Sebastian Bach has dismissed as false media reports that he is scheduled to appear on the next season of
"Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew", the
VH1 reality television show that features several celebrities as they undergo treatment for various drug and alcohol addictions. The "celebrities" are treated by
Dr. Drew Pinsky and his staff, including
Bob Forrest.
A report surfaced earlier this week on the
PerezHilton.com and
New York Post web sites linking
Bach to the project, which is set to begin filming the second week of June. Other "celebrities" that were rumored to be taking part in the show included pop singer
Aaron Carter, basketball star
Dennis Rodman and former madam
Heidi Fleiss.
When asked if the reports of him being involved in the next season of
"Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" were true,
Bach told
BLABBERMOUTH.NET earlier today (May 16), "[those reports are] 100 percent wrong. I am not doing that show."
As previously reported,
Sebastian Bach will vie for the top prize on
CMT's
"Gone Country 2", the follow-up to the network's highest rated series ever. Also scheduled to appear are
Grammy and
Academy Award winner
Irene Cara,
"American Idol" finalist
Mikalah Gordon, singer
Jermaine Jackson,
NSYNC's
Chris Kirkpatrick, actor
Lorenzo Lamas and actress
Sean Young.
John Rich returns as host and judge of the show, which is currently filming in Nashville and which will begin airing in August.
As with the first season, the show will immerse the celebrities in all things country for a chance to break out as a country star.
The first season of
"Gone Country", which ended March 7 with
Julio Iglesias Jr. named the winner, featured
TWISTED SISTER's
Dee Snider as one of the participants. The show became
CMT's highest-rated series ever, averaging 769,000 total viewers.
