Alice In Chains Star Disgusted By VH1s Celeb Rehab
02/22/2010
.
As may know, former Alice in Chains bassist Mike Starr is part of the latest "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" on Vh1. Blabbermouth had a report last week with one of Starr's former AIC bandmate's take on the show. Here it is: Alice In Chains guitarist Jerry Cantrell slammed "Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew" in an interview with an Atlanta radio station.

Speaking about the show, Cantrell said, "That particular show, I think it's a real travesty and a shame to put people in a really vulnerable situation like that and make it entertainment for people to see . . . It's just kind of disgusting to me, actually. It's nothing I back. I totally back Mike, and I back his efforts to get clean and remain somebody that I and the band really care about — he's a friend of ours, you know, and we wish him the best. But that show's not really cool."

Referring to the drug-related death of original Alice In Chains singer Layne Staley in 2002, Cantrell also said, "Addiction is no joke, and we know that first hand. We lost a good friend of ours to that as well. Mike deserves a better life." - more on this story
