Charlie Sheen To Rehab At Home

Charlie Sheen is reportedly doing his rehab inside the boundaries of his home and not the usual traditional treatment facility.

Charlie Sheen wants his privacy and a professional to fight his demons.
His manager Mark Burg told People, "Charlie has put together a team that he trusts to help get him sober once and for all."
Charlie's latest rehab treatment is due his recent drug-fueled bender which included lots of women including porn star Kacey Jordan. His 36-hour binge at his Los Angeles home landed him to a hospital.

CBS is putting the production of his hit show "Two and a Half Men" in indefinite hiatus.

I don't think privacy is the issue here. He is still avoiding the truth that he heeded help that's why he doesn't want to enter a rehab facility.

Ali Larter Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Gossip Wallpaper Video.

A former teen model who segued into acting in her early 20s, Ali Larter's fresh look enabled her to play high school students for the first few years of her screen career. After turning heads in "Varsity Blues" (1999), and the blockbuster teen horror films "Final Destination" (2000) and "Final Destination 2" (2003), Larter had a brief flirtation with big screen comedy before establishing her calling card in roles as strong, nurturing women in extraordinary situations. She reached new heights with her ensemble role in the acclaimed sci-fi drama series "Her s" (NBC, 2006- ), where she initially played a single mother with a split personality. While her first character was written out of the series, Larter was transformed into an aspiring politician with the power to manipulate water. She was an especially popular draw for young audiences, proven by nominations at the Teen Choice Awards. Larter ventured into more adventurous roles with two thrillers, "Resident Evil: Extinction" (2007) and "Obsessed" (2009), which successfully positioned her as a film star for all audiences - one capable of successfully embodying both hero and villain nude wallpaper.Boyfriend, hot Ali Larter.
Born on Feb. 28, 1976 and raised in the suburb of Cherry Hill, NJ, Larter was the daughter of a homemaker mother and an executive father who worked for a trucking company. The baby of the family, she traded in her childhood penchant for sports and tomboyish pursuits at the onset of her teens, in favor of commercial acting and modeling across the river. An association with New York's famed Ford Modeling Agency at age 14 allowed the young Larter a chance to appear in publications like Seventeen and to do extensive traveling to places such as Australia and Japan - the latter of which served as the location of her first overseas shoot at the age of 17. With enough success in the industry, Larter eventually made a decision to eschew her senior year of high school in favor of a burgeoning career as a model.
By 1996, following a stint modeling in Miami, FL, Larter had decided to make the leap to Hollywood in an attempt at an acting career. She was encouraged in this new pursuit by a friend and fellow model-turned-actress, Amy Smart, whom she had met while on a modeling job in Milan. She enrolled in an acting class and fell in love with it. That year, she was also offered a unique modeling job for Esquire magazine, one which even came with its own backstory. Appearing on the November cover as the fabricated rising "star" Allegra Coleman of its lead article, "Hollywood's Next Dream Girl: The Allegra Coleman Nobody Knows," Larter's serious Hollywood profile caused quite a stir, prompting appearances on several national morning talk shows including ABC's "Good Morning America" (1975- ).
With some early heat on her almost fictional entry into Hollywood, Larter landed an agent and found work quickly, putting in legitimate guest appearances during the first half of 1997 on the NBC sitcoms "Suddenly Susan" (1996-2000) and "Chicago Sons" (1997). In what seemed like perfect casting, she was attached to a previously-written movie script called "The It Girl," about a fictional magazine model personality similar to the one she portrayed in Esquire. That project stalled, but, not content to merely serve as a pretty face, Larter opted to mix things up and the following year by adding some drama to her resume. First, she appeared on the CBS medical series, "Chicago Hope" (1994-2000), before wrapping up 1998 with a pair of episodes of The WB's teen drama, "Dawson's Creek" (1998-2003).

