Chabert Put Off Drinking After Teenage Wine Session
Mean Girls star Lacey Chabert gave up alcohol after her one and only boozy experience when she was 17.
The actress was struggling to play drunk in a episode of TV hit Party Of Five, so she decided to guzzle wine to help her relax into her character.
But her first encounter with alcohol was her last - because she was so sick.
She tells Maxim magazine, "In the hair and make-up trailer beforehand they gave me a glass of red wine... I'd never had a drink before.
"I held my nose and just downed it. I got so drunk I couldn't remember my dialogue. After the scene everyone applauded . I don't think anyone knew the truth.
"I actually got sick the next day just from that and haven't cared for alcohol since."
