Celebrity Rehab Season 3: Where are they now? Heidi Fleiss, Mackenzie Phillips etc.

oh and forgot to add Rodman is now some weird Trump supporter who has some bizarre relationship with North Korea

Dr. Drew on why he ended the show.

last article on Heidi I could find

Just read through the Hollywood Reporter article, here are some tidbits

How are things with your ex-boyfriend Tom Sizemore, convicted of abusing you in 2003?

We had done those drug addiction shows together — Dr. Drew. Afterward we were friendly and he'd call me every now and then. He'd act like he had his stuff together. But it was all a lie. Everything is a lie. I brought him to a Humane Society event at Paramount Studios last year. He was just such a mess. So out of it. He stole money from my purse. He's such a drug addict because he's so afraid of being fat.

Fat?

Yes. He once did some movie with Will Smith, Enemy of the State, where he was, like, 280 pounds. I like a heavyset guy. But he is so afraid of being fat. That's what his addiction is about. It's all narcissism. It's gross. I guess after #MeToo, some reporters were calling me about Tom touching a prepubescent girl — like an 11‑year‑old little girl — inappropriately. I don’t know what to say. I don't know if that really happened. If it did, he should be castrated. That is so disgusting to me.

Did he ever show signs of that when you were together?

No. He liked horse porn, though. He did like horse porn. This one woman that would have sex with a horse on the internet, he told me that’s his favorite actress. "Better than Meryl Streep."

OP / r1 Are you watching this via streaming? If so, where? I would love to hate watch Dr. Drew, celebrity serial killer.

you can stream it on Amazon. Why was the 10 year old thread closed at under 300 posts in the OP's link? That is a GREAT link btw. Worth reading for the gossip

Thanks r6 As much as I want a good hate watch, I'm not going to pay that much. Amazon needs to up their free streaming content. Agree that old thread is a goldmine!

you don't have to pay r7, If you have VH1 as part of your basic cable (most do_) you can view the entire season online just by verifying your cable provider.

Thanks R8!!!!

reading through the old Celebrity Rehab thread in R1s post, it becomes clear that Heidi is the most interesting, Mackenzie a close second. The nastiest is clearly Tom

R4 "He liked horse porn, though. He did like horse porn. This one woman that would have sex with a horse on the internet, he told me that’s his favorite actress. "Better than Meryl Streep.""

Okay - that deserves a thread of it's own!!!

[quote] This one woman that would have sex with a horse on the internet, he told me that’s his favorite actress. "Better than Meryl Streep."

He's obviously never seen Meryl's horse porn.

When you can shock Heidi Fleiss with your depravity, shouldn't that get some kind of special award.

This is from a 2018 interview with Heidi:

"Fleiss says she was shocked by the violent porn she says Sizemore watched when they were together. “He would bring home these weird things. They were so degrading,” says Fleiss.

“No one will have more disgusting stories in Hollywood than him,” Fleiss added. “I have dealt with a lot of people doing a lot of different things. It’s different with Tom. He’s a whole other level.”

“I think more people will come forward for him than anyone else in Hollywood. He’s that disgusting,” says Fleiss. “But I thought he wasn’t famous enough and that’s why no one had said anything.”

Sent a link to my friend who went to Wayne State University with Sizemore circa 80-82. My friend was in the theater dept. He said I could quote him if I removed any identifying details.

"first thing you need to know about tom sizemore is that he would fuck literally anyone who would have him and could help him and that included men. He was having an affair with an older actor from NY who was guest lecturing at Wayne. Tom told me the guy fucked him every night they were together. The guy was an equity actor from NY and that was a big deal to all of us wannabees at Wayne State, most of us were from the Detroit area and didn't have much contact with professional actors. Tom was in some lanford wilson play that the guy was directing and according to tom, he made him (tom) into kind of a submissive sex slave Tom believed the guy could help him in NYC and so he was willing to do what he had to to" I'd say Sizemore was about 21 at that time ant the NY actor was about 35

"sizemore also had a male friend Ben who wrote and acted and a girlfriend, (who was a really good actress, Ann) They were always together, maybe a threeway relationship. Over time, I heard rumors of Sizemore being violent with girls but never saw anything myself. I did hear him shouting at her once over her looking at another guy"

"Sizemore was kind of a shitty actor, truth be told. He was obsessed with Robert DeNiro and everything he did was a pale, almost cartoonish impression of DeNiro. He did have an interesting "bad guy" look and he eventually learned to tone down the DeNero to a passable imitation and made it more his own" "He was one of the most jealous, narcissitic people I have ever met" I stayed in touch with him until right around the time he started getting small film roles and became the most insufferable asshole you could imagine"

The Celebrity Rehab series was such a guilty pleasure. Steven Adler Of Guns n Roses was a particular hoot.

Never seen Celeb Rehab, but re Heidi Fleiss, I've seen Hollywood Madam a few times and the one about her attempt open a male brothel for straight women in Parumph, NV (where that delusional idea must stem from all of the meth she's done). What makes them watchable is her charisma and the way she is so articulate, but what I tend to forget is that while she's on camera she's probably high most of the time.

Heidi is one of those California girls who grew up in the 70s and has probably been at least a little bit high most of her life. I agree she is very charismatic and very much a product of her time. LA doesn't have that kind of operator anymore. The people who currently operate on the fringes in Hollywood, serving the illegal or borderline needs of the famous and powerful now have none of the personality and flair Heidi did,. They all have a screenplay to push or a deal of some kind to get in the business or a job, they are too dumb/naive to realize that because they funnel drugs/men/women/contraband to the rich and powerful they are less not more able to advance into that circle of privilege. Heidi never wanted to be famous that way. She was her own thing and she was and is very loyal.

That asshole Sizemore will be more remembered forthe shitty stuff he did off screen rather than any of the shitty DeNiro/Pacino impersonations he did on screen. He not only burned bridges, he burned the people who built them.

The thread linked at op details some of his nastiness but no mention of hiring hookers with the express purpose of beating them up., like to within an inch of their lives. The guy is serious, serious bad news. Mediocre actor but first rate abuser of women. Heidi isn't telling everything, who knows why. I hope she finds a good life for herself.

Here is a 2014 doc on Heidi. This is a British documentary not the HBO film

Wow! I forgot that Season 5 had that beyond vile Kari Ann! I think she was truly one of the most horrible humans I have ever had the displeasure of watching-

best performance he's given

didn't know Sean Young had done Celebrity Rehab. She seems pretty self aware and intelligent. She was so beautiful and glamourous and headed for stardom but had some unfortunate publicity ( James Woods) Had a small role in "The Alienest" last year. Hope she finds her way.

Sean Young was surprisingly restrained during her season of CR. I think she was actually there for the paycheck and not the publicity.

Bai Ling, on the other hand...
