David Hasselhoff Released From Psychiatric HoldPosted on: November 30, 2009 | Comments Off
The Hoff’s out of lockdown. After suffering a reported alcohol-related seizure on Friday night, America’s Got Talent judge David Hasselhoff was being held under a 5150/5151 psychiatric hold at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in LA. Radaronline.com reports he was released on Sunday around 3pm. Hoff has just come off a “several-day-bender” on booze when he began seizing and had to be rushed to the hospital…for the 345 time. I don’t know if I should feel sad for him for being an incurable alcoholic, or amazed at his superhuman durability.
Mischa Barton Under Psychiatric HoldPosted on: July 16, 2009 | Comments Off
You knew it was coming. The extreme weight loss, the inability to keep a job, the drug rumors….Mischa Barton is the latest Hollywood Hot Mess. Not only was a 911 call placed from her home last night and she had to “removed” …she has now been placed under an involuntary psychiatric hold, also known as a 5150, by the LAPD. Access Hollywood reports that she was then transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. According to the code, authorities can hold a person involuntarily if they present a danger to themselves or others, are gravely disabled or suffer from a mental disorder. As you may recall, this same code was used to hold Britney Spears two different times in January 2008.
