Leif Garrett Gets Arrested For Drug Possession...Again
Everytime I look at one of these tween stars I ask myself if any of them will end up like Leif Garrett. At his prime, Leif Garrett was the biggest of the big. Sold out concerts in every city around the world. He was on the cover of magazines every week. Television shows, movies, and then nothing. The only work he gets these days is spoofs on child actors or some VH-1 show looking at has beens. He was as big as a Jonas Brother. In twenty years we will be talking about some of these people that are at the top right now and will be just as rock bottom as Leif.
Yesterday Leif was arrested at a train station in LA and charged with possession. I don't know if he was begging for money or selling some drugs or just high and staggering around. I do know this is like arrest number bazillion for drugs and every chance he has been given over the past few years has been blown. Maybe this is the time he turns it around. Doubtful though. The picture above is from one of his earlier arrests.
The video below is Leif back in the day.
Justin Beiber...save your money.

ReplyDeleteSad :-(
ReplyDeleteI was around in the Leif Garrett era and wasn't a big fan of his, but I feel very sorry for him. I still remember that VH1 show where he confronted his friend who was paralyzed in the accident. Leif was so torn up and sobbing asking forgiveness and his friend had already forgiven him and was at peace.
Very very sad.
Color me shocked.
ReplyDelete10 bucks says it's meth!
ReplyDeleteWay to learn from your mistakes, Leif! *rolls eyes*
ReplyDeleteI wasn't around yet during the Leif area, but he was great in Cheerleader Camp... O_O lol
BTW watching that video, MAN he was really pretty...LOL
ReplyDeleteI like him on TruTV "Dumbest Criminals" with Bonaduce, Tonya Harding, et al.
ReplyDeleteThat's a funny show.
But all it did was apparently give Garrett $$ to buy more drugs with.
Sad.
In the US, incarceration is the answer to addiction.
Riiiiggggghhhhht.
Works great, doesn't it?!
Damn shame, throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that...
ReplyDeleteJust for clarification, this is a reference to the movie Better Off Dead, not a biggoted comment from myself.
he was before my time so i had to check the vid out. LOL wow, he looks girly
ReplyDeleteick
ReplyDeleteCLASSIC meth face. He should be on that web site "faces of meth."
ReplyDeleteso much for my 13 year old crush, sigh.
It's a shame what he has turned out to be NOW. These people hit it big, money, etc... and look how they end up.
ReplyDeleteso sad! I had his pictures all over my desk at school. I luffed him...
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine what led to such a fall. Guess he got in the death spiral and couldn't make it out. Blohan, beware.
ReplyDeleteHow could this happen to Leonard Unger?
ReplyDeleteI am old enought to remember when he was EVERYWHERE. He was a little too girly for me, but whenever he made a guest appearance on a show, everyone made sure to watch him.
I can't imagine what he looks like now if this is an older mugshot.
