Andy Dick was reportedly found unresponsive in the streets of Hollywood, California. According to the pictures posted online by TMZ, the actor-comedian was seen slouching on the staircase outside of a building on Tuesday, as onlookers tried to help him.News.com.au reported that Dick might have collapsed from an apparent overdose as several people were screaming for Narcan, a medicine used to revive drug users.While more news is awaited on his current condition, it is worth noting that Dick, 59, has had a controversial life and has been blackballed from Hollywood ever since.For instance, in 1999, Jon Lovitz seemingly blamed Andy Dick for the untimely death of their mutual friend and fellow comedian, Phil Hartman. As it happened, Dick reportedly gave cocaine to Hartman’s wife and model-actress Brynn Omdahl during a Christmas party. At the time, she was a decade sober. However, she relapsed and eventually killed herself and her husband at their family home in a gruesome murder-suicide in May 1998.However, perhaps the final nail in the coffin for Dick’s career happened when he was accused of s*xual misconduct on set and fired from the cast of the movie, Raising Buchanan, in October 2017.Exploring the Phil Hartman and ‘Raising Buchanan’ scandals surrounding Andy DickActor-comedian Jon Lovitz sat down with political commentator and talk show host Dennis Miller in July 2007 and explained why he held Andy Dick responsible for the death of Phil Hartman.According to Lovitz, a few months after the tragedy, he replaced Hartman on the sitcom Newsradio, which also starred Dick."[Andy] was just complaining and really giving me a hard time for no reason. Phil told me that they had a Christmas party, and Andy was doing cocaine, and he gave it to Phil's wife, Brynn, who had been sober for 10 years. So, Andy said to me, 'Well, you shouldn't be here,' and I said, 'Well, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't given Brynn coke in the first place,'" Jon explained.However, after the show, the duo “made up” and Lovitz apologized as he realized what happened to Phil and Brynn wasn’t Andy’s fault. But things went sideways when Andy arrived at the Lovitz-owned restaurant and seemingly told people sitting at the next table:“I put the Phil Hartman hex on you; you’re the next one to die.”The Saturday Night Live member added of Dick:"He's standing there with liqueur dripping down his chin… And he's smiling, and my blood just went to my head. I wanted to smash him, but if I hit him, he would have gone flying into the table behind him. He was really drunk."Andy Dick At #NotWithHim Event - Arrivals - Source: GettyThe pair next met at the Laugh Factory comedy club in LA, and Lovitz was expecting an apology from Andy Dick. Instead, Dick reportedly charged back at him for holding him accountable for what happened to their friend Phil.It ended in a physical altercation, which had to be broken up by the bar’s doorman.It is noteworthy that Andy Dick has also been publicly blamed for the deaths of David Strictland and Chris Farley, both of whom died of an overdose. However, he was never legally held responsible, nor has he ever regretted his lifestyle.Instead, he told Time Magazine in 1999:“There are all kinds of addictions, and I’ve got every single one. If you set me in front of anything, I will do it until I ram it into the ground and it’s done working for me. Until I lose all my money, until there is no love left, until the drugs or alcohol don’t work.”However, what got Andy Dick blacklisted from the industry was s*xual harassment allegations from the cast and crew of Raising Buchanan in 2017. At the time, he was accused of groping, touching g*nitals, unconsented kissing/ licking, and other inappropriate behavior by at least four individuals.Andy Dick later denied the groping accusation but admitted to making advances, claiming he was “single, depressed, and lonely”, often trying to “get a date.”“They can just say no, and they probably did, and then I was done… I don’t grope people anymore. I don’t expose myself anymore. I do understand that the temperature in the world right now is delicate…” he told The Hollywood Reporter back then.Andy Dick continued:“I didn’t grope anybody. I might have kissed somebody on the cheek to say goodbye and then licked them. That's my thing. I licked Carrie Fisher at a roast. It’s me being funny. I’m not trying to s*xually harass people. I didn’t grab anybody’s g*nitals.”He also joked that “misconduct” was his “middle name,” adding that his defending convicted s*x offender Harvey Weinstein might have worsened his position.“They were so incensed by what I was saying. People are so sensitive.”When asked whether he was sober on set or not, Andy Dick shared that he “overtook my medication and took many Xanax”, which made him “a bit loopy,” but didn’t turn him into an alleged r*pist. Notably, he has a history of alcohol and cocaine abuse.Around the same time, he was also accused of being late on set, failing to memorize his lines, and bringing friends who reportedly caused trouble. Dick ended his interview with THR by saying he won’t go kissing/ licking people around, but would consider retiring if more misconduct allegations came up against him.Back then, the Charleston native was promoting his documentary, Everybody Has an Andy Dick Story.Other controversies surrounding Andy DickAndy Dick’s legal troubles began in 1999 when he was charged with cocaine possession and was sentenced to an 18-month rehab after slamming into a post, nearly running over a pedestrian while driving in Hollywood, and trying to flee the scene.Five years later, Dick faced an indecent exposure charge at a McDonald’s joint.
