40. Amanda Bynes

When Amanda Bynes burst onto the scene as host of her own kid's talk show, The Amanda Show, everyone saw great things happening for her. She had the bubbliest personality on television and was a total natural. Bynes was also known for her comedic talents, which is probably why she grew up and did so well starring in comedy films.

Who could forget hilarious classics, such as She's the Man, Sydney White, and What a Girl Wants? It seemed like everything was going well for the young actress, until she turned to drugs. She was caught with them in her possession a few times, but nobody thought it was a huge disaster at first. She has since had very public meltdowns on social media and has now stepped back to seek help for a potential mental illness or drug addiction.
