hello
1 day ago?
The Replacements.
How is this a day ago

I'm glad we can all agree that Janet Jackson didn't destroy her career, the media did.
Exactly! She didn't do it on purpose. It was an accident and her boob was shown all over media. She was the victim and they victim shamed her.
@Gavin star thanks! I'm here all week.
Oh absolutely. She got screwed by a bad accident
And also Justin Timberlake. It makes me sick that he actually went on to become super famous after that. Janet got a raw deal. She's an amazing singer/performer.
TBH, JT's career should have also been ruined because of that incident
Still can't believe how Janet was treated after what happened! They bloody acted like she killed a child on stage!
You could've said anything better than "killed a child"... And you know why I'm saying that. 😐
@@BlanchestarlightUwU ??
Hello! I watch your videos!
I remember being a kid when it happened and none of us cared. My dad thought it was funny
Yea, and it's just a boob for crying out loud.
If you ever read about Sinead O'Connor's life. The amount of abuse she and her siblings went through is just sickening. My heart goes out to her.
I know I'm really late but I was wondering if you had any suggestions where I can read or watch about her?
@@MysticDawnASMR I haven't seen anything recently. Why?
@@I_AM_NUM_3 I was just interested in learning more about her. Wondering if you had any knowledge of a documentary or something. No worries 😊
@@MysticDawnASMR @Dawn Marie There is an interview that she had with Dr. Phill. They talked about her family and the abuse she and her siblings indured. They also talked about her career and her actions.
@Val O'Connell yeah I have watched interviews and know of things, including the new things about recent years but I was just looking for just a full documentary is all. I get into a documentary mood and binge them.
Sinead o’conner’s statement was definitely ahead of its time.
The lesson to be learn from this is
Don’t Perform on SNL
Don’t Lip sync
Don’t share your political opinions
& don’t botch the national anthem
Foster Deck Don’t show up wasted.
Don’t drop kick the crowd
My problem is people should be allowed to say their political views without the fear of losing they job or lively hood like come on we all adults and we act like children
Have them sing the third verse of the Anthem, better yet, I hope everyone reading this will look up the lyrics. All the lyrics of the White Nationalist Anthem. As a human of many different colors, that third verse is our Country’s wake up call.
Pretty sure we have many talented song writers that can gather together and make a new National Anthem and it’ll be the best. Let’s push for that in 2021. New President, new National Anthem and no more COVID-19...here’s to having some hope.
Peace
And do NOT cause a surge in prejudice towards subtitled non-English-language films, whether independent, commercial or art-house, in the United States AND neighboring Canada! Sadly, Timberlake did that and it was matter of time before a South Korean came to the States to undo that with a history-making Oscar win for his Korean-language film.
I’ll still never understand whY Janet was blamed for that “wardrobe malfunction”. She wasn’t the one who ripped the piece off. She wasn’t the stylist or costume designer.
Sorry, but she shouldn’t have been black listed for that.
She obviously had to sign off on it.
I mean, the whole "malfunction" thing is an obvious lie. But that incident and the Robin Thicke backlash goes to show how prude and uptight the US really is. I really don't understand why they made such big fuss about these things.
Yeah it was very stupid
@@FabianJacquin eh, robin thicke just makes shit music... It's a total disservice to Janet jackson to even mention him in the same comment as her
She's a successful black woman
I was in the 5th grade when that Janet Jackson incident happened and I still don’t understand why people were freaking out over a boob 😂
I'm 59 and can't understand why people are freaking out over a boob? Like NO ONE IN THE WORLD has EVER seen a boob. They were RAISED on boobs. Why is it bad?
It's a NATURAL, NORMAL part of your body, and life. People suck. (well, they sucked boobs when they were little) They just FLAT OUT SUCK NOW!
Well, you know, America, show all kinds of murder and killing on tv and in the movies, guns are the leading death in children but don't you dare show a nipple!
Its ok to hunch twerk and grab your crotch though...jeez
Missed the whole point. The Superbowl is not a strip show. Just because many of us sucked milk from mommy's boob does not mean it is appropriate to expose a boob anywhere.
Yeah, especially when you see a lot worse in just prime time television
Sinead O'Connor did the right thing in speaking out against abuse by the Catholic church. She was way ahead of her time.
Plus Nothing Compares To You is one of the most iconic songs ever. ❤️
The bible speaks of the catholic church, calling it the "mother of harlots". It is full of filth and perversion.
@@someoneout-there2165 yeah, she made it iconic, even if it was a Prince song
Yes yes yes to this. Everyone's head was way to deep in the sand and she said what needed to be said heartbreaking
The pope's picture she ripped up was of Pope John Paul II soon to be canonized to be a saint. He did a lot of positive things for the catholic church. He was the one who took immediate action to bring clergy who have cohorst young men and young women into sexual relationships with them. Pope John Paul II insisted upon those clergy who perpetrated these evil acts are prosecutor to the full extent of the law. Sinead was a wack job from the start. She chose to be an arrogant person by doing that stuff on SNL. Face it, a lot of "popular" singing stars who are also activists shoot themselves in the foot sooner or later and then they dissapear.
Janet Jackson’s blacklisting is still one of the most disgusting and egregious forms of gatekeeping and misogyny in the entertainment industry. She deserves so much more than that.
