Andy Dick has a long history of substance abuse. Back in 2012, the actor and comedian confirmed that he had been in and out of rehab around 10 times. “I would always say that I didn’t have a problem with drugs and alcohol,” he told Vice back then, “But I would drink when I was happy, when I was sad, when I was anxious.” He added, “Without drugs or alcohol, I was depressed, frustrated, angry.”
He has also been previously convicted of drug-related offences.
Andy Dick is best known for several Comedy Central Roasts. However, he has also made multiple appearances on film and television. His credits include The Cable Guy, Road Trip, Zoolander, Freaky Deaky, Johnny Bravo, Batman Beyond, and Family Guy, among others.
