Richie Sambora is on the way to rehab while in the middle of a tour with Bon Jovi for help with his exhaustion and after falling off the bandwagon with his sobriety and since Denise Richards was spotted posing in a bikini, I figured why not throw them in the same post?
This isn’t the first time he has been in rehab, he spent a month at the Cirque Lodge in Utah back in 2007 – around the time that he broke up Denise’s friendship with Heather Locklear because he was banging both of them. A source talks to Radar Online about his latest rehab adventures:
”Richie recently has been drinking too much, and wants to get his life together. Richie has had a busy year. I think this was a culmination of all the things that overloaded his life and finally he realized he needed to take care of himself.”
This is while Bon Jovi is set to play more tour dates in the U.S. before moving onto to Europe in June. It’s not known how this will affect the tour yet. While I’m sure your so concerned about Richie, why not enjoy these photos of Denise in her bikini. She’s still got it in my opinion.
“Celebrity Rehab” is getting both presumptuous and audacious by trying to sign some big name celebrities.
Sources stated that the casting department has set its sights on Lindsay Lohan, Heather Locklear, Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller. Surprise … none of them have signed up.
As for Lindsay, we’re told the show recently offered her $1 million to appear on “Celeb Rehab” as well as “Sober House” and a third possible spin-off. Show sources say they were told Lindsay had no interest, partly because she doesn’t think she has a problem and partly because she wants nothing to do with Dr. Drew.
Show sources say they were shut down with Heather Locklear as well — again, the show sources say they were told Heather doesn’t have a problem.
And, the sources say they were shut down by Brooke Mueller. Undaunted, they say they’re now going after Charlie Sheen — perhaps hoping he’ll have time on his hands if he doesn’t re-sign with “Two and a Half Men.”
And the casting crew was shut down quickly by Jenna Jameson.
They better pull a rabbit out of a hat, because filming starts May 10.
It’s more like Celebrity Intervention. Only one thing could make this mix better… add Tila Tequila.

Heather Locklear was arrested for hit-and-run last Saturday.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ at around 4 AM, someone heard a crash near North Ranch Country Club in Westlake Village, CA.
The person who heard the crash didn’t call the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department until 7:48 PM that night. Deputies went out to the area and found a knocked over “no parking” sign and obvious signs of a car that went up the curb, striking the sign.
Deputies confirmed through investigation that the car in question was Locklear’s black BMW. The collision was very close to Locklear’s home.
Deputies then went to Locklear’s home, saw damage to the BMW that was consistent with the collision, and arrested her for hit-and-run.
The offense is a misdemeanor, so Locklear was not taken into custody — just cited and released. An official from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department tells TMZ a hit-and-run citation constitutes an “arrest.”
Back in 2008, Locklear was arrested in Santa Barbara for allegedly driving under the influence of prescription medications.
She ended up pleading no contest to a misdemeanor charge of reckless driving and was placed on three years informal probation. A Santa Barbara prosecutor tells us he’s looking into the latest incident, which could be a probation violation.
Just when you thought things were looking up for her, eh?

Last week we got the nominations for the 2009 Emmy Awards, but now we get an even better list – the 25 biggest Emmy snubs ever.
25. SPORTS NIGHT
Aaron Sorkin’s dramedy about a struggling cable sports program had it all: a swoon-inducing central romance (between Peter Krause’s sly anchor and Felicity Huffman’s brainy producer); a stunning supporting cast (including the awesome Robert Guillaume); and lightning-quick dialogue that ranged from heartbreaking to hilarious. And funny enough, we reacted to Sports Night’s lack of Emmy recognition much the same way we would to a typical episode — by laughing out loud and reaching for the Kleenex.
