There are millions of people around the world whose dream is to be widely known. People who want their names in the spotlight. Maybe they wanna sing, perform on Broadway, or maybe even star in movies. For a lot of these people, they will move to places like Hollywood or New York City, and they'll work for years to get their big break in showbiz.

However, the reality is only a fraction of the people with this dream will actually go on to achieve it. As we know, the industry is pretty selective. So the stars that do make it big are the lucky ones. They have it all. Money, fame, nice houses, luxury cars, notoriety. But sometimes being at the top isn't all that it's made out to be.

70.715 - 93.075 Courtney Browen

And in the story we have for you today, you'll see just how true that statement is. In the early 2000s, actor Johnny Lewis was on his way to becoming a household name. At just 28 years old, he had already starred in the main cast of four popular TV shows, becoming a fan favorite character in the breakout hit, Sons of Anarchy.

93.516 - 108.054 Courtney Browen

He also walked the red carpets with his once girlfriend, pop star Katy Perry. But in late 2012... Johnny Lewis came in the spotlight for a very different reason. So this is his story. I'm Courtney Browen.

108.495 - 109.717 Colin Browen

And I'm Colin Browen.

Thank you.
