So much has happened during this year that it’s unbelievable! Then again what is Hollywood without it’s drama. 
 
1. Bruce Jenner 
 
 
The Olympic gold medalist shocked the world by coming out as a transgender woman during a wide-ranging 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer in April. Keeping Up With the Kardashians: About Bruce, which aired on E! in May, documented the Kardashian family's reactions to Bruce's news as he makes the transition. She is now known as Caitlyn Jenner and is helping other people with transgender issues with her story. I sometimes wonder whether it was just for publicity. But it seems too much of a big sacrifice. 
 
2. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner 
 
 
Ben Affleck unwittingly became the face of one of the biggest celebrity scandals of the summer after reports claimed he got too close to his kids' nanny. It was a tough pill to swallow, especially since fans were still reeling from Ben and Jennifer Garner's decision to end their marriage after 10 years and three adorable children together. His camp adamantly denied that anything romantic went on between the Oscar winner and their now-former nanny, who's more than a decade younger than Jen—but bitter pills leave behind a bitter taste. I loved them as a couple and quite frankly thought that they would last. It was sad to see them part ways. 
 
3. Bobbi Kristina Brown 
 
 
Brown, the 22-year-old daughter of the late Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, died on July 26, months after being found unresponsive in the tub of her Roswell home on Jan. 31. Brown never regained consciousness and was moved to hospice care in June. An amended lawsuit filed by the late Bobbi Kristina Brown's conservator alleges that Nick Gordon (her boyfriend) gave Brown a "toxic cocktail" and then put her face down in a tub of cold water. It was a sad and a death too early for the 22 year old. 
 
4. Bill Cosby 
 
 
The 77-year-old comedian's legacy was tainted last year when allegations of sexual misconduct resurfaced and new allegations cropped up. This year, the turmoil continues for Cosby as protesters tried to shut down his concerts. Not to mention his rambling, unapologetic interview with ABC. Through it all, Cosby defiantly promises, "I am far from finished." He now accuses those women of suing him to get his money. 
 
5. "Blurred Lines" 
 
 
A jury awarded Marvin Gaye's family nearly $7.4 million after determining that Robin Thicke and Pharrell's smash hit sounded too much like Gaye’s popular 1977 song "Got to Give it Up." Thicke, Pharrell and rapper T.I. issued a joint statement following the verdict, saying it "sets a horrible precedent for music and creativity." The men maintained that "Blurred Lines" was "not taken from anyone or anywhere else." 
 
6. Zayn Malik 
 
 
Teen hearts were crushed in March 2015, following the announcement that Zayn Malik was leaving his fellow boy banders. "After five incredible years Zayn Malik has decided to leave One Direction," the band revealed on Facebook. "Niall, Harry, Liam and Louis will continue as a four-piece and look forward to the forthcoming concerts of their world tour and recording their fifth album, due to be released later this year." When quizzed on if rumours he had cheated on then fiancé Perrie Edwards had anything to do with leaving 1D, Zayn was insistent that it was just coincidental timing. I am not even sure this is a scandal but it definitely had to be mentioned! 
 
7. Josh Duggar 
 
 
Molestation allegations rocked the Duggar family in May 2015. Back when Josh Duggar was 14, he allegedly molested five underage girls, including his sisters Jill and Jessa, who recently addressed the claims. Though they admitted that they were victims of Josh, they did their best to lessen the severity of his disturbing actions. Since then, TLC has suspended "19 Kids and Counting" and Josh was recently spotted moving from his Washington, D.C., home. Reports suggest that Josh and his family are headed back to Arkansas. 
 
8. Guiliana Rancic 
 
 
During a taping of "Fashion Police," Guiliana Rancic commented that Zendaya's dreadlocks at the 2015 Oscars looked like they smelled of "patchouli oil" and "weed." Shortly after, many celebs including Giuliana's co-host Kelly Osbourne condemned the E! star's offensive comments. Giuliana apologized and Zendaya eventually accepted with a moving post on social media. One person, though, was not as forgiving: Kelly quit "Fashion Police" over the incident. Kathy Griffin eventually jumped ship and the show has been placed on an indefinite hold.
