Celebrity

While some purposely did controversial things that made people angry, some didn't even know in the first place that what they were doing would offend a lot of people.

AceShowbiz - There are a lot of ways for people to celebrate the Fourth of July, be it shooting off your own fireworks or holding a party with close friends and family. Celebrities are no different than common people in spending their Fourth of July, but given their popularity, it can't be helped that there will be people judging them.

Some of these stars have fallen victim to critics who weren't really happy with the way they celebrated the United States' Independence Day. While some purposely did controversial things that made people angry, some didn't even know in the first place that what they were doing would offend a lot of people.

This year, Donald Trump was the victim of online haters after he said in his Fourth of July speech, "The continental army suffered a bitter winter at Valley Forge, found glory across the water of Delaware and seized victory from Cornwallis in Yorktown. Our army manned the ramparts. It took over the airports. It did everything it had to do. At Fort McHenry, under the rockets' red glare, it had nothing but victory."

People noticed that Trump got his time periods of American history mixed up, because the surrender of British General Charles Cornwallis at Yorktown took place on November 13, 1781. But the Wright Brothers, inventors of the airplane, did not make the world's first self-powered flight until 1903. Thus, his "took over the airports" line made no sense.

"Did the writers at 'Saturday Night Live' write his speech," one poked fun at POTUS, while some others simply dubbed him "moron" and "stupid." There was also one who said, "What an embarrassment to our country!"

Besides Trump, we have listed several celebrities who faced backlash over their Fourth of July celebration. Let's check it out!