Tariq Thomas it was Justin’s fault
You are so very right!
This would have never happened these days thankfully. Its so weird to think how only not so long ago people were so misogynistic
You are so right
It's racism
The fact that Justin Timberlake didn’t even defend Janet Jackson really pisses me off. The media attacked her and he didn’t say crap. I lost a lot of respect for him then, I was never a huge fan of him but that did it for me.
JT is the goat!🤪
He doesn’t like her that’s why
Nah. The next day on CBS2 LA, he blamed her and said she set him up probably because her career wasn't what it uses to be! He later issued a statement and said that ethnic people are treated more harshly.
@@carltonthepug that's a damn lie. There's old footage of Justin when he was with N*Sync talking about his crush on her, he had posters of Janet on his wall, constantly talked about how fine she was and it was rumored that they got together. Next time know what the f^ck you're talking about before spewing nonsense. He liked her a whole lot more than he would you, so there's that.🤡
Who cares. She's not a good singer.
On what planet did Eric Clapton's career tank in 1976? Lol
He was still pumping out top 10 hits in the 90s
That’s what I said. He shouldn’t of been on here. There were others that could’ve been put on here over this. Akon throwing a fan definitely killed his career. So, that is one I know I can name.
The media blows so much out of proportion, one of the singers of Milli Vanilli killed himself over their backlash, the legendary Janet Jackson had her career destroyed for something she didn’t even do, and Ashley Simpson never got the opportunity to recover from that 1 SNL mistake in life. Honestly the only people that should be holding this level of scrutiny to is our politicians. 💯
Come on, tho. Janet was still going to expose her red, lacy, bra to millions of ppl, including my then, 4-year-old son. That doesn't make me feel good. That makes me feel exactly the same way that JLo's strip pole routine from a few years ago made me feel. So, yes, she did do it. Or at least contributed to what happened.
I think if she would come out with a kick ass album all would be forgiven.
Ashlee didn't make a mistake. She intentionally lip synched on a show called Saturday Night LIVE. Can't sing - you're not a singer.
@@machupikachu1085 Meh, lot of people lip synch of TV shows.
@@zephyer-gp1ju on Saturday Night LIVE?
Some of these entries should be on a different list called “careers ruined by the media”
Exactly. The media is the one making a big deal.
💯% 👍🏾
Bingo
This!
word
I still don't understand why Janet got cancelled after a malfunction. Not a huge fan of hers, but this is not fair, especially if Justin went on unscathed.
If you still think it was a "malfunction" where the just the front of her bustier was that easy to rip away, you're living in a fantasy world.
White man or black woman? Of course the woman gets all the blame.
That's misogyny for ya!
@Manuel C Lies. Janet Jackson was literally blacklisted by certain video and radio stations after that Superbowl. Les Moonves the head of CBS saw to that and it changed the entire trajectory of her career. Only now is some of that "canceling" wearing off.
@@MissAlmostFine not to mention how she was mocked by pretty mcuh everyone, it was really unfair that only HER got the blame
One thing I seem to get from these is, either my standards suck, or... the public can be ignorant, uptight, or unforgiving.
I think the latter is correct
Cancel culture existed even back then. It just didn't have the internet to help it spread like wildfire
What Sinead O’Connor was standing up for was right and it was proved to be true.
Rest easy Sinead 🤍
You say that as though it only came to light after she tore the picture up. There has been a long history of abuse in the Catholic church. She was not protesting something that was not widely known and proven in court cases.
The fact that Justin Timberlake's career continued to thrive while Janet Jackson's slowed down to almost nothing, because of an *accident* that he was part of, shows how shitty the double standards are for men and women.
Her career had already been slowing before that.
Dont turn it into a gender thing
Someone had to be blamed
@@Knifity Then why was it her? She wasn't the one who ripped it off or the designer.
No. He did what he was supposed to. It was her and her wardrobe techs fault for the failure.
I still don't understand why Janet was solely blamed for that incident.
I'll tell you why ..... because she was born with boobs nah let's not blame the costume designer or anything logical
She herself planned it, that is why...
Racism and misogyny towards black women. There’s your answer
Because she planned it.
@@sakesithole6295 Why would you blame the costume designers for her desperate attempt a “pulling a Madonna”? The woman was literally wearing a decorative nipple ring, she planned it from start to finish.
I've seen several concerts back in the 90's and Janet Jackson by far was the best. She didn't stop at all during her whole set. She sang and danced like there was no tomorrow.
Seems to run in their family. RIP King of Pop
She got that Taurus stamina. They don't stop. It's unreal.
So?
Janet Jacksons career is fine, thank you. She is, was and always will undeniably be an ICON!
Yes, she’s a strong hardworking woman
Preach 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Really? Haven't heard anything from her in two decades?
She barely had one, only reason she is famous is because of michael and good times
yeah....with a nice pair of jugs......
I love how not playing a song from Spongebob would piss off a nation
Spongebob died for our sins. How dare you.
SpongeBob is our religion
i hate travis scott and maroon 5 because they didn’t play sweet victory at the super bowl 🤬
It’s more about the sentiment, the creator of the show died and people wanted to pay omage to him
Mr. Potatoe head: Hold my beer
I always found the Janet Jackson scandal foolish. It's a nipple..... everyone has one. It's natural and normal.
