Katy Perry was suspended from school for "making sexual motions" towards a tree.
The 34-year-old singer whose given name is Katy Hudson has admitted that she was ordered to stay away from her Santa Barbara Christian School for three days in sixth grade for "inappropriate behaviour", including making lewd gestures towards the sapling, which she was pretending was Tom Cruise.
Perry shared the 1996 suspension report on her Instagram Story and the document read: "At the 2 p.m. recess, Katy and four other students were in an 'off-limits' area (behind the backboards) practising a skit. Katy pretended that a tree was Tom Cruise and began making sexual motions (pelvic thrusts) to the tree."
The incident was the final straw after the Firework hitmaker had previously been given a "clear warning" following "several" other incidents of inappropriate behaviour.
Mariah Carey is suing her former personal assistant for more than US$3 million.
The 'Hero' hitmaker has accused Lianna Azarian - who she hired in March 2015 but fired in November 2017 - of secretly recording her doing "embarrassing" things and then threatening to release the videos unless her famous boss gave her US$8 million.
According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Carey claims Azarian was secretly filming her "personal activities" and if the clips were made public, they could be extremely damaging to her, both personally and professionally.
The 48-year-old singer paid the employee up to US$327,000 a year until she was fired, and claims the alleged blackmail started shortly afterwards.
After previously showing the videos to friends and claiming she would sell them if she was ever fired, Azarian reportedly demanded the money and warned she'd release the videos and other damaging information once she was dismissed.
Reality star Amber Rose admitted that she attempted "selling crack in her neighbourhood" growing up, but her fears of being robbed due to her good looks meant she had to take a back seat and instead just bagged up the drugs for them.
Speaking to Van Lathan on The Red Pill Podcast, she said: "I usually don't tell people this, but I tried selling crack in my neighbourhood. They said I was gonna get robbed. I was a girl and I was too pretty, and it wasn't going to happen. I had to do it to feed my family. So what I did, I would bag it up for them. I would weigh it and bag up the crack rocks for them. And they would throw me some money."

confessed she was dubious about sharing this story for the first time and went on to explain that although she began her stripping career "very young", it was completely her own decision.
