An excellent point. Hollywood is reaping what it has sown.
Those who are gifted with the talent to sing, dance, act or otherwise entertain are very fortunate. Through some combination of genetics, skill, practice, and determination they have the potential to lead exceptionally successful and fulfilling lives. If they instead throw it all away because of addiction, it’s is society’s loss as well.
It’s a shame everytime a life is wasted, celebrity or not, but even more of a tragedy to see an industry that embraces and encourages such life-destroying behavior when it has the power to do the exact opposite.
Hollywood, is the opium of the people. Heck, it makes opium the religion.