Yeah nudity is easy too oversexualized in American Society, especially the female body,
Like a breast is a normal body part
All of us drank from our mothers boobs when we were babies, and most girls have boobs
@@YeahitsMeSylvia ok (I might regret this comment) what do you mean by most
@@ahlethescout8404 some people may have had mastectomies or just naturally have less in that region
Most even has two.
So same with genital right?
The one guy was obviously not trying to stage dive… He was trying to actually clear over the people and land on the other stage…
15:25 For context, the performance was petitioned to be a dedication to Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of SpongeBob, who died from ALS. I’m still incredibly upset that the petition only amounted to a fucking 7 second lead-in for Travis “My Concerts Have Killed People” Scott and Adam “I Desperately Want To Be A Sex Symbol” Levine.
Janet Jackson getting blamed and punished for the wardrobe malfunction is like a person who got shot is the one being charged with attempted murder. Like where tf is the logic?
Edit: I get what some of y’all are saying, but y’all are missing the point of my comment. It’s the fact that Janet’s career faced the repercussions of the incident (accident or on purpose), but not Justin’s, who was the one who pulled the piece off in the first place, or at least the person who designed the outfit. Imo, the resulted backlash definitely was due to either a race thing, a gender thing, or a combination of the both as well as Janet being a Jackson. Buku people were constantly praying for the Jacksons’ downfall for whatever reasons they had.
40 years old titts. On a Sunday. Tasteless. Families, entire country in front of the TV. - called wardrobe malfunctions by you
@C veneri it wasn’t her fault, it was her plan.
It was to expose her lacy bra but more came off then intended apparently but it was technically planned just it went wrong
It didn’t ruin Justin Timberlake tho
She had a weird nipple star on... it was not a wardrobe malfunction. It wasn't a piercing. It was some strange decoration for the boob that was entirely supposed to be exposed. I'm sorry, I have no problem with the incident itself... but to try and lie your way out of it after the fact.
The people who got mad at the boob were prudes, and probably a few racists who weren't mad at the boob itself, but the fact that it was a black woman's boob.
I was 100% on their side until that "wardrobe malfunction" farce. She should have just owned up to it. Her early stuff was just poppy r&b stuff. Her later stuff was sexed up. Which exploded her career for a while. She posed topless with someone holding her naked boobs for the album "Janet".
I repeat that was - not - a "wardrobe malfunction".
Travis Scott ended up on this list even before Astroworld. Wow
That’s because he sucks.
The reason why he sucks
I could not understand why Milli Vanilli were destroyed. I waited for the original artists to appear and continue making music 🎶, but to this day, noone knows who they are. Fascinating, because the music was fantastic.
The Music and The Lyrics are more than likely somewhere in The Library of Congress. Which means, the true Vocalists do not own the copywrites. Furthermore, there must be a time sensitive Contract, that keeps the true performers from revealing their Identity.
Well, the original artists didn't want to perform on stage (they prob hate stage performing) but had good voices thus why Milli Vanilli was created (The same producer that made Boney M, another of the lip sync artists) and well Milli Vanilli were coming back with their own voices (the ones that performed on stage, the two men) but one of them died. Now the other still has a music career today, though not as big as before, its very small.
Actually, the musicians behind the sound did come forward later on, as The Real Milli Vanilli. Without the handsome young fake front men, they weren't as successful.
@@kakadoodoo3000 really? I never heard about it, maybe because it was because people felt tricked or not enough advertising 🤔 or air play. I wonder if they tried again, under a different name. They had a great sound. That's a Bummer 😪
@@shelleydawnballard please do a search for "Real Milli Vanilli." Yes, it's too bad. Their music was good.
Poor Sly Stone…he and his Family were on top! He looked very high in several TV performances, and wound up somewhat incoherent and living in an RV parked in front of his sister’s house. It wasn’t supposed to turn out that way!
He was Funk before George Clinton and War. LA funk is a genre unto itself
As life goes his life actually went the way it is supposed to go when you indulge in drugs. All the old musicians still going are the exceptions. Sly just had more fame and people learned and like his work along the way. That is more than we see of and most druggies see.
Funny how only Janet Jackson got blacklisted. Maybe they should of fired the costume designers instead.
For what?
Mikael Desnos what? she literally didn't do anything, it was the costume designers and justin timberlake who fucked up
@@vincevvn This was planned. He was supposed to rip off that red shit near her titty. But the whole thing came off. He was just as surprised. It literally changed how TV operated. The FCC came down hard.
@@dirtyrat7181 the whole idea was stupid in the first place, like why?
Probably, or they should equally scold Janet and Justin, but to vent all the media's wrath upon Janet alone is way too unfair.
"don't hate the black, Don't hate the white. when you get bit, hate the bite" That's a decent quote that everyone should learn from.
It matters just as much where that bite does (and continues to ) come from. He forgot that part.
Matthew Launchbury most racist people I have met are not white so what does that tell you
@@TheBlowMachine69 I have saw that a lot to be fair, during the blm movement etc
I'm so inspired - I think I might go and create some art.
