Rehab is the new Hyde. (Actually, I think Winston’s is the new Hyde, so maybe rehab is the new Winston’s? It’s hard to do this when the hot club changes every month.) The latest “celeb” to check in to a facility is The Hills‘ Jason Wahler, who’s really had quite a run this year. LC’s ex was sentenced to rehab instead of jail for his September 2006 arrest (that’s the one where he was in a physical altercation with a tow-truck driver). However, he still faces possible jail time for his April arrest in Seattle (that’s the one where he punched some dude in the lobby of his hotel).
“He’s doing well, and he’s going to be a new man,” says a relative. While I certainly wish him the best, I’ll believe this “success story” when he goes six months without another arrest (Jason has been arrested four times in the past year).
