One of Brooke Shields's career highlights:

Hollywood star Brooke Shields took method acting a bit too far in her latest film role. Trying to get into her character - a chain-smoking neurotic - she lit up so many cigarettes that she had to be carried off the set for emergency treatment. 'I chain-smoked so much I got nicotine poisoning,' confessed the 34-year-old actress, who got through 50 cigarettes in just a few hours. 'They had to hook me up to an oxygen machine.'", The Express (UK), Nov. 6, '99

Who else has gone to these heights?

OMg, that's awful. I had no idea. I have often wondered about that. I would never risk my life for a role like that if I was required to smoke. No amount of money is worth it. I hate smoking of any kind anyway, but there should be a way around that.
