Drama, drama, drama!
This year had its fair share of drama.
From messy celebrity splits to Beyonce and Kanye West's controversial lyrics to TV hosts making headlines, scandals were inescapable in 2016.
Here's a look at 13 moments this year when celebrities found themselves at the center of the news cycle:
1. Beyonce
Upon Queen Bey's release of "Sorry" off her Lemonade visual album, which was a narrative about a woman whose partner had been cheating on her, fans immediately started speculating who, if anyone, Jay Z's wife was referring to when she sang, "You better call Becky with the good hair."
Everyone from designer Rachel Roy to Rita Ora were accused of being the so-called "Becky," though Beyonce has never confirmed if she was referring to anyone specifically in the song.

2. Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift
Not long after these two split, Swift confirmed that she had secretly written Harris and Rihanna's hit song, "This Is What You Came For." After news broke of the singer's involvement on the track, her ex-boyfriend took to Twitter to express his disappointment over Swift revealing her identity, and to take a swipe at her then budding romance with Tom Hiddleston.
"Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to try and make ME look bad at this stage though," he wrote. "I figure if you're happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex bf down for something to do."
The DJ even brought up Swift's alleged ongoing feud with Katy Perry. "I know you're off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy ETC but I'm not that guy, sorry. I won't allow it," he continued. "Please focus on the positive aspects of YOUR life because you've earned a great one."
3. Taylor Swift and Kanye West
Swift just couldn't seem to shake off the drama this year. The GRAMMY winner found herself in a feud with West and his wife, Kim Kardashian West, after he mentioned her in his song, "Famous."
"I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex," West raps. "Why? I made that b**ch famous (God damn). I made that b**ch famous."
While Swift didn't seemed pleased with the lyric, Kardashian attempted to defend her husband by sharing a recording of a phone conversation via Snapchat that West had with Swift regarding the lyrics.
"Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric," a rep for Swift said in a statement to ET in February shortly after the track was released. Swift also quickly responded to the leaked phone call in July, posting her written response to Instagram which read in part, "Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me 'that b**ch' in his song? It doesn't exist because it never happened."
4. Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan
In April, Ripa was just as shocked as viewers to learn that Strahan would be leaving Live! after co-hosting the daytime talk show to take a full-time position at Good Morning America. After the news broke, Ripa did not show up for work the next day, and instead started her already-scheduled vacation early, not addressing Strahan's exit until her return to Live! the following week.
"The love, the show of support to this bizarre time has been really overwhelming. I really needed a couple of days to gather my thoughts after 26 years at this company, I earned the right," she told viewers at the time. "I always speak from the heart and I didn't want to come out here and just say something I might regret. So, what transpired over the course of these days has been extraordinary. It started a much bigger conversation about communication and consideration and, most importantly, respect in the workplace."
While Strahan was originally not to leave Live! until September, he ended up saying goodbye in May. Since then, Ripa has had a slew of guest co-hosts, but has yet to announce a permanent replacement.

5. Ryan Lochte
The Olympic swimmer's victories in the pool at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, were quickly overshadowed by his run-in with law enforcement.
While in Rio, Lochte first claimed that he and three teammates -- Gunnar Bentz, James Feigen and Jack Conger -- were coming home after a night of partying when their taxi was pulled over by men pretending to be law enforcement. At the time, he alleged that one of the robbers pointed a gun at his forehead and stole their money.
Lochte later altered his story, saying that the group was not pulled over but instead they were robbed at a gas station after having the taxi stop so they could use the restroom.
However, Rio police officials claimed that the swimmers vandalized the bathroom at the gas station and urinated on the building. According to their report, two gas station security guards were the ones who pointed their gun at the swimmers, demanding monetary payment for the damages.

6. Billy Bush
In October, the 45-year-old TV personality officially parted ways with the Today show a little over a week after the release of a 2005 tape in which he's heard laughing and joking as Donald Trump makes lewd comments about women, one of which was Entertainment Tonight's host, Nancy O'Dell.

7. Leslie Jones
It was a hard year for the Ghostbusters star when it came to social media. Months after being trolled on Twitter with racist and body shaming comments, Jones was hacked and her personal identification as well as multiple nude photos of someone who appeared to be the comedian was leaked.
The release of these images sparked outrage in the Hollywood community, with everyone from Katy Perry to Octavia Spencer speaking out in defense of Jones. "This @Lesdoggg attack is troubling. The rampant racism percolating in society right now is shameful and sad. She made a movie, that's it!" Spencer tweeted. "Karma always finds a way to right a wrong. Don't hate someone b/c of their ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion or gender #KarmaWins."
A few weeks after the leaked pics, Jones returned to Twitter with a message for her fans and supporters. "Thanks to my fans and friends!" she wrote. "I'm soooooo ok really. And I will always be funny been through a lot in my life and I ALWAYS GET BACK UP!"