24. WALTON GOGGINS The Shield
Michael Chiklis garnered most of the award attention for his bulldog-on-steroids performance as Vic Mackey, the head of a stop-at-nothing L.A. police squad. But as his onetime right-hand man and best friend Shane Vendrell, Goggins also proved he’s an acting force to be reckoned with. A loose cannon whose messes kept getting bigger and stickier and more dangerous each season, Shane spun out of control in season 6, playing all sides against each other and becoming hell-bent on self-destruction after dropping a hand grenade in the lap of his squad mate at the end of season 5.
23. MY SO-CALLED LIFE
Okay, so it only lasted one season. And while ”the Academy” didn’t know it then, this critically acclaimed ratings bust has since become one of the most beloved cult-classics to ever hit the tube. It not only captured teen angst in a way few have been able to replicate, but it also showed the softer side of trying to figure out who you are. Although I may never forgive Claire Danes (she admitted to EW in 2004 that she had a hand in the show not returning for a second season) at least they didn’t go with their first rumored pick — Alicia Silverstone. Cher pining over brooding Jordan Catalano? Whatever!
22. SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Can you believe it!? I guess it’s not too surprising that SMG was never nominated. The closest this classic ever got to a major nomination was a writing nod for the genius Joss Whedon (and the poor guy didn’t even win). But if there was one person that deserved that little golden angel it was Gellar (duh), who played Buffy Summers as a high school girl all high school kids could relate to. Sure, the goths may have claimed her, but Buffy blurred the lines of cliques and social circles and played into a fantasy any high schooler would envy: superpowers + important mission in life.
21. HOMICIDE: LIFE ON THE STREET
When it premiered in January 1993, Homicide was a meticulously bleak show — morose, cynical, and allusive in a way nothing else on prime time was even trying to be. Critical raves poured in for these tales of the Baltimore homicide division; viewers, correctly suspecting a downer, stayed away in droves. Sadly, the Academy didn’t bestow the Best Dramatic Series love either. And that’s a crime.
20. AN AMERICAN FAMILY
Twelve episodes. One family. A 20-year-old gay man. And more than 10 million viewers. Long before The Real World, The Osbournes, and Wife Swap, filmmakers Susan and Alan Raymond gave America a peek inside the lives of a normal clan, the Louds, in An American Family. PBS’ documentary series was so ahead of its time that no Emmy category existed in 1973 to accommodate it. (Sure, it might have qualified for Outstanding Documentary, but that category was filled with news-division shows on such topics as Watergate.) Among the first ”ordinary people” to become ”celebrities,” the Loud family appeared on the cover of Newsweek and son Lance became something of a gay icon. Little did they know what they had wrought.
19. KATEY SAGAL Married…With Children
With a cigarette dangling from one hand and the remote control from the other, Sagal’s sex-obsessed Peggy ruled the suburban middle-class wasteland that was the Bundy household. It was the actress’ own idea to outfit her character in ’60s- and ’70s-style TV-housewife garb — a hilarious move, as it further highlighted the divide between those women’s devotion to homemaking and Peg’s refusal to ever lift a fake nail…unless it was to eat a bonbon.
18. RON HOWARD The Andy Griffith Show and Happy Days
Don’t you wish there was a ”Best Narration” category? Because Ron Howard would’ve cleaned up for Arrested Development. Sticking to his on-screen appearances, the Academy dissed Howard in his six seasons as Howdy Doody look-alike Richie Cunningham on Happy Days. But how could little Ronny not have scored a nod for the episode ”Opie the Birdman” from The Andy Griffith Show? Not many child stars can communicate a dawning youngster’s awareness of the value of life, the importance of parenting, and the pain of separation as he did in this episode, a performance mature in its innocence.
17. AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL
Just how crazy a weave must Tyra don before Emmy takes notice of ANTM? The supermodel’s modeling competition may not score the ratings of some other reality juggernauts, but when it comes to entertainment value, the show never disappoints (see: every cycle’s makeover episode). And unlike some other reality shows, ANTM actually does produce some success stories (e.g. Eva Pigford, Danielle Evans, Adrianne Curry…kinda). C’mon Emmy, you know that ANTM deserves to still be in the running to become Best. Reality. Competition. Show.
