From American Idol to The Real World [did you know it’s still going on?] to Bad Girls Club, when the camera turns on, anything goes! Maybe that’s what’s great about Reality TV: It’s a no-holds-bar type of ordeal.

DETAILS: Trey Songz Battle Reality TV Star

American Idol‘s friendly giant crooner, Jermaine Jones, is no exception. He turned out to be a not-so-friendly criminal with warrants out for his arrest. He was arrested twice and both occasions dealt with violence. In true Hollywood fashion, it’s said that his dismissal will be publicly displayed during the show set to air tonight. Now, let’s add him to the list of other infamous characters kicked off TV shows they once partook in! Peep the rundown:

PHOTOS: Can You Guess the Reality TV Booty? 

Frankie Cocozz

The arrogant wannabe, star-struck rock star was kicked off X-Factor and ordered to leave the house one morning after he had ‘broken a golden rule,’ which was related to drug use. Frankie had been repeatedly boasting about cocaine-fueled sex sessions… Yikes!

David Edwards

During Real World-Los Angeles, David had begun to “playfully” yank bedcovers off of Tami while she was in her underwear as part of a harmless game, where the girls were laughing throughout the tug of war. Deciding that what Dave did “was not funny,” Tami retaliated by throwing his boots in the toilet. Beth in turn called David a rapist and he was asked to leave the house. Oh well…

Jill Zarin

According to a source, Real Housewives of New York City’s Ramona Singer came to Bravo with a few pals she thought would make good additions… Bravo decided to go with the new girls and not Jill, so Ramona basically ran her off the show because “Jill caused a lot of problems,” and “Her castmates were upset with her, since she’d tweet all these negative things…” This one is too catty. Not cute ladies, not cute!

David “Puck” Rainey

Puck, also from Real World-Los Angeles, is most notable for having mocked Pedro Zamora, who was homosexual and had AIDS. Anyone who remembers this guy recalls his unbearable obnoxiousness and unwavering ability to just piss people off. Rotten egg across all borders!

Angelea Preston

In America’s Next Top Model, Angelea was destined to be a top finalist. But the runway diva was disqualified from the competition, due to the fact that she revealed information on the final three girls. This was a violation of the competition’s agreement/rules, especially since she was included in the three. Shame, shame. 

Ripsi

During Season One of Bad Girls Club, Ripsi was the first girl to get thrown out. After a night of binge drinking with Zara, Ripsi attacked Kerry and then claimed to have no memory of the events. The roommates held a house meeting and decided to send her home. Ouch.

Greg Halstead

In The Real World, a group of kids have to fund their ridiculously swanky cribs by taking on challenging jobs. During the season of the emotionally draining participation in improvisation classes, Greg was clearly too hot for them, for his housemates and for TV. Because he didn’t attend his improv classes, he was kicked out of the house. Real slimeball-like there, Greg. 

Ty

During a group trip to the beach, Bad Girls Club star Ty spit in Aimee’s face. Aimee attempted to spit back but Ty punched her first. She was then sent home for throwing the first punch. Whoa Nelly…

Joey Kovar

Although Joey was technically not thrown out, he was ultimately forced to depart from the season prematurely due to his alcohol addiction. He checked into rehab, but came back four weeks later only to find out he would have to leave permanently, because his housemates were insensitively popping bottles galore. Joey made the decision to embrace his newfound sobriety and walked out the door.
