News Flash: Celebrity Rehab is Getting Fuzzy





Aerosmith rockerwants the world to know that when he checked into a rehab facility recently it wasn't for all of the obvious reasons. He has a bad foot and the pain has been traumatic. He is not the first to set the record straight about rehab. We heard earlier this week that's stint in rehab was not about substance abuse but was depression related.

Tyler said:



The doctors told me the pain in my feet could be corrected but it would require a few surgeries over time. The 'foot repair' pain was intense, greater than I'd anticipated. The months of rehabilitative care and the painful strain of physical therapy were traumatic. I really needed a safe environment to recuperate where I could shut off my phone and get back on my feet. Make no mistake, Aerosmith has no plans to stop rocking. There's a new album to record, then another tour."

The statement follows reports that the 60-year-old singer was being treated instead for substance abuse . Some may question when rehab facilities began broadening their scope and others might even wonder if these celebrities are in denial about substance abuse issues.
