Linda Blair
Linda Blair was a child model and actor before she was cast as Regan In The Exorcist. She had been picked from 600 possible candidates. Linda Blair quickly became prominence and even won the Golden Globe. She was likely to win an Academy Award. But when it was revealed that some characters were not done by Linda (the vocals of the demonic were dubbed and 8 seconds were captured by a stuntman), that dream fell apart. Linda was able to secure the lead role in a number of movies, including the wildly popular TV film Born Innocent. However, Linda was detained when she was forced to purchase cocaine by a peer group when she reached 18 and was sentenced to a three year probation sentence. Linda's work within Hollywood was severely damaged by the drug bust, that was widely reported. Linda now appears often on TV as well as B-movies.
