16. Britney Spears – psoriasis
She was the 90s and 00s queen of squeaky-clean pop, but Britney Spears has never been entirely blemish-free. I mean, look at her meltdown phase.

Spears, like 125 million people worldwide (or 2-3% of the global population), is said to suffer from psoriasis.
Psoriasis is a skin condition characterised by scaly red patches that can flare up when the sufferer is under pressure.

It’s understandable that Spears would suffer a breakout from time to time: as everyone knows, Spears, more than most celebs, has been under enormous pressure almost her entire adult life. Spears more than most understands this.
Areas that are commonly affected include the scalp, knees and elbows, but the feet – where Britney has previously been affected – can get it too.

Spears isn’t the only one. Kim Kardashian, LeAnn Rimes and legendary folk singer Art Garfunkel have all suffered from psoriasis from time to time. Even the rich can’t control nature.
