Robert Downey

Our favorite superhero Robert Downey AKA Iron Man, wasn’t always a hero. Downey has been arrested on drug charges multiple times and has been through numerous unsuccessful rehab programs.

Downey told the judge after one of his failed rehab programs that “It’s like I’ve got a shotgun in my mouth with my finger on the trigger, and I like the taste of the gun metal.”

Luckily he turned his life around after years of drug abuse and arrests. His first post rehab job was in one of Elton John’s music video and he returned back to the big screen in the movie The Singing Detective in 2003. Today he’s one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood.
