Cameron Douglas Blaming His Father - Lame!
Give us a break, kid! We know celebrity children can have effed up lives, but they can also lead drug-free ones, too!
Cameron Douglas and his lawyers are saying that he should be granted bail by blaming his father Michael Douglas' fame as the reason for his drug use!
Cameron's defense lawyers said:
"(Douglas') serious heroin addiction (stems from) notoriety that is not due to any acts of his own but by dint of birth and a difficult upbringing."
"He didn't benefit from his celebrity. He was hurt by it in a variety of ways, including ways in this case."
Even the guy's shrink is getting in on these BS defense claims! Dr. Robert Millman told the court:
"He has been sort of a reckless person since he was really young, endangering himself constantly. Not violent, just screwing up in every way - car accidents, motorcycle accidents, tattoos. I think a lot of it had to do with who his parents are."
Yeah, it must have been SO hard to grow up with money and privilege he just HAD to turn to drugs!
The judge refused to grant bail for fear he would relapse and we think he made the right choice — Cameron needs to face the consequences and own up to HIS mistakes!

So Jon Cryer's Wife Doesn't Want Him Died?
oh poor him, are we suppose to feel sorry for him? that dead beat dad of his is to blame, how he suffered growing up.
The Court should let his Step Mother take care of him. Cathy wou8ld drop him off in Amsterdam with $10K, best wishes and never give him a second thought.
perez it isnt lame that he is blaming his father….what is lame is that you wrote an article on this and that i replied
Dude no one went around saying you're Mike's boy, unless it was you looking for some Z-list perks. Do the crime do the time!!
backstreetboysarethebest, perez did not write an article. He cut and paste it from another source and then added some stupid comments. He is blaming his father to try and get off or for reduced time. But these celebrity kids are so stupid and selfish it blows my mind. They just do not know how wonderful they had it.
While I don't condone what he did, in a way its understandable. Some kids from wealthy backgrounds don't develop coping skills that are necessary in life the way that normal people do.
They both deserve blame….
old news….. but why wouldn't he blame them? look at all the lawsuits in this country… the last 20 years, were the years of blaming someone else for what you did, what went wrong, etc. kid is fat, you are fat, sue mc donalds. you fall in between the space on a train, you sue the State, even if you are drunk, didn't look, because it is not your fault. the gov't should offer health care to EVERYONE, because not everone is a RESPONSIBLE PERSON who look for jobs that offer health care, not for the jobs that are the most fun. or doesn't take the option because they would rather use the extra few hundred on something other then healthcare.
Oh so since he got a tattoo, he's messing up? Yeah. I have an MBA, a great job and my own house, but I have 3 tats. I'm such a loser.
crybaby…
I don't think is michael douglas fault… He needs attention i guess
What…car accidents…tattoos…omg…..umm…people have accidents and tattoo arnt being violent…thats the dumbest thing ive read in a while….he is no different than knowone…whether you are rich or poor, take friggin responsibility for your dumbness….poor people have the crutch of saying…life was to ruff…i needed drugs to deal….rich kids hav the crutch…my parents were workaholics…waa…waa…noone forced it…..its rediculous!!
The fuckin son is HOT, HOT, HOT. I'd love to be the cellmate who's gonna get to slobber all over his cock & balls. MMmm mmm mmmm.
Re: KrystinMyrie – While I agree with your overall post, it gave me a headache. Education IS a good thing…
Not that it should be an excuse, but it sounds to me like a classic case of 'look at me' accidents. Kids with busy/distant parents often do fall into a pattern of dangerous behavior in their quest for attention.
I know people without any parents who turned out perfectly fine — and their childhoods SUCKED but they didn't blame anyone for it. Cameron is a spoiled brat who was never held accountable for his actions so if dad Michael is guilty of anything, he is guilty of letting the little SHIT get away with everything.
It is possible that his dad chose to chase skirts rather than nurture his first born. Nothing admirable about MD.
What a fucking joke! What about all the people who grew up in poverty with a history of trauma?!? Those people go in and out of jail when they have a drug problem and they get no mercy. Put this piece of shit spoiled kid in prison where he belongs! I don't feel sorry for this mother fucker at all.
Exactly what's wrong with the world today–no accountability or willingness to take responsibility for one's actions. Everyone plays the Blame Game.
Cry me a river!

Please learn to spell and if that is beyond your capacities use spellcheck!
He wasn't exactly a celebrity himself. Idiot.
Re: marymeass – yeah really POOR HIM ! HOW ABOUT POOR ME MOTHER FUCKAS! LOL!
Re: Andy27 – YOU NEED HELP YOU POST THIS SHIT ALL OVER EVERY BLOG YOU READ! ALSO YOU LOOK EXACTLY LIKE THIS GREEK KID HARRY I WENT TO SCHOOL WITH? HARRY IS THAT YOU?!? ROFLAMO!
are some ppl still in the train of thought that tattoos = bad person? thats sucky
Take responsibility, kid… you're a man and need to stop playing playing a victim. Take control of your OWN life, y
TATTOOS?! OH NO!! Say it isn't SO!!
So sad Perez. You and everyone else here sure know how to protect the wicked. Cameron acting out at a young age is BECAUSE he had absolutely no foundation and was crying out for help. Did he get it? Well, look at his mess now. No, he didn't. His parents knew how to take care of themselves and were totally indifferent to the innocent life they brought forth. Yes, Cameron, may God Bless you and may Justice be Done for you. You did the crime and you're doing the time. But what about those responsible for the forming of this?!!!!! Nothing. Just disgusting how this world works.
Someone better get this little bitch some help before he kills himself as well.

