Actress Tawny Kitaen, best known as the star of a series of 1980s heavy metal videos, has entered a drug rehabilitation program to resolve cocaine possession charges, her lawyer said on Monday. Kitaen, 45, was facing a possible three years in prison on the felony charge of possessing 15 grams of cocaine but entered a six-month drug rehab program last week, lawyer Blair Berk told reporters. Kitaen appeared in Orange County Superior Court last week, ahead of Monday’s scheduled arraignment, and won a "deferred entry of judgment," Berk said. If she fails to comply with the terms of agreement she could be automatically convicted. Prosecutors have said police were summoned in May to the home Kitaen shares with her two children in San Juan Capistrano, California, and discovered 15 grams of cocaine.

Six months? Dang that is a long time!
Maybe Pete Doherty could get clean if he did 6 months in rehab like her as compared to six days.
