"I'm taking Lexapro and you can't have alcohol with it, and I did. I forgot. That's just it in a nutshell really," the country music star told the East Valley Tribune on Tuesday, the day after his arrest in Phoenix. Campbell, 67, said he's been taking the medication to treat anxiety for the past seven or eight months. The singer, whose hits include =/album/?song=2852441&album=349966 class="art">"Rhinestone Cowboy," was arrested Monday at his home after a collision at a Phoenix intersection in which nobody was injured. A witness had followed the car, called police and directed them to the home, police said. While in custody, police said Campbell became angry and kneed an officer, who was not injured. The Delight, Ark., native was freed early Tuesday on $2,000 bail on charges of extreme drunken driving and hit and run. He also was arrested on suspicion of assaulting a police officer, but did not have to post bond for that count. Breath tests showed Campbell had a blood-alcohol level of 0.20, according to court documents. Extreme drunken driving applies when results are above 0.15 percent. The legal limit for Arizona drivers is 0.08 percent. The Grammy-winning singer has said previously he decided to quit using alcohol and drugs. He told The Arizona Republic that he "fell off the wagon" Monday. "I think that old wagon, if I fall off it again, it'll run me right over."

What often remains is nostalgia, taunting and the occasional pummeling in a celebrity boxing tournament. Some are bitter. Some have made peace with their pasts and found new successes. Others still seem a little dazed from the long-extinguished limelight. The Associated Press sat down to talk about the former child star phenomenon with Barry Williams (Greg on "The Brady Bunch"), Danny Bonaduce (Danny on "The Partridge Family"), Dustin Diamond (Screech from "Saved By the Bell"), Leif Garrett (teenage heartthrob singer of "I Was Made for Dancin'") and Corey Feldman (Mouth from "The Goonies.) All five play themselves as poker buddies in the new David Spade comedy "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star." AP: Do you feel like your childhoods were that weird? The whole point of 'Dickie Roberts' is that he's too messed up to function. Bonaduce: They weren't as weird as Dickie's, but they were weird. I was 10 and would get up to go to work and there would be 400 people in my front yard with signs — only because they couldn't find David Cassidy's house. (Laughter.) That's weird! Williams: The abnormalities come in with the kind of attention we had. Touring, making records, showing up at the set every day. You have publicity machines, you have agents ... AP: How do the fans treat you now? Diamond: You can't really go out to regular places and not get recognized and not get hassled. Bonaduce: Everybody recognizes me, but they don't care. Diamond: When I go to the movie theater, right when the lights go down people shout out 'Screeeech!' If someone notices me and wants to get an autograph or something else, usually they're loud about it. AP: What do you do? Sink down in your chair and wait for it to end? Diamond: Sometimes I'm a smart-ass about it. I try not to be, but sometimes it weighs on you. You're in a theater. 'What are you doing here?' 'I'm bowling.' What do they think I'm doing? I'm seeing a movie, I'm not shopping for groceries. Bonaduce: (To Diamond) You know what I do? I have this novel approach. When they come up to me, I say 'Thanks.' Diamond: That's because you were smoking crack. That's totally different. I have more dignity than that. (Note: Bonaduce was arrested for buying crack in 1990.) Bonaduce: (To Diamond) You were in one of the coolest movies. What was that movie with those two guys? 'Made.' (2001, with Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau.) You were in 'Made!' Diamond: Playing myself. Bonaduce: Hey, I've been every sitcom in America as a (stupid) version of me, with every transvestite joke and 'Partridge Family' joke you can think of. (Note: Bonaduce was arrested in 1986 for beating up a transvestite prostitute.) AP: Why have you all stayed in entertainment? A lot of people don't when they grow up. Garrett: A lot of them didn't want to in the first place. They were forced into it by their families. But I like being an entertainer. Bonaduce: I swear to God, I'm not joking: I just don't know how to do anything else. Feldman: I was doing it because it was what my parents told me I had to do. And by the time I was old enough to make a choice not to, everybody in the world knew who I was. So it was impossible to go work at Taco Bell. Bonaduce: Without fame, I'm just some 5-foot-6 guy with red hair and freckles. But with fame, I've had sex with some quality women. Williams: Mine was the opposite. I finally confronted my parents at 11, and I said, 'You are standing in the way of my destiny. I want in to this business.' They finally relented. Bonaduce: I was playing Atlantic City. I didn't do anything, but they put together this kind of song and comedy act — but I couldn't really sing and I wasn't particularly funny. My name was up in huge lights, huge ridiculous lights. And I turn around and my dad, for some reason had to take me, and before I can say anything he just clocks me. (Punches fist.) I said, 'Why?' And he said, 'Your name? Above Duke Ellington's?' AP: Imagine what Duke Ellington's dad would have done. Bonaduce: (Laughs) Yeah, Duke Ellington's dad beat his ass for getting billing below me! Williams: I can't imagine what that would do to your self-esteem at that age. Diamond: I'm not taking digs at anybody. There are people out there with wise advice, but they've been at points that are so low that I've managed to avoid. I'm proud that I've avoided these things. I've never been arrested. ... Feldman: Those kind of problems have nothing to do with show business. I can find you 20 kids right now on crystal meth in a trailer park ... Diamond: But how many of them can afford massive amounts of it and get away with it because of who they are? Because people will protect them? Because 'There's a lot of money on this film and we're not going to let our actors get busted?' It's hard to get busted by the cops when you're on a locked private set in your own dressing room with people pampering you. AP: How do you guys feel about making fun of your past? Williams: There's nothing meanspirited in ('Dickie Roberts.') In my opinion if I can't make fun of myself or have fun with the image and all that stuff, I'd be dead. Garrett: Just because we use our names, lend our names, that doesn't mean that that's us. It's like a caricature of us, in a certain way. Everything is a performance. AP: Do these things ever get meanspirited? Feldman: If you're going to make a joke, it better be funny. If it's stupid and demeaning, then it's just stupid and demeaning. Diamond: If you let people knock you down, and you just go for the quick buck, you might not work again. ... If all I do is Screech, then that's all I'll be known for ever. And I will never get another job except for Screech. You will never rise to the next level as a great actor. Feldman: Gary Coleman sums it up. The bottom line is, if you look at Gary Coleman (child star of 'Diff'rent Strokes' 1978-1986) and his career, forget about the governor thing for a minute, everything that guy has ever done is taking a shot at himself. Everything. Emannuel Lewis (child star of 'Webster' 1983-1987) has got the same things going against him, but he has got a great attitude. He's intelligent ... Bonaduce: So is Gary. Diamond: But Gary has a terrible attitude. Bonaduce: (To Diamond.) You know what? Here is where you and I separate. You consider yourself an actor. I was a cute kid. I was never an actor. I didn't know you were that serious. |
