Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino confessed to spending at least $500,000 on his “reckless” drug addiction.
The “Jersey Shore” star opened up about the one of the lowest points of his life, explaining how starring in the hit MTV reality show from 2009 to 2012 helped fuel his drug dependency.
“I did spend about half a million dollars on cocaine and oxycodone,” he told Entertainment Tonight in an interview published Monday.
