Leif Garrett Walks Out on 'Celebrity Rehab Revisited' (VIDEO)

by Catherine Lawson, posted Dec 12th 2011 8:30AM

Leif Garrett, 'Celebrity Rehab Revisited'Leif Garrett's been battling substance abuse problems for years, which is why he took part in Season 4 of 'Celebrity Rehab.' However, he stormed out of the Pasadena Recovey Center, later telling 'The Los Angeles' Times that producers encouraged him to relapse for dramatic purposes.

Last night Bob Forrest and Rachel Uchitel checked up on Garrett as part of 'Celebrity Rehab Revisited' (Sun., 9PM ET on VH1) and things did not go too well. Garret told the pair that he'd been taking lots of painkillers following a serious motorcycle accident, and then he admitted dabbling in marijuana and booze.

That's when Bob criticized Garrett's "cavalier and laissez-faire attitude toward alcohol," which did not sit well with the former teen idol. Saying "I really do not appreciate it," Garrett walked out. Again.

I don't like Leif's relapse, but man, that is one mad-ass cane.

If he doesn't want to get sober, so be it. He'll end up like Jeff Conaway, Mike Starr and so many others. You first have to admit that you have a problem and then be sincere about getting help. He never did any of those things. His appearances on Behind the Music and Celebrity Rehab are just his managements's last ditch effort to keep his name in the forefront. He is what he is: a washed up teen idol with a substance abuse problem - what a waste!

That is too bad, he will never get well. He has been a druggie since I was a kid.

I wonder if Howard Stern has him in his Death Pool?

These celebs and reality stars get paid $250,000 aseason to be on Celebrity Rehab. Tiger Woods mistress Racheal Ucitel would only do the show for $500,000.Look it up.Dr. Drew is an enabler to allow VH1 to pay down on their luck addicts that much.

This is at least the third time Leif Garrett has been on Celebrity Rehab. Are these wanna-be's so desperate at being on camera, they will stoop to any level to get their 15 minutes ???
