Christina Ricci glad she isn’t a child star

Christina Ricci is glad she’s not a child star in today’s world. The actress — who shot to fame playing Wednesday Addams in The Addams Family when she was just nine — is grateful she wasn’t hounded by photographers like many young actors are at the moment, meaning she could lead a relatively normal life.

“You know, I made all the mistakes a lot of young stars are making today. I partied, I drank. But during my time there weren’t that many photographers around. I had more freedom!” she said.
 
Christina says when the pressures of fame get too much for her, she unwinds by just chilling at her home.
 
“If I feel stressed, I take a personal day, which basically entails me being on my couch with a book and my puppy! I don’t leave the house. And I like to visit my friends, and just hang out with my family,” she said.
