4. Robert Downey, Jr.
Junior is an actor who enjoys being the “badass” of Hollywood and especially nurtures his bad-boy, troublemaker image. Every boy on the planet wants to be known for what Downey’s famous for (both in his roles and in real life) – doing whatever he wants and getting away with it.
This way of behavior is probably heavily influenced by his early years. His father Robert Downey Sr., who was also an actor and a filmmaker, was addicted to drugs and raised Downey Jr. in a world surrounded by drugs. He allowed him to smoke marijuana at the age of six, and drug use became a regular thing in Robert’s life, serving as an emotional bond between him and his father. Downey Jr. explained:
“When my dad and I would do drugs together, it was like him trying to express his love for me in the only way he knew how.”
