In the current pop culture era, you would think you've seen the wildest and strangest scandals take place. Yes, there have been an odd couple that took us all by surprise, but when I came across the scandals from the '70s, I simply had no words. From kidnappings to whirlwind romances, '70s pop culture witnessed a lot of scandalous events that will forever be etched in history.
