Stephanie Tanner a Junkie!!

Recommended Posts

Former Full House cutie Jodie Sweetin has earned herself a spot on the lengthy list of child stars gone wrong.

 

During an appearance on Good Morning America Wednesday, Sweetin, who played middle sister Stephanie Tanner on the hit sitcom, revealed that she is a recovering meth addict and once battled a daily drug habit.

As usual, thesuperficial.com has the best commentary on this:

It has recently come to light that Stephanie Tanner Jodie Sweetin was a meth addict. Two years ago she was unemployed and bored and began by experimenting. Soon, she was using meth everyday. At some point a three-day bender ensued, as well as an intervention staged by her Full House castmates -- including Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, John Stamos and Bob Saget. Sweetin said she checked herself in to the Promises drug rehab facility for six weeks of intense treatment. She's been clean and sober since March of last year and now wants to get back into acting.

 

"I want to make movies, TV series, wherever the career takes me," she said. "I really hope this isn't the last people hear of me. In fact, I would like to make this a footnote in my career, not the end."

 

I would've loved to have been at that intervention. That's what tv reunion shows should be like; the meth-addicted daughter, the anorexic twins. The befuddled yet slightly aroused father, trying to talk everyone down and see if anyone will get naked. Really, the only thing missing from Stephanie's wayward story is a dip into low-budget pornography, something like Full House of Lesbians. Seems a shame to waste a custom-built porn name like Sweetin. But there's still plenty of time.

This is why you make some of us nervous, Barron. Some of us are sitting here thinking about how we can convince Jody Sweetin to suck our dicks for a hit of meth, and you're going on about some TV show she worked on when she was like 10.

 

You're an odd little man.

Some of the early episodes are kinda bad, and Joey can get annoying, but I like it.

 

The episodes in the later years were WAY too focused on Michelle though. The Stephanie-Gia episodes were usually good stuff

I think Bob Barron and I are a lot alike in many ways, except that he likes Saturday Night Live, and I prefer Mr. Show. He likes famous teenage girls, and I just like teenage girls that I'm friends with. Bob has unkempt curly hair under a dirty Braves hat, I have unkempt, thick, well-conditioned hair under a weathered Cubs hat. I guess Bob and I really aren't so alike.

I've always pictured you as looking like the guy on the extreme right of your sig.

 

At least, that's the picture I fantasize about when I touch myself at night.

Full House is on right now.

 

It's the one where Joey puts watching the Super Bowl over Michelle's science group.

 

Yawn, Stephanie is only in one scene.

Anyone else think that Sweetin's drug intervention ended like an ep of Full House. With Danny saying no matter what drugs she does she'll always be apart of the family with some sickling sweet music playing in the background. And then it ends in a group hug.

 

And then Jessie yells out "Have Mercy"

 

And then the twins yell out "You got it dude".

You've gotta feel like shit when, of all people, the Olsen twins are telling you to clean up and straighten out your life.

Why would she admit to it when she's apparently been clean for a year anyway? She wants attention.

 

And while this really has nothing to do with the subject, I'll say it anyway. That episode of Family Guy where Brian is talking to that girl about John Coltrane and they say they like him before he got clean. Everybody knows Coltrane's best work was after he was off the junk. That's just something people say to sound cool, like James Bond ordering his drink shaken, not stirred.

You just know Uncle Jessie did drugs back in the day.
