Is anyone making a list of actors/actresses who for some reason or another just wound up going off the deep end?

Damn, she's really gone down hill, too.

http://www.treknews.net/2015/09/15/jennifer-lien-arrested-indecent-exposure-voyager/

Tim Kenneally wrote:‘Star Trek: Voyager’ Actress Arrested for Allegedly Flashing Children



Jennifer Lien has been arrested for allegedly going where no “Star Trek: Voyager” cast member has gone before. Nor should they.

Lien, who played Kes on the sci-fi series, was arrested at her Harriman, Tennessee, home on Sept. 3, on two counts of exposing herself to a child under the age of 13, ABC affiliate WATE said.

Deputies from the Roane County Sheriff’s Office initially arrived at her home to deliver a detainer summons, however, they were informed by dispatch that there was an active warrant out on Lien for the exposure charges.

According to WATE, when the deputies arrived, Lien’s front door was open. The actress was naked except for a blanket on her couch, and told the deputies she was expecting them. Nonetheless, when she was informed of the warrant, the actress told them to leave her alone and that she wasn’t going anywhere. After repeatedly asking her to put clothes on, the deputies eventually cuffed her and dressed her in clothes from the jail. WATE reports that Lien refused to walk to the patrol car and had to be carried.

Lien, 41, also allegedly threatened to have the deputies killed.

TMZ reports that the alleged flashing stemmed from an argument with her neighbor outside her house. According to the site, Lien was angry that a child was crying because of a cut foot, and for some reason Lien allegedly showed her breasts and butt to the kids.

Lien has a history of legal troubles. In April, including a June 2012 arrest for domestic assault.

This is a great story, and I am glad to see it posted here.

If we're going to make a list of actors/actresses who have gone off the deep end, I'd like to offer up Randy Quaid.

Margot Kidder had a steady descent in to mental illness, I think it was bi-polar. It's believed her role in Superman III was cut down to about 5 minutes because she was unmanageable (though there are lots of other stories about what happened there). She ended up at one point disappearing and wandering the streets, and was found hiding in the bushes of some guy's backyard.

She recovered though, so there was happy ending.

Which is pretty much as far off the deep end as it's possible to go...

Apparently Lien is no stranger to altercations with the law. CNN says she's been arrested for domestic assault, aggravated assault, evading arrest, and resisting arrest.

The mugshot is nothing like I remember Kes...but she had to be in her early 20s when she did Voyager.

I hope she's released soon.

Seeing people self destruct, no matter who it happens to, personally makes me sad.
I lived in a crack house(not because of drugs, but because it was the only place I could afford at that time in my life) for a few months and could line out tales of the different people that were there and how they ended up in that place. Some were there because it was a generational thing and they were just carrying on a family tradition, some because of mental illness, others, of course because it was a great place to find drugs and live with like minded people.
There were also times in my life where I worked with people who were highly intelligent and functional. Then one day their wires somehow got crossed from whatever trigger that caused it, physical or emotional, and it was like they were a totally different person. This is the one that really scares me because we don't know who among us would be suceptable to that happening.

TV Funhouse had a cartoon skit with Margo Kidder, Robert Downey Jr., and someone else as detectives who were looking for a lost dog, did their insane/drug fueled antics, and wound up killing the dog and eating it. I miss TV Funhouse.

No idea. The thing is, she's accused of exposing herself to children. That, along with her other actions, could wind up putting her away for a good long while.

Actually, I avoided article specifics because I wanted to see a wider discussion on the subject of celebrities self-destructing.

Amazingly, Amanda Bynes appears to be on the road to recovery now that she has been involuntarily committed to a treatment center in Pasadena.

I had an interesting discussion with someone about celebrities, especially child stars who go down the toilet. It's not a surprising thing to see happen with someone who is put on a pedastal all their young life with almost every whim catered to as long as the money keeps rolling in.
There has to be a great deal of anxiety building up, wondering when the gravy train will end.
Think about people like Michael Jackson, who from the time they were about knee tall, were mobbed by adults, and this was celebrated in entertainment media of the time. Imagine years of being grabbed kissed, and possibly fondled by adults you don't know in any kind of setting, mob or otherwise. Couple that with his documented family situation and ask yourself if it's any wonder he turned out like he did.

Or the breakdown of not having the rebellious time of being a teenager. Look at Miley Cyrus. spent her teenage years in the chaste confines of the mouse. then when she is gone, she starts licking sledgehammers like they are phallic. No she is desperatly trying to prove she is an adult, while simultanously proving she isnt.