@@TheBlowMachine69 That with no offense, you Clearly are white or raised in a predominantly white neighborhood
How about Jim Morrison, Miami, 1969, when he came onstage late and drunk, called the audience a bunch of "f'ing idiots" then asked them if he wanted to see his, er, member. Whether he actually did expose himself has always been a subject of debate, but he was arrested and found guilty, and despite albums like Morrison Hotel and L.A. Woman, things were never quite the same.
The reason the sex pistols broke up was because Malcom McLaren was always making them do things wether it was shows or their own movie
And they fully broke up because Sid Vicious sadly died
Miguel didn’t even try to dive. It looked like he wanted to jump across the stage and horribly missed
He messed up. At least no one got hurt
@@Zero_0ne did you listen to the video? Two people did get hurt and one sued. She got a concussion from someone else's stupid stunt.
It looked like this man pulled a WWE finisher on that girl
The way he landed he honestly could have killed someone. Their heads were the right height that they could have been broken against the stage by the forward force of his jump.
@@HighFiveGhost50 yes that's what I was thinking. Perfect angle and force to legitimately break someone's neck.
two things:
1.
Maroon 5 also did a terrible job at a performance here in Chile, he was the absolute worst.
2. We all owe Janet, Sinead and the Chicks an apology
Claudio Vásquez Carrosa yup
So glad the Chicks are back. I hope Sinead will do the same. Janet Jackson is still making music, I think.
We who?? Only those who had a problem with Janet should apologize
@@mjvybz Well yea, I believe he's talking about America.
Agreed especially with the second one, all where victims of the extreme prejudices of those times, it wasn’t Janets fault that it was just an accident yet the racist and sexist society denounced her horribly, Sinead was simply warning us about the crimes
Catholic Church commits and the heinous criminals that control it yet they all though she was simply being anti-religious, and The (formerly Dixie) Chicks were right about The War on Terror being a mistake but the proud nationalistic patriotic nut jobs just treated them like trash which happens still to this day.
Also, I think that Ashley Simpson was negatively effected when she sang at a super bowl and apparently the sound was not going into her earphones and she could not hear herself sing and she was off-note the entire performance. I remember her getting booed by the audience. And, Jessica’s reaction to the whole incident was filmed (and was more infamous than her sister singing).
What was her reaciont like? Never saw that
All Superbowl halftime shows are lip-synced to a pre-recorded track. Too much can go wrong with the equipment. It is stipulated in the contract. Even the absolutely great Star Spangled Banner of Whitney Houston was lip-synced.
@@SM-bm6jo No, that’s not true.
The saddest of all of them was the Everly Brothers. It wasn't just the act that ended, but that gig also precipitated a total end of the relationship - for 10 years not a word passed between them, until their wonderful reunion concert in 1983. But their relationship was always very strained, and they fought like cats and dogs.
I like how lip-syncing back then was such a huge deal. But nowdays megastars like drake and post malone do it all the time during their live shows. If you can call it a live show... it's just playback with some walking and barking something into the mic every 10 seconds.
I think it's the fact that, especially with Milli Vanilli, other people were doing the singing on the records
Megastars have been doing it for a long time, especially pop & r&b acts where the singer dances & wouldn't have enough breath to sing. It's just... they mostly don't get caught doing it.
@@kerrieleidig there is a lot of artists that use lipsync and dont lie about it, like Britney Spears. I guess lying about it is the worst part.
To be a megastar these days you need to be able to lip sync because all the vocals are auto tuned on records.. they know their voices are shit. 😄😄😄
To call them stars is an insult let alone mega... fast food society
i see what you mean but post malone has never lip synced , he’s one of the most talented artists of recent years ngl
holy shit MIguel... literally jump kicked one of them and curb stomped the other one at the same time. what a devastating special move
That one girl looked like she got leg dropped by Hulk Hogan
good thing one of them sued, he could have easily killed them
Jim: bah god!!!
What you call that the flying sack of death
That was his signature move until then. After that......
He stayed grounded. And so did his career. TRAGIC !
The mili vanili thing is crazy. The European release of their hit had a notice saying that other musicians sing the vocals. The u.s. never got that notice lol
Greta Van Fleet is amazing. No idea why they are in this video. I saw them in concert in Charlotte and it was one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen.
I saw them in Charlotte as well. They definitely held their own.
i thought the same, i never even knew they had a bad performance on SNL and still love their music, but frankly SNL is no where near as relevant as it has been in the past.
@@SoopermooseGaming agreed I haven’t watched snl in years.
Absolutely agree I saw them in Chicago last year it was the best concert I’ve been to
They.suck.zep.rip.offs..
Janet Jackson didn’t destroy her career, the reaction did. I mean how could anyone blame her for that? If you blame anyone, it’s Timberlake or whoever made the costume.
Whoever gave the "OK" on that choreography for pseudo-puritanical American television is the primary culprit.
She's the one that planned it.
@@mrsx7944 mmhhhmm yeah sure🙄
@@rhysparkz4150 she admitted it.
@@rhysparkz4150 p
Justin Timberlake ripped off Michael Jackson's style, and Janet's clothes...
cope
amen
Justin Did Not Rip Of Michael Jackson's Style he was inspired by it, Him And Michael was Friends and Performed on Stage Together.
@@ajsgaming8003 he ripped off michael jacksons style, nobody talk about it but everyone knows!
@@juanjesustorressalcedo780 Listen iam a Big Mj Fan And If Your Gonna Say That Justin ripped off Mj then you might as well say so did Usher And Ne-You You Might As well say that Mj ripped of Fred Astaire and James Brown.
