When you become well-known, whether as a company or a celebrity, sooner or later you’re going to end up in the public eye. And with that comes opinions, both good and bad. Naturally, nobody wants the bad ones, because a damaged reputation can cost money, opportunities, and sometimes even everything you’ve worked for.
Redditors across different threads asked people to share what they think are the worst PR disasters of all time, and there was no shortage of answers. We’ve rounded up some of the most interesting ones below, so scroll down to read them, and if you think any other cases deserve a mention, drop them in the comments.

Jesy Nelson's solo debut.
was so disasterous all the goodwill she had from Little Mix and her mental health work disappeared in basically 3 days.
GrumpyPancake:
I'm still so upset about her and how her whole solo thing started and immediately derailed. Especially bc I enjoyed the debut single, despite all the criticisms of it, and was looking forward to new music in that direction. The black girl cosplay tho, the blackfishing, girl why

ARTPOP was pretty wack to live through. If she wasn't screaming at Perez Hilton to stop stalking her outside her apartment, she was melting down on Twitter about Katy and Madonna to promote a song with R Kelly.

The Chevy Nova. For some reason it just didn't sell well in Latin America. ("No va" means "doesn't go" in Spanish).
