8. Kelly Osbourne – Vicodin Addiction At 13
Jack wasn’t the only offspring of Ozzy’s to get addicted to drugs and alcohol at a young age. Kelly blames some of the roots of her addiction on taking liquid Vicodin as a 13-year-old when she had her tonsils taken out. She began clubbing at age 16 and started to get hooked on the pill form of Vicodin. From there, she was off and running. She was taking upwards of 50 a day tossing more than six down at a time. It took multiple trips to rehab and then a stay at a psychiatric ward to get Kelly’s addictions under control. Although she cites her issues with addiction back to her tonsils getting taken out, having a rock star father chase you and your friends around in his underwear while drunk is a rough way to grow up. Kelly was also exposed to other rockers when their father was doing shows. She recalls when Motley Crue babysat her and her brother. Certainly, the Osbournes could have benefited from Care.com.
