"Jackass" co-star Steve-O claims in his MySpace blog that his mom was an alcoholic, and that his parents gave him alcohol as a baby.
Steve-O, who was in “the loony bin,” updated his MySpace blog Thursday with a post entitled, “You Should All Know I Am In Rehab.”
He confesses the depths of his addiction and blames his parents bad judgement.
“Mom was very alcoholic, and I feel that is a gross understatement,” the 33-year-old explained. “I’d love to say that I first took to alcohol out of affection for my mother (there was never any shortage of that for me) but I think the truth is that I was always powerless over it. I know I was always powerless over alcoholism, because it had such a grip on Mom’s adulthood and my childhood, and I never chose to fight it. Until now.”
In a shocking revelation he says he pieced together from “vague memories of being told stories that are similar or exactly the same,” Steve-O claims that mom and dad even gave him booze as an baby.
“Dad was a corporate executive whose job required the family to travel the world fairly extensively, and both Mom and Dad were quite self-conscious of how they were perceived by others. We were frequently on airplanes and, before Mom and Dad would find themselves in the embarrassing position of being caught by other passengers with a crying baby, I was fed alcohol.”
Steve-O now insists that he’s committed to give up drugs and alcohol. He even alluded to the fact he may become a father:
“While I do have guilt issues related to past behavior, I am too excited about my future behavior and the prospect of becoming a healthy parent to let them remain an obstacle.”