16. KRISTIN DAVIS Sex and the City
From home, we all followed Kristin Davis’ Park Avenue princess Charlotte York as she went through the same big-girl realizations as the rest of us. Discarding Prince Charming fantasies and big-city illusions, Charlotte developed throughout the series into the sweet but strong woman we later saw on the big screen
15. BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
The most likely reason Ronald D. Moore’s magnum opus hasn’t been nominated is that it’s ”too genre,” which is ironic given that Battlestar Galactica is a self-conscious break from the genre conventions that have clogged much of TV sci-fi (I’m looking at you, Star Trek: Enterprise). BSG is great drama that just happens to be set in a sci-fi context.
14. CHLOË SEVIGNY Big Love
While it’s slightly shocking to see indie fashionista Chloë Sevigny so comfortable in the conservative skin of Mormon Nicki on HBO’s Big Love, the actress’ portrayal of the second wife is believable far beyond her single braid/turtleneck/long skirt ensembles. She gives an honest glimpse into the struggles facing a fundamentalist polygamist gal trying to survive in a world where her belief system is illegal.
13. DESI ARNAZ I Love Lucy
Sure, we all know that the real star of I Love Lucy was comedy legend Lucille Ball, but Lucy wouldn’t have been half as funny without her heavy-accented, bongo-banging, disciplinarian foil/husband Ricky Ricardo, played by real-life spouse Arnaz. In fact, out of the show’s four regular cast members — Ball, Arnaz, William Frawley, and Vivian Vance — Arnaz was the only one never recognized during its six-year run. Emmy, you got some ‘splainin’ to do.
12. CONNIE BRITTON AND KYLE CHANDLER Friday Night Lights
Eric and Tami Taylor, TV’s most realistic couple (and yes, that includes reality shows), are just too divine. Why? They — he, the obsessive coach; she, the doting mom and school counselor — are believable: They fight, make up, talk, parent, and work together with the harmony and grace of a pair that’s been together in real life for years.
11. THE WIRE
We can almost convince ourselves that there were too many fantastic actors on David Simon’s Baltimore threnody for Emmy to get around to them all (though how one overlooks Dominic West or Michael K. Williams, we’ll never know). But that a series routinely hailed as one of the best shows ever on television — if not the best — never even garnered a dramatic series nod? Shameful.
10. COURTENEY COX Friends
How was Cox — who aced her half of the Chandler-Monica affair — the only Friend ignored?
9. BOB NEWHART The Bob Newhart Show
Three noms for Newhart’s next sitcom didn’t make up for earlier snubs.
8. HEATHER LOCKLEAR Melrose Place
Her hilariously bitchy stroll on Melrose turned a snooze into a must-watch.
7. NORMAN FELL
Three’s Company
The only thing lovable about wife-hating homophobe Mr. Roper? Fell’s perfect timing.
6. MICHAEL LANDON
Ignoring the beloved star for his two seminal series, Bonanza and Little House on the Prairie, is like never sending your dad a Father’s Day card.
5. THE HONEYMOONERS
One of the best sitcoms on TV, and prototype for the rest of the best. Pity Emmy voters never noticed.
4. LAUREN GRAHAM Gilmore Girls
Put those hyperliterate scripts in a lesser actress’ hands — see what hash they make of them.
3. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER
Believe it or not, kids, before Lost, Emmy didn’t always understand shows with fanciful premises.
2. ANDY GRIFFITH
The Andy Griffith Show
Don Knotts nabbed four trophies, but not one nod for the sheriff? A crime!
1. ROSEANNE
Emmy loved the sitcom’s actors but never acknowledged the show or its writers. So the stars did an amazing job saying…nothing worthwhile?
I think this is one of the few lists that I agree with everything on it, yes including America’s Next Top Model. I am a huge fan of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and always thought it was robbed every year.
