He hasn't appeared in a film or (non-reality) television show that anyone actually watched since at least 2009, but Andy Dick remains a tabloid A-lister thanks to his wildly WTF?! behavior.
Last time we checked in on the male equivalent of Courtney Love, Dick had impregnated Catherine Giudici of The Bachelor fame.
Just a few months prior to that shocking news, Dick was arrested for grand theft after stealing a man's necklace and then attempting to make a getaway on a bicycle.
After hearing about a stunt like that, we're not terribly surprised to learn that Dick has checked into rehab. We are surprised to learn that this is the thirteenth time that the comic has sought treatment for addiction issues.
Also unexpected? The trigger that sent Dick off on his latest bender:
“Andy has suffered with addiction problems for years and after losing Dancing With The Stars last year, he relapsed again, " an insider tells Radar Online.
“But he is committed to his recovery and chose to go to SOBA because of their holistic approach to alcoholism and addiction.”
Yes, Andy Dick lost on Dancing With the Stars and it kicked off a downward spiral that landed him in rehab.
Let that be a lesson to this year's contestants. We're watching you, Rumer Willis!
All kidding aside, though, it's good to hear that Dick is doing his best to get sober. We hear when he's off the wagon, he can act like a real - what's the word? - jerk!
