It's rehab for Sean Young...
Well, this is no shock.
When you go to a major industry event, where all the major directors and studio execs are, and make a drunken fool of yourself, it's time to get some professional help. Sean Young, once an A-list actress in such films as "Blade Runner" and "No Way Out" but has burned many a Hollywood bridge, has checked into rehab.
I was at the Directors Guild of America Awards Saturday night when Sean, 48, heckled "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" director Julian Schnabel during his acceptance speech causing him to stop and snap: "Who said that?" Then he said, "Have another drink darling." Schnabel almost walked off but collected himself to finish his remarks - but he was clearly upset. Sean was escorted out of the glitzy, but non-televised event, by security
A statement released by her rep stated that Sean had voluntarily checked herself into rehab: "It is understood that Young has struggled against the disease for many years."
What I wanna know is this: How did Sean Young get a table so close to the stage? I was near a back wall and wasn't even heckling anyone.
Sheesh.

He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.

I heard she was at Helen Hunt's table, whatever that means.
I have no idea what the true story is about Sean Young, but I must say she was a TRUE movie star during her moment in the sun. I can't help but wonder if the reason she came to "burn so many bridges" is because she wasn't willing to play by the rules designed by MEN IN SUITS, to which I say: KUDOS, darling!
