​From Kanye West's Twitter meltdown to Madonna's bizarre bathtub video: Hollywood controversies which stunned everyone in 2020

This year turned out to be quite unpredictable due to the coronavirus pandemic, which led to new norms, leading to changes in our lifestyle. Like us all, even celebrities have been struggling but while some took it positively, a few of them grabbed everyone's attention with their controversial statements or actions.

From Johnny Depp losing the libel case which affected his upcoming projects to rapper Kanye West Twitter meltdown and Cardi B controversial photoshoot; here are some Hollywood controversies which left everyone stunned in 2020.

​Johnny Depp losing the libel case

Actor Johnny Depp had to step out of the upcoming sequel of Fantastic Beasts movie franchise a few days after he lost the libel case against a tabloid, which had claimed he assaulted his ex-wife Amber Heard.

In a letter to his fans, the 'Edward Scissorhands' actor stated that he has been asked to resign from Fantastic Beasts 3 and agreed to the request. The third instalment of the popular magical franchise is currently in production and is expected to release in summer 2022.

​Madonna's bizarre bathtub video

Earlier this year, pop sensation Madonna took to social media to share a video from her bathtub, in which she calls the coronavirus 'the great equalizer'. But the 61-year-old diva's video message received negative comments.

Meanwhile, the video showed the 'Hung Up' singer sitting in a bathtub with milky water and rose petals and saying 'that’s the thing about Covid-19' and how the virus doesn't care about one being rich or famous. Within no time the video had gone viral and due to the negative comments on the post, Madonna even had to take it down.

​Chris Evans' NSFW photo leak

'Avengers' star Chris Evans started trending on social media when he accidentally shared his graphic images on his social media. While the 39-year-old actor removed the controversial post instantly, it had already triggered a plethora of reactions from social media users. Not only that but several memes also found their way and went viral on the internet. But Evans broke his silence over accidental NSFW photo leak and turned this goof-up into a public service announcement by asking them to vote.

​Cardi B's photoshoot

Last month, rapper Cardi B became the talk of the town when she posed as the Hindu Goddess Durga for a photoshoot for a sneakers advertisement. While the 28-year-old rapper received severe criticism online, she had to take to social media to apologise for hurting people's sentiments.

The 'WAP' singer took to Instagram to share a video in which she made it clear that it wasn't her intent to offend anyone and she would not like it either if people offended her religion.

Kanye West Twitter meltdown

Fans witnessed rapper Kanye West meltdown as he took to Twitter to talk about a lot of controversial matters in which he even talked about his wife Kim Kardashian trying to lock him up with a doctor as well.

While the 43-year-old rapper issued an apology latter, Kim ultimately broke her silence on the drama and shared a public statement acknowledging her husband's bipolar disorder. While the matter might have settled down now, but West's Twitter meltdown surely left everyone surprised.

​Justin-Hailey and Kendall's controversial comments

Kendall Jenner was joined her friends Justin and Hailey Beiber for an Instagram live earlier this year which instantly turned into a nightmare. While the young stars talked about their past but what left everyone fuming was when they began to discuss about how blessed they were during this crisis.
