The 10 Most Expensive Celebrity Addictions by Nobody: 12:21pm On Jul 17, 2014 |
Celebrities develop varyingly harmless and harmful addictions just like anyone else. The difference between them and us, though, is that they often have the means and funds to prolong and indulge their addictions more than most. Some of these, like shopping, cars, and shoes, are a fun and envy- making way to spend all that extra cash. But when celebrities delve into darker, deeper addictions – such as gambling, drugs, or alcohol – the limitless funds at their disposal can prove hugely, cataclysmically destructive. Take recently deceased Hollywood actor Philip Seymour Hoffman, whose $10 thousand monthly heroin and Oxycontin habit quickly unraveled and eventually ended his life. Then look at someone like Justin Bieber, who reportedly blows through $1 million a month, on toys, dates, dinners and, of course, legal fees. The bottom line is, it’s all fun and games until the addiction becomes unmanageable, all-consuming, deadly, or it bankrupts the addict. Whatever the addiction – from the obviously harmful, like drugs to the more insidious, like plastic surgery – it can prove to be the undoing of a person, even a seemingly invulnerable celeb. The following are examples of seriously extreme and insanely expensive celebrity addictions. |

8. Joan Rivers – Plastic Surgery ($3 million) Joan Rivers seems to have stopped the process of aging, but not because of any fountain of youth. No, the potty-mouthed comedian, actress and Fashion Police co-host has supposedly had as many as 700 cosmetic procedures, an addiction to which she describes as a love affair. As she told the Daily Telegraph in 2013, “Every weekend I just go in and do something new. I get a 10th one free. It a little like coffee, you just keep going.” Joan’s daughter Melissa is supposedly not too happy about how often her mother goes under the knife, but as Joan told the Huffington Post, “I don’t give a damn what people think. If you don’t like my opinion, too bad. That’s the only good thing about age.”

Neyoor: 8. Joan Rivers – Plastic Surgery ($3 million) And she's still ugly after all the countless surgeries she's done. Watching her fashion show is the creepiest experience ever, her face has been frozen solid by all the botox injections. It doesn't even change expression anymore. |
