Heather Locklear has been charged with driving under the influence of prescription drugs, following her September arrest in Santa Barbara two months after leaving an Arizona rehab facility for depression and anxiety.

Locklear, 47, had no alcohol or illegal drugs in her system at the time of arrest, but she has been charged because the medication she had taken, “could have impaired her ability to safely drive a motor vehicle,” Santa Barbara County Deputy District Attorney Lee Carter said. 

Heather is due to be arraigned in Santa Barbara on January 26th, and faces up to six months in jail if convicted. 

That’s not going to do much to help her with the whole depression/anxiety situation.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
