Whether we liked it or not, we all saw the footage of a thoroughly sloshed Verne Mini-Me Troyer naked and drunk-driving his motorized scooter through the halls of the Surreal Life 4 house. VH1 seems to think there is big money to be made with a 2 8 man completely hammered off one glass of champagne. So it should come as no surprise that Troyer, 37, entered rehab (again) to treat alcoholism. According to his manager,
Alcoholism is an illness that comes and goes and Verne realised he was slipping.
Perhaps his local bar had a special booster-seat, just for him.
This past November the Austin Powers star was admitted to the Jim Gilmore Jr. Community Health Center in Kalamazoo, Michigan but has reportedly checked out this week and will continue battling the bottle by following an out-patient therapy program.
