Actors behaving badly

Drew Barrymore Part of the Barrymore dynasty, she was acting at five years old, a star at seven, tried drugs at 11, was in rehab by 13 and attempted suicide at 14. She was on the straight and narrow before she'd left her teens, and recently directed her first film, the likable Whip It! Robert Downey Jr After making his mark in The Pick-up Artist (1987) and Chaplin (1992), Downey Jr's drug addiction began to consume his life. He had spells in jail between 1997 and 1999. Now clean, his comeback was ratified by the Iron Man films. Mel Gibson Ironically, Gibson once helped Downey Jr's career, by covering his insurance bond for The Singing Detective. He is in the dumper after a drunken, misogynistic and antisemitic outburst in 2006, and a racist tirade last month. Charlie Sheen Addicted to drugs and sex, Sheen's wild ways took a nastier turn when accusations of domestic violence, actual or threatened, were levelled at him by his former wife Denise Richards, then by his current spouse. Winona Ryder Ryder's arrest in 2001 on shoplifting charges followed more than a decade in which she worked with Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola, and received two Oscar nominations. Her probation ended without incident in 2005. Recent film work includes Star Trek.
