SEBASTIAN BACH: NOT THE SAME PERSON HE WAS IN 1996

Sebastian Bach may no longer be the blonde pretty boy lead singer of Skid Row, (he left the band in 1996) but he still draws a heavy metal crowd on his own (and he still has a full head of hair!) He’s currently on his Slave to the Grind anniversary tour and the question of reuniting with Skid Row continues to come up. Bach insists that the reunion SHOULD happen -for the fans. “We are still alive and in our 50’s!” His former Skid Row band-mates say he’s difficult to work with, but Bach retorts ”We haven’t been in the same room since 1996- they don’t even know me now!” Sebastian shrugs “There’s no reason NOT to reunite” – he’s open to the idea.

SKID ROW’S SEBASTIAN BACH IS NO LONGER A PRETTY BOY

Another heavy metal guy, Skid Row’s Sebastian Bach, went the opposite route from Dee Snider. He’s been married a few times and his current wife is Hawaiian Tropic bikini model Suzanne Le. She’s not only tiny, but obviously a LOT younger than Bach, 49. She never even saw Bach back in the 80’s when he was a notorious pretty boy. The couple impulsively got married in 2015 after only dating for two months. We can’t help but wonder what they have in common and what they talk about…

ZAC EFRON: WE KNOW WHAT YOU WERE DOING ON SKID ROW

You only have to hear the words “skid row” to know that Zac Efron is in deep, deep trouble. Imagine a good-looking, wealthy actor like Zac, having a fistfight with transients on the street! He’s following in the dismal footsteps of other former child actors with drug and alcohol problems- Brad Renfro, Nick Stahl, and Edward Furlong. All three of them were drawn the skid row for the worst reasons. Brad ended up overdosing and Nick and Edward are still struggling to stay alive, and their careers are in the dumpster. Hopefully, it’s not too late for Zac.

NICK STAHL IS BACK IN REHAB – AND THIS TIME HE SAYS HE MEANS IT

#nickstahl #janetcharlton

We’ve been wondering if missing actor Nick Stahl would turn up alive or dead. His estranged wife Rose reported him missing in May. He was last seen downtown on Skid Row. The 32 year old actor ended up checking into rehab for drug and alcohol addiction at that time and contacted his wife. Not long after, he abruptly disappeared from rehab and his wife panicked again. After another binge, he checked BACK into rehab and he and his wife are reconciled. This time he promised to stick it out and repair his shattered life. According to Michael’s House, some studies show that drug rehab can be successful even for those participants who have no desire to be there at first. He and Rose have a two year old daughter. Rose optimistically tweeted the “reconciliation” photo above.

KIM KARDASHIAN WANTS TO BE ANGELINA JOLIE

Kim Kardashian must REALLY be worried about her tarnished image because all she’s done lately is get herself photographed doing charity work. We imagine the Kim money-making machine must have stalled and her alarmed mother Kris arranged the volunteer events and photographers for Kim. First, Kim served food on skid row for Thanksgiving. Now it’s been reported that she actually went to Haiti, eyelashes and all, to raise awareness for Maria Bello’s charity to help Haitian women get medical care. Certainly the photos from Haiti will surface soon with Kim looking “concerned and helpful.” Sorry, Kim, your motivations are transparent, you’ll never have Angelina Jolie’s charitable reputation.

DREW BARRYMORE HAS A HALF BROTHER ON SKID ROW



Apparently Madonna isn’t the only celebrity with a brother on skid row.
Mike Walker in The Enquirer reports that Drew Barrymore has a half brother named John Barrymore III who is homeless in downtown Los Angeles. In fact, he’s walking around wearing a t-shirt that says “I’M DREW BARRYMORE’S BROTHER” and he can prove it. Poor Drew comes from a famous acting family that is plagued with alcoholism, drug addiction, and mental illness. Drew ended up supporting her own father John Barrymore Jr in his later derelict years but she’s not close to her older half brother, whose mother was actress Cara Williams.

MADONNA DIDN’T TURN HER BACK ON HER ALCOHOLIC BROTHER

Madonna’s alcoholic brother who is living on the streets in Michigan gave an interview to the Daily Mail that’s quite revealing. Madonna, who is said to have a fortune of 650 million dollars, has not forsaken him. Anthony Ciccone, 55, admits that his sister Madonna, 53, has many times offered to pay for him to go to rehab and in fact, she sent him to a Houston clinic for two months but it “didn’t help.” He doesn’t want to stop drinking and feels rehab is not ALWAYS the answer. His alcoholism got him fired from the family winery 18 months ago and he’s been living as a vagrant on skid row with the crackheads ever since. His hard life is revealed in the fact that he looks SO much older than his sister.

Sebastian Bach is still looking for attention. The onetime singer for the heavy metal hair band “Skid Row” is now 43 and divorced. In August, his New Jersey home, featured on “Cribs,” was destroyed by Hurricane Irene. He lost much of his band memorabilia. Bach moved to Los Angeles where he met his model girlfriend Minnie Gupta, 27. The happy couple visited Mr Bones’ Pumpkin Patch like many other celebrities who don’t mind being noticed.

Last January, Skid Row front man Sebastian Bach, 43, and his wife Maria Bierk announced they were ending their 18 year marriage after being separated for a number of months. They have three children – Paris, 21, London, 14, and Sebastiana, 2. Apparently they patched things up, after all. Sebastian and Maria were photographed leaving an LA club looking like newlyweds.