See it's not about ripping of its about taking inspiration from the ppl that did it b4 you and incorporating it into your own style thats what mj did and thats what JT Did, do you really thing Mj would Have worked with or shared a stage with someone who was ripping him off??? no he would not, so no JT Was Not ripping Of Mj.
Boney M didn't sing their songs either and yet ... nothing!! Poor Milli Vanilli!!
Why wasn't Timberlake held responsible to the same level as Jackson?
Basically, SNL is cursed
Most live tv performances sound bad unless their being lip synced, but yet SNL is cursed lol
Not necessarily, it’s a huge platform which can cause nerves and fear to take over. Also, it’s not really the best place for some acts.
You are right about that!
Yeah, the rock is getting fire for being on a skit about a molesting robot.
I usually watch SNL just for the sketches. Musical performances are my least favorite part tbh
Remember when Lenny Kravitz had a wardrobe malfunction on stage and we all just got on with our lives? People understood that these things happen, it's just body parts, and it wasn't even on purpose. It is ridiculous that Janet Jackson was not granted the same courtesy. You would think she had killed someone the way some people reacted.
You don't seem to comprehend the difference between accidental and deliberate acts.
It is no big deal, certainly. But if you honestly think that it was not deliberate, at this point, you are a little too naive.
this was a weird one to be on here because like literally no one cared. media made a big deal of it because it was weird but otherwise...... janet jackson wasn’t really even popular at the time. the whole performance was basically like having her on as a classic to the contemporary justin timberlake.
@@sergeiyzerman7240 @Sergei Yzerman Just to play devil's advocate, isn't it possible that Huw Guyver merely disagrees with your assertion that it was deliberate?
I have no idea why your name popped up twice. 🙄
It’s a real shame The Replacements couldn’t overcome their alcohol problems. “Swinging Party” is an all time great song, truly a beautiful piece of art. That whole album (1985’s Tim) goes hard. If you haven’t heard their music check it out :)
Drake Kinzel - absolutely! And their SNL appearance was great. What hurt them was the obscenity that Westerberg got past the censors. It ruined their chance of performing on TV again for years, but it certainly didn’t lose them any fans! (And I’m with you: “Tim” is beyond good.)
Agreed! As a Minnesotan, I’ve always been both proud of what they achieved, and sad that they couldn’t overcome their inner demons.
1989 Live performance for the MTV tour which was in Bristol Connecticut at Lake Compounce .. I will never forget it.. being there and being confused as to what was going on as we watched them run off stage
Why punish Janet but not Justin? Ahhhh, the great double standard.
Because it was her performance, and she was the one who planned the entire thing. Stop pretending you didn’t see that decorative nipple ring.
It was her boob...
As a German I didn't understand what the problem is. It is just a nipple.
Why punish either, it was the costume designer's fault
It is just the human body to be honest. We all have nipples and it is not like their performance was really meant for children in the first place.
Janet Jackson did not deserve all that trouble. Not fair at all.
It makes you think it was a setup. Maybe she pissed off someone in the music industry. The press has a habit of bringing people down if slipped some cash.
Agreed🥰🥰🥰
i suppose if you are going to have a piece of your clothes ripped off in front of millions of people, and you agree to it, if it goes wrong, you're not entirely blameless? but it was rather a fuss. Probably made by people who visit art galleries and look at 1000 year old naked statues
@@Drobium77 omg ppl, she said it ripped wrong! It was supposed to tear away to her just being in a friggin bra. Female performers have been known to dance around in those with no shirt on. 🙄.
What people don't realize is that the 'wardrobe malfunction' was to take attention off her brother's scandal at the time. To give something else to talk about
Dishonorable Mentions:
* Steve Harwell - Former lead singer of Smash Mouth got intoxicated on stage and threatened fans.
* Fear - The punk band was banned from SNL after wrecking the stage.
I’m so glad Qveen Herby is doing so well rn. I’ve heard several of her songs in tiktok videos and i dont even go on tiktok.
Disclaimer: Not one of those “ew i’m not on tiktok” ppl. I like tiktok but i cut back on social media once school started and it’s kind of a habit now.
the most curious thing is how the incident only affected Janet Jackson, as if Justin Timberlake was not in the performance and had not even touched her
It's kind of like blaming rape on the girl, I agree so wrong.
@@bigmamajama2829 it's because she did it for intentionally you fool. And she never lost popularity with blk ppl.

I thought the whole thing was cringe.
@@bigmamajama2829 The sad part in some countries men that do rape woman can get away unscathed but she lives with shame. She also be forced to marry him.
Maroon 5's career was not impacted at all. They have still been cranking out as many hits as ever. Although Adam Levine was already a dick before that.
Where
It's obvious because he suffers from ADHD, so may be it's not his fault.
Maroon 5's career has been sustained mostly by moms. They lost the vast majority of their actual fans somewhere around 2009, when they dropped their original sound, and went full radio pop fodder. Their singles do fine, but their album sales have been garbage for nearly a decade.
