Celebs Struggling With Drug Addiction (updated)

41. Truman Capote

Truman Capote’s work can easily outweigh his monumental contributions to literature.

Nevertheless, we are here with a clear purpose – to unravel the mysterious death of the man who wrote the famous “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” Capote died in 1984 at the age of 59 and the most popular version names multiple drug intoxication as the cause of death.

Capote was not shy to admit that he would commit suicide if ever exposed to prolonged periods of being awake and drug-free. Something tells us that his preference for partners of the same sex had something to do with the inner struggle that eventually put him down.
