Dr. Drew Has Some Shit To Say About Brangelina

It's a slow week and the flu is fucking me not-so-gently and refusing to stop, so now seems like a good time to read what Dr. Drew has to say about what will happen when the holy duality of Brangelina breaks into a million pieces. For some reason, HuffPo asked Dr. Drew to give his opinion on everyone from Miley Cyrus ("She's in trouble") to Kelsey Grammer ("I can't make sense of it") and this is what he said about Brangie:

Just add up a couple things. There's no such thing as 'I was a heroin addict.' That doesn't exist in nature. Something is going on with [her] addiction. Or she's in recovery. And I don't see any evidence that's the case. So we've got one person who's a heroin addict. Which is a chronic lifelong condition, period. We have another person who has said things like, "Well, Jennifer [Aniston] was into long-term relationships, that's just her way of looking at things." I mean, that demeaning attitude towards other people's emotions. Now put those two people together and you have got a really volatile situation. And they're constantly creating things to weld themselves together. Which is only going to serve to make a more nuclear eruption. There will be some sort of meltdown that will be phenomenal when it does happen.

Dr. Drew's right. When Brangie breaks, so will the world. The Four Horsemen will be replaced by Jennifer Aniston's lonely vagina squirting FUCK YES juices for the first time in years and the swarm of locusts will be replaced by the blood and tears of rabid Brangeloonies who have nothing to live for anymore. But more importantly, can somebody please ask Dr. Drew if it's okay if I drink the used water in my Vicks Vapor Humidifier? With whiskey, of course.

What's got me really angry about this post is that Dr. Drew never once mentioned that Brad Pitt is a lousy actor!!! I mean, he's bordering on Ben Affleck type of ability.

They aren't exactly hands on parents, and then there's the whole traveling circus issue. Just because you are capable of making/having/adopting children doesn't mean you should

********************

Exactly! Do you ever notice that in interviews Jolie constantly brings up the fact that they don't have ANY help at the house during the night ...and she drones on and on about how her and Brad get no sleep. The fact that she keeps bringing it up tells me that they in fact DO have plenty of help at night. I'm sure after 14 hours shooting on a film set - the last thing she wants to do is come home and not get any sleep. I find it impossible to believe that Pitt is caring for all 6 - esp the twins who are like 2 yrs old! YEAH , they have no help. BULLSHIT. She wants to be perceived as the hands on parent - but just b/c you have no nannies at night doesnt mean their not watching your kids all damn day!! That's NOT hands on, bitch.

No Angie Jo fan here, but really, Dr. Drew? Really? There is no recovery without exception from heroin addiction without lifelong medical intervention such as...oh I don't know...YOU offer for boat loads of money and lots of publicity? I find that unlikely.
I think the real issue is, the addicts you see time and time again don't recover under your supervision either because they are extremely tough cases or because your medical intervention SUCKS.
And besides, did Angie Jo ever say she was an addict? Did she ever use that word? She admitted to using heroin. That I know. That doesn't mean she was an addict. Hell, maybe she did admit to that and maybe she is chasing the dragon to this day. I don't know and I don't care, but I have a problem with this twat diagnosing people he's presumably never met based on their statements to the media.

When did Jolie ever admit to a heroin addiction?
_________________________________________________

Since we're both wondering the same thing, I clicked on the HuffPo article that linked to another article that said AJ told British Cosmo, "I've done just about every drug possible. Coke, heroin, ecstasy, everything." So no, she didn't admit to an addiction, but I know from Loveline that to Dr. Drew, you can't just try heroin, you're basically an addict as soon as you first take it.

mharker's picture

Wait, did Angie Jo ever say or was it confirmed that she was/is a heroin addict? Yeah, she looks like one, but I don't remember that being a fact. I like Dr. Drew in general, but sometimes he's too speculative. This is the guy who thought Jim Henson secretly died from a drug overdose until someone who worked at Loveline researched the illness he'd had.

I am confused about the purpose of the statement. What was he asked exactly?

