20 Times Celebrities Went On Instagram Live And It Went Horribly, Horribly Wrong

I'm unsure why they continue to do these.

When celebs go live on Instagram, things get chaotic, messy, awkward, problematic, etc. So, here are some times IG Lives went horribly, horribly wrong:

1. When Bebe Rexha was asked — and answered — this question:

2. When a guy exposed himself on Bebe's other Live:

I’m honestly disgusted. And shook. I thought it was a joke. I can’t believe that guy was serious. I am so sorry that happened. I’m so angry.

3. When Kim Kardashian scolded her kids mid-Instagram Live after they said they hated her viewers.

5. When Millie Bobby Brown faked her skincare routine, LMAO:

You should follow Millie Bobby Brown’s skincare routine of applying nothing to her face. - Deberían seguir la rutina de rostro de Millie Bobby Brown en la que no se pone nada en la cara.

6. When Justin Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Hailey Bieber went on Live early in the pandemic and talked about how lucky and privileged they were:

14. When Foodgod asked if he should go live, and people were like, "No, luv":

19. When Lindsay Lohan accused this family in Moscow of trafficking and then tried to "save" a Syrian child refugee and wound up getting punched in the face — all on Live:

Lindsay Lohan really out here doing anything.... How you gon accuse a family of trafficking (YOU RAN UP ON) with no proof, reach for her kids and then do the “white woman victim noise” when she bop ya ass. & why do I feel like she’s making up a language?

@lindsaylohan / Via Instagram: @lindsaylohan

"I'm, like, in shock right now. They were trafficking. I was just, like, so scared. I literally can’t; I don't think I can ever change what I want," she said after getting hit.

20. And lastly, the most iconic Live moment of all, when Bebe called out perverts:
