At V Fest 2016, Danny's daughter Dani was seen having a real go at Mark's friends in the Mahiki VIP area of the festival, who in turn told her to shut up. Danny came to her rescue and was throwing punches, even though this all actually took place on his stag weekend with fiancée, Jo. Mark took to Twitter after the brawl to say he didn't personally fight, and the pair were seen looking seemingly friendly later on.

After the 2014 Met Gala, Solange (Beyoncé's sister) was caught furiously arguingwith and hitting and kicking Jay-Z in a lift. Headlines were made after Beyoncé appeared in the video footage to just stand by and look disinterested. The feud has subsequently been played down, with Jay-Z describing Solange as "like a sister."

Drake and Chris Brown

These two have a complex relationship but the main issues started over Rihanna(whom they've both been linked to). There are rumours that they threw bottles at each other in a New York club in 2010, and that at one time Chris' girlfriend RiRi actually went on secret dates with Drake behind his back.

Drake and Meek Mill

Drake and Meek have a long history of calling out each other in their raps. The main bone of contention is that Meek Mill said that Drake doesn't write his own raps in 2015, which is why he hasn't been promoting his music. Drake famously stays pretty quiet on beef, but many others pointed out the collaborative nature of rap means rappers often use other peoples' material.

Justin Bieber and Orlando Bloom5 of 21

Justin and Orlando were at the same restaurant in Ibiza, where Lindsey Lohan and Leo DiCaprio also happened to be there when things got violent. Justin Bieber apparently insulted Orlando, who can be seen jumping on a sofa after him. It was rumoured that model Miranda Kerrgot too close to Justin while she was married to Orlando. A photo of Miranda was posted on Justin's Instagram after the fist fight which fuelled the rumours further.

Lamar Odom and the paparazzi

In 2013, while married toKhloe Kardashian, Lamar was caught going crazy at a member of the paparazzi. He reportedly went into the car where the camera equipment was kept, and threw it out into the street. If that wasn't enough, he also allegedly attacked another camera man's car, and then took some equipment from the road and put it into his car. Wow.

Apparently Russell Crowe spat at Azealia Banks when they were at the same party a few years ago. She accused him of assault and racist language, but it was never confirmed and Russell said that he had had to remove Azealia for being aggressive. It was one member of the Wu-Tang Clan that claimed he saw Russell spit.

Kanye West and Jay-Z

Jay-Z signed Kanye to his record label in 2004, and they've had a weird kind of brotherly love/hate relationship ever since. In 2014, Beyoncé and Jay-Z were no-shows at the Kimye wedding in Italy, and everyone pretended it was fine. Then in 2017, Kanye left the streaming service Tidal (owned by Jay-Z), and claimed he would start his own.

Kanye West and Taylor Swift

In 2009, Taylor Swift was interrupted by Kanye after he declared on stage at the VMAs that Beyoncéshould have got Taylor's award instead. It seemed that the pair had made up until Kayne's song Famous came out, implying that Taylor's fame was down to him. This resulted in a new argument, over whether she had or hadn't approved this reference.

Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus

We certainly remember the infamous, "Miley, what's good?" from 2015. The VMAs that year seem to be the source of all Nicki Minaj's beef, as it was Miley Cyrus who was hosting on the night when Taylor beat her (see above). Nicki criticised Miley for talking to the media about her, and Miley retaliated in her recent song Cattitude, "I love you, Nicki, but I listen to Cardi".

Nicki Minaj and Demi Lovato11 of 21

Nicki Minaj and Demi Lovato

Demi Lovato attended her first Met Gala in 2016, and apparently it wasn't something she loved. In fact, she says she left at 10pm to go to an AA meeting. Rumours are that Nicki Minaj, who was also a guest of Jeremy Scott like Demi, was nasty to Demion the night. This seemed to be confirmed by Nicki posting a photo with Demi and the designer Jeremy Scott, but only tagging Jeremy. Demi later responded to this with her own pic, of her giving Nicki serious side eye.

Dwayne Johnson and Vin Diesel12 of 21

The Rock and his co-star Vin Diesel apparently didn't film any scenes together in The Fast and the Furious movie which they both starred in. It seems obvious that there's no love lost between the two of them, mainly from the fact that The Rock called Vin Diesel "candy ass" on Instagram last year.

John Legend, Chrissy Teigen and Piers Morgan13 of 21

John Legend, Chrissy Teigen and Piers Morgan

Everyone knows Piers Morgan likes a bust-up, especially via Twitter. THIS ONE, though, is definitely our favourite with quotes such as, "Hi, Piers. I know you're reading this. You unequivocal douche", and, "Hi Chrissy. No I'm not, you ludicrous swimwear accessory". It seems to have started (this time) when John hit back at Piersfor calling Muhammad Ali racist.

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris14 of 21

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris dated for more than a year before calling things off. Two weeks later, Taylor was pictured kissing actor Tom Hiddleston and both Calvin and Taylor had deleted all traces of each other off Instagram. The real beef is to do with getting credit for This Is What You Came For, which the pair worked on together as a couple. Calvin took to Twitter to say Taylor was staying with him for "something to do."

Taylor-Katy15 of 21

Taylor Swift and Katy Perry

Taylor Swift and Katy Perry are friends (at the moment) but it hasn't always been that way. In 2014, Taylor hired three of Katy's dancers for her Red tour, then half way through they left to dance for Katy's Prism tour. Talking to Rolling Stone, Taylor said another female singer had done something awful to her and they could no longer be friendly. Taylor's album Bad Blood expresses her feelings on the matter.

Vicky Pattison and Ricci Guarnaccio

Vicky Pattison dated Ricci Guarnaccio while on Geordie Shore, and they even got engaged for a bit. Having said that, Vicky has called their time together "hell" and they fought regularly. When Ricci went on Celeb Big Brother, he got close to TOWIE's Lauren Goodger, and Vicky said in reference to watching them on screen, "he's a child in a man's body."

Tom Hardy started the rumours that Shia LaBeouf knocked him out cold while they were filming together for Lawless. Shia later denied it, saying that it was a separate incident where Tom fell down the stairs which resulted in Tom getting hurt, but admitted that the pair "wrestled" all the time when working closely - even naked.

Earlier this year, Ferne McCann was allegedly investigated for throwing her drink at Love Island's Adam Collard. This all occurred on the night of the NTAs, after Ferne told other guests to steer clear of Adam and Zara McDermott. Ferne went out with Charlie Brake just after he split from Ellie Brown, one of Zara's closest friends from the reality show.

Most shocking hook ups of the decade 😮

These moments of drama at some of the biggest high-profile events or even just a social media debacle will be remembered FOREVER (fortunately for us). One celeb in particular that uses social media to fight (what seems like) all of his battles, is outspoken Good Morning Britain presenter, Piers Morgan.

Piers' online row with husband and wife, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen may have taken place in our list of the most shocking bust-ups of the decade, but there were SO many to choose from - including his famous argument against Greggs' vegan sausage roll. We wonder how Susanna Reid can cope everyday.

There definitely won't be an end to these rage-fueled confrontations and bickering between our reality and pop stars anytime soon. We're ready for the next load of iconic famous scuffles, even if it is a TOWIE friendship ruined for life.
