I'm tired of hearing about these people who take their good fortune and throw it all away because of stupidity.
I'd rather feel sorry for those who bust their ass 40+ hours a week making little money with little chance of improving their situation.

Good points. It's like, you have everything but you don't have that "something" that keeps you together. It's like Dave Chappelle, as soon as they hand him MILLIONS he can't handle it. It's like you worked hard for all that, now you've got it and then what?

Thanks guys for the Dave Chappelle info. I'll have to look into this story some more as Chappelle and his show were faves of mine.
Back on topic: I enjoyed her in Slums of Beverly Hills and was expecting better things from her aside from most young actors who stick to the teen genre movies. I guess she blew it though. It's sad when someone has all doors open to them and they still shit their life away.

Unfortunately, this is not a surprise. After she reportedly threatened to molest her neighbor's dog whole high, there was no limit to how low she would sink. Hopefully she pulls through.

I watched Slums of Beverly Hills a few times on IFC and wondered why she never became bigger as an actress and I suppose this story tells why. It is difficult to say why but she is really charismatic and intoxicating in Slums even though it doesn't seem she should because of the subject matter. It is sad news to me atleast I liked seeing her on the screen.

Deftones, was this really necessary? It almost looks like you're trolling for a response. Whatever the case, it sure isn't adding anything positive to the discussion.
