Von Teese's Drug-ravaged Boobs

Dita Von Teese went under the knife for a boob job at the age of 21 - because years of drug abuse had ravaged her body.

The burlesque beauty admits she began dabbling with illegal substances when she was a teenager, and her habit spiralled out of control throughout the 1990s.

Von Teese confesses the drugs took a major toll on her figure, but seeing herself so gaunt gave her the motivation to kick her addictions and she eventually opted for surgery to repair the damage.

She says, "I was a bit of a party girl in the early '90s and used LSD and Ecstasy. Eventually my weight dropped to 6st 7lbs and I looked terrible, so I gave up drugs. My breasts never recovered, so when I was 21 I had 32D implants. Now I'm a healthy 8st 2lbs."
