Big-Time Celebrities Who Don't Get Hired Anymore

Martin Lawrence

Lawrence has committed some of the cardinal sins anyone (really any woman) in Hollywood would be blacklisted for, but he has yet to be completely blacklisted. He hasn't been the most well-liked guy for a while and has said some pretty nasty things (including completely disregarding a co-star sexual harassment lawsuit and saying that it was "bs.") but he hasn't stepped on everyone's toes yet. 

Problematic Comments

Lawrence has been perma-banned from Saturday Night Live, though. He interrupted the live show to preach about how important feminine hygiene is. Not only is that super inappropriate, but it was extremely creepy. He was also "casually" homophobic and would make advances towards female castmembers on set. Sadly, the rest of Hollywood hasn't caught on to his antics just yet.
