Two Trainwrecks

Lindsay Lohan and Mel Gibson are two of a kind. They won the hearts of many with their movies and then within the past few years...man alive there was no turning back. Let's take a moment to relive their rollercoasters.

Lindsay Lohan: Precious in an all-time classic, The Parent Trap. She won the hearts of millions, and then she picked a fight with fellow tween, Hilary Duff (who I am sure is sitting pretty right about now) over, who else, Aaron Carter (he's so fly he has two A's in his name). Then everything just went downhill. She developed a reputation on set, out late partying all the time, her parents went crazy for the spotlight (her dad's more recent BFF: Jon "I'm a complete Tool" Gossling) and before you knew it she was in and out of rehab and wearing a SCRAM bracelet. Now, this week she was sitting in court and hit with the Judges hand and sentenced to 90 days in jail. Sobbing she says she's been treated unfairly and did everything she was supposed to, but wait, she missed her weekly AA meetings. Oh and to top it all off, she had an inappropriate phrase on her nails, saying it was a joke. I don't think you're laughing now Lindsay.

Mel Gibson: Braveheart. The Patriot (one of my absolute favorites), Pocahontas and made a little film about Jesus. Seemed to be a clutch celeb in the homes of America--I was a fan, especially after he was Benjamin Martin in one of my favorite movies. Then, after a night of drinking, he gets pulled over on PCH and ran his mouth, proving that maybe he was not worthy of his squeaky clean image. Then things just seemed to spiral into a black hole. Divorcing his wife who he had a litter of children with, and then his galpal is pregnant! There was a while when he was out of the spotlight, but helping out his good friend Britney Spears when she was going through a bit of a rough patch. Now that man is back in the headlines, with a bitter custody battle and it was released today that could be guilty of domestic abuse. I don't know if you will be the comeback kid, Mel.