Doctor Drew is cool but he takes himself a little too serious like. He would do well to open his mind a little...but then, he's an addict too...

You see the pecs on this bitch?! Straight up addicted to adrenalin and endorphins cuz he has no need of that frame (lovely tho it may be:).

I used to think that Dr Drew was OK until he got the Uchitel ho on the show for'love addiction'-more like "I fuck other peoples rich or famous husbands and Im a fucking whore addiction"....
Hes right that addiction is a disease but not everybody who does drugs is an addict- there are plenty of recreational drug users including heroin ....has Saint Angie ever said she was an addict?
Shes not on the junk-shes very thin and looks wiped out 90% of the time but it just looks like lack of sleep to me and Im 13 years sober so I believe I have the eye for this...
AS regards carting the child army around the world-what exactly is the problem with that???
They travel to places where 50% of the shildren dont make it to 5 years old through war and preventable disease so lets get it into perspective...
If nothing else she has raised awareness of the disenfranchised of the world and the worlds refugees and whether she does that for her ego or not (I happen to think not) that can only be a good thing...

I think Dr. Drew is right about their relationship. I don't agree that addiction is a disease though. I think Brad and Angie are stuck with each other and they are both dealing with by drinking and doing drugs.

yeah well Mr.Drew Angie cares about something else besides who her newest "friend" will be and trend is.
Ang has a family and husband, a lot to have these days.

I've watched a few of the recent epis of Celebrity Rehab and it's interesting that Dr Drew has a rational explaination for all of the nastiness that occurs between the celebs. Oh...it's because their experiencing withdrawal or...they're really starting to get in touch with there inner conflicts and that's why they're so insulting to one another.

Here's my question and its serious. Why are Brangie bashing posts always the top posts? Why are we still not tired of it or the fact that Brad left Jennifer for Angie?
Hoards of H-wood couples have gotten together and split since then yet we are fixated on this one. Whats the secret?

Because Angelina will always be the most wanted woman anywhere. When Brad's gone, she'll still be the news. She might look terrible in candid pics, but she's gorgeous after she gets Photoshopped. BTW. I think the weird skin pulling thing in those pics from the set of The Tourist are pulls from a Scotch tape facelift.

Why doesn't Dr. Drew pick on Nicole Ritchie? She admitted to herion use, got busted for it...got a DUI much later for taking perscription opiate pills. Does Angie Jo have THAT kind of record? No. Personally, I think he MAY be right about the sainted one. But he's become as much of a media whore as she is. It's amazing how shrinks have so little insight into themselves...or either they know the mind fuck their hawking stinks like yesterday's shit pile so they don't give a fuck.

Of course a psychiatrist would say that in order to succeed at adiction you have to be in treatment for life. Dr. Drew is more fame whore than doctor now. I don't think that he's had any success with his Celebrity Rehab show. Really and truely the people who go on that show are trading one addiction for another (attention).

----------------------------------
Menage a NO! NO! NO!-MK

I know this sounds completely short-bussed, but I blame Marcheline and Jon for Angelina's problems. Angelina is a more successful version of Lindsay Lohan when it comes to her mind and denial of her VERY obvious issues.

But the ones who are suffering the most are her children. People bash on single mother/single father households, but how is what Brangelina doing any better? They aren't exactly hands on parents, and then there's the whole traveling circus issue. Just because you are capable of making/having/adopting children doesn't mean you should.

I used to like Dr. Drew a lot but lately all he does is try and drum up publicity for himself by talking shit about celebrities he has never met. Nobody should take advice from a Dr. that will speak publicly about the mental state of people he has never met.

Also I lived with a former heroine addict for 2 years, he was clean for 2 years before I met him and still is to this day. I first met him in 2004 when I was a freshman in college and we were roommates my Jr. and Sr. years. so sorry Dr. Drew but it is possible to get over it.

@Messege in a Bottle - I used to think he was way hot when he was a bit younger and before he started turning into a VH1 reality douche.

