15 Celebs You Never Knew Went To Rehab

From the outside, it looks fun to be in actor in Hollywood!

You get paid a lot, people love you and you get to hang out with other famous people all the time. Isn’t that the dream? But it’s actually a lot tougher than it looks to survive in show business. So many actors end up abusing drugs and alcohol and have to go to rehab! It happens to a lot more celebs than you would think. Here are some celebs you might not remember went to rehab to save their life and their career!

1. Ben Affleck checked into rehab in 2001 after battling substance abuse and alcoholism for years. You know who booked him a room at the facility and drove him there? Charlie Sheen. 

Charlie Sheen? The irony is too much. 

2. Matthew McConaughey said “Alright, alright, alright” to rehab after the police came to his house and found drugs everywhere. Matthew was also caught playing bongos while naked. 

Somehow, that just seems like a very McConaughey thing to do. His agent told him to go to rehab or else he’d start losing movie roles!

3. Jon Hamm spent 30 days in rehab for alcohol addiction. Jon said that he was overwhelmed with the success of Mad Men and that’s what led to the heavy drinking. 

But it looks like he’s all happy and healthy now! 

4. Drew Barrymore went to rehab twice when she was a teen. The first time was when she was 13 and she went for substance abuse. Drew said it was too much to have fame at such a young age. 

Drew said she had her first drink at 9, began smoking marijuana at 10 and took up cocaine at 12. That’s rough! But she pulled it together and has gone on to do so many amazing movies.
