Today's Blind Items - The Drugs - Old Hollywood

This actress was permanently A list. All of you know her. She got addicted to pills at a very young age. Producers would give them to her when they wanted to sleep with her. They would give the teen some sleeping pills and she would either be drowsy or asleep when the producers assaulted her. She knew what they were going to do when they gave her the pills. The problem was she started craving the pills. It interfered with her acting though, so for many years she wasn't allowed to have any on set and someone would watch her 24/7. As soon as she finished a movie, she would go on a weeks long bender until the next film. Later in life, producers actually encouraged her to take pills on set because she was so annoying. Then, when they needed her, someone would put smelling salts under her nose and she would come film her scenes.
