Gloria Trevi

The once super successful, beloved singer and actress, was always viewed as a raunchier version of Madonna, but “La Atrevida” took a turn for the truly disgusting in 1999, when she was put on Mexico’s most wanted list after a former backup singer who had written a book detailing sexual abuse and torture of her and a clan of other girls at the hands of Trevi and manager/husband Sergio Andrade filed charges. Trevi, Andrade and a group of girls disappeared and it took Interpol a year to find them. At least five of the girls were pregnant by Andrade, and Trevi had lost a baby shortly after birth. Held in a Brazilian jail while fighting extradition, she became pregnant by Andrade after he bribed guards for alone time with Trevi. She eventually returned to Mexico to face kinapping, rape and corruption of minors charges—and was acquitted for lack of evidence.
