Celebrities and substance abuse?

Question by Hey…you asked!: Celebrities and substance abuse?
Are there disproportionately more drug addicts and alcoholics among celebrities than the rest of society?
I have heard so many stories about people in the entertainment industry with substance abuse problems that it seems there are more in this sub-culture than in others.
I could very well be wrong though, as being a celebrity also means that your addiction will get more attention.
What do you think?

Also look at young sports figures. Who said youth is wasted on the young?
