Did she go under another name on Celebrity Rehab? I seem to recall that but can't remember which one she was.

That was her name on VH1's Celebrity Rehab. To refresh your memory:

Not the way she wanted to make the news I'm pretty sure. yuck. Hopefully she'll get the help she needs to have a better life.

Here is another example of the willingness of Hollywood "doctors" to "perscribe medication" at the whim of celebrity patients. When Tawny (or Julie) was involved in a divorce with Chuck Finley, this document cataloguing drug purchases from various pharnacies. It's startling:

Thanks - now I know where the name thing came in - she said on the first day of school she called herself Tawny and that's what she's been ever since.

I liked her on Celebrity Rehab too. Have you seen her mug shot. I think I saw it on Eonline website. She is laughing and looks quite high. There is nothing funny about driving while impaired. Only the by the grace of God was her life and the lives' of others spared.

She had trouble accepting separation from people who party and drink and do drugs. Remember how almost all of the house members went to a nightclub the first or second night they were in the house! That was crazy! The counselors there don't really stress it either. I don't understand why they think they are so strong that they can continue to party with people who drink and do drugs, yet stay sober. It really is odd to me.

I will say that my patience for people who drink and drive has gone to zero. If you can't stop drinking then so be it, but you DO NOT have to drive. If you can't keep yourself from behind the wheel after drinking, then sell your car and only walk or take buses or cabs. That is the measure that must be taken if you cannot control your drink/drive habit.

Recently, my community has lost several wonderful, talented, and loving people due to arrogant drunk drivers who fly down the highway and kill them. It is unacceptable.

Thank God Tawny didn't kill someone, but she could have.

I didn't know she had kids. On the show (Celebrity Rehab and Sober House) they just talked about her and her mother. Are her kids small?

Never mind about the mug shot. (See previous post above) I just saw a different one on perezhilton.com and it looked different. Perhaps the other one with her laughing was from a previous arrest.
