Steve-O, a recovering drug and alcohol addict, was the most recent celebrity to get the boot from Dancing With the Stars, but he says his time on the show really helped him.
“I met a lot of challenges, I made a lot of mistakes and the fans kept me around long enough to learn from it all,” said Steve-O. “It’s forced me to grow as a person and for that I’m very grateful.”
Everyone is really sad to see him go too!
His partner, Lacey Schwimmer told Usmagazine.com that it’s his “unpredictable personality” she’ll miss the most.
“Every day you go in there, and he’s just a different personality, and you’re like, ‘Alright! What are we gonna do today? We had such a blast.”
Dancer Mark Ballas will also miss having him around. “Having him backstage and around just really made everyone happy and kept us laughing,” he told Us. “To see him go really sucks.”
The new Dancing with the Stars cast has been revealed and it’s an interesting lineup of D-listers.
Some shockers include Jewel and Lil Kim. And not only were we surprised that Jewel was selected but also her husband Ty Murray who is a rodeo star, whatever that means.
And they’re not the only couple who will be gracing the show — Julianne Hough has been partnered up with her boyfriend and country singer Chuck Wicks.
Other dancers include Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson, actress Denise Richards, former NFL player Lawrence Taylor, Jackass star Steve-O, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, actors David Alan Grier and Gilles Marini and washed up pop star Belinda Carlisle.
The Boots Girls can’t wait to see some of them make Jackasses of themselves!

Uh Oh, Steve-O!
July 7th, 2008
America’s favorite Jackass is back in the nut house.
Steve-O dished on last week explaining that even though he’s been clean for 115 days he’s checked himself into a mental institution.
Here’s what Steve-O had to say:
“Hello Everyone,
After seeing Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Addiction Special on VH1 News, I figured it was time to put something out there for you all. I expected my part on that show to be much harder to watch than it wound up being. It made me want to explain a little bit of what I’ve been going through since I got clean, to help some of you understand how much damage drugs and alcohol have really done to me. I’ve now been clean for 115 days, and I’m, again, in a mental institution.
“I did so much cocaine, ketamine, pcp, nitrous oxide, and all sorts of other drugs, that, quite simply, my brain is f*cked up. As you can probably tell by the way I’m writing this, my cognitive skills are alright, but, I frequently suffer from horrible mood swings and severe depression. Those of you who have followed my warped mind’s trail on the Internet for a significant amount of time have, I’m sure, been very aware of those attributes, but, I just want you all to know that four f*cking months (almost) of not touching a damn thing that a psychiatrist didn’t perscribe to me hasn’t changed that sh*t. The medication that is prescribed to me doesn’t do the trick every day, let’s just put it that way.
“I’m back in the looney bin trying to get that shit right. The bottom line is that doing drugs f*cked my ass up and I’m going to be paying for it for a long time, probably for the rest of my life. Everyone’s going to make their own decisions in life, but nobody needs to make the same mistakes I made. I love you all,
“Steve-O”
Kids, take Steve-O’s warning to heart…just say no!
The Boots Girls were on the scene last night for the Maxim Hot 100 party in Los Angeles and here’s the scoop:
The Hills stars Lauren Conrad, Audrina Patridge, Lauren “Lo” Bosworth and Stephanie Pratt all hung out. Conrad and Pratt seemed close, chatting and dancing together throughout the night.
LC left the event with Stephen Colletti who was hiding in a hooded sweatshirt. Last time we met up with Colletti he assured us that he and Conrad weren’t dating and they never have. Maybe things have changed?
Nick Lachey was there sans girlfriend Vanessa Manillo, and it showed. He talked and flirted with many other women while enjoying himself at the party.
K-Fed showed up to the event with an entourage, including a big bodyguard. Federline walked around with an attitude and was too cool to talk with certain people.
Steve-O showed up sober! The Jackass bad boy told us it’s been 72 days that he’s been sober and this was the first time he has been out. He looked a lot better than last time we saw him and was really nice!
Jackass star Steve-O has been hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on “suicide watch” and has also been charged by the L.A. County District Attorney with felony possession of cocaine, according to Star magazine.
The Boots Girls could’ve called this one after we recently hung out with Steve-O.
Here’s video of Steve-O talking about getting “wasted” at Enclave the night we were with him. It’s no wonder he’s in bad shape, his job is to make nightclub appearances totally bombed!
Being rushed to the hospital seems to be more trendy in Hollywood than rehab these days. We hope Steve-O gets better soon!
The Boots Girls caught up with the Jackass star Saturday night at Enclave nightclub in Chicago. Here’s a few of the highlights of our chat with him.
On Britney Spears dating a paparazzo:
“Go easy on Britney Spears. They’ve already quoted me saying go easy on her. Everyone’s so interested in everybody else’s misery. I think they should just learn that it’s their own misery that’s making them so f***ing interested. She’s got a f***ing hit album and she’s a musician so let’s give her some props.”
On Mel Gibson:
“If you want me to hate on someone let’s start with Mel Gibson. I think it’s fu***ing disgusting that everyone waited to get grumpy with him for after his DUI incident, when he subscribes to a f***ing church that doesn’t recognize the holocaust of the God damn Jews. If you ask Mel Gibson do you believe if there was a holocuast of the Jews by the Nazis he would tell you that it is propaganda, that it didn’t exist, and he won’t recognize it.”
On reports Lindsay Lohan made out with three men in 24 hours recently in Italy:
“Show me the footage. You’re not going to get me mad for that. Lindsay’s Lohan is an intelligent person despite the fact I told her not to f***ing drive. I told her there’s no reason to drive.”
On Nicole Richie giving birth to a baby girl:
“Did she have the girl? Thank you for letting me include her in my new DVD Paparazzi Stuntmant.”
We couldn’t help but notice Steve-O’s nose was all stuffed up! Can someone get this man a tissue?
America’s favorite prankster’s behavior was even too much for a roast, where normally anything goes.
Steve-O didn’t even make it a half hour before he got the boot at a roast for Gene Simmons Tuesday night at the Key Club in West Hollywood, according to our L.A. sources
Sitting among other roasters Carrot Top, Danny Bonaduce and other raunchy comedians on stage, Steve-O must have not had time to hit the john before the taping started. So naturally, he dumped his beer out on stage and pissed in it….TWICE!
He must have just gotten a warning at first, but after funnyman Jeffrey Ross cracked that “Steve-O could sell his boogers for a hundred dollars a gram” he got peeved and did it again!
That’s when he was asked to leave. Our spies knew there was going to be trouble when they saw him getting sloshed at the Rainbow, next door, before the taping. LOL! Stay tuned to see if this roast footage makes the cut when it airs on A&E!
