The video shows Campbell wearing a bra and underpants and missing a tooth while pumping an Atlanta rapper’s gas.

“I want some crack,” she says as the rapper films.

The troubled star, who struggles with bipolar disorder, also goes into detail about a guy raping her “like Cosby”.

The video went viral, causing LL to condemn the rapper filming it.

“Instead of pulling out your phone and filming someone who’s obviously having trouble. Maybe lend a helping hand? A kind word?” he tweeted.

The 40-year-old actress has been vocal about her problems with addiction in the past, sitting down with Oprah Winfrey’s show Fix My Life in 2012 while she was in a rehab facility.

After her stint on the show with life coach Iyanla Vanzant, the actress was sober for two years, saying she was determined to get her life back on track.

 

Campbell, who is also a former child star, gave birth to a daughter in 2000 but lost custody after she refused to take her medication.

She has previously been arrested for drug possession, prostitution and disorderly conduct.