To add to your point the nature of the circles they travel in the entertainment business at that age is going to have a huge effect. I think I would lay money on the confines of the mouse not being that chaste.

I've read/heard that Kiefer Sutherland is a super funny/happy drunk... He was busted at one point and served a few months jail time for a DUI, and even admitted to dropping the soap in the shower.

He also had a run-in while filming 24 in NYC for allegedly head butting some fashion designer, though I think that was declared more of a public service rather than any kind of crime.

I think with her history and judging from her behaviour in this incident that she could possibly plead mental health issues to avoid jail time in exchange for treatment?

Not walking away free but it would definitely be better than jail as she does seem to be exhibiting behaviours that suggest mental health problems which should probably be evaluated and treated.

God, look at her now! She used to be pretty cute, and now...woof! Very sad also to hear about her potential mental health issues.
Of course, there are many celebrities who have gone downhill (other than lookswise), and many of them have already been mentioned. Some that I didn't see include: Macaulay Culkin, the Olsen twins, Wesley Snipes, and many others I'm not thinking of.
It's even sadder when they don't get help in time and end up killing themselves (RIP Robin Williams).

I would disagree, her every move was monitered by media. She couldnt do anything wrong. There was a controversy over her not wearing a seatbelt on a golf cart. She needed to appear and act squicky clean.

List of celebs who went off the deep end?
Macaulay Culkin
Miley Cyrus
Lindsey Lohan
Olsen Twins
RDjr.

Hmmm, I was expecting to know a lot more. Not sure if Robin Williams and Heath Ledger count or not, since they didn't go out because the fame caught up with them. If they do count tho...add them to my list.

I'd not include Miley Cyrus; there's simply no evidence that her antics are anything other than a planned career move, and one that has been successful. In interviews she comes across as quite clear headed and plainly spoken.

On the other hand look at Britney Spears circa 2007.

Arent the olsen twins owners of a multi-million dollar company?
And I would include Miley for the fact that he career move is driven by alot of what the mouse denied her. she is clearly going through a long denied rebellious phase.

Nah, Miley is just getting mileage out of the media. To break and not be another Hilary Duff or even more unremembered Disney kid she needed to distance herself. She's doing an excellent job of it while still putting out music that tops charts generally.

Miley is far, far, far from the deep end. Remember, she's the daughter of a man who turned a mullet and one song into a career. Deep end also implies law breaking or rehab. Show me where Miley has been involved with any of it.

Nah, Hayden Panettiere has a hit TV show. Decently selling music album from said tv show. Got married and has a relatively young child (I wanna say under 2) and is now appearing in the Heroes reboot. Without a sound about her in the media. She's good

Britney Spears on the other hand basically lost it for a decade and only recently got her crazy under control.

No, it is not weird, but it certainly is interesting.

And I have to correct you, criticising Putin in a church is not a crime (nor is criticising Putin in general) in Russia. It is however a crime to show disrespect towards religion, disrupt religious services or desecrate holy places.

Surely OJ Simpson is the most prominent celeb turned bad? A dubious murder exoneration and then going down for armed robbery?

People of every walk of life can be weird, violent or criminal. People only get disappointed because they play a nice character on TV and hold them to some expectation. Celebrities live strange lives, they're often pressured by constant media attention and criticism but are surrounded in money and people with a liberal attitude towards drink and drugs. It's no real surprise that some turn out to be weird/criminal or go over the edge and do crazy things.

Brian Harvey was in a boyband called East 17 , who were reasonably big in the 90s.

He's done the usual -- engagement, break ups, divorce, loss of money, reality shows etc etc

Did the obligatory weird Youtube vids about conspiracy theories and "dark powers" out to get him etc etc.


In the UK however he's best "loved" for -- incredibly -- running himself over in a car that he was driving.

Because of a baked potato.

Mostly grand theft, felony vandalism, drink driving, resisting arrest and battery against a police officer. As well as struggling with an alcohol addiction.

Speaking of Randy Quaid...


MONTREAL – American actor Randy Quaid has been arrested again and is scheduled to appear before the Immigration and Refugee Board in Montreal on Thursday.

The circumstances behind the arrest — his second in Montreal this year — are unclear, but his wife tweeted late Tuesday that her husband had been detained.

Immigration and Refugee Board spokesman Robert Gervais confirmed that Quaid will have a detention review hearing before a commissioner on Thursday afternoon.

A Canada Border Services Agency spokeswoman was unable to provide any further details.

Quaid and his Canadian wife fled north of the border in 2010, saying they were the victims of persecution.

