Stars Whose Loved Ones Turn Into Vultures
What happens to stars whose parents or lovers turn on them and begin to use them — use them for their wealth or their fame and leave them struggling psychologically, often with substance abuse habits and/or extreme sexually promiscuous behavior? In short, these people who are abused by their nearest and dearest can often become psychologically scarred and dysfunctional.
What do Lindsay Lohan, Mike Tyson, Michael Jackson, and Gary Coleman have in common? Like many non-famous people in similar circumstances, they all have/had substance abuse issues and sexual pathologies. What these people share is a person (or persons) in their life who was supposed to be a source of support and love, who turned out to be an abusive user. Our analysis of the situation suggests this abusive behavior crushed the star and helped set them off on the road to destruction.
Mike Tyson had the gold-digging bitch from hell, Robin Givens, as a wife for barely a year. During that time, Givens' cruel abuse of sensitive and manic depressive Mike caused him to attempt suicide by driving his BMW at high speed into a tree. Luckily for Mike, his hard head and extremely powerful physique saved his life, but he was soon divorced from Givens. Givens only wanted Mike for his fame and wealth - she ridiculed him, would not allow him to hang around with her friends and in general looked down upon her husband. Mike was a very weak person who needed love and guidance - but what he got was the opposite - he married someone who made him feel even worse about himself than he already did. Following his divorce came his absurd rape conviction and a whole host of other calamities that should never have befallen a man who was perhaps the greatest natural talent in boxing history.
With Michael Jackson everybody knows how bad his father Joe Jackson is and was, using and abusing Michael as much as possible to provide himself with an opulent lifestyle. Michael's well-known later problems with questionable sexual proclivities and blatant and fatal drug abuse can largely be laid at his father's door.
Gary Coleman got it from both parents who outright robbed the talented and charismatic little fellow who should have been wealthy, but always struggled financially and emotionally with a terrible self image. Clearly he got the short end of the stick when it came to loving and nurturing parents. Every child needs love and support, but especially one like Gary who was very short and suffered from a serious congenital disease. Instead, he had parents ripping him off, and this played a major role in contributing to his personality disorder which essentially ruined his adult life.
