Jamie Lee Curtis talks about her struggles with drug addiction
June 23, 2008 by Wendy Boswell
Jamie Lee Curtis has revealed a former addiction to painkillers in a VERY candid interview.
Apparently, her addiction started about 15 years ago; she started getting small plastic surgery procedures after being told by a crew member of a film she was working on that she was developing bags under her eyes (hello? What a jerk!). She didn’t like getting the procedures, because she felt more and more unnatural, and she was also getting depressed and lonely, so she started taking painkillers to stave off the issues. In fact, she stole painkillers from her sister - later feeling so bad that she wrote her a very poignant letter:
‘I’ve been harbouring a bad secret. I have found and taken many of your painkillers. I’ve betrayed you, and I know that you’re angry, and you have every right to be. I am lonely. I take them at night to ease the pain. I was so afraid to tell you.’
She eventually conquered her addiction and made some very positive changes in her life, and now volunteers as an anti-drug counselor. Honestly, I love her courage for coming forward with this; I’m sure it was mega embarrassing. Maybe she should talk to Amy Winehouse? Be her mentor? Oh, forget it - she’s screwed.

Watch Jamie Lee Curtis’s new commercial for Activia yogurt!

For reals, yall - this yogurt is overpriced and doesn’t taste that great. You can get the same effect (read: loose bowels) with regular yogurt and/or a handful of chocolate raisins followed by a prune milkshake. FYI!
