Fame can either be a blessing or a curse, depending on who you are. Throughout the decades, we’ve seen plenty of celebrities deal with the effects of fame. Some stars are lucky enough to have a long career with a hefty bank account and a content home life. However, there are celebrities who struggle with maintaining their fame and sometimes they end up losing everything.

In the past, we’ve seen stars whose careers have hit a standstill. These celebs tend to disappear for a while, then later they make a comeback and are bigger and better than ever. We’ve seen this with 70s heartthrob John Travolta. His career skyrocketed in the 70s with the hit movies Grease and Saturday Night Fever, but by the 80s his career faltered due to a series of box office bombs. But in 1994, he made a comeback thanks to the movie Pulp Fiction.

While celebs like John Travolta are lucky enough to make a successful comeback, for others it’s not so easy. Most of the time a celebrity suffers a string of trouble that causes them to hit rock bottom. The reasons for a celeb hitting rock bottom include drug problems, financial troubles, personal issues, or career is faltering. Whatever the reason, these stars hit the lowest point in their lives and struggle to get their life back on track.

For this list, we’ve compiled celebrities who’ll make a huge comeback in 2018, then took a look at stars who could hit rock bottom.

20 Rock Bottom — Rob Kardashian: Drama With Blac Chyna Can Send Him Spiralling Out Of Control

he’s been in the news due to his weight gain and battle with depression.

It seemed like Rob had finally put his issues behind him when he became involved with Blac Chyna. The couple welcomed their daughter Dream in November 2016. But shortly after the baby’s birth, the couple split up and let’s just say things haven’t been amicable.

Rob posted explicit photos of Chyna online, which proved she was cheating on him. Plus, the two have been locked in a custody battle over their daughter. All this drama with his ex isn’t good for Rob, and the Kardashian family should be worried about his health.

Bruce Willis is one of the top stars in Hollywood. Thanks to his roles in Die Hard, he cemented his status as the next big action star. Although he’s known mostly for his action movies, Willis also tried his hand at comedy and drama, with which he was surprisingly good.

At 62, Willis is at that age where most stars start to slow down in their careers. He may not be the tough action star he once was, but Bruce is still keeping himself busy. Even though most of his recent movies haven’t been box office successes, he’ll have a chance to redeem himself with his upcoming movies.

With his new show The Ranch facing possible cancellation, things aren’t looking good for Ashton’s careerwise.

Aside from career problems, Ashton’s two-year marriage to Mila Kunis is rumored to be in trouble. Tabloids say the couple is heading for divorce and Ashton’s been out partying behind Mila’s back. All this talk of career and marital trouble could mean disastrous things for Ashton.

It was also around this time that Snooki and fiancé’ Jionni LaValle welcomed their first child, a son named Dominic. Two years later Snooki and Jionni married and had another child, a daughter named Giovanna.

By all accounts, it looks like Snooki had finally settled down. However,

Yet, cheating scandals in his personal life turned off a few of Law’s female fans and derailed his success as a Hollywood leading man. He did a few low budget movies, but none of them could reignite his stardom. But in 2018, we should expect Jude Law to bounce back when he stars in the film adaption of J.K. Rowling’s Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.

14 Rock Bottom — Kanye West: He's One Public Breakdown Away From His Career Shattering

He’s also been very outspoken about politics and how he feels he’s not getting enough respect in the music industry. While many may consider him passionate about his work, others feel his ego is getting out of hand.

His outspokenness has already cost him his friendship with Jay-Z and has started feuds with many other celebrities.

Even though he’s settled down with Kim Kardashian and their three kids, that hasn’t stopped Kanye’s erratic behavior. He’s just one public outburst away from potentially saying goodbye to his career.

The actor, who’s a devout Scientologist criticized Brooke Shields over her decision to use prescriptions to help with postpartum depression.

Yet, recent reports suggest that Scott’s almost broke and Sofia is supporting him.

Given that he has to rely on his new girlfriend to support him financially, this doesn’t pain Disick in a good light.