I think a lot of older kids think their parents should be “` bank rolling them and taking care of their crap!! What they really need to do is ““` grow up and go make it on their own accord!!
What about all the other fucked up drug addicts who had shitty childhoods or even those who didn't, but don't have famous parents? At one point you have to stop passing the buck. Did his father get him addicted to any of those drugs personally?
Re: Suzysu – Do you own a dictionary? dint (dnt) n. 1. Force or effort; power: succeeded by dint of hard work. 2. A dent. *rolls eyes*
Nick Hogan's wreckless driving and subsequent car wreck and paralysis of John Garziano was Hulk Hogan's fault too. And it was Chris Brown's step father's fault that Chris beat Rhianna. And it was Sarah Palin's fault that Bristol got pregnant!
BULLSHIT! LOTS of people had two shitty parents, were poor or didn't have enough and had lots of emotional problems and dealt with it w/o therapists. And still made the best outta their lives. YOU MOTHER FUCKER only had to do well in school, never had to worry about money for school, lived in a good neighborhood , had acess to therapist and what not and still fucked up!!!!! Im sorry, I know money doesn't by happiness but if I had emotional problems cuz my dad sucked, I'd get a therapist deal with it do well in school and say fuck you to my dad and moved on with my life.
Buddy needs to man-up and realize he's a junkie because HE likes the shit, and do his time like a big boy. Fucking cry-baby.
Thats so ridiculous. Michael Douglas had a famous father and look at how he turned out. What a little bitch!
I wonder if young Cameron wanted some attention and love from his parents?
Tatoos?
Respectfully Mr. Perez,
You and your readers are too young to remember that his father Michael went into rehab late in his twenties because he had severe unresolved hangups about his being the son of the infamous Kirk Douglas. Like father like son. But if you went to your 50-something year old Dad's house to visit and he was married to Catherine Zeta-Jones and there were little kids running all around, wouldn't that suck for big old step bro'?
wealth and privilege don't make up for absentee parent(s) and lack of positive attention and disipline in your childhood. That screws up a lot of people for life. I'm not saying it is an excuse for bad behavior, just a reason.
the fact that his father is so important and they are so loaded Id say made him feel unimportant all at the same time that his parent no doubtedly expected him to achieve great things. Such an easy task.. I suppose subconsciencly him dealing drugs made him feel like someone important…
Wow Perez. I am impressed. Don't freak out but you actually had a conservative thought. Taking responsibility for your own actions. "Loves it"!
Perez.yo…not all of us have loving mums…or enough $$$ in high school to be a fottball player…AND….some kids who want for nothing materially, lack love.
we are all products of our environment. YES….it's Camerons' fault…yes, it's also M. D's fault…as he even admits….better to claim your faults SOMEHOW than to be in total denial…as most are.
perez has never been addicted to anything…cuz if he was he'd understand it's not the person, but the disease, that makes them blame their baby-daddys.
The excuse to continue the abuse……
Maybe he and Redmond O'Neal can shack up together in a cell.
SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE ADDICT
He's probably doing this so he can get any kind of attention from his dad. How he must be pissed that Michael now has a new little family to which he devotes the attention he never gave to Cameron.
what a crock of shit!!! Aww poor cameron, he was born into a house in which he probably had everything given to him, and a famous hollywood dad, so I am going to go out and do drugs, because life is so Effin tough!!! WTF ever, i was raised by a single mother, on welfare, in the projects, poo as shit, and quess what I ain't got no drug problem, and if I did it would be my fault!! Not anyone else's. His dad needs to Whup his Ass!!!
You got this one 100% right, Perezers!! Boo hoo, poor little rich kid–couldn't do anything but turn to drugs in his unfortunate situation!! GAG!
This is not some child - he is in his 30's. People need to take responsibility for their own actions and lives.
poor baby asswipe
BOOO FUCKIN HUU ASSHOLE, I DONT SEE STARVING PEOPLE FROM 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES WHO DO HAVE A FUCKED UP UPBRINGING SHOOTING UP. what a bitch!
Wait a minute….didn't Michael Douglas grow up as the child of a celebrity? He seemed to turn out okay………..
such total bullshit. yeah, maybe your daddy didn't love you enough but you got every single fucking financial advantage possible and i doubt you were ever left on your own with nobody to care for you. what a load of crap. and if his scumbag dad signs on to this idiot theory then he's just enabling you. "waaaah waaah waaaah!" here's how sorry i feel for you, cameron douglas, let's wall you up in a room with a pile of drugs and just let you finish yourself off since your life is SOOOO hard and you can't be expected to cope. we'll be ready with the bodybag when you are done. what a brat.
