A revolving door of celebrities has found themselves on the wrong side of the law, landing in front of the police camera for their obligatory mugshot. Some look like they just rolled out of a dumpster, others appear mid-ugly cry, and a few are rocking a smug grin like they’re posing for a magazine cover.
Yet some of these police snaps reach the pantheon of truly memorable celebrity mugshots. Here are but a few we feel are worth revisiting.
Bill Gates: Nerd on the Run
It’s true—Bill Gates, the mastermind behind Microsoft, got himself arrested in 1977 for a traffic violation in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This one makes the list purely for the bizarre vibes. Young Bill looks totally unfazed, posing for his mugshot like he just aced Pac-Man or watched Star Wars for the 30th time.
However, Gates seems to have a sense of humor about his brush with the law. In a 2014 episode of The Tonight Show, host Jimmy Fallon pulled out the infamous mugshot.
Bill was all grins.
Mike Tyson: Maybe He’s Not Taking This Very Seriously
On December 29, 2006, former heavyweight champion and The Hangover star Mike Tyson was arrested in Scottsdale, Arizona, on charges of suspected DUI and felony drug possession.