I really think that it was impacted. After that awful halftime show they went to Viña del Mar in Chile the most important music festival in South America and their performance was even worst with some shady backstage stories as well. Since then there’s no sign of recovery on sight
He's a big jerk. He came to Chile last year and as he and his managers had a misunderstanding about the show (He thought it would be a bigger show than it actually was, I think), performed a poor show and he acted like a pissed off kid, insulting people and the whole city. I mean, they've come for only a few times and people paid for the show.
I don’t remember Miguel jumping on anybody and Janet still has a career…it’s Janet
Dude you can clearly see how his left foot just lauded on that curlie hair chick and right foot hit some to.
Eric Claptons career ended over this?? LMAO this list is so wild. He is an icon, always has been.
When Maroon 5 came to Chile’s biggest music festival and Adam said it was a shitty city...the entire nation hated him ☠️
Santiago does have a reputation for being shitty. Chile's true beauty is outside santiago 😊
We Still DO. the asshole arrived late to the Festival, ruining the timeline for other singers ( who had their sets shortened because of him) he came out basically in pajamas and mumbled his songs, and then was caught on tape saying Viña and the Festival were shitty. Since Viña Festival is basically Latin Eurovision, he was an absolute asshole and Chile went as ONE to shred his Instagram and and we are still posting sopaipillas recipes there. Chile never forgets. even after his lousy "sorry guys, I'm a child" video.
He was right tho. From a Chilean
Omg what you people are saying in the comments is outrageous. I don't think it matters if the place is shitty or not, it is tremendously disrespectful to say that to the people who (probably) live there and paid to see them.
I saw them twice in Brazil before they started making lousy music and nothing of the sort happened.
Sorry he was such a dick in your country.
@@marcelam8965 He didn’t face the public for about 5 minutes, he was wearing dirty clothes and he sang like crap, no energy at all.
He only apologized when international news started reporting his behavior.
Some people paid like $300 USD, the place was full.
The city isn’t shitty, he was just throwing a tantrum like a diva.
Guy almost killed 2 girls with that jump.
fr like who stage dives FEET first
Easily could have broken their necks...I've been in mosh pits and it ain't fun

So Janet Jackson's career ends and the guy who ripped her top off becomes a huge star. Crazy. I never really thought about it before but that really did end her career.
Thankfully, by 2013 we had progressed enough that Robin Thicke ended own his career by letting Miley Cyrus shake her butt in his face on live TV, but Miley Cyrus continued to be a star. I'm a little surprised that it wasn't also the end of Miley's career, but I guess the media is more forgiving to young people.
@@rebecca8525 Miley’s career didn’t end, because robin was married and let Miley do that when he could have stopped her
Is it because younger fans don't give a crap and just want to do what their idol does? It seems that any celeb who's popular can get any charge and misdemeanor and get away with it because of fan loyalty. Young fans won't know the gravity of situations, but they will emulate their idol anyway because it had something to do with them
I agree! but also in the end the guy, formerly known as Britney Spears' EX-"jeans-ensemble-accomplice", was the real t.i.t.
@@rebecca8525 she is a scank. Terrible music
Miguel, that wasn't a stagedive
that was a fucking attempted murder lmao
I know, wtf? Who stage dives FEET FIRST?!?
World Wrestling Entertainment making a huge comeback lol
He leg dropped that fan like Hulk Hogan using backstage politics in WCW
@@jennifer9047 I think he was just trying to jump to another part of the stage and completely misjudged the distance.
That was the Liu Kang super-kick.
The Milli Vanilli bit is missing so much info, like how these guys were basically pawns and got pushed into all of it in the first place, and how the mocking and cruelty of the public and the press after that incident basically led both men on a downward spiral that ended with one of them committing suicide less than a decade later after multiple attempts. :(
Also F JT. He didn't defend Janet with the Superbowl thing and he also used his relationship w Britney Spears as fodder for his music career.
💯
That is the bullshit spin. The guys out there pretending to be singing also pretended to have been the singers singing the songs on their recordings. No one forced this on them. They chose to do it or they could have refused and not ever tasted the fame this choice presented for them.
@@SM-bm6jo Watch the documentary about it. Once they were under contract they were kind of screwed or they'd have been sued for breach of contract and ended up owing a lot of money they did not have. It was going to ruin them either way. It's pretty sad. The music industry is very predatory.
Greta Van Fleet? Are you serious? They are freaking amazing! I’ve seen them live twice and they are INCREDIBLE
I'll be attending their Montral show next week!
Can't wait
How is it that they're on this list? I've been into alt rock and metal since the 70s. Greta Van Fleet reminds me in some ways of Zeppelin but they still have their own style and sound.
Watch Mojo is just another version of some hollywood shitshow.
They.suck....
@@patk3601 omg because they literally just copied all the 70s and 80s rock legends. It’s hilarious everyone says they sound exactly like Zeppelin… gee I freaking wonder why?? Also the band name…literally took Van Halen and Fleetwood Mac and mashed it together… they’re a poser band. It’s baffling they even have “fans”
Gotta love Slash playing Welcome to the Jungle absolutely drunk and stoned lmao.
I'm a huge GNR fan and this shit doesn't bother me. If slash and the lads didn't get drunk and stoned all the time, we wouldn't have gotten their music.
@@BirrDetonator1989 Exactly.

