15 Lovable celebs who ruined their own careers (With Pictures)

13. Courtney Love

Courtney Love started off as the singer of the band Hole, became semi-successful and then very famous when she married Kurt Cobain. She then turned to acting, playing the role of Althea inThe People vs. Larry Flynt. She received critical praise for her role of the junkie wife of Larry Flynt. Instead of building on this performance she went the route of self-destruction, turning to drugs and becoming more of an eclectic artist capable of pulling a publicity stunt at any moment. (Remember the menstrual blood wedding dress?) Hollywood execs refer to these people as risks and are not prone to giving them work.
