dr. drew, wth?

so, dr. drew decides to have a chat with heidi about how tom's derailing her recovery. oh, i'm sorry, IF tom's derailing her recovery (eyeroll).

so, heidi tries to say that seeing tom was... well, not so good... but, that's her past, he beat her up and she cannot go back to that. so, unaware that TOM SIZEMORE IS THE BIGGEST STAR EVAH, i'm figuring heidi's given the right answer.

even if to hadn't beaten heidi in the past, currently he is showing no real progress on beating this meth addiction. he is someone heidi has done drugs with in the past, so if they spent much time together, they'd probably fall into all of their old habits and then some.

the odd thing is, dr. drew seems to be encouraging heidi to be nostalgic for her relationship (i think he said love and friendship) with tom. he also seems to want to steer this conversation that's supposed to be about her into it being all about poor old (biggest star ever) tom. I don't get it...

sure, heidi needs to befriend someone other than her parrots. but, there are many people in the world other than tom sizemore. heck, there are better choices among the rehabbers... so, why tom?

meanwhile, tom works on more of jeff conaway's old (annoying) material. even to having his girlfriend arrive and tom suddenly declare they were leaving. since tom is a better actor than jeff, he caught dr. drew totally by surprise.

meanwhile, i'm wondering about tom and monroe. dr. drew talking about thwarting her "mission" when she came by at midnight to "visit" tom (they asked for a pee test, she refused). er... why would anyone be getting midnight visitors? aren't they supposed to be asleep then? posted visitor's hours?

I dunno... it was a weird episode.

kari anne, cigarette conneseuir

I didn't see much of celebrity rehab, but I did see the final act (i'm sure this was a whole episode "storyline") of the great cigarette tantrum of 2009/2010.

mackenzie took offense on behalf of the staff that kari anne called them "idiots" for not being able to get her favorite brand in the regular length, hard pack. which they did eventually do and she did refuse to believe it until forced to look at them. goofball.

having worked smoker's checkout, I can say all of us non-smokers are lacking some savvy when it comes to smokers' exacting standards. because we have the idea that one over-priced cancer stick is as good as another.

and then there's kari anne's personality... yep, she's a charmer. i'm surprised someone didn't drive a pack in from north carolina for that sweet girl. (I didn't see what brand she likes so i'm playing the odds.)

but, all this is a distraction to what i'm really wondering.. HOW THE FUCK did this dead average, prematurely dried up junior harpy become miss teen usa? come on, that's not even slightly believable.

hilariously, dennis rodman was indicating non-verbally (more of his hand motions) that he'd heard enough nonsense. if this is how kari anne is doing with zen dennis (haha), she's going to be annoying.

perhaps realizing kari's camerawhore ways were going to cut into his starring role, tom sizemore drama'd off. I bet anything, he found out his lady friend wasn't going to be sharing a room with him.

no tom, your roomie's name is on the plaque by the door. well, unless tom makes good on his threat to jeff conaway on out of there.

heidi fleiss, quietly detoxing

I have to admit, heidi has become one of my favorite celebrity rehabbers. I don't know if she's got a chance of getting sober, but I hope so.

now, I think if you just have stupid emo drama going on... heidi's just going to laugh. but then again, she might make you laugh as well. but, if you have dire life or death stuff going on, she's not afraid to help you out.

when mindy had her seizure, heidi ran into the room when everyone else was running out. if will hadn't trotted in, I think she was prepared to try to help mindy.

then there are the parrots... now, unlike a lot of people at c.r., I think heidi is a parrot person. I don't know that anyone wants to suddenly get as many as she did, but the ideal situation wouldn't be to get rid of them (she likes them, i'm not a parrot person so I wouldn't... but she does). it would be for someone to help her with them. if she gets off drugs, maybe she will make a few friends that can help her out.

then, there was the sweet way she helped tom out... which he really appreciated. probably tom loves heidi, but tom has a long way to go before he could be serious with anyone. let alone heidi given their history.

so, I wonder... wtf happened to put heidi into the positions she's been in? I don't think we're ever going to hear her story except a sentence here or there. like when she was talking about the women who "trained" her.

unlike most everyone there, heidi doesn't have to have all the attention. when it's her turn, she's not shy. but, she doesn't have the need to be SEEN (always!) that some others do.

good luck, heidi. :)