That poor girl that collapsed after getting struck by Miguel 😢😢😢
I know right.. wtf Miguel? And also that awkward moment when he was interviewed and he said about being with that woman next to him.. ergh
With Sinead... Anthony Keidis (RHCP) was dating her at the time. It actually caused a lot of strain on them trying to be together. She had alotta heat on her.
The song "I could have lied" on the BSSM LP is actually about her.
It's a great song. He had the lyrics and told Frusciante about it and his feelings and he came up with it almost instantaneous. That's how close he and John were at the time.
Saying Creed had a reputation for being a horrendous live act is pretty harsh to 3/4 of the band.
And the world has still never apologized to Sinead for her horrible mistreatment.
That is a stupid expectation. "The world" never apologizes. The world is not a person who can apologize.
We all gotta admit, fucked up slash didn’t sound as bad as we thought
He sounds just like his usual self...
Because IT IS his usual self, lol
Hahaha true, I was expecting something not-so-good
See the whole video. He does ruin the opening
Whereas a straight Axl DID sound as bad as we thought.
it sounds bad if you know how to play the guitar and the riff...
See, there's a difference between people that destroyed their own careers (ex: Michelle Shocked, Eric Clapton, etc.) and people that got their career destroyed by stupid people (ex: Dixie Chicks, Janet Jackson)
Don't forget sinead O'Connor she did the right thing too
@@abdielgarcia6737 ex = example
Sinead. She deserves an apology.
What can we expect. It’s watchmojo.
@@starrsmith3810 What about Janet? And so do we!
Dixie Chicks are kick ass.
I'm Australian and the stand she took, made me love them even more.
Re Ashley Simpson: the pisser for me was her throwing the band to the wolves! They kept going, tho, like pros. She walked off the stage during a performance! To performers, that’s shameful. My acting career has been small potatoes compared to (most!) others, but even at regional level i never worked with anyone who walked off for any reason, even gastric! Never seen a school play where someone did that, tho I know it happens.
(Experience at that level is invaluable. A cast is stronger when the more experienced players help guide the newcomers.)
I’m curious about pre-show rehearsals. How many, and what days, how those went, was there much communication between performers & crew.
There is no substitute for rehearsal.
The Milli Vanilli story is really sad actually. They got conned into a contract stating that session singers would do the vocals, and when they protested, it was too late, they'd already signed. Sure, they should've read the fine print, but they were young and their manager was a notorious scumbag. One of the guys ended up killing himself.
Not to mention that English wasn't their first language, I think they German or something.
@@tervinnyengwa1250 one was French and the other one was German-American
witch one Milli, or Vanilli? ROFLMAO.
They signed on the line. Stupidity is not an excuse.
I think the suicide thing should have come up in this video. They faced so much hate that one of them killed himself. That was before internet was a thing, before social media. Cancel culture is not new, and it was always a danger
Now we're learning that Sinead O Connor was right the whole time. She never deserved the hate.
A lot of people knew then; not like they know now but a lot knew. It was the presentation and the lack of context that was problematic.
@@ObsidianLife Was I the only one that found the lack of context amusing and as a result became her biggest fan?
She was severely emotionally abused by her caretakers.
wait right about what?
@Sergio Balaguera I don't understand this. Just because someone is a celebrity doesn't mean that they shouldn't have an opinion. I see their opinion just like anyone else's opinion. They are human. They have feelings. Just because they have a bigger platform, doesn't mean that it is more or less important than yours or mine. When performers refused to play South Africa during Apartheid, it helped bring the atrocities of what was going on there to light.
Greta Van Fleet has matured since that Saturday Night Live mishap and they are phenomenal in concert😊
It's absolutely and utterly mindboggling that, to this day, there are *still* people who actually believe that Jackson had _"a wardrobe malfunction"._
JANET SHOULD NOT BE ON THIS LIST, JUSTIN TIMBERFAKE SHOULD.
i think he did that on purpose
so as miley cyrus and unfournately even madonna !

Eric Clapton's career was destroyed when he went on a racist rant in 1976? Guess that guy I grew up seeing EVERYWHERE in the 80's and 90's was someone else! I wish my career would crumble like his!
Joh that weird music advert built into the intro really pissed me off more than it should
We all feel bad for Janet, but i think we also need to feel bad for Sineád, and The Chicks. They simply spoke up against injustices.
For Sinead and Chicks, Misusing their platform was the problem not necessarily the content.
Truth!
Fans don’t want to be lectured abt politics by musicians onstage for a performance. They learned a bitter lesson.
@Mike Edwards Then those fans shouldn't have been morons. The chicks didn't state an opinion. Bush was factually a criminal. Period. Anyone who supported him is an accomplice. Period. That's not an opinion, that's reality. The problem was that more people didn't do what the Chicks did.
@Mike Edwards I agree. They could have apologized but their pride got in the way. I’m from Texas and what the lead singer did was an absolute affront. If you’re an entertainer, shut up and perform. Nobody comes to hear your political opinion.
Sinead ripping that pic up is by far the most ballsy thing I think I’ve ever seen a musician do.
@Clayton Berkey
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but sit down and let the grownups talk.
@Clayton Berkey
You are correct. It was idiotic, and immensely unpopular. John Paul II was a popular figure, and blaming him for others' misdeeds made no sense.
She was brave AF
The Catholic Church is responsible for far more religious persecution and genocide than Adolf Hitler could have dreamed of.

