For these infamous households, drama runs in the family like a bad gene. Here is Scandalist‘s Top 10 Most Effed Up Celebrity Families featuring The Lohans, The Spears, The Hiltons and more!
Phillips
Members: John, Mackenzie, Bijou
Dinner Table Topics: Drug Abuse
Until recently, the storied Phillips family, infamous throughout Los Angeles, had been relatively quiet. After patriarch John's many marriages (once to Mamas and Papas bandmate Michelle Phillips who he met while she was a teenager) and more children, John's addictions only seemed to grow with age. After years of shooting heroin and coke and drinking excessively, John received a liver transplant, but was photographed drinking in a bar a few weeks afterward, where he stated he was "breaking it in." Eldest daughter Mackenzie, from John's first marriage, has long battled addiction, allegedly spending the entirety of her weekly salary from One Day At A Time ($47,500) on drugs until she was ultimately fired. She continued to struggle with addiction -- most recently at a Los Angeles airport where she was caught smuggling heroin and cocaine in baggies and balloons. Younger half-sister (and full-blown Scientologist) Bijou had to bail her sis out, who initially refused her help, then let her bail her out the following day. But Bijou's no stranger to drugs -- emancipated from her parents at 14, less than a year later she landed in an Arizona rehab. On the cover of Playboy before she was 20, she's developed an explosive, violent reputation, once fighting fellow Playmate Nicole Lenz in nightclub. But we're sure Scientology straightened everything out for her.
