All this publicity will only bring her more $$$ for her next movie.

Hardly. She's gotten a reputation as unreliable and the bond companies are refusing to insure the productions. A movie a couple of weeks from shooting got cancelled for just that reason last week, and the producers are scrambling to get it set up again with a different actress. Movies aren't cheap to make and you have to pay all those technicians and grips and gaffers and craft service people who showed up for work, even if you can't shoot anything because the actress was too hung over to come to the set that day. There was an article yesterday that said she could well be forced into insuring any future productions out of her own pocket.

Plus, she's trashed her image can't plausibly play the "sweet and innocent" roles that have defined her career (Freaky Friday, Mean Girls, Herbie) anymore. She's going to be cast down into the lower levels of Hollywood freakdom as a human trainwreck and punchline in straigh-to-video hell. (See also: Gary Busey)
