Blind Item #3
He probably thinks at this point, he is too old to go to rehab, but he really isn't that old. This alliterate former A+/A list mostly movie actor who was also A list on television back in the day is hooked on pain pills again and is combining them with a whole lot of wine.
you're never too old for rehab.

ReplyDeleteChevy Chase??
ReplyDelete@james & MD
ReplyDeletebingo!
Maybe Nick Nolte he also fits.
ReplyDeleteAlan Alda
ReplyDeleteNote was in the news a couple of days ago wearing the exact shirt, now extremely faded, that he wore in his famous arrest photo. He was wearing hospital pants as well. He looks like shit.
ReplyDeleteThis is him.
*Nolte
DeleteVince Vaughn
ReplyDeleteRich Man, Poor Man was a big deal (Google it, younguns) but did it really make Nolte A list TV? He never had a series; just that, a couple TV movies, and some guest shots.

ReplyDeleteDudes, READ the blind. Alliterative! Abe Vigoda, Matthew Perry, NOT ALLITERATIVE!
ReplyDeleteYes Sara that show moved him into movies. And it made him a star, bigger than Peter Strauss who was the star of RMPM.
ReplyDeleteNo, not hospital pants. Nolte was wearing summer linen. Walk around Paris and you'll see the stylish men wearing linen shirts and pants. Very elegant.
ReplyDeleteMichael Douglas
ReplyDeleteReally, even when americans *try* to dress chic we get accused of wearing hospital pants.
ReplyDeleteNick Nolte would fit.
ReplyDeleteChevy Chase was pretty out of it at the US Open the other day. I thought it was old age early onset dementia type thing, but it very well might have been pills and wine upon further review.
ReplyDeleteAny one else watch that painful to watch interview?
Nick Nolte definitely A List in his prime. After RMPM he made "The Deep" and a bunch of other movies. Not sure I can recall him ever being in a blockbuster that didn't hinge on Eddie Murphy, but that was quite some time ago. He was in a lot of good movies.
ReplyDeleteNolte admitted to trying heroin to play the addicted gambler in The Good Thief (great little film.) That's when the downward spiral started, I think.
ReplyDeleteWhy all the hate on hospital pants? I love hospital pants. I wish I had more but I don't really ever go to the hospital
ReplyDeleteNick Nolte. He is still wearing the shirt he had on when he took that infamous mugshot years ago.
ReplyDeleteSince rehab never seems to work for anybody,it doesn't make any difference whether you're young or old.
ReplyDeleteRehab is a myth, without scientific or medical basis. A junkie or a drunkard can abstain from drugs and booze if he has motivation and a strong will. But there's no cure for addiction
Hasselhoff
ReplyDeleteRehab isn't a myth. It does work, even if patients relapse and have to go back. It works best of patients move out to sober living facilities afterwards, which the pampered of Hollywood are less apt to embrace.
ReplyDeleteFORCED rehab almost never works, that is true.
Alan Alda
ReplyDeleteRehab is necessary because they have to be withdrawn off of booze or drugs with medical supervision. When someone goes "cold turkey" they could have a seizure.
ReplyDeleteHowever there is not a way to make someone want sober and clean living.
AA and other 12 step programs may be court ordered by they are programs of ATTRACTION not PROMOTION i.e. they know people won't try until they are sick and tired of being sick and tired.
But was Vince Vaughn or Chevy Chase wearing elegant linen trousers or grubby hospital pants? WE NEED TO KNOW ENTY.
