63. I'll take Door #2, Bob.

He doesn't seem the rehab type. Some people you figure might be troubled and could be better people without drugs, but I think he's a narcissistic asshole whose delusions of grandeur make him think everyone is against him the way they were against Jesus.

In this day and age most celebs (and he does have a TV show, however small and creepy) have agents and lawyers and publicists who speak on their behalf when they say stupid stuff. You never see that with him. Either he thinks he's too precious to let them or they won't touch him with a ten foot pole.
