Country star Joe Nichols is getting treatment for a longtime substance abuse problem. "As Joe has alluded to in interviews over the past year, he has struggled with the issue of substance abuse," a posting on his Web site by Nichols' management team reads. "In order to become a healthier person and deal with long standing issues, he has entered into a rehabilitation program for consultation and treatment."This announcement comes just one month after Nichols married his girlfriend of 12 years. The couple honeymooned in Florida before the singer hit the road to promote his new album, 'Real Things.' He canceled a concert Saturday in Waco, Texas, so that he could begin his treatment.

Nothing? Zip, nilch, nada? Nobody cares that this hunk is going into rehab? I mean, the story broke 3 hours ago, and NOBODY CARES???
Of course... I really don't care either, or I might have posted sooner, I guess.
Ah, well, good luck, Joe.

Country Star? What does it take to be listed as a "country" star these days? Never heard of him. 'Course, I'm a little old fashion (and out of style). Annother one hit wonder? Nonetheless, regardless of Joe's status, everyone should have support for rehab.....
