Following last weekend's nonstop party and subsequent blacklisting from the Mondrian hotel, 'Desperate Housewives' Jesse Metcalfe has checked into rehab. Apparently Metcalfe had been on a week and a half long drinking binge.

His reps confirmed the rehab stint by sending out the following statement:

"On Monday, March 19, Jesse Metcalfe entered a rehab facility to deal with alcohol issues. He realized he had a problem and was anxious to deal with it immediately. The actor, best known as the hunky gardener on the ABC show 'Desperate Housewives' and the star of the film 'John Tucker Must Die,' hopes that the media will allow him the privacy to deal properly with his treatment."

I hope he does actually get help if he needs it, because I'm getting so tired of all these actors checking into rehab as a publicity stunt or blanket apology to the public.
