As the year draws to a close, Gigwise takes a look at a host of rock stars who have grabbed negative headlines in 2008. Drug arrests, lambasting gay people, mocking mega star rappers, driving under the influence and alleged racist behaviour are just some of the ways these musicians have tarnished their name somewhat. While some offences are relatively minor, or even humorous, others are pretty unforgivable. Oh and before you ask where Gary Glitter is - he's an irredeemable scumbag who should really be on a list of his own!

Trick Trick: The former cohort of Eminem sensationally said in an interview that he doesn't want gay people to buy his album. He blasted to Allhiphop.com: “I don’t want your faggot money any goddamn way. I don’t like it (homosexuality). Carry that shit somewhere else.” His album, 'The Villain', attacks gay people through it's lyrics with the rapper even calling chat show hosts Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O'Donnell “dyke bitches”. Idiot.
