I think they actually gain fans and those fans are mostly former addicts and 12-steppers themselves who feel kinship with these people and follow them on their websites and twitter. Some fans seem to get overly involved with these "celebrities" lives and worship Dr. Drew. I see it as exploitation of the celebs and fans.

Heidi Fleiss looks terrible, but she seem "real" if that makes any sense. What I kinda dont understand is the whole thing with Tom Sizemore? What is the purpose (besides the dramaticals) of bringing him into the same facility his former girlfriend???? Just icky IMO.

How many seizures have you witnessed? There are many different types of seizures so unless you're a doctor and personally examined the patient you can't say for certain what you saw on TV was real or fake.

Almost equally as bad as Heidi and Makenzie's looks are for women, I couldn't believe Jeff Conaway looks as bad as he does. Wow!

I do have to say though by going public with addiction issues you do make yourself more accountable. Keeping it secret is one of keeping your habit.

I don’t know how someone can be so starved for entertainment that they want to watch them do that.

I hardly ever watch anything VH1 puts out because the majority of it isnt very interesting. However, I am hooked on this show as well. Its very sad yet it sucks you in because of how much of a trainwreck these peopole have turned into. Especially the older crowd.

I hope these celebs use this opportunity to turn their lives around.
