8 Child Stars That Ruined Their Careers

Being a child star means your life is going to go down one of two vastly different paths: either you become the hero, or you live long enough to watch yourself become the villain. Sadly, this is a hard truth that you can’t get around.

Let’s take a look at some child stars that completely destroyed their own careers.

Lindsay Lohan
I mean – what more can we say about this one? I’m pretty sure the tabloids covered everything already. LiLo has been trying to get back into showbiz in recent years and we can only hope she can stay on top this time, but she’ll always have her past haunting her.

Demi Lovato
Again, I’m pretty sure the tabloids covered most of Demi’s breakdown already. Her recent overdose is still fresh in our minds, but she’s talented enough to make it back on top if she really wants to.

Britney Spears
Ah yes, Britney Spears. We’ll always know what we were doing exactly when Britney decided to shave off her head and yell at the paparazzi. I’m not sure Britney knew what she was doing then, but she seems to be doing well in recent years. Let’s hope she keeps it that way.
