The deal with Hollywood types when they act out is that they go to rehab as sort of a way to salvage their reputations. If it looks like they have real medical issues, it may not seem as bad to cut off one's hair in public. So my question is, will Artie Lange be in rehab before the end of the week? He may not necessarily do it for his reputation (he doesn't seem to care what people think), but maybe this incident will finally open his eyes to the fact that he needs real help.

I hope that his mother and sister put some pressure on him, too, to get help. Unfortunately, I have a feeling his mother is the type of person that babies him and probably doesn't like to upset him. Hopefully his sister Stacie can have more of a matter-of-fact attitude with him. Since the people on the show have washed their hands of helping him, his mother and sister are his only hope.
