Gilbert Gottfried

Gilbert Gottfried, best known for his voice acting – precisely as the Aflac duck – got into some hot water after tweeting about the Tsunami that killed thousands of Japanese citizens. “Japan is very advanced,” he wrote. They don’t go to the ocean; however, the beach comes to them.” He was QUICKLY dismissed from his role as the duck, which is ironic given that most of Aflac’s company is conducted in…JAPAN.

Paula Deen

With this one, Paula Deen sure put her foot in her mouth. Apparently, the home cook mogul fosters a culture of “violent, homophobic, and racial attitudes in her restaurants.” THEN revealed that Deen had “of course” used racist slurs against black people in her life. But, instead of apologizing, she deflected any blame in shock and disbelief that what she’d said had potentially hurt anyone.
