So what's Brooke Mueller been up to since she burst onto the scene by marrying Charlie Sheen, dropping twins, getting into a ruckus with her current ex back on Christmas - Brooke claimed Charlie pulled a knife on her, then she took it back, and then her lawyer took back her retraction - going into rehab, and then into divorce court? Well she's not as busy as Sheen. He's still got his hit show 2 1/2 Men; although that has slipped from No 1 to No 2 in the ratings. Charlie also went on that hotel frenzy with a porn star in NYC that got him in the media and into some kind of rehabilitation type program (he's hired a sober companion. Now there's a sit com right there, or even better, a reality TV show!). He hasn't turned up in any of those NBC Dateline investigative "sting" reports where men get caught trying to meet up with teenagers that they believed they met online; but he's been out there and showing signs of life.Mueller has been keeping herself busy. She's got some kind of new reality TV deal cooked up with Paris Hilton. Some might say that Paris' standards in side kicks is slipping hard since Nicole Richie got pregnant and went legit, but then again she hasn't exactly been overwhelmed with choices for new BFF's lately. So you take what you can get. At least Paris hasn't sunk down to palling around with Kate Gosselin or anything. So we'll be getting to see more of her in a Paris Hilton type format - lucky us, and she'll get a check to add to the money she'll get out of Charlie. That should tide her over financially at least until she can get herself together enough to get on Dancing With The Stars. That's where disgraced celebrities got o redeem themselves. That's also where the money is if we can believe the stories about what Bristol Palin got paid. Considering that the young woman has no apparent talent outside of reproduction, she's makin' out like a bandit! That's Bristol I mean, although it might apply equally well to Ms. Mueller.
Perhaps it was with a future on DWTS in mind that Mueller made her next move. That move was into rehab. Rehab is a harsh word (increasingly so in this day and age). Maybe that's why a spokesperson for Ms. Mueller - in this case her mom Moira Fiore (Mueller can afford better since Charlie but why not keep it in the family?) - rephrases it as entering a "sober living facilty". She has more spin to, and says in a statement to People Mag that "She is struggling and we are going away on a cruise so we feel better that she will be there while we are gone." Mom's pretty good at this PR spin thing for an amateur.
This isn't Mueller's 1st stint in a 'supervised environment'. Back after the big Christmas Day knife fight she checked into rehab as well. Seems she was even more tanked up than Charlie at that event. Then there were those Perezhilton rumors about her being a coke head who had to go into rehab, or whatever she'd call it, while pregnant. So Mueller has a history of finding it hard to cope, as well as a history of being hard to live with!
However things are looking up for Mueller & Co. She's totally stoked about this new Paris Hilton thing. IN fact that was instruemntal into her checking in according to her spokesmom - "Paris and the other girls on the show are going to Las Vegas and Brooke did not feel she could handle it now," Fiore told People. "She was scared. We're all happy she will be in the facility and hope she will be better."She got hooked up with that through her good friend Kathy Hilton, Paris' mom. Now good friend might be a bot of overstatement. In fact I doubt that Hilton even knew who the fuck Mueller was before she hooked up with Sheen. Then again marrying into money and fame can open a lot of doors for you - in addition to the door to rehab.
The View From Space
Is Prince William the antichrist? Most people would say "No! Of course not! Now get back on your medications." If you're a regular listener to Gary Bell and his regular radio broadcast the View From Space then you might say "Of course! Why didn't I think of it before!" Gary does make a compelling case: Wills mother did have the same name as a pagan goddess, plus his grandmother is an old witch. He's got more stuff to say on it too. So now, with a well needed break from his Harry Potter material, is the latest from the Spaceman.
