Alexandra Holzer: In 2006, Vanity Fair's Hollywood March issue featured you. What a wonderful moment that must have been. However, it hasn't always been that way. Talk to me about your past drug addiction and methamphetamine in Hollywood. How did you turn it all around, and what advice would you give others?

Oddly enough, I got sober before I was even at the legal drinking age.