In 1998, Larter and Smart auditioned for the same role in the MTV Films teen sports drama, "Varsity Blues" (1999). Larter nabbed the role, but Smart was cast shortly thereafter as well, portraying James Van Der Beek's girlfriend. It was Larter's first film role, but in a genre populated by attractive twenty-somethings, she established herself as anything but an arbitrary presence. An instant, sexy impression was forged with viewers when her character, Darcy Sears, seduced Van Der Beek's with a makeshift bikini shaped entirely from whipped cream.
The now very memorable Larter was starting to land more speaking parts with some regularity, culminating with a lead role in the remake of "House on Haunted Hill" (1999). She was then cast as a lead in the cast of "Final Destination" (2000) - a moody thriller about a group of plane crash survivors stalked by Death itself - a film franchise that became a modest success. Larter then returned to comedy, playing a legal client in the Reese Witherspoon vehicle, "Legally Blonde" (2001), just as the film rocketed its star into leading lady status. That year, she went east and stepped onto the stage to appear in an off-Broadway production of "The Vagina Monologues." Retaining her East Coast state of mind, she was also tapped by director and fellow Jerseyite Kevin Smith to be part of a sexy trio of thieves in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" (2001).
Although Later was enjoying her work, she was becoming less of a fan of Los Angeles and the hard knocks it took to make it in the business. After taking some time off midway into 2002, she decided to exit Hollywood and reassess her career goals, planting roots in Manhattan. Still, it seemed Tinseltown was willing to follow her lead. She was working less fervently and choosing projects more sporadically, but the studios remained fans. She was offered top billing to reprise her role as Clear Rivers in "Final Destination 2" (2003) before landing a supporting role in the big screen romantic comedy, "A Lot like Love" (2005), starring Amanda Peet and Ashton Kutcher.

In 2005, a rejuvenated Larter journeyed back to Los Angeles. The first audition she gave, for a primetime television pilot, was a hit with producers. The show, fortuitously, was NBC's "Her s," which began airing in the fall of 2006. Larter, who could walk on either the troubled or the sweet and sexy side onscreen, returned to television to play both and became a household name when the show - about ordinary people discovering their own super gifts - took flight as a surprising phenomenon. As Niki, a loving, single mother whose personality is shared with one of violent Hulk-like brutality named Jessica, Larter found an opportunity to sink into one of the hit series' most complex roles. During her stint on "Her s," Larter continued to develop a film career, first battling evil in the ravaged world of the successful sci-fi thriller "Resident Evil: Extinction" (2007). From the post-apocalyptic future, she went back in time to play the prehistoric woman in an ingenious caveman's dreams in "National Lampoon's Stoned Age" (2007), which was released straight to DVD.
After her leading role as an American B-movie actress stranded in India in the limited release, "Marigold" (2007), Larter took a few years off from the big screen to recover from her breakout year. When she returned to the "Her s" set for the third season, she found that her character Niki Sanders had been written out of the series. Instead, the actress portrayed Tracy Strauss, Sanders' aspiring politician sister who possessed the power to turn anything into ice and herself into water. The twenty-something still proved to be a teen draw with a pair of Supporting Actress nominations and one win from the Teen Choice Awards. She returned to theaters with a starring turn in the profitable, but critically reviled sex thriller "Obsessed" (2009), where she played a temp office worker who stalks her married boss (Idris Elba).

Debbie Gibson Biography News Profile Relationships Photo Wallpaper Video.

BORN: August 31, 1970, Long Island, NY
Full name: Deborah Ann Gibson
Confirmation name: Marie
Religious denomination: Catholic
Date of birth: August 31, 1970
Place of birth: Brooklyn, New York
Education: Sanford H. Calhoun High School, June 1988
Marital Status: Single

Deborah Gibson started her career at a young age. She got experience in theater by playing roles in plays like "A Christmas Carol", "Annie" and "Mickey Mouse and Friends". At age 12, she started songwriting seriously. She was part of the Metropolitan Opera for several years, doing opera's like "Hansel und Gretel", "La Boheme" and "Le Rossignol", some of which meant singing in a foreign language.Deborah got her first recording contract at age 16, for a 12" aimed at the dance market. Late 1986, "Only in my Dreams" was released, a song she had written three years prior. After it became a hit, 6 months of hard work performing at various clubs later, she recorded her first album, titled "Out of the Blue". It went triple platinum, just like her second album "Electric Youth", which was released in January 1989. With the song "Foolish Beat" she set a record: she became the youngest artist in chart history to have written, produced, and performed a Number 1 song.
After Deborah's third album, "Anything is Possible", she made her broadway debut as Eponine in the musical "Les Miserables". She continued her efforts in theater by appearing as Sandy in the musical "Grease" on London's West End for a period of nine months, shortly after she had released her fourth album "Body Mind Soul". Her fifth album, called "Think With Your Heart", once more showed her abilities as a songwriter, musician, singer and producer. It contains mostly ballads with Deborah playing piano, accompanied by an orchestra.

