michael is no winner either
serving jail time for suspected domestic
violence when he allegedly beat his
girlfriend and numerous drug arrests
including a DUI like father like
daughter
number three the Kardashians with
successful father figures like Olympic
gold medalist Bruce Jenner and OJ
Simpson’s defense attorney Robert
Kardashian said did you commit these
crimes and he said I did not I am
innocent
I did not commit these crimes and he
started to weep it’s a shame what these
socialites have done to the family name
then a sex tape of Kim and her former
boyfriend hip-hop singer Ray J surfaced
it featured numerous angles a costume
change some cinema verite Kim’s sex tape
and infamously quick marriage to Kris
Humphries tarnished her name and her
relationship with Kanye West has only
added ridicule to her reputation
everybody says who does he think he is I
just told you who I thought I was Oh God
according to the haters Keeping Up with
the Kardashians is a prime example of
just how shallow and insincere this
family really is we had brunch at
Valentino’s home he invited the whole
family to his castle many critics have
since called the family famous for being
famous and have found humor in their
attempts at relevance we’ll let you be
the judge Kylie I just don’t think
that’s appropriate number two the
Duggars of course with this many kids we
do things a little different than most
families
it is it all is easy
almost nothing beats the dysfunction of
a reality TV family even if that family
is comprised of devout independent
Baptists with the kids all sporting
matching J names the family from 17 18
and 19 Kids and Counting is all about
wholesomeness humility and the man
upstairs
no one got engaged we added holding
hands in the mix we’re trying to save
the physical aspect of our relationship
for marriage
they don’t use birth control hence the
19 Kids and Counting homeschool their
little ones and are basically all about
values however the Duggars have not
avoided controversy bombshell sex abuse
allegations against Josh Duggar in 2015
it came to light that eldest son Josh
Duggar had allegedly molested five girls
when he was a teen for whom were his own
sisters Josh made some very bad
decisions and he’s going to suffer the
consequences of this decision
if that’s not dysfunction we don’t know
what is there’s a difference between
forgiveness and trust that’s not the
same thing you know you forgive someone
and then you have boundaries before we
look at our most dysfunctional celebrity
family here are a few honorable or in
this case dishonorable mentions losing
track of 11 year-old Francis being at
the Grammys is just the latest in a
series of bizarre turns in Courtney’s
world yesterday she was a no-show at the
courthouse in Beverly Hills where she
was to appear for a hearing on drug
possession charges stemming from an
arrest last October the 68 year olds
oldest son Cameron is serving a 10-year
sentence for drug dealing which is bad
enough but after failing a drug test at
the federal prison in Pennsylvania he
was moved into an isolated cell ladies
don’t I get drunker August and time
don’t piss up my god don’t be don’t
drink don’t take drugs son please if you
have a sacred condom your father owned a
bar and the family lived above the bar
and so and it was like a like a the kind
of bar where the party would continue
afterwards at you guys upstairs
apartment after the bar would close and
that you wandered into the booze by the
age of two you had your
first ring yeah how hard was that for
you to watch her someone you loved
dearly go through it in the public eye
because it was it was everywhere
number one the Jacksons the most famous
of all dysfunctional celebrity families
The Jacksons proved to be the worst as
well one time I tried to call him dad
Wow he said nice I’m Joseph you call me
Joseph
I’m Joseph to you patriarch Joe Jackson
is well known for his abuse towards his
children with Michael testifying that he
would often with them with a belt he
apparently physically and emotionally
traumatized Michael leading to various
problems as an adult your father used to
insult you you told me in Las Vegas your
father used to talk about your nose yeah
so I can understand why you wanted to
change your appearance it makes sense
Michael’s infamous trial regarding child
molestation didn’t help and only sullied
the Jackson name further in the media
for a family that sang such catchy songs
there was a darkness backstage the
cameras could rarely catch
do you agree with our list I can’t thank
you enough for that
what dysfunctional celebrity family do