8. Nick Young and Iggy Azalea
The rapper called off her engagement to the NBA pro not long after a recording surfaced that was purportedly Young talking about cheating on her with another woman. Azalea later took to Twitter and alleged that she caught Young in the act.
“I broke up with Nick because I found out he had brought other women into our home while I was away and caught them on the security footage,” she wrote. “This is just like a second shot to the chest. I feel like I don’t even know who the hell it is I’ve been loving all this time. People in this world really are f**ked up.”
Young tweeted not long after the cheating allegations, writing: "If you perfect, then be perfect. I live in a world where people f**k up, learn from it and move on."
Azalea appears to have moved on from Young, as she's been dating fellow rapper French Montana for several months.

9. Amber Heard and Johnny Depp
In May, Heard filed for divorce from Depp after a year of marriage, and it's been an ongoing legal battle ever since. The two were “in the process of finalizing the settlement agreements” in their divorce earlier this month, with the actress' lawyer telling ET that the estranged spouses have yet to sign the final document.
The two came to a $7 million settlement agreement in August after Heard withdrew her request for a domestic violence restraining order. "Our relationship was intensely passionate and at times volatile, but always bound by love," Depp and Heard said in a joint statement. "Neither party has made false accusations for financial gains. There was never an intent of physical or emotional harm."
However, Heard's legal team recently filed a Request for Order motion at the Los Angeles Superior Court, imploring the court to order Depp to uphold his end of their divorce settlement.

10. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
Speaking of messy breakups, in September, Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt after two years of marriage, and since then, there's been some back and forth over the custody of their six children.
Court documents recently obtained by ET reveal that the two have been unable to agree on a custody schedule. In November, Pitt's attorney, Lance Spiegel, requested for Pitt to have more time with the children than what was in their Oct. 26 temporary custody agreement, requesting the frequency of their therapy sessions to be increased to twice a week. However, Jolie's attorney, Laura Wasser, said that she defers to the therapists in order to determine the frequency of Pitt's visits, and stressed that the two should stick to their Oct. 26 agreement.
As of now, this custody battle appears to most certainly carry on into the new year.

11. Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne
In May, a source close to Sharon told ET that the rocker had been living a "double life," and that his alleged relationship with hairstylist Michelle Pugh "wasn't just a one-time hookup." Months later, Ozzy admitted that he suffers from a sex addiction and that Pugh wasn't the only woman that the Black Sabbath singer had relations with.
“Over the last six years, I have been dealing with a sex addiction," he said in a statement. "I am mortified at what my behavior has done to my family. I thank God that my incredible wife is at my side to support me."
While Pugh described her relationship with Ozzy as a whirlwind romance, he said it was purely physical. "I’m sorry if Ms. Pugh took our sexual relationship out of context," his statement continued. "I’d also like to apologize to the other women I have been having sexual relationships with. Out of bad comes good. Since the press exposed this, I have gone into intense therapy."
12. Jordan and Aaron Rodgers
While winning the heart of JoJo Fletcher on The Bachelorette, Jordan's rocky relationship with his brother, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron, was made public. "Me and Aaron don't really have that much of a relationship," Jordan acknowledged on the ABC show. "It's just kind of the way he's chosen to do life, and I chose to stay close with my family and my parents and my brother."
Multiple sources told ET that Aaron has been estranged from his entire family for years. "The entire situation is painful for the family," a source close to the Rodgers said.
Aaron's girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn, also alluded to the strained relationship between Jordan and the NFL star when ET chatted with her in May. "Aaron doesn't really ... I don't think he's really talked with his brother," Olivia told ET when asked about Jordan appearing on The Bachelorette. "So, I actually don't know. It's complicated -- I'll say that."
13. Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian
Ever since Rob started dating his sister Kylie Jenner's boyfriend Tyga's ex-girlfriend and mother of his child, there's been drama. So, it was only fitting that Rob and Chyna got their own reality show after announcing that they were engaged and expecting a baby just months after getting together.
The couple recently welcomed their daughter, Dream, into the world this past month, and a source close to the couple told ET that, as of now, they're scandal free. "Everyone who is close to Rob, including his family and best friends, really respect and love Chyna," the source said. "They see how happy she makes Rob and are thankful that she got him to turn around. Rob has been a great father and really loves Chyna."
