Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora Enters Rehab

Friday June 8, 2007
Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora has entered rehab, according to People magazine. Reports about the scandalous Tuesday night MTV taping of Bon Jovi Unplugged have just now begun to surface. Rumor has it that Richie was completely drunk during the show and making tons of mistakes on the guitar.

Spies for PerezHilton claim that the band kept taking breaks to give Richie a chance to catch up to them. Perhaps Richie is still nursing a broken heart from his recent split with Denise Richards after spending over a year together. I know that it can be tough to get over a breakup, but it's not like he lost all that much. Women like Denise are a dime a dozen and he'll be back in the game in no time.

Why anyone would be heart broken over Denise “Man Stealing Single Mom Baggage Ridden” Richards is beyond me!

Yes I do have sympathy for him. He’s just been through a divorce and his Dad just recently passed away. Give the man a break. I’m sure it’s not because of Denise Richards.

I would love to see Richie & Heather get back together. I think this rehab thing has been coming since he & Heather split. I am very glad to see Denise gone, she couldn’t hold a candle to Heather

I have to applaud Richie for seeking help in the wake of seeing his wife of more than a decade leave with his young daughter then within a year — he loses his father after a lengthy battle with cancer, his divorce became finalized, and he broke up with his girlfriend ALL within ONE MONTH!! YOU try handling that with a camera shoved in your face! Maybe he could use a few more people offering a prayer of support as he tries to pull his life back together than more folks raking him over the coals for getting help, eh?

Poor Richie — I had a feeling everything would catch up to him eventually. This has been a really hard year for him (and it’s only June)… hopefully he’ll be able to get past this hurdle and continue to be an active Bon Jovi member and a good father to his daughter. He’s lucky to have a strong support network behind him.

Besides, everyone has an off day (night) now and then, it’s good that he’s taking responsibility for this now instead of letting things get worse and doing irreparable damage to both his child and his music…

Keep fighting Rich, you’ll get through this…
