We all know that Stone Temple Pilot frontman Scott Weiland has been battling addiction problems for years. But did you know that his model-wife Mary Forsberg Weiland was right down in the gutter with him? In her new memoir, “Fall to Pieces: A Memoir of Drugs, Rock ‘n’ Roll, and Mental Illness” Mary says they were both so addicted to heroin that they showed up to a Fourth of July party at Leonardo DiCaprio house wearing long sleeves – to hide the track marks.
Mary first met Scott when he was hired by her agency to ferry her to and from modeling gigs for $8 an hour. The couple, now separated, had a tumultuous relationship to say the least.

* On setting fire to Scott’s designer clothes after an argument in March of 2007 — which led to Mary’s diagnosis of bipolar disorder: “The bonfire was huge and very pretty. Everything went up in smoke quickly, except the shoe leather; the Guccis took the longest,” she writes. “The news reports said I’d torched $10,000 worth of Scott’s clothes, which was wrong by a factor of eight. He was somewhat insulted at their estimate: ‘Eighty thousand dollars, Mary,’ he said later.”
* On doing heroin with Scott: “Scott would bring me a framed Neil Zlozower photograph of Keith Richards; I’d lay out the goods right on top of Keith.”
* On attending a party at the Playboy Mansion with Scott: “I had no clue till much later that Scott’s time in the bathroom was spent with a crack pipe in his mouth.”
* On being asked out by Pauly Shore when she was a 16-year-old model: “I managed to get so drunk at the Roxbury that when Pauly suggested it was time to call it a night, I couldn’t tell him where I lived. Did not have a purse; did not have any money . . . Mr. Shore then proved himself to be a complete gentleman (I think this may come as a shock to some people). He took me to his house, settled me into a room by myself, set the clock, and made me take an aspirin and drink a lot of water.”
The book goes on sale Nov. 10.
