Household Name and MTV Stuntman Steve-O to Speak at Pasadena Recovery Center

Steve-O’s on-camera antics with Johnny Knoxville and the Jackass crew have entertained audiences for the past 10 years and counting.  By 2006, Steve-O seemed to be struggling both personally and professionally.  He had a serious substance abuse problem and ended up getting arrested in 2008 for cocaine possession.  Steve-O avoided a jail sentence by entering rehabilitation.  By the following year, Steve-O had pulled himself together.  He shared the dark days of his addiction and his struggle for sobriety in the MTV documentary Steve-O: Demise and Rise, which aired in 2009.  Don’t miss this great opportunity to hear his story in person at Pasadena Recovery Center, Tuesday June 17th at noon.
