Some of the people I'm closest with have hit extreme rock bottoms in life, as much as any celebrity.
I guess I feel sorry for famous people because bigger opportunities can mean a person has chances to make bigger mistakes, and they do so very publicly. After all, although I talk about my life openly, when I was going through my own rock bottoms, I wouldn't have wanted them splashed all over every magazine and TV broadcast...
I wish Mr. Bieber all the best! And, I've always been a bit of a Donny Osmond fan after seeing him in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"... along with the fact that I read an interview with him in which he stated that he was a virgin when he got married. Extremely rare... celebrity or not... and most admirable.

Donny Osmond is a perfect example of a young celebrity who had God in his life (and a God fearing family) and enjoyed a nice career without having to detox himself.
I actually hit rock bottom myself before turning to God. In my case there were no drugs or alcohol, just feelings of hopelessness, depression and despair.
