Rob Schneider

In 2014, State Farm ran ads featuring Rob Schneider. That was before he got vocally anti-vaccine. Now, anyone would want to distance themselves from an anti-vaxxer. But it made particular sense in the case of State Farm - а health insurance company. CRACKED.COM — Source

Wendy Williams

Chevrolet used to sponsor Wendy Williams' show. Until she commented on black colleges. We have historically black colleges, she said, referring to a recent speech by actor Jesse Williams. I would be really offended if there was a school that was known as a historically white college. Williams is black, but that didn't keep her comments from attracting controversy.

Paula Deen was sued by a former employee. She was nostalgic for the gool ol' Southern plantation days. Deen and her brother were sued over racist comments, sexual harassment, and borderline assault. It came out she was planning a plantation wedding for her brother, complete with tap-dancing black waiters. Walmart, Target, and others dropped her like a hot potato. CRACKED.COM — Source

Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone was Christian Dior's spokesmodel. Until she blamed China for an earthquake. At the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, Stone called the Dalai Lama a friend and wondered if a recent quake in China was karma for Tibet. Calling 85,000 deaths divine retribution was enough to make China ban her films and get Christian Dior to drop her. CRACKED.COM — Source

Marion Jones lost sponsorship deals over her steroid use. That was just the beginning of her troubles. During the inquiry, the Olympic athlete lied to IRS investigators about never using the substances, and that's a crime. Between those charges and others related to money laundering, Jones ended up having to serve six months in prison in 2008. CRACKED.COM — Source

Lindsay Lohan

Everybody dropped Lindsay Lohan when her life imploded. Not even obscure companies wanted her. A clothing company called Odaingerous decided that even they were too good for Lohan after her DUI. Its CEO, Odain Watson, said that they had decided to move forward and will soon announce the name of the Odaingerous face and continue the world of living Odaingerously. CRACKED.COM — Source

Eugenie Bouchard was sponsored by a bunch of companies. Colgate ENAME They deserted her after she suffered a concussion. Several companies, including Colgate and Aviva, sponsored tennis player Eugenie Bouchard. In 2014, she slipped in the locker room and hit her head, suffering a concussion. Her rankings plummeted over the next year, so her sponsors turned tail. CRACKED.COM — Source

Rachel Ray

Rachael Ray was in a Dunkin' Donuts ad in 2008. It was pulled because of her terrorist scarf. The ad seemed as uncontroversial as you can get. But many conservative commentators claimed that Ray's scarf was a keffiyeh, an Arab garment. Which, they said, promoted terrorism. Dunkin' Donuts tried to dismiss the issue as nonsense, but in the end, they pulled the ad. CRACKED.COM — Source

Akon had a profitable relationship with Verizon. Until he got freaky with an underage girl. While playing in Trinidad, Akon pulled a fan onstage and simulated sex with her. The fan turned out to be 15 years old. And a minister's daughter. That was controversial enough for Verizon to drop Akon and end a $2 million deal. CRACKED.COM — Source

Cynthia Calvillo was using marijuana legally. Body Armor dropped her anyway. Body Armor dropped MMA fighter Calvillo as a spokesperson after she failed a marijuana test in 2018. Even though she has a medical marijuana card. Sure, cannabis is a banned substance in the World Anti-Doping Code, but it doesn't exactly give you an unfair boost. CRACKED.COM — Source

24

In 2017, L'Oréal partnered with model Munroe Bergdorf. That partnership ended in mere days. L'Oréal chose Bergdorf as part of a diversity initiative, so perhaps they shouldn't have been surprised when she posted on Facebook about the racial violence of white people. But the result was a boycott, so L'Oréal cut her loose ... resulting in a different boycott from her supporters. CRACKED.COM — Source

23

Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson used to represent the charity Oxfam. She ended up trading charity for soda. Oxfam took issue when Johansson became a spokesperson for SodaStream, which is headquartered in the West Bank. Because of their position on the Israel-Palestine situation, they urged her to leave SodaStream. She left Oxfam instead. CRACKED.COM — Source

Kathy Griffin fake- beheaded Trump. The joke was lost on many. The comedian held a ketchup-coated Donald Trump mask in a web video, and few understood she was referencing some of Trump's comments about blood coming out of a woman's body. She lost a couple of deals-even one with Squatty Potty, a device for changing your posture on the toilet. CRACKED.COM — Source

21

Whoopi Goldberg

Whoopi Goldberg derided the president. FOR USE AS PART OF A LOW CARB DIET Slim-Fast LOSE BIG SlimFast dropped her as a spokesperson because of it. While attending a Democratic fundraiser back in 2004, Goldberg pointed at her crotch and said, We should keep Bush where he belongs, and not in the White House. It seems a whole lot of Bush supporters were potential customers of SlimFast. CRACKED.COM — Source
