Jason Bateman Overcame Drugs, Booze

Bateman

Jason Bateman, possibly the coolest celebrity on the face of the earth, has a lot going for him these days.  He has hit movies, a beautiful family, and a cherished television classic.  But, as he attests in a new interview with Details magazine, things weren’t always so great.

The 1990’s consisted of Bateman drinking and doing drugs to the point of almost losing his wife.  “Booze was what would make me want to stay out all night and do some blow or smoke a joint or whatever, so shutting that off was key,” said Bateman.  Finally, his wife gave him an ultimatum and he decided to kick the habits.

He went to an AA meeting and thought “Do you want to continue to be great at being in your 20s, or do you want to step up and graduate into adulthood?” He’s been sober ever since.  He now has a healthy life, family and career.

Hop over here to read a little more from the interview or pick up the latest issue of Details to read the entire thing.

Linda Hogan wasting alimony on drugs?

Linda and Hulk Hogan

Things are really heating up at Hulk Hogan and Linda Hogan’s divorce hearings.  TMZ reports The Hulkster is claiming his ex-wife is spending her temporary alimony cash on drugs.  He’s even got witnesses testifying on his behalf.

A hairdresser claims Linda is cashing her checks for buying pot and painkillers.  Also, a truck driver claimed he saw Linda doing coke.  These people are under oath and speaking to a judge.  Yikes!

She’s getting $40,000 a month from Hulk but that may change after this damning testimony. But who knows the truth?  Maybe the witnesses are fibbing. I know I would lie for Hulk Hogan, that guy could rip me in two.
