Keep coming back, it works if you work it! Several famous actors, musicians and athletes are in Alcoholics Anonymous for recovery. Some of these celebs in AA were ordered to attend meetings by a court, while others chose to join the organization to help battle their addictions.

Who is the most famous person in AA? Lindsay Lohan tops our list. Remember when Lindsay Lohan's "Sex List" was leaked to the media? The actress said that writing down the names of her partners was part of her fifth step of AA. In 2012, it was reported that Demi Moore was mourning the death of her AA sponsor, Patsy Rugg.

Several famous men are also members of Alcoholics Anonymous. “I had to go to Alcoholics Anonymous, I am not ashamed of that," said Al Pacino. "I did not start their program but I found it very supportive and meaningful. I did stop drinking. Not immediately. But I did stop." Glenn Beck, Mel Gibson, Tobey Maguire, and Owen Wilson are also reportedly in AA or have since recovered from alcoholism.

These recovering Hollywood celebrities are doing their best to better themselves with the help of Alcoholics Anonymous. Be sure to let us know what you think in the comment section!
