number nine Zac Efron’s substance abuse
is a child of divorce I just I can’t
help but I sympathize with them well my
parents love each other hilarious
the transition from teen heartthrob to
leading men can be a rough one and
though Efron has since clearly carved
out a niche for himself as both a
comedic and a dramatic actor
there was a rough patch he managed to
keep his habits hidden for years the
partying reportedly started as early as
2007 after the release of High School
Musical 2 but it was only around 2012 or
2013 that it began showing paparazzi
shots often showed him looking worse for
wear while tabloids went so far as to
speculate about overdoses after a stint
in rehab he opened up about his use of
cocaine MDMA and alcohol I’m in the best
place I’ve ever been
never been this happy before number 8
LaLanne Vergara Paris’s dark days Hilary
Duff may have been the star but Lizzie
McGuire’s best friend found her own
unfortunate way to shine as Miranda
Vergara Paris was a spirited girl
unafraid of speaking her mind or doing
her own thing when it came to fashion
well you know me I’m a big fan of color
malanez open-mindedness however was far
less kid-friendly after the series came
to a close she dabbled in music before
moving on to crystal meth
in 2007 according to reports by AOL
complex and TMZ she was charged with
felony possession of methamphetamines
and was subsequently admitted to a drug
abuse program number seven Orlando
Browns legal troubles you stick with
this fool this one time Disney star
appeared on everything from family
matters to animated shows like Wayne
head and Fillmore but he is without a
doubt best known as Eddie Thomas one of
Ravens closest friends in the series
That’s So Raven and I got a great recipe
for fake Bobby a little bit of cream
corn so yogurt some dog food while Raven
Symone has since found success in the
talk-show world Orlando has struggled
not only in finding another consistent
role but also personally as well since
2011 he’s racked up a number of charges
including drug possession battery and
more than one DUI perhaps unsurprisingly
he has not been invited back for the bat
so Ravens spinoff number six Shia
LaBeouf’s adult life the even-steven
stars post disney career started off
well enough right
I wasn’t thinking it’s great answer
though he’d earned himself a Daytime
Emmy for that role and then landed one
sizable role after another in films like
Constantine disturbia and of course the
lead in the mega franchise transformers
his films might not have been well
reviewed
but he’d established a substantial place
for himself in Hollywood
unfortunately LaBeouf also has a knack
for getting into trouble he had run-ins
with the law as early as 2005 but since
2011 it seemingly been one fight
drunken incident unusual artistic
statement and scandal after another
number 5 Vanessa Hudgens nude leaked I
mean I get it but he’s your first crush
but it hasn’t been an easy ride for the
other half of high school musicals
leading couple either in 2007 when
Hutchins was a teen photos leaked online
showing her both nude and scantily clad
happening between high school musicals 2
& 3 the leak very well could have cost
her her role while this was averted it
was only after a lot of damage control
work on the part of herself her PR team
and Disney
2014’s iCloud leaks Hutchinson Co may
have had an easier time putting the fire
out but in 2007 blaming the victim
rather than the perpetrator was still
the way of the land number 4 Lindsay
Lohan’s derailment Lindsay Lohan snagged
the hearts of kids and parents alike
across America when she played dual
roles in the 1998 Disney film The Parent
Trap don’t freak out okay I think we
should switch places she was a rising
star and landed leading roles in Disney
films like life-size get a clue and
Freaky Friday it’s me Mom but Lohan
became a true household name with the
release of Mean Girls in 2004
unfortunately success also brought with
it public pressure and the trappings of
Fame people looked at you all the time
and everybody just knew stuff about you
by 2006 she was already attending AAA
meetings since then she has been a
tabloid regular with her party-girl
lifestyle frequent run-ins with the law
and trips to rehab slowly eroding all
credibility and star power what is what
is your drug of choice or drugs of
choice alcohol number 3 Demi Lovato’s
demons Lovato’s undeniably found success
beyond her Camp Rock days but in doing
so she’s had to overcome many obstacles
she publicly dealt with issues of mental
health including depression bipolar
disorder self-harm and eating disorders
all by the age of 18 though she came out
of rehab stronger Demi’s the first
person to acknowledge the challenges of
staying sober her struggles may have
started off as scandalous but her open
attitude towards them has made her a
role model for young people struggling
with similar issues everywhere becoming
a voice for those suffering with mental
health and substance abuse issues in the
process finally I’m in a great place to
where I can say that that recovery is
possible
number 2 Miley Cyrus’s adult persona
whew Disney stars have made more of an
impact than Hannah Montana but at a
certain point
Miley needed to step out from behind the
character and introduce the world to her
real self it seemed like she’d done that
with 2007’s Hannah Montana to meet Miley
Cyrus and she seemed to be taking the
transition to adulthood one step at a
time
until her 2013
album Bangerz when all of a sudden she
seemingly reinvented herself as a
pot-smoking
Molly popping hyper-sexualized twerking
parent’s worst nightmare this of course
meant she became a provocative lightning
rod for criticism and set a whole new
standard for former child stars
everywhere
number one Britney Spears epic meltdown
this was the pop star implosion that
rocked the world and stopped the presses
everywhere few Disney stars before or
since can claim the sort of meteoric
rise to fame that this former
Mouseketeer experienced but when it all
proved too much she snapped with a
vengeance sometime around 2006 things
began to unravel and her problems became
all anyone could talk about dangerous
driving child endangerment divorces
Rehab shaving her head freaking out on
paparazzi and the tabloids were there to
eat it all up but slowly Britney fought
her way through and bounced back to
reclaim her title as an unstoppable
juggernaut of pop
