Justin Timberlake‘s mugshot sent social media into a frenzy on Tuesday, after it was revealed that the singer had been arrested for driving while intoxicated.
The hitmaker was pictured in handcuffs after being charged with the offence, with police saying he ran a stop sign and veered out of his lane in the posh seaside summer retreat.
Obtained by DailyMail.com, Justin’s mugshot showed the singer staring stony-faced into the camera moments after he was pulled over, and it has already sparked a flurry of viral memes and social media reaction.
Of course Justin is far from the first big-named star to face the indignity of a mugshot, with names such as Lindsay Lohan, Robert Downey Jr and Justin Bieber enduring the photoshoot no Hollywood star wants to sign up.
But where does Justin’s mugshot rank among some of the most iconic in Hollywood history? MailOnline takes a look-back at some of the most legendary mug shots…

Despite now being one of the biggest earning stars in Hollywood history, thanks to his role in Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr endured a tough few years in the industry when he battled drugs and alcohol addiction.
From 1996 to 2001, the Oscar winner was arrested several times, with the first being for possession of heroin, cocaine and a .357 Magnum handgun – this one unloaded – while roaring down Hollywood’s Sunset Boulevard.
In 1997, after missing repeated drugs tests, he was given a 180-day jail sentence for violating probation but was caught fighting with another inmate.
Fellow prisoners reportedly targeted the celebrity in their midst and Downey Jr twice woke up in a pool of his own blood.
‘I would never tell you the worst things that have happened to me,’ he once said of his time behind bars.
The actor spent another year incarcerated, this time undergoing drug treatment, in 1999, with his now-iconic smiling mugshot taken while he was bring transferred to the California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison.
But after Robert met his wife Susan in 2003, he vowed to give up drugs for good, and after landing his starring role in Iron Man, he became one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood history.
Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan has endured multiple unwanted jail photoshoots, including a DUI arrest in 2007 (top left), stealing a necklace (bottom centre) and assaulting a woman in a nightclub
After emerging as a child star, Lindsay has endured multiple brushes with the law, resulting in a collection of mugshots that no star would wish to have.
In May 2007, she was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI), and despite undergoing a 45-day treatment programme, she was arrested again just weeks later for felony possession of cocaine, and driving with a suspended license.
In May 2010, while she was travelling to promote a film at the Cannes Film Festival, Lindsay missed a court date, and a bench warrant was issued for her arrest, before she posted bail.
In 2011, she was then arrested yet again for the theft of a necklace from a jewellery shop, and the following year she was placed in a jail cell for the fifth time, under suspicion of fleeing the scene of an accident.
Lindsay’s sixth – and hopefully final – mugshot came in November 2012, when Lindsay was arrested for allegedly assaulting a woman in a New York nightclub, however she was not prosecuted.
Khloe Kardashian

Khloe Kardashian was arrested for driving under the influence in 2007, with her post-arrest image showing her heavily made-up complexion despite her brush with the law
Many fans of the legendary Kardashian family may struggle to remember times before their reality show dominated the US landscape, and that may prove to be a good thing, given Khloe’s famous arrest – and subsequent mugshot in 2007.
Khloe was arrested for driving under the influence in 2007, with her post-arrest image showing her heavily made-up complexion despite her brush with the law.
While she was originally sentenced to community service, and required to complete an alcohol treatment programme, the star was then sentenced to 30 days in jail for failing to meet the judge’s requirements. She served just three hours.
Khloe’s arrest did feature prominently on the third season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, with the nonplussed reality star saying: ‘I really wasn’t that drunk. It wasn’t a high percentage. My judge is not very happy with me.
‘He thinks that my job is a luxury and that there’s no excuse on why I got kicked out [of the treatment programme].’
Justin Bieber

As one of the planet’s most well-known child stars, it was no surprise that Justin’s career took a dramatic turn as he reached adulthood, with the heartthrob arrested in 2014 under suspicion of driving under the influence.
The police report held that Justin had been drag racing, and that when the officer stopped him, the pop star’s breath smelled of alcohol and his eyes were bloodshot.
After being arrested the star’s had his mugshot taken, and his confident smile was beamed worldwide when news of his legal troubles broke.
Later that day, Justin’s $2,500 bail was posted and the Baby singer got released from prison.
The plea bargain he got that August required 12 hours in anger management lessons and $50,000 forked over to charity, among other provisos, but he evaded a prison sentence after pleading guilty to resisting arrest and careless driving.
