Mariah Carey and Other Stars Who Love Trouble

Mariah Carey is a one of kind singer, businesswoman, and music icon. Her life has been filled with ups and downs. Consider her initial marriage to her domineering manager, wedding and divorce with Nick Cannon, the birth of twin boys, and her troubled sister.

Mariah Carey’s sister, Alison Carey, has lived a dark life, filled with bad choices, drugs and more. It’s been reported that Alison has now been diagnosed HIV positive, arrested for prostitution recently.

Not all celebrities come from healthy all American backgrounds. In fact, sometimes the celebrity themselves have troubled pasts. Will Smith was once arrested for aggravated assault and battery. Jay Z was arrested and convicted of stabbing a record executive, serving three years in prison.

To no one’s surprise, Vanilla Ice was once arrested for an illegal possession of a firearm and assault and battery. 50 cent plead guilty to drug dealing and possession early in his life. Before stardom, Bruno Mars was arrested for cocaine possession, serving 200 hours of community service.
