25. Bobby Flay
In 2009, Bobby Flay was involved in a legal battle with one of his own employees. Although Iron Chef paints him as an all-round do-gooder, a lot of the staff across his restaurants have often claimed that he is not the most lenient of employers when it comes to loosening the purse strings of the business.
Nobody likes a stingy boss. Disgruntled employees have openly spoken about being cheated out of wages and tips, with one having to go the legal route to get compensated for overtime they were owed. While his publicists denied all claims, at the end of the day Bobby had to pay a settlement of $800k to get the case off his back.
