Dr. Drew to Miley Cyrus: Seek Help!

You won’t believe this, but Dr. Drew Pinsky has an opinion on the Miley Cyrus salvia controversy . Asked by Access Hollywood about the video of that singer smoking a hallucinogenic herb at her 18th birthday party, Dr. Drew cited the divorce of Miley’s parents. “Her family’s in trouble, so it’s not unusual to see depression manifesting as various kinds of acting out behaviors. Adolescents don’t get depressed the way adults do. They don’t get sad and cry and withdraw. They often act out and become irritable… she seems to be suffering.” Dr. Drew thinks Miley Cyrus should seek help. Preferably on VH1, we’d imagine, in front of a camera and a certain exploitive therapist. What advice does the Celebrity Rehab host have for Miley? “If I had a child that was doing that or if I was advising a parent, I would say get professional help immediately,” he said. “This is a child who is in trouble and who is suffering and this is her way of trying to manage that. Get professional help.” So far, we’ve only heard one thing from Billy Ray Cyrus on the incident. He’s very sad about it .

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.

Charles Pearson Arrested For Stalking Dr. Drew Pinsky

Apparent nut job Charles Pearson has been apprehended for allegedly stalking quasi-celebrity Dr. Drew Pinsky. We know, Dr. Drew Pinsky has a stalker? Most stalking articles involve hot girls getting stalked ( Audrina Patridge ), pretending to be stalked (Tila Tequila) or doing the stalking ( Vienna Girardi ). This one? Just plain weird. Pearson was booked for felony stalking after he was arrested at Pierce College in Woodland Hills. Dr. Drew’s security team pinpointed his location there. The reason? He posted said location on his own site. Take note, young readers. Don’t post incriminating info online, especially if you’re stalking Dr. Drew. Pearson’s bail has been set at $150,000. Here’s his mug shot … Dr. Drew is no longer at risk from this stable individual . Dr. Drew’s team of cyber-security experts monitored and ultimately nabbed the alleged stalker yesterday after he made his location at the college available. Pinsky’s peeps spotted the post and immediately contacted cops at the Pasadena Police Department … who then alerted sheriff’s deputies at the college. Sources say a number of police officers and school security showed up to the library shortly after, cleared out a bunch of people and moved on Pearson. He was supposedly cooperative, at least. Guy sounds like a troubled fella in need of help. His ex, Sandra Obagi, obtained a restraining order in 2007, claiming he threatened her life, allegedly saying: “I have guns and I’m not afraid to use them.”
