Janice Dickinson, one of the first supermodels and a "reality television personality," went bankrupt in 2016 to over $1 million in debt.

Despite being one of the most recognizable faces in modeling during the 80s and 90s, Dickinson's financial problems stemmed from unpaid taxes, legal suits, and her splurges.

Her business ventures and the reality show The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency failed to provide the long-term financial stability she was seeking. Dickinson's bankruptcy is a stark reminder of the volatility that can come with fame and fortune in the entertainment industry.
