The life of a celebrity seems perfect on the outside, but we continue to see that this is ultimately false. Demi Moore's recent hospitalization for "exhaustion," a euphemism for cracking under the pressure of fame combined substance abuse, is just another example of that. But as history has shown us, Demi isn't the first woman to struggle under spotlight. Read on for a detailed history of celebrities who have publicly broken down.

      oh they do, but if a guy shaved his head and had a few drunk nights, it would be normal. the press is sexist.

    Holy sexism. Seriously? I could list a ton of male celebs who could be included in this list and you couldn't come up with ONE? Gross.

    The post only features women because it was inspired by Demi Moore's recent troubles. Ever heard of that Charlie Sheen guy? We know men have breakdowns too. Sorry for any confusion. We've changed the headline for clarity.
