It's been a big year for celebrity culture.
There have been breakups, a few new (and rogue) celebrity couples, some wild outfits and antics, oh… and Justin Timberlake got arrested.
Yep, that happened THIS year. What a time to be alive and chronically online!
As we edge ever closer to existential crisis the end of 2024, it's time to relive some of the weirder and wilder moments from celebrities this year.
Jennifer Lopez got cancelled for saying she was a 'crazy little girl.'
Jennifer Lopez has had a big year. Between the release of her movie, This Is Me… Now, her divorce from Ben Affleck, her aspirational single gal era, and then the critical praise for her role in Unstoppable, it's been a year of highs and lows.
But a few seconds of a scene from her documentary The Greatest Story Never Told almost derailed everything.
In the clip widely shared online, Lopez is veering into a mirror as she scruffs her hair. "It reminds me when I was 16 in the Bronx running up and down the block," she earnestly says.
"That crazy little girl be wild. No limits, all dreams."
The moment was heavily parodied on TikTok and in hindsight, it was one of the funnier memes of 2024.

The Kate Middleton conspiracies.
The year kicked off with a conspiracy theory around a family photo shared by Prince William and Princess Catherine for Mother's Day, which was later found to be digitally altered.
The scandal was paired with a video of Kate Middleton at a farmer's market in Windsor that led some to question whether she was an AI clone (you can't make this stuff up) which only fed the conspiracies more.
