Monday Bits and Bites – the Steve-O edition

if you’ve ever read my other site, Cheaper Than Therapy, then you might be aware of my fascination with Johnny Knoxville and Bam Margera and the rest of the Jackass crew (well, maybe not Preston Lacy) yes, i dream about them. yes, those kind of dreams. i love those crazy dudes.**

Recently, i wrote about Steve-O’s cocaine possession and 72-hour psychiatric hospital hold. he has decided to extend it to try to get better. He came clean on his myspace site about his life-long history with alcohol. He writes "I know I
was always powerless over alcoholism, because it had such a grip on
Mom’s adulthood and my childhood, and I never chose to fight it." He tells stories of his parents giving him alcohol to make him stop crying on airplanes, and of his mother’s biggest lie – faking lymph-node cancer so she could stay in bed drunk.

I hope Steve-O gets the help he needs, and doesn’t race out of the facility ala Britney and other celebs.

**what about you? any strange celebrity crushes that people might be surprised about?
