In recent years, we’ve seen rappers diversify the kind of pets they own, but this is no new phenomenon to superstars outside of that culture. That said, Hip-Hop Wired provides a list of celebs who owned outrageous pets.
—
Michael Jackson
MJ’s history with animals spans from his pet chimpanzee Bubbles to a full zoo in Neverland Ranch.
Justin Bieber
At one time Biebs could be caught enjoying time with his Capuchin monkey. The monkey was taken away from the superstar, because it isn’t legal and permits aren’t given to own them as pets in California.
Kirstie Alley
Alley has an affinity for lemurs, as you can see.
Tyga
Tyga’s pet tiger was once a common guest on his Instagram page. He, too, has been taken away, though.
The Kardashians
Seeing Kris Jenner struggle with pet chimpanzee Suzie in the monkey episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians is still utterly hilarious.

Hugh Hefner
Like Michael Jackson, Hef has a zoo in the Playboy Mansion.
George Clooney
Clooney’s famed pet was a pot-bellied pig named Max. He unfortunately died in 2006.
Megan Fox
The photo above is a troll. But Fox did own a pot-bellied pig named Piggie Smalls.
French Montana
DJ Mally Mall gifted French with a pet monkey because he said he’d like one. That’s a real friend.

Vanilla Ice
The 90s rapper once owned a wallaroo, which is a mixture between a kangaroo and wallaby.
