People don't get fired for being on drugs or even Drunk in the real world so why should celebs if they seek treatment.
To reiterate a point made earlier , he did not hurt anyone but himself.There are millions of people who work and have
drug or alcohol problems.They just don't admit it for fear that people will alienate them and thus they never get help and put you me and the rest of the public in danger.
People just tend to get pissed because of the recognition and big paychecks that celebs get.

Absolutely
CKWON people out there get fired from jobs for having a substance abuse policy. For many of the jobs out there now you have to be drug tested.
Your point about Perry and company harming only themselves could easily fill a thread with discussion.
Whats being looked at here is how some well known individuals are treated with golden gloves while some poor dude is going to have his ass be freshmeat for big Leroy in the joint. And no Leroy don't like lube either. :Q
heh it seems like some stars admit a substance abuse problem to seek publicity and gather sympathy. Its almost tearjerking how they are bravely coping with their problems and seeking help by going to the Betty Ford clinic to clean up.
