23. KATE MOSS LOSES GIGS OVER DRUG DRAMA
In September 2005, in what some might call a career ''high,'' the waify supermodel was featured on the front page of Britain's Daily Mirror allegedly snorting cocaine. Moss' extremely lucrative fashion contracts (including H&M, Chanel, and Burberry) quickly disappeared as sponsors reacted with shock — shock! — at the spectre of drug use invading the fashion industry. (Due to lack of evidence, Moss was not charged.)
CAREER IMPACT: MINOR Following a public apology and a rehab stint, Moss reestablished a few of her old deals, and inked a number of new ones. She has also recently debuted a well-received clothing line for London's trendy Topshop.
