Mackenzie Phillips -- Student Becomes the Master

16. I was with MacKenzie during a weekend women's spiritual retreat and when sober, she demonstrated her desire to remain clean. Perhaps by being a sober coach, it will help her as much as she will help someone else. Good luck!!

True, except for the word "Supermodel" I mean come on...if Janice dickenson, who never even made the cover of a high profile American Mag. can call herself a "Supermodel" then you know the term is pretty much meaningless.

20. "3. Oh my lord I can't wait! Some I don't know either, WTH is Mike Star and there was another chick I didn't recognize. But we have Rodman (oh lord help them all), Joey from Real World (aww love him, but what a temper a drunk has), MM from the country world. I just want to tell VH1 to get ready with the insert the words thingy for when Dennis talks, cuz he MUMBLES when he talks so please, be ready to decode for us all. "

Um - that would be Mike Starr from Alice in Chains. Maybe you've heard of them? His singer Layne died of a tragic heroin overdose and I would love to see Mike get help. He's actually a really nice guy. They just got caught up in the "fame game". Everything in excess - no limits - world at your fingertips and hangers on ready willing and able to provide you with anything you didn't even know you wanted. Before that, they were nice, normal guys who drank beer and played music. The industry is what sent them into their spirals. Good luck Mike!

21. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?????!!!!!! Really, can someone tell me...please.

22. I




















I am soo glad they finally got a great sober coach for this show!! I saw Mac at an event 3 weeks ago and she looked great! All she talked about was how rehab had saved her life and that long-term rehab was what addicts really needed. I believe it worked for her. Dr Drews crew is often so negative about rehab working so I think she is a good fresh face for the show! I wish her all the best. This looks likes a tough crew, but I bet she will help whip them into shape.

23. I think Mackenzie is a very brave woman.Everybody deserves to make the best of thier life.She needs support ,not snide remarks and words of doubt.Life kicks her around enough she doesnt need the people in this life to kick her around too!

24. Is that Mike Starr, as in the original bass player of Alice In Chains? I LOVED him when I was 20!! How is he relivant now? And where and what flat rock was disturbed to produce this motley crew? - Not Motley Crue......although that might be a good idea for the next season of Celeb Rehab.

25. I completely agree with Bex #7. Are you kidding with stating that Drew Pinsky "exploits" these people? If you've ever watched the show, you'd understand Drew's intention and how beneficial this show has been in understanding addiction and how challenging recovery can be, not just for celebraties, but for everyone. The whole Mary Carey situation is heartbreaking to watch. I just don't understand how you can say that Dr. Drew has exploited any of these people struggling with addiction. TMZ filming Mary sitting on the sidewalk in Hollywood, druck off her ass, now THAT'S exploitation!

Project much, TMZ?

26. Shouldn't sober coach be sober for more than two days. How can you tell someone they can live sober when there is still coke resdidue in your nose.

28. I've always liked Mackenzie and thought she was really good on One Day at a Time. A better actress imo than Valerie Bertinelli though certainly not as attractive which might be why she wasn't as popular. I'm wondering how much further she could have went had she not gotten off into drugs the way she did. I was under the impression all these years that she was clean and sober so imagine my disappointment to hear of her arrest at LAX. Mackenzie is not the right choice to be a sober coach on this show. We're talking about a woman who was just busted for drugs in August 2008. Who's going to take her very seriously when she's been clean for such a short amount of time? They need someone to fill her position on the show who's been clean and sober at least five years not a few months.

29. She should know more then anyone that she has no buisness being a coach. Rule of thumb is to nothing for at least a year. doesn't matter rehabs she went to. she has no knowledge of being sober

30. Does anyone know if this Mike Starr is the same Mike Starr that was the former bassist of Alice In Chains? He was so hot back in the day. He looks a little rough now. Yeah, save a couple of the others, I have no clue who these people are.
