Melanie Griffith enters rehab

Melaniegriffith_290 Melanie Griffith is getting help again.

The 52-year-old actress checked into the Cirque Lodge facility in Utah "to reinforce her commitment to stay healthy," her rep tells People, adding, "This is part of a routine plan that was designed between her and her doctors years ago."

It's Griffith's third visit to rehab in recent years. The actress, known for her breakout role in "Working Girl," has struggled with substance abuse problems -- particularly with cocaine, alcohol and pain medications -- for years.

Both husband Antonio Banderas (whose name she has tattooed on her arm) and ex-husband Don Johnson have supported her efforts to fight addiction.

Griffith can next be seen in an upcoming episode of "Nip/Tuck" playing Brandie Henry, the mother of ex-pornstar daughter Kimber (Kelly Carlson).

She's struggled with BOTOX abuse problems for years. Now look at her. Why do these actresses mess with their lips?

Nikki Cox now looks like a friggin blowfish, Meg Ryan is trashed, and Melanie? Poor Melanie...nuff said.

Maybe she finally looked in the mirror and realized how Fugly she has become. She is such a poor actress too, never amounted to much since she did that Working Girl movie (or whatever it was called). If the lips and face weren't bad enough the voice would drive a person to drink.

Nikki Cox, Priscilla Presley, Meg Ryan - their only claim to fame these days is keeping gossip mags and TMZ profitable

Just saw Daryl Hannah on TV this morning. Looks like more botox abuse.

I think Melanie's biggest worry is how to keep hot, younger hubby interested. Must be awful to feel it slipping away. Time is not on her side.

Who says hubby is slipping away? It takes support and courage to stay committed to sobriety- good for you Melanie

She seens to be having a crisis of reflection

Boy! has she ever gone to hell

Yeh WTF happened to her. No wonder you never see or hear about her anymore. Probably embarr***ed to leave the house looking like that.

What is it about Hollywood that makes everyone so stupid. She already has $$ so she doesn't need to go down on some casting Director to get a job

Another celeb in rehab, oh, no!

Wow, Melanie looks so OLD! Well, she is getting up there and her husband is younger. Look out mama, I'm coming for your husband, lol! Me and hundreds of other women who are younger and hotter than you!
