It’s not breaking news that
a staggering amount of money, power and fame at a very young age can cause
stars to feel invincible and as a result, make some not so good decisions. We’ve
seen it happen with promising young talents like Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes,
Amy Winehouse and most recently Mischa Barton, who has been making headlines
for some very disturbing behavior.
Here, we’ve compiled 10 good
girls gone bad—some of whom managed to conquer their demons and emerge
triumphant, some that we are still watching with compassion, and some who
passed away before their time. So let’s get to it.
10) Rihanna
Didn’t the starlet look like butter wouldn’t melt in 2005? RiRi was so good (until she went so bad), that she even named her chart-topping 2007 album after her naughty transformation (Good Girl Gone Bad). To coincide with the release of her third studio record, RiRi decided it was time for an image-overhaul. The star chopped her lengthy locks into a raven-black and pillar-box red buzz-cut and invested heavily in leather. The result? Rihanna Rated R! Fierce.
