Steven Tyler Admits Rehab Was For Drugs
I don't want to say "I told you so" to all my dear Blabber-ers who insisted I was the devil for insinuating that Steven Tyler was not just in rehab for foot surgery, like he said -- but I have to.
The Aerosmith frontman is now admitting that it wasn't exactly his foot that caused him to hang out in a rehab facility -- it was his addiction to the drugs that he was put on to stop the pain from the foot surgery.
"To have your feet done, to have your leg done, you have to be on narcotics," Steve told the Associated Press on Friday. "You have to be on sleep aids at night. I don't know about Joe [Perry], but I was off and running and I didn't like the me that was me."
The singer, who had been through drug rehab before in 1986, recognized the downward spiral and took action. "This was a month ago," he said Friday, "so I just put the brakes on and checked into detox and just pulled the plug on all of it."
Props to Steve for taking care of business, but that foot surgery excuse sucked big time.

He is not a good ~~~~~~~~~. He is busy with his online dating thing, His profile was seen at dating site "W e a l t h y l o v I n g . c o m" yesterday. A rumor goes that he is dating a young single woman on that site.
We were right Tracy! If I remember correctly one poster was quite adamant it was just for his foot and asked us to give him the benefit of the doubt. He didn't have to lie about it, we all love him anyway. I'm glad he recognized what was gonna happen and took care of it. Kudos!
