Marie Antoinette
Of course the OG of scandalous kweens went out with a bang (guillotines are très chic, non?), but her death was hardly her most dramatic moment. Her "Let them eat cake!" lifestyle consisted of high-end indulges while her people were starving in the streets and she also had an affair with Swedish soldier Hans Axel von Fersen. We mean, her French hubby refused to sleep with her for SEVEN years, so who can really blame her for wanting to fuck around?
Additionally, girl was a total fashion horse, dressing only in the latest couture and ringing up an impressive amount of debt with her wardrobe alone. The custom perfume she had made for herself was apparently so strong that it gave her and her family away when they attempted to escape the revolutionaries who were trying to kill them. And you thought Paris Hilton's scents were strong.
