Dr. Drew is such a classless fame whore. The celebrity “doctor” is now claiming that Amy Winehouse contacted him for help just before her death.
Drew says Amy was looking for advice on how to deal with addiction, and he was hoping to help her.
“Believe it or not she was trying to contact me,” he told KROQ L.A. radio hosts Kevin Ryder and Gene ‘Bean’ Baxter. “We could have maybe gotten her over here to someplace really good.”
He was also asked whether more people will look for help with their addiction after seeing what happened to Amy.
“That’s the craziness of addiction – the denial of addiction and the stinking thinking of addiction serves addiction nearly always,” he lamented.
Even if it is true that Amy reached out to him, isn’t a little tasteless bringing it up now. It’s more than obvious he is using this alleged conversation for his own personal gain. He looks like a bigger douche than before – just when you thought that wasn’t possible.
“In California, that would be a rape. Is it the same in Alaska?” he asks, which Bristol awkward replies that she didn’t know. She also tries to defend Levi’s actions.
Drew keeps pushing by saying, ”Did it feel like rape?” Bristol says nothing. “Now remember what kids do is they try to make it right by justifying what happened…”
The entire interview airs tonight on HLN. What do you think? Was Bristol raped or is that too much of a stretch. Levi is certainly a douchebag and a sleaze, but calling him a rapist might be a tad unfair.
Michael Lohan will be part of next season’s Celebrity Rehab, Radar Online has learned.
Dr. Drew Pinsky’s VH1 reality show will also feature ‘celebrities’ such as actress Bai Ling and Jeremy Jackson from Baywatch.
“I am at Celebrity Rehab and participating in the show to deal with the issues of codependency, to stop getting involved with and living through people who have addictions, who exhibit negative behavior and to avoid living vicariously thru them,” Lohan wrote. “I am looking to give my life the balance.”
So basically, Michael is saying he’s going to rehab so he’ll stop meddling with his daughter Lindsay’s life. As we all know, Lindsay Lohan has just come out of rehab and is slowly on her way to recovery. Props to her, she’s on the right path. But her path has been a bumpy one as Michael insists on telling the media every single detail of her life. And Dina? Well, Dina is the one who needs rehab the most, but we won’t get into that.
And now her father is going into rehab for ‘balance’? I mean, come on. The man obviously has bigger problems than what he says he does, and I think he needs to go to rehab for more serious things. And maybe he should do so, say, not on a TV show for the whole world to see. Fame whoring is what he’s addicted to, and that’s pretty much what he says he’s getting treated for. So good luck with that.
I don’t think his talking to the media will stop anytime soon. As long as Lindsay is involved in some sort of scandal, Michael will be there. Talking, blaming, and talking some more. But at the end of the day, I wish he would realize he is causing the biggest problems in his family. Just keep your mouth shut, don’t get television deals, and be a father. I bet you Dr. Drew doesn’t have that kind of advice.
TMZ is reporting that former ladywrestler Chyna was admitted to UCLA medical centre earlier today. Initially it was thought that she had alcohol poisoning, especially due to her complicated past with the substance, but it was later discovered that she overdosed on Benadryl.
Chyna took 4 to 5 times the suggested dosage of the allergy medicine to help her sleep last night. She woke up this morning unable to walk and with intense nausea.
It looks like the WWE star is going to be fine. She’s been put on an IV drip in the ER to rehydrate and will probably be released soon.
Chyna’s substance abuse problems came to light on Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab, where she openly admitted to having a severe alcohol dependency. Hopefully that addiction hasn’t been transferred over to Benadryl! That stuff can’t be good for you in high doses.
Maybe try some Sleepy time tea next time, Chyna Doll?
DMX (aka Earl Simmons) was arrested earlier today in Arizona (yes this is hardly news as it seems DMX gets arrested daily). TMZ reports that the rapper violated the terms of his probation by using illegal drugs from the past nine months.
His lawyer Gary Jenkins says “He’s been battling addiction for some time and he’s in need of treatment.” Additionally his lawyer commented that DMX needs serious help, potentially from somebody like celebrity therapist Dr. Drew Pinsky.