Super, enjoyed it.
That Ashlee Simpson one was even worse because of how she threw her band under the bus.
Yeah, I'm surprised nobody talks about it. Of course, she's a lead singer and all attention, good and bad, comes to her, but man, she threw her band under the bus
I'm glad her career ended.
While no one really sing live anymore. Feel sad for her
While Ashley was bad I would say Milli Vanilli was worse
@@sytherwusky imagine the heartbreak and disappointment of Obama in Milli's case.They said he went on a hunger strike🤣🤣. On a serious and sad note, one of the band's member suffered bad mentally with depression and all because of the public's reaction which contributed to his early passing.
Everyone's talking about Janet Jackson not deserving to be on this list but what the hell is Greta Van Fleet doing on here? Sure their SNL performance was underwhelming but theyre doing just fine
Time has really told for these gentlemen! They’re an amazing band and badass live
Underwhelming? Really? Wow. You clearly haven’t heard their music. They rock!
@@no1nestandsalone387 what? i said their snl performance was underwhelming and they dont deserve to be on this list
@@no1nestandsalone387 no she likes them lol she was just saying that maybe this performance was but it’s clear that she likes their music 😎
Exactly. I was like “wtf”
Ridiculous!! John Lydon DID NOT ruin his career!! After the Sex Pistols he came back with P.I.L. He had a huge following. I saw P.I.L live and they were fantastic!
You know whats really cringeworthy? when people say '''that's pretty cringe'' I'm sure there's better displays of your vocal talent/job than this.
Greta Van Fleet's performance was the reason I looked them up and ultimately became a huge fan. SNL is notorious for their bad sound and shredding a band's music. Do yourselves a favor, see them live. They are truly amazing and extremely talented. Trust me, SNL did not "ruin" their careers. Their last tour was consistently sold out.
Thank you 👏👏 they’re an amazing band!
I was very puzzled when i saw them come by in this list haha they are great and for one mediocre performance i dont understand why they deserve a spot on this list
Yeah I think they just wanted to fill the list with artists people will recognise rather than actually having 20 artists who actually ruined their careers.
I swear watchmojo has something against this band, every recent worst list involving bands has Greta listed. They were performing in front on one of the BIGGEST TV shows of all time, Of course Josh would be nervous if he would mess up.
It’s so ridiculous that Greta Van Fleet is on this list. I’ve seen them live and they’re absolutely amazing. Of course they’re going to nervous performing on SNL! What the hell I think you just needed a slot to be filled and chose them.
Greta Van Fleet kills it in concert so i agree
I agree! I solely love them for how amazing they sound live!
Couldn't agree more.
WHO is again...?
I agree
I never got to hear that explanation back then. I knew it wasn't her fault and have always been upset they acted like it was. I know they focused on her because guys were drooling over her anyway and she was the bigger name. But even knowing it was partially planned doesn't make it her fault. It's still his fault. He's the one who should have paid the price. I just wish the red bra had been stronger or better yet, that part not included in the show at all. She's still an icon, but her career definitely dipped because of his actions.
Edit: yes I know some women were too, it wasn't as common to think that way back then. But yeah, I was among those women.
This was amazing
Nice reminder that "cancel culture" isn't a new thing, it's really just a re-branding of the old Court of Popular Opinion (which has been around forever lol).
Cancel culture isn’t ceasing to buy a celebrity’s music. Cancel Culture is getting your neighbor fired & doxxed because he said “fag” or “nigga” on twitter in 2011 when he was 16
@@jakeraught4939 People subscribe to their own definitions of what does and does not count as 'cancel culture', and I don't disagree with any definition. My point is that is that no matter what you call it or what example you use - it isn't a new thing. People have been doing horrible, unfair, petty things to each other forever.
@Joe Doe Bit of a broad statement, personally I think the context matters in each case, but to each their own - you're definitely not the only one who feels that way.
@Joe Doe lol, chill buddy.
@Joe Doe serious question, is everything ok? I'm not being sarcastic or passive aggressive or anything, it's just your responses are pretty intense (and I'm not even in support of 'cancel culture', belittling you or trying to change your opinion).
It'd be nice if we could actually see/hear the artists destroy their careers on stage as the title implies, instead just a straight voice over track telling us how it happened.
I was glad I didn't have to listen to Fergie...
I know I'm late but they probably can't share the audio for copyright reasons. I've noticed even with shoddy crowd recordings, UA-cam can be iffy about that.
Who knew Clapton would be proven right 30 years later
I think Guns N’ Roses put on the best concert ever in 2016. They played for three hours and 15 minutes. It was absolutely epic, and I’m so grateful that I got to see them.
Janet Jackson’s career is far from ruined. She is an Icon!
@loveutill theendoftimes she was NEVER "blacklisted" in the blk community. You must be white 🙄

She’s better off not being apart of the circus that is the music industry. It is what killed her brother, after all.
Fergie’s voice can be used as an industrial insecticide.
Fun fact, scientists did a study, Skrillex "music" is actually a very good insect repellent.
Whenever I'm having a shitty day...and life sucks moment...i view the " Fergie Fiasco" and just laugh, and laugh...the best part is the end...lol. look at her face, her eyes..you can absolutely tell she's saying to herself " omg!, did i just kill it, or what girl?"
