Has rehab simply become cool?

And apparently she was chasing her former assistant who had just quit on her!

So it was a drug induced car chase through LA?

Sounds like it and now she's been arrested I just came across this quote on my never ending quest on the internet

Lawrence Taylor, a former deputy district attorney and deputy public defender in Los Angeles who specializes in DUI cases, agreed. "She's definitely in some deep water," he said. "It's impossible to predict, but my best guess is she could be looking at anywhere from 30 to 180 days."

Check out the classy alcohol-monitoring bracelet. I guess they didn't have a charlie one available.

THE September issue of Harper's Bazaar has a lot of fun at the expense of rehabbing starlets. Instead of putting Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan on the cover, the editors chose Kate Hudson. Inside, Bazaar highlights the "rehab trend" with a fashion spread of a couture-clad Chloe Sevigny. "We satirize our rehab-obsessed society in a consciously irreverent feature with Chloe playing a starlet sent to a luxury rehab facility," said a spokesperson for the magazine. Sevigny dons a hat and sunglasses, carries a large water bottle and a dog, and reads about herself in "Troubled Times" - a 25-cent tabloid newspaper that covers the ins and outs of revolving-door rehab. Harper's Bazaar also points out that "September is National Recovery Month." Certainly there are many recovering celebrities to "celebrate" the season.

its not cool its convenient, gives them an opportunity to get bak in the media and spin it into a positive in that they are trying to redeem themselves, its setting a terrible example to younger generations in the process

Hah, never ever noticed the knickers. Such a horrible, 80s, meringue dress that I didn't even look at the full one.

@Emily - agreed on the redemption point. You could see that with Lohan being driven to rehab by her lawyer. That's clearly game playing, but for the likes of others, more B-Grade celebs I can't help but be cynical.
