Brigitte Nielsen in Rehab -- Who Knew?!

Brigitte NielsenIn case you thought rehab was just for twentysomethings, TMZ has learned that 44-year-old Brigitte Nielsen checked into rehab a few weeks ago -- and is getting out in the next 24 hours. Clean and sober and completely under the radar!

A source close to Nielsen tells us she checked herself into North Hollywood's Cri-Help treatment facility several weeks ago and is doing well. Although it isn't known what Flava Flav's ex-girlfriend is in treatment for, our source says, "It was her decision," adding "It was the right time." Cheers to that!

Looks like Lindsay and Britney have someone else they can not drink with all night!

107. Congratulations, Brigitte! I wish you the best. Since rehab has become a fashionable trend which requires checking in, sometimes, to a treatment facility which allows clients to check out, alot, it is to Brigitte's credit that she views this commitment to sobriety a positive step. I regret she was not allowed to do so in privacy, but perhaps she will inspire others who truly need to make a change to take it seriously.

112. PLEASE PEOPLE — go this website and sign the petition for Michael Vick’s suspension (not a release until he has had his day in court, but a suspension for sure!) The indictment states that he abused and slaughtered dogs and if we don’t stop him he’s going to get away with it! Let the NFL and other sport’s organizations know that this abuse will not be tolerated! Stop these million $ professional THUGS! Go here to sign with The Animal Humane Society https://community.hsus.org/campaign/US_2007_dogfighting_nfl2?qp_source=gaba6w

116. I am 43, mother of two, occasional drinker... she DOES look 60! The drawn-on eyebrows aren't doing a thing for her...

"Celebrities" like Brigitte can afford personal trainers, nutritionists, BOTOX, etc. where I can't... so I'm feeling pretty good about myself about now!

119. Now she needs to stay away from that nasty Flavo-Flav.

120. Uhgg. She's just as ugly as she used to be.

And to think that SHE was the one who broke Sly Stallone's heart way back when.

Go figure.
