Backstreet Boys member A.J. McLean has entered rehab.
The 33-year-old singer confirmed the news with the following statement:
"For personal reasons, I've checked myself into a rehab clinic. With 2011 being a busy year for Backstreet [Boys], I want to be healthy and at my best. Thank you for all of your support and respecting my family and friends privacy during this time. I'll see you really soon."
This past weekend, McLean tweeted, "Its gonna be a great year! I love u all and wish me luck! I start my sober journey tomm!" On Monday, he added, "See u on the other side!"
Back in 2001 and 2002, the BSB sought treatment for alcohol abuse and depression.
Due Date actor Zach Galifianakis sparked up a doobie on Real Time with Bill Maher because, er, maybe he thought his name wasn't in the news enough after the whole Mel Gibson/Hangover 2 debacle? Anyway, watch the hilariousness above!
Facebook co-founder Sean Parker has donated $100,000 to California's Prop 19 ballot measure to legalize marijuana, and he's not the only one -- fellow co-founder Dustin Moskovitz has made two donations totalling $70,000 as well.
Stephen Gutwillig, a spokesman for the Drug Policy Alliance, said in a statement, "What's interesting here is that (Parker) is a member of the generation that really gets it. We think he's pivotal to the future of drug policy reform in the country."
Though Parker and Moskovitz still have ownership stakes in Facebook, they are no longer working with the website. This announcement comes on the heels of the box office success of The Social Network, which has made Parker, Moskovitz and founder Mark Zuckerberg household names over the past few weeks.
