We might not be Hollywood or New York, but we get our fair share of juicy celebrity news here in Tampa. Of course, the caliber of celebrity is decidedly sub par. Hulk Hogan and Jessica Sierra merit big headlines around here.

The big news today is that American Idol loser Jessica Sierra will be headed to a substance abuse treatment program in California instead of remaining in jail here in Florida. I’m not sure about you, but it kind of sounds like she was handed a vacation in light of what she might have received.

VH1’s Dr. Drew Pinsky (former Loveline gab host) begged the judge to allow Sierra to go to a treatment center instead of prison. Circuit Judge Daniel Perry said he was reluctant, but in the end he granted the request. Sierra also ended up with her probation extended to 24 more months, to commence after she finishes her year of “treatment” at the Pasadena Recovery Center.

This should all boil down to excellent publicity for both Sierra and Pinsky, since Sierra will appear on this Thursday’s debut of Celebrity Rehab on VH1. The show is hosted by Pinsky. Imagine that.

Sierra’s dad, Joseph, confirmed the rumors that his daughter is pregnant.

Sierra is somehow holding onto that tiny bit of notoriety she gained by being on American Idol, even if it is of the humiliating variety. All I know is that my past stories on Sierra have generated an astonishing amount of traffic from people typing “vomit sex” into search engines. *shudder*
