Celebrities Who Were Addicted

Britney Spears’s rise to stardom began in early childhood.Recording three crazily successful albums in three years, keeping to a tight schedule, earning money and fame — all of this propelled Britney into a violent period of drug taking, alcohol abuse, and family scandals. It was her father who rescued the singer from the brink by taking full control of her affairs. He severed his daughter’s old ties and won back the legal right for her to see her children. Gradually, surrounded by loved ones, Britney began to recover.Having nearly lost her children, family, and career, the performer managed to abandon her drug addiction and successfully returned to the world of music.