Deborah played Betty Rizzo in the National Touring Company of Grease. She was part of the cast from October 29 1995 through March 3 1996, touring through the USA and performing in 19 different cities in a usually sold out theatre. Deborah recorded her sixth album, "Deborah", in the summer of 1996, after which she starred as Fanny Brice in a brief revival of the musical "Funny Girl". She continued showing her passion for theatre by playing Belle in the Broadway musical "Beauty and the Beast" for nine months, followed by starring as Gypsy Rose Lee in the Papermill Playhouse production of Gypsy, playing the narrator in the US touring production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and the title role in the US touring production of Cinderella.

On March 6, 2001, she released her seventh studio album, titled "M.Y.O.B. (Mind Your Own Business)".
Besides her own career, she has written and/or produced material for several other artists (Chris Cuevas, Ana, the Party, Jobeth Taylor) and regularly participates on 'various artists' albums benefiting charities. She surprised many, including her own fans, by singing backup vocals for a song on the last Circle Jerks album.
Deborah has an upbeat, caring, open-minded, ambitious and family-oriented personality. In her career she has always had the support of her family. Her mother, Diane, is also her manager. Her sisters have also helped from the start by doing things like designing her stage-outfits, sound engineering and running the fan club.
She supports several charities, among which are the Pediatric AIDS Foundation, the Make-A-Wish Foundation and St. Mary's Children & Families Foundation. The latter is a home for abused, orphaned and/or neglected children. Deborah's father, Joe Gibson, has spent several years there. After listing those causes, it should come as no surprise that Deborah is very fond of children. She hasn't got any of her own yet, but has stated that she definitely wants several children, of her own as well as adopted.

Debbie Gibson became a pop phenomenon in the late '80s, scoring a string of hit singles when she was only 17. Although she was still a teenager, Gibson showed signs of being a talented pop craftsman, capable of making catchy dance-pop in the style of Madonna, as well as lush, orchestrated ballads. Gibson's time at the top of the charts was brief, but it was quite successful, producing five Top Ten singles, including two number ones, and two multi-platinum albums.

Gibson began writing songs in her early childhood, taking piano lessons from Morton Estrin (who also taught Billy Joel) from the age of five. At the age of six she wrote "Make Sure You Know Your Classroom," but it was "I Come From America," which she wrote at age 12, that earned wide recognition for her talents. "I Come From America" won 1,000 dollars in a songwriting contest, prompting her parents to sign a management contract with Doug Breithart. Breithart helped Gibson learn several instruments, as well as teaching her how to arrange, engineer, and produce records; she would record over 100 of her own songs by 1985.
While she was still in high school, Debbie Gibson signed with Atlantic Records and began recording her debut album with producer Fred Zarr. "Only in My Dreams," her debut single, climbed to number four when it was released in the summer of 1987. It was followed in the fall by the dance-oriented "Shake Your Love," which also peaked at number four; the single also became a hit in Britain, reaching number seven. Out of the Blue, her debut album, was released in the fall of 1987, and by the spring of 1988, it had reached the American Top Ten. The title track became a number-three hit that spring and it was followed by her first number one single, "Foolish Beat," making her the youngest artist ever to write, perform, and produce a number one single. Following the success of "Foolish Beat," Gibson graduated from Calhoun High School in Merrick, NY, with honors. "Staying Together," released in the fall of 1988, didn't perform as well as her previous four singles, stalling at number 22. By the end of 1988, Out of the Blue had gone triple platinum in the U.S.

"Lost in Your Eyes," the first single from her second album, Electric Youth, became Gibson's biggest hit early in 1989, staying at number one for three weeks. Electric Youth, released in the spring of 1989, also hit number one, spending five weeks at the top of the charts. However, her popularity began to slip by the end of the year -- "Electric Youth" just missed the Top Ten and her next two singles did progressively worse, with "We Could Be Together" unable to climb past number 71. At the end of 1990, she released her third album, Anything Is Possible; it peaked at number 41. Two years later, she released Body Mind Soul, which produced only one minor hit single, "Losin' Myself." After its release, she starred in a production of +Les Miserables. Gibson returned to pop music in 1995, recording a duet of the Soft Boys' "I Wanna Destroy You" with the Los Angeles punk band the Circle Jerks and releasing a considerably softer album of her own, Think With Your Heart, which marked a departure from the dance-pop that made her famous. What You Want was released in fall 2000. M.Y.O.B. followed in early 2001, and Colored Lights: The Broadway Album two years later.
