Another celebrity with significant drug and alcohol issues stretching back years and years, comedian Andy Dick (his real name, we promise) distinguishes himself by incorporating sexual molestation and public indecency into his repertoire. This isnt some one off occurrence, either Dick has form for these offences that stretches back to 2004, when he was arrested for mooning a McDonalds (the restaurant, not the meal). The patterns repeated itself every few years since then: gets loaded, drops his trousers and/or grabs at someone in public, rinse, condition, repeat. Hes an equal opportunity junkie pervert, too hell assault anyone, male or female. One of the most recent of these altercations saw him stalk porn star Tera Patrick and drag queen Chi Chi LaRue at the AVN Awards (the adult industrys version of the Oscars). And then theres the kicker the rumour is that Dick may have been responsible for reintroducing Brynn Hartman (addict wife of beloved comic actor Phil Hartman, Dick's costar on NewsRadio) to cocaine, which in turn caused her to go off the deep end and murder her husband and then kill herself on the night of 27th May 1998. Fellow comic Jon Lovitz certainly thought so. A decade after the murder-suicide, Dick drunkenly accosted him at a restaurant and said, I put the Phil Hartman hex on you. Youre the next one to die. Encountering him again a few months later, Lovitz beat Dick to a pulp. Wondering how he avoided being charged for the assault? Because they couldnt find anyone who could blame him for it.