The 47-year-old was arrested on September 27 in Santa Barbara after a witness – that turned out to be a paparazzo- called 911 because she was driving erratically.
Locklear was then booked on charges for driving under the influence of drugs and being under the influence of a controlled substance, the second charge was later dropped.
The misdemeanor charge that was filed by the district attorney’s office on Monday specifies that the drugs in question were “prescription medications.”
The arraignment is scheduled for January 26, if convicted she faces anything from a fine to six months in jail, or like most other celebrities will get off with nothing but a tap on the wrist.
Jill Ishkanian, the paparazzo that called 911 took the photos has not been found of any criminal wrongdoing, despite selling the photographs she took.
I’m sure that with her trip to rehab and now this, Denise Richards is loving life right about now.
“Heather has been dealing with anxiety and depression. She requested an in-depth evaluation of her medication and entered into a medical facility for proper diagnosis and treatment.”
I love Heather Locklear and her crazy drunken ass. This is a good day. What would life be without her hot mess throwing up gang signs and informing the world she doesn’t mind the stinky pinky.
I have no idea what the other signs mean. Perhaps it has something to do with being apart of the Happy Hands Club and this is her interpretation of Tone Loc’s Funky Cold Medina.

Sambora was arrested yesterday after having one too many drinks and trying to drive his drunken carcass around Laguna Beach.
The Bon Jovi guitar player was driving his black Hummer like a bat out of hell around 11 p.m. on Tuesday night. Officers pulled him over and gave Richie several field sobriety tests. After failing miserably, police booked him for a DUI. Like an idiot, he opted to take a blood test over the breathalyzer. He was then released around 4 a.m. one Wednesday.
How is that this drunken prune managed to bed Denise Richards and Heather Locklear? The man has been in and out of rehab twice and still has the same haircut he had back when men with feathered hair was hot. Now he is endangering the lives of others to drive around inebriated.
Maybe he was looking for the cast of “The Hills.â€
UPDATE: Sambora had an unknown female passenger at the time of his arrest. Word has it that the passenger was his 10 year old daughter Ava. What an asshat.
For David Spade, art is imitating life: The funny guy admitted Wednesday night that, yes, he dated Heather Locklear – and their sitcom relationship will be somewhat similar.
“You gonna go there already?” he mock-squirmed as David Letterman locked and loaded his first Locklear question on CBS’s Late Show. “Did you actually ever date her?” Letterman probed. “And you know what I mean by date…”
As Paul Shaffer egged him on from the bandstand, Spade, 43, conceded, “We did date there for a while. Gorgeous girl. She was great. We’re friends and now she’s on the show,” he explained about Locklear’s upcoming part on his CBS sitcom Rules of Engagement.
“She plays a girl that dates me that everyone says she shouldn’t be dating,” Spade laughed. “It’s like even on my show that’s the angle.”
Of course, Locklear has since moved on and is now dating her former Melrose Place costar, Jack Wagner.
Heather Mills is reportedly in the US to meet with producers about turning her life story into a feature film. She’s also already thinking that Reese Witherspoon can play her in the movie.
Heather Mills has flown to the US to plan a Hollywood film about her life – and she wants Oscar-winner Reese Witherspoon to take the starring role.
She is keen to get Reese Witherspoon, 31, who won a best actress Oscar last year for her portrayal of June Carter Cash in Walk the Line, to play her.
A well-placed source told the Mail: “Heather has been working for some time on the biopic. Of course it had all been shelved while she thought they were heading for a settlement.
“But the script was dusted off pretty rapidly over the weekend. She had wanted Heather Locklear to play her. She now feels someone with slightly more credibility like Reese Witherspoon should play her. Heather wants an unknown to play Paul.
What other’s said:
Dlisted says, “Gold Digger: The Movie — I’m pretty sure nobody gives a f#ck about seeing Heather’s life on the big screen.”