I don't understand the Aniston quote. Brad said it? and why?

He forgot to add Pitt's a pothead, so I'm sure they're both into some addictive behavior. Not to mention Pitt has some weird identity/personality problem, or lack of one, because he's always adopting his girlfriend's personalities. That's some weird mental shit right there.

I don't mean to be snarky, I really don't, but I have no idea why you addressed that post to me.

I made no comments about "morality"-all I took issue with was the comment that Pitt was "young". IMHO, someone who is pushing 50 is not young and it certainly is more than enough time for one to reach maturity. That's all.

I don't really give a toss if these two stay or split.

It's my understanding via Law & Order, a bunch of other crime dramas and the Dlist recovery crowd that addiction is not curable, you in fact learn to stop your addictions every single day, if there was a "cure" so to speak, there would be no relapses, etc...
Just because Skeletina had kids does not mean she isn't still an addict. Addicts, crackheads, et al have been known to stay clean through a pregnancy, it is why I still believe Skelly is still on drugs, her pregnancy weight was the big tell...

KidL, I have no idea. I've never been one to think that the celebrity world draws in a lot of extremely moral, 'normal' folks.

When I look at the celebrity marriage/divorce trend, I'm simply not surprised. I think the difference with this, is that they were two top faves and people really wanted to believe that they could live like 'normal' people.

I'm just not surprised. Also, is there a link to where people have determined 100% who moved in on who on the set of 'Mr & Mrs. Smith'? Are people certain that Brad didn't have roving eyes and make a pass at Angelina first? I know that she 'shouldn't have gone there', but if he's not acting married...she wouldn't be the one to place all of the blame on. I'm asking honestly, as I don't hang with them day in/day out. I only see pictures, read rumors, like most people.

The whole must always be traveling/on an adventure/globetrotting thing really irks me. Has any of their 'beloved' children ever spent an entire year in a school ? Even stage kids who are usually tutored on set at least stay in a particular place (the set) more often than not. It's not like the kids are off promoting their own crap (Willow and Jayden--not that the Smith's do any better). I can't even imagine the whole living out of a suitcase lifestyle these kids have and their 18 different sets of clothes and toys at their various estates. And while children can easily pick up another language I imagine the youngest ones must be confused by all of it. English, Vietnamese,Hungarian, French, Polish, Swahili--how the hell are they going to develop skills in a primary language when they need to be constantly switching?

I worked with a "girl" who was 27 and was constantly late to work, always needed Daddy to help cover the rent and so many people would say, "What do you expect? She's a kid."

Nope, sorry but she's not a "kid" and Pitt is not some 20 year old frat boy.

I have known enough people to know that some people never mature no matter how old they get. Me thinks Papa Pitt is one of them, and God help those poor kids who were dragged into this circus.

On one hand, I agree with everything Dr. Drew says. I don't for a second believe that Angie isn't on SOmething... there was an Aweful Truth BV hinting that she was getting something like methadone scrips from numerous drs. And I think hers and Brad's relationship is toxic.

On the other hand, I think it sucks that Drew would comment on the personal issues of people he doesn't know personally or treat (and, of course, it would suck if they WERE his patients and he commented publicly on them). Not professional, not kind, not cool.

i see your point. acute physical addiction is the least of the problems. there are all kinds of medical treatments for acute addiction, and many of them, believe it or not, are readily available outpatient trough a general pc. acute physical addictions are extremely easy to overcome. a general pc can write a prescription for librium that will dry out an alcoholic, or a low level synthetic opioid to dry out a pain killer or morphine or herion addict. all that stuff is extremely easy to fix, and many times within a matter of days. nicotine withdrawal is the absolute worst with a 30-90 day withdrawal period.

what the problem is the psychological. no one can figure out why they want to continue doing what they do, even after the acute withdrawal. it is a great mystery. the only thing i can possibly sum it up to is that you just have to no longer want to do it. why some people come out of it and others don't is a great mystery to these people. they can't figure it out, and quit frankly, we can't either.
