She is best remembered for her role as Gertie in the 1981 blockbuster film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, directed by her godfather, Hollywood Icon, Steven Spielberg.
Fast forward to today and you'll see her standing at the helm of Superstardom, enjoying life as one of Hollywood's top 10 highest paid thespians. But like current Papparazi favorites -- Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and Paris Hilton -- she has her share of salacious moments; smoking cigarettes, alcohol problem, marijuana episodes, snorting cocaine and going into rehab twice. All these happened before she reached 15.
She bounced back as she approached adulthood beginning with the VHS hit Poison Ivy. The 1996 thriller Scream forged her stature as a highly bankable star.
Aside from her tumultuous childhood, previous sex symbol image, and crowd-drawing films, she also caught the attention of the media because of her cosmetic enhancement. Twice, she went under the knife to reduce her chest size. First was when she was 16 and the second was in 2006 or early 2007.
Coming from a clan of actors may have provided her an easy ascent upwards the Hollywood mainstream but the lures and vices of the trade had also offered her a slow but sure descent. Having risen above her debacles and being where she is right now only proves that she is worth the second chance.
Ah! This is such a no-brainer!
Here she is...
