NEW YORK - Jonathan Rhys Meyers, who plays King Henry VIII in Showtime Network Inc.'s miniseries "The Tudors," has entered rehab for alcohol abuse.Because he has model looks, he is more valuable than other people in rehab and we need to know about it.
"After a nonstop succession of filming, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has entered an alcohol treatment program," his publicist, Meredith O'Sullivan, said Wednesday in a statement to The Associated Press. "He felt a break was needed to maintain his recovery. Jonathan plans to resume his schedule following completion."
No further details were provided.
I can see where being paid astronomical amounts of money and being forced to endure a "nonstop succession of filming" would cause somebody to drink excessively.

Been trying to remember what he reminds me of...

He also played Elvis in a tv miniseries a few years back -- so I guess that makes him twice a king.
Hah! He does look like Zoolander.
