'Celebrity Rehab': Rapper Bizzy Bone joins Dr. Drew Pinsky's show

bizzy-bone.jpgIt was looking for awhile like "Celebrity Rehab" would be no more because no celebrities would agree to go on the show. But they are slowly signing on and now it seems Bone Thugs-n-Harmony rapper Bizzy Bone can be added to the list.

TMZ is reporting that Bizzy -- real name Bryon McCane -- has agreed to join Dr. Drew Pinsky's VH1 show to help with his addiction to marijuana and alcohol.

Other celebrities who have signed on include hot mess Tila Tequila (who apparently snorts Ambien and Twitters all day long) and possibly "Laguna Beach" star Jason Wahler. And let's just say what we're all thinking -- getting Lindsay Lohan would be not only most likely incredibly helpful for the troubled starlet but also a ratings boon. Get Lindsay, Dr. Drew!

The fourth season of "Celebrity Rehab" is slated to film later this year, but won't happen at all if Dr. Drew doesn't round up a full cast soon.

Wow. I used to think this guy was so good looking back in the 90's. Not anymore.

Really hope the cast comes through so we can have another season! This show is my weakness, and so is Bizzy Bone. Yeah, I said it.

My 10-year analysis on Bizzy's situation is this: his problems stem from a combination of:

1. Childhood trauma (kidnapping, molestation)

2. Repressed sexuality (bi/homosexuality conflicting with "thug" image and religious beliefs.)

3. Abuse of hard drugs, like meth, coke and pills of all kinds. And shittons of alcohol.

4. Record industry drama (getting ripped off and having record execs trying to poison his relationship with the group.)

5. Underlying mental health problems, such as bipolar disorder.

By the way, people who hate on Bizzy or don't watch the show should keep their mouths firmly shut.

Rxhab: You forgot to mention he's been having kids since he was a kid and has so many kids that get all of his money too.

I know Bizzy, AND I COMPLETELY SUPPORT HIS DECISION TO TAKE ON THIS CHALLENGE !! I WISH HIM ALL THE LUCK AND LOVE IN THE WORLD !! I WISH HIM STRENGH AND PRAYERS FOR SUCCESS !!

I JUST GOT A MSG FROM BIZZY ON FB. HE'S NOT DOING CELEB REHAB AFTERALL. THEY DIDN'T FEEL HIS ADDICTION WAS BAD ENOUGH TO ADMIT HIM INTO THE REHAB PROGRAM.
