DMX Sent Back to Jail; Dr. Drew to the Rescue?

Can Dr. Drew save DMX from six months in the slammer? That’s the rumor going around, and if it’s even half true, it’s the most ridiculous rehab story we’ve heard. Okay, second most ridiculous. Evander Holyfield seeking out Dr. Phil after allegedly beating his wife , then getting indignant and storming out? That’s gotta be first. In any event, DMX was just sentenced to six months in jail for violating his probation. His first arrest of 2010 took place last week after he was busted with drugs. Seeing as DMX comprises approximately half our celebrity mug shot gallery, he was on probation at the time, and thus violated it, leading to his return to prison. But rehab could save him yet. Dr. Drew: DMX’s trusted savior and confidant? DMX admitted to five probation violations at his hearing last week, claiming they were the result of using illegal drugs. Here’s where the Celebrity Rehab doc comes in. During the hearing, a rep from the Pasadena Recovery Center gave the judge a letter from Dr. Drew Pinsky, asking permission to treat X at his facility … in lieu of jail. X himself reached out to Dr. Drew upon his arrest. Looks like it worked. The judge seemed open to the idea, although no decision has been made yet. We can only hope it happens, and that cameras film all of the odd couple’s interactions.

DMX Arrested, Reaches Out to Dr. Drew

DMX was arrested Tuesday in Arizona, marking approximately the 126th time the rapper has been taken into custody for some legal matter of another. This time, though, he wants to turn things around, and his lawyer is reaching out to the one man that DMX believes can save him … Dr. Drew Pinsky. The details of the arrest are unclear, but attorney Gary Jenkins tells us “He has been battling addiction for some time and he’s in need of treatment.” Jenkins adds, “We’re hoping that maybe Dr. Drew might be able to help him.” Maybe now that he got that crazy stalker off his ass, he’ll have free time. Can Dr. Drew help DMX get clean? DMX mug shots over the past two years are almost too numerous to count. Jenkins added, however, “He’s a talented man … we’re praying for him.” While unconfirmed, two reports suggest that DMX violated his probation by using illegal drugs and was booked on five counts of probation violation. It’s also being reported that he let fly a few expletives during his initial court hearing last night, which wouldn’t surprise us in the least. This is DMX.
