Mindhole Blowers: 20 Strange, Inane and Stupid Things Celebrities Said

Listen, as someone who has spent most of her life with foot firmly planted in mouth, I know how it is. Who among us has not uttered something she immediately wanted to take back? But you know what’s cool? We’re not celebrities, so the likelihood is, only our friends and family poke fun at us. Not Sorry, famous people…this one’s at your expense.

In poking around, I tried to make sure there was some sort of “evidence” or back-up on these quotes, because interestingly, one of the most horrifying quotes (attributed to Mariah Carey) was disproved.

(See more Celebrity Facts.)

1. Sean Connery, 1965

“I don’t think there is anything particularly wrong about hitting a woman—although I don’t recommend doing it in the same way that you’d hit a man. An openhanded slap is justified—if all other alternatives fail and there has been plenty of warning. If a woman is a bitch, or hysterical, or bloody-minded continually, then I’d do it. I think a man has to be slightly advanced, ahead of the woman.”


2. Chris Brown, 2012

“Can I get your number? I promise I won’t beat you!”


3. John Mayer, 2009

“If they’re using dry paper, they aren’t washing all of themselves. It’s just unclean. So if I go in a woman’s house and see the toilet paper there, I’ll explain this. And if she doesn’t make the adjustment to baby wipes, I’ll know she’s not completely clean.”


16. Ke$ha, 2011

“When you talk about postpartum, you can take people today, women, and what you do is you use vitamins. There is a hormonal thing that is going on, scientifically, you can prove that. But when you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that.”You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things.”
