Kate Upton - Model Kate Upton felt the need to slam Colin Kaepernick and other NFL players in September 2016 who protested the National Anthem in wake of the recent cases of police brutality against Black people in America. Offended that they chose to express their concerns on 9/11, she took to Twitter to air out her frustration, but she got shut down in a hurry by just about everyone on the internet and even some familiar faces (did you see that perfect read by Jamele Hill?).(Photo: Kate Upton via Twitter)

Yep.(Photo: Raven-Symone via Twitter)

Shad Moss - When Shad Moss talks, it seems as something polarizing always comes out of his mouth. The former 106 & Park host said in July 2016 that he doesn't consider himself Black either, with his reasoning being he has no idea what his ancestors were doing and, as far as he's concerned, he's "mixed."(Photo: Bow Wow via Twitter)

50 Cent - Is 50 Cent homophobic? Who knows? But judging from this tweet in 2010, folks were convinced that was the case. The rapper responded to blogger Perez Hilton, saying he contacted a homie to "shoot up a gay wedding" to make him feel better for being called a "douchebag." Needless to say, 50 was dragged to hell and back for these awful words.(Photo: 50 Cent via Twitter)
