There was a deja vu moment when I read this story about Chet Haze, son of Tom Hanks, completing a stint in rehab for coke. Like, didn’t he just get out of rehab for coke? Yes, yes he did. Almost around the same time last year.

Chet explained in a few Instagram videos (again!) that he finally dragged himself out of a coked out downward spiral.
Hanks says, “I just really had to take a look at myself and my life and the way s–t was going and all the crazy stupid s–t I was doing and just finally admit to myself that it wasn’t working.”
He added: “A couple months ago I was selling coke, doing coke until I couldn’t even snort it up my nose anymore because it was so clogged. I even smoked crack. It’s been a long journey discovering who I am because all the pressures that I’ve dealt with in my life — you know, being the son of my dad and everything.”
Such pressure being the son of a famous person. Us plebs without a trust fund wouldn’t understand. Mostly because we can’t afford a cocaine addiction. You know how much that stuff costs these days? I can barely maintain a caffeine addiction much less buy an eight ball.
Chet also apologized for using the n-word and arguing that he should get a pass. Rightfully so. There’s no way a dude this white and privileged will ever be given an n-word pass.
