We were really disappointed to learn that Heidi Fleiss has backed out of appearing on Celebrity Rehab - and at the last minute. She would have been fun to watch. Rod Stewart's problematic son Sean Stewart signed up for the treatment - we're betting daddy cut him off and he needs money. And weepy, whiney, Jeff Conaway is COMING BACK. He seems doomed to repeat all his mistakes. Another interesting patient will be Rodney King, the lovely man whose arrest started the 1992 racial riots in LA. Sexy video vixen Tawny Kitaen is best known for being arrested for battering her exhusband Chuck Finley with her high heel boots. To top it off, crazy, born again Gary Busey will be a drug counselor! (We KNOW he needs the money) Can you IMAGINE taking advice from Gary? Dr Drew Pinsky (shown above with last year's grads) is in for a WILD RIDE. The show will air in October.

This dog is the reason Tatum O'Neal gives for going crack shopping. Her 16 year old beloved Scottish Terrier Lena (shown above in 2006) was sick with cancer and Tatum and her daughter had to have their dog put down. Devastation over the loss drove Tatum to seek solace in the streets. Are we the only ones who completely BELIEVE this excuse? We feel for her. What could be more agonizing? Give Tatum a break. And sign her up for Celebrity Rehab.
Camp Freddy at the Roxy was rockin' Saturday night like it was 1985, thanks to Billy Idol. And like yesteryear, Billy was LOADED. According to an observer, Billy was walking unsteadily, his eyes were half shut, and he was slurring his words. At one point he failed to recognize an old friend he had known for years. And this was BEFORE he performed! Surprisingly, once Billy hit the stage in his leather pants he put on a great show. "He sang four or five of his hits like "Rebel Yell" and "White Wedding" and sounded GREAT!" At one point he narrowly missed falling off the stage, but he had the audience on their feet screaming." Billy's son Willem used to follow him to gigs to make sure he didn't overindulge, but Willem is 20 now and playing in his own band. Maybe Billy should check into Celebrity Rehab.

Heidi Fleiss was seen dashing into the Four Seasons Hotel with this unknown guy. She is making things happen for herself. The good news is that Heidi is committed to appear on the next Celebrity Rehab with Dr Drew. The bad news is that her violent and temperamental boyfriend (yes, the one with the fake penis for drug testing) Tom Sizemore, has turned the show DOWN! Imagine how much fun it would have been with both of them on camera!
This just in: Heidi's companion has been identified as artist Sham Ibrahim, who has been working on the HBO World of Wonder documentary about Heidi, ironically titled "Heidi Fleiss: The Would-Be Madam of Crystal." It's about her ill-fated attempt to open a brothel in Nevada.

Here's another tough guy with his baby in Beverly Hills: Daniel Baldwin and his daughter Avis (Yes, that's her name.) He left Celebrity Rehab in such a hurry - it seems he found himself "flirting" with Mary Carey. Does anyone know more about his sudden departure?
