Seth Binzer, aka Shifty, the 37-year-old former lead singer for the band Crazy Town (hit single: "Butterfly") and repeated star of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew (seasons one and two) and Sober House (also seasons one and two) has reportedly fallen into a coma. He has been in the ICU of an LA hospital since last Thursday. Faithful Celebrity Rehab and Sober House viewers may remember him as the guy who smoked crack on the roof of the rehab during season two and later, on Sober House, sent his castmates videos while off on a relapse. Binzer was scheduled to appear in court later this month after a coke possession arrest in February. Adam Goldstein, better known as sober advocate and celebrity DJ DJ AM (who died of a drug overdose in September of 2009), was also a former member of Crazy Town.

This SoCal rehab fosters a regimented but respectful recovery environment, where teens learn how to live sober through plenty of 12-step meetings and life-skills classes—not to mention "equine-assisted psychotherapy" and mixed martial arts.
