He was caught on tape saying his then-girlfriend "f**king deserved it."
Bobby Brown was arrested for allegedly hitting his late wife Whitney Houston in 2003. In a 2009 interview with Oprah Winfrey, Houston revealed, "He slapped me, but he was on probation for traffic violations… it went to domestic violence court."

Although Madonna denied the claims in 2015, Sean Penn was accused of striking his then-wife with a baseball bat in 1989. When the duo reportedly rekindled the romance, RadarOnline reported he cheated on the singer with model Naomi Campbell! "He has been sleeping with Naomi behind her back," a source told Radar. "They were together in Paris in early December and were hooking up then. They both have done their best to be discreet as Sean knows Madonna would be pissed if she found out."
