Gerard Butler Says He Did Not Go To Rehab For Booze

In a new interview, Gerard Butler says that he wants to make it clear that he did not go to rehab for booze and that he has not had a drink in 15 years. He says that when people say he went for drinking that it makes him really angry. He then gets really coy in Men's Journal about why he did go to rehab. He says that he was taking a minimal amount of pills and that he went for pain management after his surfing accident. So, basically he had a prescription pill addiction and couldn't shake it and needed to learn how to deal with pain and kick the pills at the same time. He is so clear about the booze thing but so quiet about the pill thing. It is almost like it was written for Kneepads except they would have just ignored the booze thing completely.

Del Riser said...: Gerard coy? Hard to imagine.; 10:46 AM
Viking Girl said...: It was cocaine, Gerry, just admit it, no one cares. It makes you the same as everyone else in Hollywood. Instead you deny, deny, deny... which makes you the same as everyone else in Hollywood. Heh. Boring.; 10:51 AM

Hammer_Girl said...: *sigh* he was my go to crush for years. Even when he was soft around the middle pre-300. That was until he quit bathing and started banging random chicks in porta potties.; 11:28 AM
yodelay said...: I thought tons of coke and banging random chicks the reasons guys want to be famous in the first place?; 11:34 AM
g.strathmore said...: @auntliddy, LOL!; 11:36 AM
crila16 said...: Did he go to rehab for his sex and perversion addiction????; 11:44 AM
timebob said...: He has to be able to get insured for movies it isn't in his best intrest to scream what a raging pill head and coke head he is to the media. I also believe he hasn't had a drink in 15 years. When he was on Howard Stern promoting Machine Gun Preacher he was very clear about not drinking after his dad died.

He seemed to be as honest as he could be about it.; 11:52 AM
Anonymous said...: He went to sex rehab. Obvi; 12:15 PM
Geebz said...: He sure had a drink or two in Half Moon Bay when doing Chasing Mavericks. Have a few pics to prove it but my peeps are in them and I can't expose them like that w/out permission.
Is having beer considered drinking?; 12:33 PM
ReacherB said...: HEY GUYS IS IT JUST ME, OR DOES IT SEEM LIKE CDAN IS CHOCK FULL OF SPAM AND RE-LOADING THESE DAYS, IT TAKES FOREVER FOR MY PAGE TO REFRESH, AND IT'S DRIVING ME BATSHIT!!!!!; 12:46 PM
Me2 said...: I agree, calling BS on no drinking for 15 yrs I've seen pics of his clearly with a drink in hand, was a few years ago tho.

reacherb no its not your imagination this page so full of spam, ads and shockwave/flash crap it is loads like sludge. Gotta check for flash & ad block widgets for chrome.....; 1:08 PM
misspeg86 said...: Here we go again with the whole ad blocker thing. I use my phone to view CDaN so I don't have issues but seriously this topic comes up every few days!; 2:08 PM
DontRainOnMyPrada said...: Well when a site is unusable without an adblocker (or using the mobile version), there's something seriously wrong. It may as well be a porn site.; 2:15 PM
DontRainOnMyPrada said...: My point is, it's not the consumer's fault, and as long as this site continues to use these sorts of low class, nasty ads, there are going to be a steady stream of complaints, until people finally give up and are driven away.; 2:19 PM
DixieTheNoble82 said...: 'auntlicky' - that really amused me.; 3:36 PM
Serena Skye said...: Me too Dixie, I'm surprised no one else caught that lol; 4:54 PM
nunaurbiz said...: I still don't know why people are so hard on him for sleeping around. He's a virile man with few attachments (he has had gfs from time to time, nobody famous.) It's not like he was cheating.

That said, I'm still a fan, Gerry! MWAH!; 4:58 PM
Mother Campfire said...: I agree with Don'tRainOnMyPrada. I mean, these ads can't pay SO well that CDAN would rather lose clicks/readers....right?; 5:01 PM
Mary Anne said...: I don't believe the booze thing. He always comes across as smashed. If was on coke, he must have had pot chasers 'cause he has the pudge of a pothead.; 7:33 PM
Alicia said...: My gf was in Betty ford with him. It was coke .. She said he never mentioned pain killers and was adamant even in treatment that he wasn't drinking. She and I were in a 28 day program together and she left the day we got out for BF.. I consider her a reliable source; 8:25 PM
julie said...: Lainey calls him Spittle and says he has all kinds of disgusting habits. God only knows.; 2:12 PM
Me2 said...: I dunno about the booze thing, i remember reading first hand reports that he HAS been drinking since the 15 yr mark but *shrug* I guess its only an issue or point of curiosity because he insists he isn't. All power to him though, I hope he keeps fighting the good fight.

re: ads- if you're Chrome web browser please try simple ad block it works like a DREAM along with the flash block extension. works really well (the adblock 2.5 45 that is top of the chrome webstore when you search for adblock extensions is a mess. doesn't work as well as simple ad block- not affiliated with any of these just thought I'd share.); 8:08 AM
paige said...: He doesn't drink...he's got Hep he's not damaging his liver worse......it was for cocaine.; 10:52 PM
