Does anyone actually think we believe this stuff?

First, Kirsten Dunst tried convincing us her rehab stint was solely about depression. (Word has it - Cirque doesn’t even offer treatment for that.) Now Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler would like us to think he’s seeking help for bad feet. Seriously.

While his reps did manage to confirm their client was away recovering, they blame his on-stage - not off-stage - antics for the excursion. Supposedly years of athletic movements have done a bit of damage to the 60-year-old rocker’s soles. After a series of painful surgeries, the musician for some reason then chose to rest in a rehab facility. Via a statement, Steven said, “I really needed a safe environment to recuperate where I could shut off my phone and get back on my feet.”

So is his home not a ‘safe’ place? Is he unable to turn off his ringer anywhere else? Was there not a groupie willing to help him?
