Dear Celebrity Rehab;…..

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Please look up the word “celebrity” in the dictionary and cast accordingly.Otherwise, may I suggest changing the name of your show to “Has-been rehab”?

The residents currently occupying your rehab facility are no longer celebrated for anything, so far as I can tell. I have either never hear of them, or heard of them 20 years ago when I was 9, and didn’t care about them then either.

I would also like to comment on having these people on T.V at all. It is my opinion that someone who used to be famous who then turned to drugs or alcohol, either because they couldn’t cope with their fame or because they had some other bull-shit problem they couldn’t deal with on their own, should not be granted the privilege of being on television. They chose to screw up their lives and throw away their money by turning to drugs and alcohol rather than using their millions, which the rest of us will never have, to seek the professional help you are offering them on your show. So screw them. Seriously, let them rot.

I understand that these people are perhaps the only people you can get to be on the show, seeing how an actual current celebrity would never stoop to showcasing their crackie ways on television. However, I think that if you were to implement an incentive program, perhaps you will get some takers. Things like free designer shoes, plastic surgery and instruments. To replace the ones they sold off buying crack.

Thank you for your attention;
Sylvia
