Melissa Joan Hart recently penned a new tell-all memoir called "Melissa Explains It All," a take on her popular Nickelodeon children's show from the 90s "Clarissa Explains It All." Although the book is sub headed "tales from my abnormally normal life," Hart goes on to detail some stories that are anything but "normal."
Before becoming the tame mother of three that she is today, Hart was a teenage star who grew up with the limelight fading on her. From drug-fueled nights of partying to steamy make out sessions with co-stars and playboy girls, Hart's life has been an intense and often dark road to the bliss she has found with her family today.
"I experimented with weed, Ecstasy, mushrooms and mescaline for about a year and a half," she admitted to Life and Style Magazine. One of her more daring adventures involved taking Ecstasy at the Playboy Mansion in 1999 and then making out with a girl in the limo ride home. The next morning she had to go in for her famous Maxim photo shoot. When she did, she was still high from the drugs the night before.
"That was my third or fourth time on Ecstasy," she revealed. "I was just running with a bad crowd. I just didn't enjoy taking drugs. I don't like the loss of control."
The "Joey and Melissa" star went on to describe other romantic flings with Jerry O'Connell, even calling him a "man-whore" and Backstreet Boy Nick Carter. But it wasn't all Ecstasy and make out sessions. She admitted to kicking Ashton Kutcher out of her parties on two separate occasions for "making smartass remarks," she said. "Ashton and I just didn't get along."
"Melissa Explains It All" will hit book store shelves on Oct. 29 for those who want to learn more about the star's life behind the scenes and get a glimpse at what glowing up as a teen star in Hollywood was like for the former "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" star.
