Britney Spears went there, and so did Lindsay Lohan. Mel Gibson did too, and I even think that Isaiah Washington went there to cure himself of homophobia, or whatever the reason was. Yup, it's celebrity rehab, and there's another person who has joined the club: Desperate Housewives star Jesse Metcalfe (though he's not on it that much this year).
Metcalfe's publicist has announced that he entered a rehab on March 19 to "deal with alcohol issues" and he "hopes that the media will allow him the privacy to deal properly with his treatment."
I'd like to take this opportunity to announce that I too will be going into rehab. I've been addicted to television and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups for far too long and it's time I did something about it.

I love how celebs' people send out news releases about whatever freaky thing, and then ask that we respect their privacy.
Dudes, you're the ones who sent out the press release.

Maybe he went there based on the news of "Passions" cancellation?

I don't know who this guy is, except that he's evidently a fan of Foreigner.

#4, you hit it on the head, publicists are liars that are paid to get their clients names in the news, then they make outrageous claims as if they don't know anything about the situation...Nothing like a little rehab to get attention. I think the 'rehab' excuse along with the 'arrested for dui' little publicity games are played out now, people!
