Celebrities Who Had Their Lives And Looks Tragically Destroyed By Drugs

By Michael Avery in Entertainment On 14th October 2016

Drugs are bad, okay? In case you didn’t already learn that lesson, there are plenty examples around us. Unfortunately, we all know someone or we at least heard about someone whose life was ruined because of drugs. Did it pay off? We don’t think so. But there is one category that proves this theory so well, and that category is filled with all kinds of celebs who just couldn’t help themselves when it came to drugs. Some of them are clean, some of them are high as we speak, but generally, they all transformed during the years. Check out these celebs who looked totally different after they discovered drugs.

#1 Macaulay Culkin

Remember when Macaulay Culkin was the most famous kid in Hollywood? Well apparently all that fame and fortune drove him to drugsand it definitely affected his face. Maybe this is why Mila Kunis broke up with him after 8 years of dating!

#2 Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan is the poster child for what NOT to do when you grow up in Hollywood and have millions of dollars. She was in and out of rehab about 8 times and even went to jail for a bit. Her parents were horrible to her and seemed to only care about her money. Sad.

#3 Britney Spears

Everyone can say it was a "meltdown" but Brit Brit was definitely on some type of drug during her bald phase. And while it may not have been heroin or anything huge, she might have been hooked on prescription pills. Sadly, most people don't think they have a problem if they're only hooked on pills. NOT the case!

#4 Fiona Apple

Fiona Apple was a child prodigy, and had numerous hits in her twentiesbut then suddenly she disappeared. In 2012, she was arrested at the Border Patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas. We're not sure what drug she's on, but it sure did change her face.

#5 DMX

DMX has aged faster than any of his rap counterparts, and he can thank drugs for that. This man has been in prison and rehab more times than anyone can count. The father of 12 was sentenced to six months in jail this past December because he was spending money on drugs instead of his children.

#6 Aaron Carter

90s heartthrob Aaron Carter could get any girl in the world during the height of his popularity, but after he failed to sell anymore music, he turned to drugs. In 2011, he entered rehab due to an addiction to Xanax. Would you ladies still date him now?

#7 Whitney Houston

Another late star with the voice of an angel- Whitney Houston was unfortunately also known for her drug abuse. There have been many rumors about Bobby Brown giving her drugs, but today, when she is no longer with us, this is not important. Whitney was allegedly using crack cocaine, and she drank a lot of alcohol.

#8 Amy Winehouse

Amy joined the 27 club when she died of an overdosebut she did become famous for having a song about rehab. Everyone around her says she only turned to drugs after meeting her husband Blake. It's crazy to imagine how different she could've been if she'd never fallen in love.

#9 Kate Moss

Kate Moss has allegedly been off drugs for some time now. Kate was always famous for loving to party, but sometimes she would just party too much. Alcohol, heroin, and cigarettes have done their part and today Kate looks a little bit older than she really is. We are not saying she looks bad, but you can see how big is the difference between how her skin glowed before and how she looks now. We just hope she won't go back.

#10 Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson opened up recently about the tough childhood she had. Pamela said that she was molested and raped when she was just a teen, which later led to some bad choices in her life. The iconic blond admits using cocaine for years. She also admits that that kind of behavior made it hard for her to be close with her kids. Today, Pam is closer to her family than ever before and she is dealing with her demons drug-free.

#11 Amanda Bynes

Amanda Bynes is another troubled star child who unfortunately used drugs. We all fell in love with Amanda when we saw her in comedies she starred in. But then, something changed about this young girl. She was arrested a few times for DUI and she admitted she used weed and some prescribed drugs. After she was institutionalized for some time, she seemed fine. Unfortunately, she went back to rehab after her latest collapse.

#12 Tara Reid

Oh, Tara Reid, how much we loved you in the 90s. Tara Reid is one of the symbols of teen comedies from that era. We all remember her as a pretty, smart and hot young actress. Unfortunately, Tara loved to party a little too much, so she got used to alcohol and drug abuse. Today, Tara is extremely skinny and she really doesn't look good. We hope she quits all her vices.

#13 Courtney Love

Courtney Love admitted that she used drugs before. She said she used all kinds of drugs, including prescribed ones and alcohol combined. The lead singer of Hole and Kurt Cobain's wife says that she got off drugs, but her face transformed a lot during the years. That's the thing with drugs, you are probably feeling great while using them, but the consequences are just too big, so it's better to stay off them.

#14 Fergie

Fergie also had her share of drug battling. The Black Eyed Peas singer admitted that she used ecstasy at parties, which after that led her to doing something more serious. "I got into a scene. I started going out and taking ecstasy. From ecstasy it went to crystal meth" she told Oprah. Fergie is not proud of her addiction, but she is not afraid to speak about it. She said that she went through some really tough times back then and that God saved her life.