The couple have sought to stay in Canada and have said they were being hunted by “Hollywood star-whackers,” but their arrival in this country came as they faced a number of legal problems in the United States.

Quaid has been living in Montreal since January 2013 and was released after his most recent arrest. He had to post $10,000 bail and respect a host of other conditions that included checking in with border-agency officials every two weeks.

After arriving in Canada in 2010, the Quaids lived in Vancouver, Toronto and Ottawa before moving to Montreal.

The actor’s bid for permanent residency in Canada was denied in late 2012.

Her wiki page has been updated to include the arrest on Sep 15th but I've not seen any other updates to the story.

Aaaaaand here we go again. Seems like LaBeouf just can't catch a break.

Bruna Nessif wrote:Shia LaBeouf Arrested for Public Intoxication Outside of a Bar in Texas: See His Mug Shot



Shia LaBeouf got himself into trouble again.

The actor was arrested on Friday at around 7:30 p.m. outside of a bar on 6th Street in Austin, Texas, and charged with public intoxication, the Austin Police Department said in a statement obtained by E! News. It released a mug shot, which shows the actor sporting mustache and scruffy beard and wearing a blue T-shirt.

LaBeouf, who was in town for the Austin City Limits music festival, ran down the street and jaywalked in front of police, according to TMZ, who first reported the story, and officers gave the celeb a warning not to do it again.

Apparently, Shia didn't listen, and his antics caused authorities to put handcuffs on him and take him in. E! News has reached out to LaBeouf's rep for comment.

Shia's arrest quickly made it's way to the Twittersphere as locals who were also out at the bars tonight snapped photos and took videos of the 29-year-old being restrained by police.

LaBeouf has had a rocky couple of years, having been arrested for disrupting a performance of Cabaret and putting on a tear-filled performance art exhibit at a Los Angeles gallery. He later admitted he was going through an "existential crisis."

Most recently, the former child star got into a huge fight with ex-girlfriend Mia Goth in Germany back in July, and admitted he was afraid he "would have killed her."

In the video, obtained by Entertainment Tonight, the couple is seen yelling at each other outside of a taxicab near a hotel, where the 29-year-old actor can be heard threatening to get physical with his then-girlfriend. "I don't wanna touch you. I don't wanna be aggressive. This is the kind of s--t that makes a person abusive," LaBeouf told Goth.

The video then cuts to LaBeouf driving away with the group of people he met, backpack in tow. Even though he was seen putting his hands up as Goth approached him earlier, it seems that had he stayed the fight might have escalated into something further as he tells the people in the car, "If I'd have stayed there, I would have killed her."

I don't think anyone is surprised (or cares) about what Shia does. He's a crappy actor and a crappy human being.

A victim of his own fame. Stereotypical child actor. Does well as a kid, has reasonable success and goes on a path of self-destructive behaviour later.

Except he sucked in Transformers and he was abysmal in that test shot I saw of Indiana Jones 4. The trailer made me sick. So glad it ended up being cancelled.

I would consider those performances more a result of the script, because he was stellar in Fury.

Or the director.

In any case, this thread further confirms that South Park is right entirely too often.

He really, really is.

Fury -- great movie. Possibly underrated?

"outside of a bar on 6th Street in Austin, Texas, and charged with public intoxication"

But...that's what you do on 6th street in Austin, Texas on Fridays. You walk from bar to bar, listening to the bands, having a beer (two if the band is good), and walk back to your hotel.

That's like arresting a guy for whipping out his Willie Wonka at an adult theater...

The Beef tends to be far better in smaller movies or as a supporting character (see Fury or Battle of Shaker Heights) , it is just that when Hollywood decided to try and make him a marquee star (Transformers, Indiana Jones 4) it just didn't fit. You can't make someone into an action hero, essentially.


Looked up Battle of Shaker Heights to make sure I had the title right and man is that poster both awful and misleading.

Call me crazy but I always thought he got shafted for that because the fact he was in an adult theater. I mean cmon what'd you think happens in there?

I remember being confused about Paul Reubens' arrest when I was a child. I remember asking, "isn't that what that place is for?" I think more adults than children were shocked (or pretended to be) that Pee Wee Herman masturbated. What's the big deal?

Law, shmaw! If a man wants to go into a theater and slap around his salami, then who are you to tell him to stop choking his chicken! That is his private time with his one-eyed trouser snake!

Also, Austin is the party capital of Texas. Not quite Bourbon Street, but definitely not the Mormon Tabernacle!

Go Stros!

Damn.
