THE producers of Big Brother are planning to lock up celebrity drug addicts in a new shock TV reality show. Endemol will film a group of addicts 24 hours a day as they fight to kick the habit in rehabilitation. Kate Moss’s boyfriend Pete Doherty, who has battled heroin and crack cocaine, is among the stars approached to take part in Rock Stars in Rehab. Others tipped to move into the Big Brother-style house include ex-Celeb BB contestant Donny Tourette, who was filmed snorting cocaine during a fly-on-the-wall series about his band The Towers of London, and Dominic Masters singer in rock group The Others, who is addicted to crack. An insider said: "It’s going to be like Spinal Tap meets The Priory. The plan is to put a group of well-known faces with very public drug problems into a rehab and just let the cameras run. "It will be touted as a serious social experiment. But Endemol are using drug problems as entertainment and treating addiction like a joke. "It will push the boundaries to make money. If addicts want to get off drugs they really need support and medical supervision – not cameras pushed in their faces."

That is sick. I would watch, but that is sick.
