Von Teese 'had surgery after drug abuse'
Dita Von Teese has confessed that she underwent surgery for a boob job at the age of 21 after years of drug abuse ravaged her body.

According to Contactmusic, the star admitted that she began experimenting with illegal substances when she was a teenager and her habit slowly grew out of control during the 1990s.

Von Teese went on to say that her drug addiction took a major toll on her figure and she eventually opted to undergo surgery to repair the damage.

She said: "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."
