Do you know of any other examples of people brought through Hollywood then forced into conservatorships? I'm interested, but hard to feel sympathy for a multi-millionaire in the entertainment industry.
I understand what it means, I was looking for examples of it being done to other people. Just because it happens to one person doesn't mean they don't have mental problems or need it. Some other posters provided examples so I'm going to look into it some more.
n addition to Amanda Bynes and Brittney Spears, the following celebrities have either been under conservatorship or have been threatened with the possibility of court proceedings in that regard:
-There are reports that Charlie Sheens’ parents were seeking conservatorship;
-Lindsey Lohan’s father sought conservatorship, although that has not been granted;
-Amy Winehouse agreed to let her parents have conservatorship over her $21 million fortune;
-In 2009, the Court granted Kurt Cobain’s mother conservatorship over his daughter, Francis Bean, not because she was suffering from any mental illness or other incapacity, but to prevent her mother, Courtney Love, from getting her hands on her assets; and
-In 2009 Peter Falk was diagnosed with advanced dementia. His wife gained control of his affairs, but a judge place him in a conservatorship to ensure that his daughter could visit him at least once a month, as her relationship with his wife was strained.
Macaulay Culkin & Selina Gomez are just a couple child stars that divorced their parents. There’s some big names that have divorced or fired their parents. It seems like using their children for financial gain is pretty popular in Hollywood and the music industry.
You're thinking of Drew Barrymore, did a quick Wiki search on her. It says there that she wrote about ithat time in her life in an autobiography 'Little Girl Lost' and she was emancipated at age 15.

Yep. What kind of mother lets her young teenage daughter play a role like the one in the soft porn movie Blue Lagoon?
I seem to recall that the young girl from the ET movie did the same thing but I could have her confused with someone else.

That would make a lot of sense is that's what people mean when they say they sell their soul.
geezer who played Columbo.
