Bookmarks - Internet stuff: Celebrity Rehab

Juliana Hatfield watches Celebrity Rehab, freeing up time for the rest of us to just sob silently to ourselves. This was Heidi Fleiss' last TV work before she went in to Celebrity Big Brother. But, obviously, there were others:

Mike Starr is the former bass player of Alice In Chains. He’s a “hardcore polydrug addict” in the words of Dr. Drew. When asked the inevitable — does he have any history of trauma — Mike tells the doc, “Yeah — trauma from losing my band.”

Being fired from Alice In Chains? Trauma?

“I was the best bass player/entertainer there was.”

Really, Mike Starr? Really? I never even knew the guy’s name (or face) until I turned on the TV to watch this show. I think part of Mike’s problem is that he has a little bit of a skewed perspective on himself and where he fits into the world and history.
