Celebrities aren't exactly known for their great behavior. Okay, some of them are, but if you're a celebrity you get a lot of chances for beaching badly or even committing a crime. If you work an office job and have a criminal record, they might not hire you, but if you're an actor? Sure, come on in, as long as you can show up to set on time. It's not entirely surprising that besides a lot of stories about mouthing off and wild nights, there are actually quite a few stories of circumstances where celebrities got arrested... sometimes even multiple times for the same thing. Here are 13 celebs you probably forgot were ever arrested. We really didn't see the Tim Allen one coming.

13 Carmen Electra

Way back in 1999, Carmen Electra was freshly divorced from basketball player Dennis Rodman, and the two got into an altercation that ended up getting Carmen arrested for battery. They were at a Miami hotel at the time, and Carmen reportedly walked away with a cut lip while Dennis had some scratches on his arm and a torn shirt. She was charged under her real name Tara Patrick, but the charges were dropped and the two were ordered to stay 500 feet away from each other at all times. That was the second arrest that year for Dennis -- he also got into a fight at a Florida restaurant.

12 Matthew McConaughey

In 1999, the star's Texas neighbor called the cops about a noise complaint. When they arrived, they found the actor dancing naked with marijuana and drug paraphernalia in his home. He was 29 and resisted arrest, which got him nine hours in a Travis county jail and a $1,000 bond to be released. The drug charges were ultimately dropped, but he pled guilty to the noise offence and paid a $50 fine so he could put it all behind him.

11 Khloe Kardashian

So much happens in a week to the Kardashian family that it's no wonder you forgot about Khloe's arrest. The reality star was arrested for drunk driving in 2007 and was sentenced to three years of probation. She got caught breaking the terms of her probation and was sentenced to 30 days in jail, but it was only three hours. Why? Overcrowding. Khloe's brother-in-law Scott Disick has also been arrested for driving under the influence, as has her best friend Malika Haaq. Call an Uber, you guys.

10 Bill Gates

Bill Gates has actually been arrested twice for the same thing: driving without a license. In 1975, he was caught speeding in New Mexico without a license, and then again in 1977 he was caught again when he ran a stop sign. Geez, who knew Bill was such a rebel? Bill's mugshot is really quite happy. There's actually a funny theory about it: some people noticed that photo outline on a lot of Microsoft applications looked suspiciously a lot like the outline of his mugshot. That dude is unfazed.

9 Will Smith

In 1989, Will Smith was 20 and in Philadelphia after winning his first Grammy. An incident occurred and he was charged with aggravated assault, recklessly endangering another person, simple assault, and criminal conspiracy after a man was nearly left blind, but the charges were later dropped. Supposedly Will got into an argument with record promoter William Hendricks and then ordered his bodyguard, Charles “Charlie Mack” Alston, to hit the guy, which left him with a fracture of the eye orbit. Ouch.

8 Tim Allen

Tim Allen has had more than one run-in with the law. In 1978, when he was 25, he was arrested for possessing over 650 grams of coke... because he was drug trafficking. He was charged with a life sentence but turned in the names of his dealers and the time was reduced to three to seven years. He only went to prison for two and a half years, which is bad enough, but the whole ordeal wasn't enough to keep him out of trouble for good. In 1997, he was arrested for driving under the influence. He got a year of probation and had to complete a year of alcohol rehabilitation.

7 Kiefer Sutherland

Kiefer was arrested for drinking and driving not one, two, or three times... but four. The arrests happened in 1989, 1993, 2004, and 2007. In 2007, he made an illegal U-turn and got caught boozed up. He went to jail for 48 days. Even though he hasn't been arrested since, he still seems to have some issues with the booze. In 2014, he was spotted being carried into a London hotel after a night of partying, but he swears there is nothing to worry about.

6 Chase Crawford

Gossip Girl star Chase Crawford seems to be an unlikely candidate, but in 2010 the actor was charged with drug possession. Cops found a single joint on him outside of an Irish pub in Texas. He was booked and released, ultimately getting a year of probation and 80 hours of community service. In 2011, he agreed to a pretrial diversion program so he wouldn't have to face the charge as long as he could avoid getting arrested for a year, finish 24 hours of community service, and check in with a probation officer once a month. Actors are busy, you know.

5 Bruno Mars

In 2010, Bruno Mars was arrested for drug possession when he was in Vegas, but his drug of choice was cocaine. He pled guilty and was ordered to pay a $2,000 fine, get drug counseling, and complete 200 hours of community service. Of the arrest he has said, "I was young, man! I was in f--king Vegas. I wasn't thinking."

4 Jay Z

Jay Z is one of the more successful men in the music business, and he's a total family man these days with his wife Beyonce and daughter Blue Ivy. In 1999, things were a little different. Jay Z got involved in an altercation in a nightclub where he stabbed music executive Lance Riviera in the stomach whom he supposedly thought was responsible for bootlegging Vol 3… Life and Time Of S. Carter. Yikes. That's one way to handle things. He was charged with assault which he plead guilty to and got away with three years of probation.

3 Cheryl Cole

Shortly after the singer won a spot in the pop group Girls Aloud, she got into an altercation with a bathroom attendant at a nightclub. Her initial charge was racially aggravated assault, which was later dropped, but she still got charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm. Her punishment was 120 hours of community service.

2 Christian Slater

The actor's first arrest was in 1989 when he was pulled over for drunk driving. Next up in 1997 he was arrested for assaulting a girlfriend when he was under the influence once again. He wasn't quite done with the 1997 arrest however, since later that year he tried to board a flight with a loaded gun on him, which as we all know is one of the stupidest things you could ever do. In 2005, he grabbed a woman's butt on the street and was charged with third-degree assault.

1 Stephen Fry

The actor got into some trouble before his successful career began. When he was 17, he stole a family friend's credit card and went "ape" as he put it. Of course, he was caught and spent three months in prison. He was also expelled from two different schools, so it's safe to say that he had a bit of a wild childhood. He really pulled himself together, however, and went on to become a successful comedian, actor, and an accomplished writer.
