Character Dr Drew Pinsky Empire Jussie Smollett

JUSSIE SMOLLETT DUG HIS OWN GRAVE

Dr Drew summed up the whole unfortunate and dismal Jussie Smollett situation with one word. The celebrity doctor pointed out that Jussie has not been admitted to a mental hospital or rehab (defense lawyers encourage that in hopes of a less harsh sentence) therefore Dr Drew asserts that’s it’s not a mental health situation – it’s a CHARACTER issue. Which is worse, of course, because it means Jussie is a manipulative and self-serving person – wholly unsympathetic. On the upside, this situation has taught all of us not to jump to conclusions. Funny, we just heard is that Jussie is suddenly claiming he has an untreated drug problem… Dr Drew was right on target.

Celebrity Rehab Dr Drew Pinsky Mindy McCready Overdose Suicide

DR DREW HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MINDY McCREADY’S DEATH

#mindymccready #janetcharlton

Blaming Dr Drew Pinsky for the death of Mindy McCready or any of the other Celebrity Rehab patients who eventually overdosed is beyond ridiculous. Every one of his celebrity patients who died was a long term substance abuser and didn’t want to help themselves. Besides McCready’s suicide, actor Jeff Conaway, police brutality victim Rodney King, Real World participant Joey Kovar, and musician Mike Starr, have overdosed. It’s a sad fact that some addicts simply do not want to be “cured” and do not respond to any kind of help. Dr Drew doesn’t have a higher number of casualties than other addiction specialists- they‘re just more visible. Sadly, some people simply cannot be saved.

MOVE OVER DARLING, DORIS DAY IS RELEASING A NEW ALBUM

We couldn’t pass up this bit of nostalgic news. 87 year old Doris Day has just released her first album in 17 years called “My Heart.” Good for HER! It’s a personal collection of songs that reflect her love for her late son Terry Melcher and her animals. Music producer/songwriter Terry produced several of the songs before he died in 2004. Doris was a huge boxoffice star in the 1960’s, but when her husband Marty Melcher died in 1968, she discovered that he had squandered all her money and left her deeply in debt. No wonder she prefers animals. Sony released this recent photo of Doris with her dog Duffy to promote the album.

Booze Celebrity Rehab Crimes and Misdemeanors Dr Drew Pinsky Jason Wahler Real Estate

JASON WAHLER CREDITS DR DREW WITH CHANGING HIS WASTED LIFE

Dr Drew doesn’t have a high success rate with his addicted patients on Celebrity Rehab, but that’s the nature of the beast. Only time will tell, but it seems he might have succeeded with Jason Wahler. Lauren Conrad’s ex boyfriend on “The Hills” (who sometimes bears a striking resemblance to Colin Farrell) had six alcohol related arrests up until last June. Season 4 of Rehab is still airing, but Wahler says he’s cleaned up his act. He was “scared straight” when he realized he was drinking as much as a fifty year old alcoholic. Rooming with Jason Davis was another revelation. Wahler figured out what he DIDN’T want to do with his life. He says he’s moved back to Orange County and started skateboarding and surfing again. His family’s in the business, so he’s getting a real estate license. Good start.

Celebrity Rehab Dr Drew Pinsky Drugs The Wendy Williams Show

DR DREW WANTS TO KEEP YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUGS OUT OF TEENAGERS’ HANDS

Photo Credit: Bauer-Griffin
Dr Drew Pinsky, who’s become a steamy hot sex symbol for mature women, visited The Wendy Williams Show to promote his new anti-drug product called “Rx Locker.” It’s a box that fits in your medicine cabinet and keeps four prescription bottles under lock and key – and out of teenagers hands. Not a bad idea- and it only costs $15.00. Lindsay Lohan’s parents could have used one of these.

Celebrity Rehab Dr Drew Pinsky Gary Busey

CELEBRITY REHAB'S GARY BUSEY LAUGHED ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK

Celebrity Rehab is so juicy we wish it were on every day instead of once a week. It’s just amazing to see how these celebrities live their drug addled lives. Dr Drew Pinsky has a real challenge when it comes to Gary Busey. On episode 3 he still hasn’t convinced Gary that he’s a patient and not a counselor. When born-again Gary signed up for the show, he told friends he was, indeed a counselor. Dr Drew is treating Gary’s “lack of self control” and other issues of denial. (He DID have that horrendous motorcycle accident and brain damage.) We hear that Gary is not leaking details about the show events or ending, but he thinks he came away better and figured out some of his problems. Plus, of course, he was happy with the $100,000 paycheck.

Celebrity Rehab Dr Drew Pinsky Gary Busey Heidi Fleiss Jeff Conaway Rodney King Sean Stewart Tawny Kitaen

CELEBRITY REHAB: WILL ADDICTS TAKE ADVICE FROM GARY BUSEY?

We were really disappointed to learn that Heidi Fleiss has backed out of appearing on Celebrity Rehab – and at the last minute. She would have been fun to watch. Rod Stewart’s problematic son Sean Stewart signed up for the treatment – we’re betting daddy cut him off and he needs money. And weepy, whiney, Jeff Conaway is COMING BACK. He seems doomed to repeat all his mistakes. Another interesting patient will be Rodney King, the lovely man whose arrest started the 1992 racial riots in LA. Sexy video vixen Tawny Kitaen is best known for being arrested for battering her exhusband Chuck Finley with her high heel boots. To top it off, crazy, born again Gary Busey will be a drug counselor! (We KNOW he needs the money) Can you IMAGINE taking advice from Gary? Dr Drew Pinsky (shown above with last year’s grads) is in for a WILD RIDE. The show will air in October.
