11. Fighting Words
Both Jonathan and Drew seem more like the loving instead of fighting type, but that didn’t stop Jonathan Scott from getting involved in a bar brawl. Just days before their 38th birthday, Jonathan was out on the town with friends, seemingly without Drew, and reportedly got in the middle of an altercation. Although his sources deny he had anything to actually do with the fight, it was Jonathan that ended up being subdued by the bouncer, after which Jonathan called the cops and claimed he had been assaulted.

Jonathan and Drew have an older brother J.D. Scott who they also work closely with.
9. Dividian Production
Before hitting their stride by starring in their own shows, Jonathan, Drew and J.D. Scott founded an indie film company called Dividian Production Group in 2004. They all worked at performing, writing, directing and producing for years under this company before launching their own on-screen hits.
