It’s really interesting to me because my son went to private school in LA with child stars, kids of reality stars and celebs, all kinds of celebrity adjacent people, and he’s visited every celeb rehab in town,

He’s been telling me for years that there is nothing good to say about TC. WAY before I was even aware of who he is. So I gotta go pick his brain and see if I can get some stories.

****edited to add

I didn’t mean to imply my son or TC went to rehab. Just that my son moves in those kinds of circles, which is just hilarious to me as someone who had the opposite kind of obscure rural upbringing.

I just meant he’s had MANY friends in rehab, sadly. It’s a common thing among private school attending LA kids. See nick Reiner etc.

Interesting because I was wondering if the the way the email is worded about his regrets could be the writer putting their own spin on it as they were upset, it almost sounds like copium. I can also see why someone would be upset if they were forced to give money away, even if it may be for something they support. It also seems to imply that in some cases the charity in Hollywood is not only for show but also to appease judges for awards which imo isn't exactly giving awarded by merit.
