David Duchovny enters rehab for sex addiction

ABC News in the US is reporting that actor and star of Californication David Duchovny has voluntarly entered rehab for "sex addiction". The former X-Files and Red Shoe Diaries star is married to actress Tea Leoni, who has starred in A League Of Their Own, Jurassic Park 3 and Fun With Dick And Jane, and has two kids.

Usually, these kinds of moves are a pre-emptive strike against a bad story coming out in the press. However, this could simply be a case of life imitating art, as in Californication, Duchovny plays a sex-mad writer. Perhaps he's having difficulty getting out of character. Either way, we'll have to wait and see what news breaks on this front.

Can't say I'm overly interested in the story though. However it is interesting, because David Duchovny has not had a major history of entering rehab, unlike some Hollywood starlets that could be mentioned.
