Sometimes it's a dark road that leads to the top. Jack Osbourne had to hit rock bottom before he could start to sober up.

The British reality star recently said his utmost low was one awful weekend full of booze and drugs that ultimately made his parents send him off to rehab to help lick him back into shape.

The 20-year-old star, the son of Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, was sent to a clinic by his parents to be treated for drug and alcohol addiction when he was just 17. But Jack made sure he only turned his back on his wild ways after one final hedonistic blow out.

He said, "I just got in a real bad way with drink and drugs. Mum (sic) came to me and was like, 'We're sending you off.' I ran away for around four days and then came back after a very strange and exciting weekend involving different hotel rooms and not-so-nice characters and not-so-safe things."

He added, "I came back broken and was like, 'I can't do this anymore.' But I went out with a bang."
